Final Four: Tweet Yo-Self!
You stand in elite company, fam. And only one battle remains between you and the championship round. You’ve come a long way and gained a great deal of wisdom along the way. Now we’re asking you to share your wisdom with the person who needs it the most: your past self. Write a new, original tweet to yourself at any point in your past. What would you tell yourself if you could tell your past self anything (or, anything that fits in 280 characters)?
Submit your tweet by Tuesday the 20th 11:38am PST
Godspeed, you bloke umpires.

Round of 8

The Elite 8. 
The Great 8. 
Eight is Enough.
All right L8.

Whatever you call it, you 8 bosom buddies remain and everyone else is gone. You’re on the Polar Express to the finale, so don’t get Castaway. Forrest Gump. Philadelphia.

As you may have guessed, the topic for this round is Tom Hanks. Tweet about the man, his catalogue of work, or any individual movie or television show. 

Stipulations: No dialogue tweets involving Wilson the volleyball. Step it up, fam.

Due date: 2/14/2018 11:38am PST

Sweet 16 Round: Picture Tweets

Congratulations on making it to the Sweet 16! The championship trophy
is closer than it’s ever been. But in a few days, half of you will be
dead (figuratively).

If you participated or watched our last tournament, you know that that
the picture tweet round produced some of the funniest tweets of the
entire contest. We’re hoping the same thing happens this time. No
pressure.

Scroll down and take a look at the curated selection of photos below
this copy. Choose one, and post it with the test of your tweet. Your
tweet can be a caption for the picture, a story based on the picture,
dialogue for the scene in question, or a response or observation about
what you see.
