XII IIT Finals Photo Album
Finals Game #1
The calm before the storm.
...and they're off!
Jacob attacks into Eeyore's half-constructed fortress.
Pain sharing.
The monster fortress develops.
The prisoner exchange.
The initial (incorrect) Icehouse call by Jacob.
The second (correct, though fruitless) Icehouse call by Liam.
Time, and we were discussing how to drag Jacob down by a couple points.
Finals Game #2
Waiting for Godot.
Eeyore is already below the stash limit, and Jacob has only played two pieces.
Liam inadvertently over-ices Eeyore's 2-pointer.
Floss, er, rubber-band call.
Status of the game.
Most of the tape actually looks like this.
...and then when the smoke clears, Jacob has done some important things.
Dan has done some interesting things over here, too.
Jacob decides the time is running out.
Time runs out, and look at all those points on Eeyore's stash pad.
Finals Game #3
Jacob goofs for the camera.
Liam goofs for the camera and almost hair-crashes.
Y'know, I hate games that start like this.
It's like a game of twister.
Eeyore with the sneaky fortress.
Everybody leans back for a second.
Dan and Eeyore are played out.
Jacob, what's that near your neck?
That game ends before the timer, for once.
Superjudge John 'Dr. Cool' Cooper scores the game.
