For exhibiting "Mad Genius" by finishing with the best bonus conversion, they recieved "Mad Genius: The Untold Story of the Unabomber" as well as "The Bell Curve." Brandeis earned several politically-themed books, including one by Lyndon LaRouche and "Ross Perot: In His Own Words" written by Harry Chiu. Top individual players earned such goodies as PS1 games, Tom Lehrer CDs, Enrique Iglesias cologne samples, and one particularly lucky QBer earned "Spider-man, Storm, and Cage Battle Smokescreen!", a joint venture of Marvel and the American Cancer Society. Thanks to Mike Hoey-Lukakis for his generous donation of a large selection of prizes, as well as to Mike, Steve Watchorn, and Mark and Sarah Coen for giving up their Saturday so that we could have high-quality moderators. We would also like to thank Mike Sorice, as well as the other editors of the question set and all of those who submitted questions for the tournament. We'll see some of you next weekend for TRASH regionals (11/12) and ACF Fall (11/13). Thanks. Nathan Bragg
