Saturday Night Contest - Batter Up - November 1, 2008

[jprace]

Congratulations!

 

[Jack Webster]

The results are in, and here's the dizzle. We each had 3 practice swings, then 11 that counted. The original counts were 5 / 11 for each of us - which impressed us both given the fact that neither of us had held a bat in about a decade.

Nobody in this thread guessed 5 / 11 for both of us, though, and upon further analysis of the video, Andrei skimmed the ball on one of his swings - putting him just barely over the edge at 6/11. Andrei wins by 1, and sky_lark - you take home the prize!

Video will be posted within the next hour or so...

i was off by one also though

 

[jprace]

I think sky_lark guessed right on.

 

[Jack Webster]

[jimmah01]

[sky_lark]

Thanks everybody! I think the main reason I won was because I posted only a minute after Andrei made the thread.

Still, I'm thrilled!

Video is almost done. At the end of the video, we show Bryant (from t11 support) having a go at it. Just for fun - any prediction as to how many he hit? The number is astonishing.

 

[RyanOchs]

I bet he hit 10/11

 

[Ben Long]

Bryant: 0/11
