Welcome to Team Yoshi Falls! It’s been a long week of reading through all the amazing pitches. Our wonderful readers have narrowed the slush, and your game hosts have chosen sixty-eight pitches for the game. To meet the slush readers go to this post here. And you can find out more about the amazing agents playing the game on this post here.
For those of you not familiar with Pitch Madness, it’s a contest where agents compete in a game against their peers for pitches and you can find the rules and instructions of the game here.
For this Pitch Madness game, we’re playing Mario Kart.

Comments are set to moderation so the agents won’t see their competitors’ bids. Please no comments other than those from the agents. After the game, we’ll release the moderation and let you all comment on the entries.
We’ll reveal the agent requests on March 11 at 12:00PM (that’s noon) EST.
Please note: We will email submission details for all requests by the agents. After the contest, agents will make requests to us for the pitches they loved and did not win.
All the twitter fun will happen on the hashtag #PitchMadness! 
Congratulations to those who’ve made it into the game! For those who haven’t made it (and whoever else wants to join us), we are hosting a Twitter Pitch Party on March 17 from 8AM to 8PMEST on the hashtag #PitMad.
How do you twitter pitch? You can find all the details here.
A huge HUGE thank you to my team, Kimberly P. Chase, K.T. Hanna, Dannie Morin, and Heather Cashman.
