Tournament 11 Hall of Fame

The Tournament 11 Hall of Fame lists all the past winners of Tournament 11 of the Write Your Own Pits Competition. This story begins in Round 1 with Wayne beginning an enigmatic experiment. I think I'll call this story "Act of Wayne".

This tournament was won by Jay and Shari Berryhill (for the second time running). As the rule is second time winners can't win a second shirt, and plus the fact that Karen Nimmons has come close to winning a shirt a number of times, we've decided to award the Pits shirt to Karen. See how many points the finalists accrued in the Points Board.

Round 1

The winning entry to the Tournament 11, Round 1 of the Write Your Own Pits Competition

13 January 98

Sev Note: An extremely clever (and extremely short, which I liked) set of punchlines from Bruce. A bonus 4 points were won by McCool for guessing the identity of the scientist on Herman's book (click on the comic strip to get a closer look). Here is an interesting account on how McCool guessed his identity: "I determined that it was about 1600 by the style of clothing that the guy was wearing (the frilly neck-ruffle thingy). I opened up my encylopedia cd, did a search on physicists circa 1600, and picked the one I thought it most likely to be. It was a toss between Kepler and Gallileo for a bit, until I saw a picture of Gallileo and he was bald and old." A lovely bit of detective work there!

Round 3

The winning entry to the Tournament 11, Round 3 of the Write Your Own Pits Competition

27 January 98

Sev Note: As ludicrous as this bomb sounds, this is an accurate description of a gunpowder experiment the real life Wayne performed while I was living in the same house. At least he had the sense to do it outside.
