On August 15, Waverly was buzzing with excitement as over a dozen Jenga experts gathered to test their skills.
We needed to make sure the playing fields were level within 1° of accuracy. Luckily, the Carpenter’s Level app for the Palm Pre made this easy.
A few of the players had already signed up for Tournology before showing up at the tournament. The rest of the competitors had to create accounts, and register for the tournament. We worked on several improvements to the signup process since our Pitch tournament, and it seemed to go much smoother than the last time.
Tensions were high as the first Jenga blocks were extracted from their nestled cocoons.
Like Icarus, some were too grand in their ambitions, and Jenga-ed a bit too hard. One could almost hear the melting of wings as blocks tumbled to the ground.
The competition was fierce, but friendly.
As the Final Countdown played in the background (looped is probably a more appropriate phrase), the contest came between John and Karli.
In the end, there could be Only One, and Karli ended up walking away with the grand prize.
Congratulations to everyone who participated, and thanks for helping beta test Tournology! You can see the results of both Round Robin groups here and here.
