Philadelphia Experiment 6 was held on the George Washington University Campus. 9 teams competed. 9 rounds of round-robin and 4 rounds of playoffs were held; in a final 14th round, Categorical Imperatives defeated Boys and Goys Together to win the title. Thanks are due for: Tim Young, who worked tirelessly on editing and preparing the tournament, then directed it in an equally unimpugnable fashion. Tim, more than anyone else, was responsible for the tournament happening as well as it did, spending almost every spare moment on readying the question sets, many of which were submitted far past deadline. Tom Chuck, Rick Grimes, and Hayden Hurst, who volunteer-moderated and calculated statistics; especially to Rick Grimes, who fixed three potential issues before they became critically problematic. Willie Chen, Mike Usher, Matt Bruce, David Farris, and Anthony de Jesus, whose external packets allowed the tournament to have playoffs at all; Richard Mason for coordinating that exchange. The Penn ADT, for letting us run the tournament when they could not. Packets are *not* available for sale. They are available for trade; submitting a packet for our upcoming high-school tournament in early October earns you a complete set of PE6 questions, 15 rounds, varying difficulty, mixed categorization, smooth, smooth flavor.
