The Opening Round, Part II

The results are in for the First Four and the first half of our Opening Round, and the winning entries have moved on. There was some tough competition in this year's First Four. Fan-favorite "Watching someone fail who's giving maximum effort" put up a good fight, but ultimately faded down the stretch. Fans who came out early were delighted by the hard-fought First Four matchup between "Gray laminate wood flooring" and "More than two questions at the gas pump" with the latter taking a 78% victory to advance.

Tournament-goers were shocked by the early passings of "Workplace photo montages set to the song 'Takin' Care of Business'", "Chronically late significant others," "People who reply 'this'", and "Cummerbunds," all fan favorites that came to this year's tournament with high hopes. But the court of public opinion has spoken, and so these entries see their March dreams shattered in the Opening Round.
