Gryphon and Scott walk through 3 topics, all in the context of the Third Age of Quizzing.

Then Gryphon and Scott explore ideas for the best way to prepare for the International Open Championships (IOC), which looks at the practical implications of the philosophies that rendered the Third Age rules. And then finally, the two take inspiration from an odd event in basketball with regard to outside-of-play and outside-of-team penalties, their implications, and what the Third Age should strive for.

Second, the dynamic duo review the "preview version" of Third Age rule book, with Scott probing and asking questions and Gryphon providing background. Then finally, Scott and Gryphon discuss a handful of things they notice quizzers are doing (and have been doing for a while) that leads them to speculate that perhaps coaches aren't coaching these things. So the duo lists them and discusses them as nuggets of advice for quizzers. As always, email questions and comments to iq@cbqz.org and follow us on Twitter: @InsideQuizzing.

125 - Cartesian Grid Quizzing Theory and Appeal Aperture When System Designing 1:13:50

for 2 years siden1:13:50

1:13:50

Gryphon and Scott tackle 2 theoretical topics. First, Gryphon shares a "Cartesian Grid Quizzing Theory" whilst Scott translates out of nerd-speak into normal-human-speak. The theory revolves around the correlation between investment (i.e. memorization, study, and practice) and reward (i.e. scoring) in Quizzing, and how in designing the Third Age of Quizzing we might want to consider expanding the length of the line. Then Scott introduces the theory of when designing a new system, how the aperture of appeal of the system impacts the missional outcomes of the system.

Gryphon and Scott dive into Quizzing Theoretical Physics (again) by probing the extra-rule-book-ian concept of "quoting" versus "answering" when a quizzer is responding to a question. Far from staying focused on that initiating topic, the dynamic duo dig into related philosophical questions like, "Are we OK with poorly-written rules that are tribally maintained in a consistent and good way?" Although tribal custom may work in some cases, tribal custom is fraught with long-term costs to the health of Quizzing.

The dynamic duo takes umbrage at some points. Sunlight is the best disinfectant, and those that don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

The dynamic duo discuss these categories and how coaches can best coach these different types of quizzers. Categories include: older versus younger sibling quizzers, the "I'm just here for the food" quizzer, quizzers with great material knowledge but are super-cautious, quizzers with poor material knowledge and who throw caution to the wind, and quizzers who are brand new to quizzing.

Quizzing must be fun and engaging. We need to remove inconsistent and error-prone activity because it's unfair, and what is unfair is anti-mission. And Quizzing needs to grow.

Gryphon and Scott discuss 2 mostly philosophical questions: First, is it really the case that Bible Quizzing is the most effective discipleship program in modern western Christianity today? To answer that, the dynamic duo may have to wrestle with the notion of what "effective" means and how that can be objectively measured. Second, does a program, whether a Quiz program or not, Christian or not, become toxic necessarily (or has an increasing probability of becoming toxic) when its leaders act unilaterally, forcing their will across the program?
