California as a state has 2 bids in each division. Due to the size of the state, they choose to host two separate state tournaments where the winner advances, rather than a single tournament where the top two advance.Matholy wrote:Oh oof.
I just read the NoCal thread, Kennedy beat Churchill in the Churchill invy.
Why doesn't NoCal have 2 teams that go to nats?

Re: Way Too Early Predictions
Strange how everyone is picking at Unome's C predictions, but practically no one has disagreed with his B predictions.
"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:11-12
I have no regrets.

Re: Way Too Early Predictions
Not picking at them, just wondering what Unome has foreseen that I haven't.Tailsfan101 wrote:Strange how everyone is picking at Unome's C predictions, but practically no one has disagreed with his B predictions.

As for the B thing, it's because nobody cares about Division B Division B is less competitive and seems to have a little fewer users on here. Also, more experienced sciolyers are more likely to make predictions, and logically high schoolers usually have more experience.
