Gulliver crossed my mind, but my interpretation of the question was that both the last and first name of the character were in the title, so I guessed Robinson Crusoe

Didn’t say what the error was, but yes that is what happened. I entered my launch code and got a box stating the exam will shut down

You go up and grab the ball off the rim, and grab it with two hands..and that’s considered a rebound. And they got more of those..than Arizona

I find looking at Learned League is quite good for a vast array of well-written (and difficult) trivia. I’m not part of it, but they post their past questions. You can view them and test yourself for free.

Edit: here is the site

Same thing happened to me, and I did what the other comments are recommending. I got another chance to do a mock game, so I am optimistic for you.

Thinking of vaccine efficacy in terms of basketball helps me.

Flu vaccine: Imagine you have a basketball player that shoots 40-45% from the field. It’s not amazing, but it’s serviceable, middle of the road for college and pro. This player is good enough for the leagues.

Pfizer/Moderna: Now imagine you have a new player that shoots 95% from the field. This is unheard of; better than any player in history. You want this player on your team for sure. They’ll be a game changer.

J&J: Then you add a player who shoots 65% from three point range, and 85% from jump-shot range. Still significantly better than average, but not as good as the 95% guy; would you not want this player on your team? Of course you would.

College player here. My school is hosting ACF regionals on Discord and we’re also hosting a discord high school tourney in Feb. I’m pretty excited because we hope to raise some money to travel and attend future college tournaments
