whoops, a little premature there.
Every
evening there is a tournament using one style of
questions. Teams are built by the strength of the players.
The best player generally gets a weaker team.
As for high schoolers playing in summer college
tournaments, very few would be able to do this successfully. I
went to the Chicago Open before my freshman year of
college, and got a few questions, but was pretty
overwhelmed. Plus, many states (Kansas and Missouri for sure)
do not allow that sort of competition before
garduation. I think over 300 kids attended last years camp,
if that many went to summer college tourneys, the
question difficulty would have to go way down. Nah, the
camp's good enough.
