Team Glossary:

• Syracuse/Waterloo Ratio: When your total number of wins is equal to the number of 1 man teams you played at a given tournament. Coined after the 2000 NAQT ICT where the Div. I team posted a 4-10 record by defeating Waterloo (Ricardo) once and Syracuse (Andy Wang) thrice.
• New Haven Follies: 1. The actions of Andy on April 15, 2000, after Yale's BOB tournament. 2. Anytime one leaves their lights on, burning out their battery, gets a jump start, and then locks their keys in their newly revived, running car. This kind of behavior makes one thankful for their "Pocket Partner" (see BOB results entry above)
• Halley's Comet:  Coincendentally, the frequency of Halley's Comet is the same as the frequency at which Brandeis defeats Harvard A.  Last witnessed at Terrier Tussle XI (Mehrun, Anna, Ted vs. Vik, Sahir, Suzman; 140-70); projected to re-occur sometime in 2071.
• Hill Valley:  Hanover, New Hampshire, the home of Dartmouth College.  All that's missing is the Goldie Wilson for Mayor sign.
• ____ Pride (fill in name of state, e.g. "Jersey Pride," "Ohio Pride"): The form of hubris that ostensibly means that one should be able to answer any question relating to one's home state.  However, practically this is very often not the case.
• Hand Pow: Official gesture of Brandeis Quiz Bowl.
• Weird Answer Pride: BrUQB prides itself on getting the weird questions.  cf.  Loch Ness Monster, flesh-eating bacteria, and Esteban.
