Thanks for letting us know when the results will be out. We were just anxious about these results.

Wow, Harriton...

Did anyone else feel uncomfortable with the content of the Forensics test?

Aside from that, ~20% of the test was forensics related while the other 80% was trivia, some even about organic chemistry. The national forensics champions (Centerville) getting 17th doesn't really help, lol.

Yes.
<semi rant> Clearly that test was written with little knowledge of the rules and how that event is supposed to be run. I feel that it would be good if you have room on your notes sheet for finding random info, but that's about it. I understand why the content was so weird (it would be hard to run an actual lab in that setting), but it was distressing (at least for me) to have to know so much organic chem. </semi rant>

Apologize for the double post, but do we know which team wrote what test?
