First of all, please take a look at the standings above. You will notice that I have highlighted the top 10 teams in green. As mentioned previously, the "qualifiers" for the tournament of champions are subject to change and we made a change to include top 10 in points plus 2 wild card teams (up from top 8).
Second, and probably most important, I am going to restate the rules of competition again:
NO CELL PHONES, PDAs, PORTABLE INTERNET DEVICES, ETC... SHOULD BE USED IN ANY CAPACITY TO ASSIST IN ANSWERING TRIVIA QUESTIONS AT ANY TIME.
Please remember, while we there are prizes involved, the game is played first and foremost for fun. I really do not want to have to monitor teams and it seems most all are cooperating with the rules. However, I have noticed a few utilizing outside sources for answers. If I have reason to believe you are using electronic assistance, you will be disqualified for the week and ineligible for participation in the Tournament of Champions. As a note to all teams NOT using performance-enhancing devices, please do not hesitate to let me know if you suspect cheating - your comments will be kept confidential.
Okay, that's all my preaching for the day. We just want to keep this a fun and fair event.
Your new hints will be posted by tomorrow (hopefully tonight).
Thanks,
Jason

so, do laptops qualify as cheating? what about bringing in my Encyclopedia Britannica set circa 1992?
Encyclopedia Brittanica is acceptable only if they are the 1975 edition. Also, the only computers allowed are Commodore 64 and Vic 20.
