I was 2/3 on DD, and missed FJ. I also said Liliputians.
Got about half the TS. I especially was proud of the castle and lawyer one!!!
What could have been a much closer game blew up when the challengers pretty much self-destructed in the 2nd round. I had no clue on Final, blurted out “Munchkins” and had no idea that was correct. 2/3 on DDs; Alfred quickly blurted out his answer for the 3rd and was shot down before I could give it any thought.
Knew the PJ restaurateur (often misspelled as restauranteur); that was a really tough one. Not difficult: the katydid insect; Elvis’s Swedish co-star; and the “grave” apple (come on).
It was a another competitive game, and I myself did a tad above average. Anyways, there wasn’t much to go on in Fj unless someone actually read the book. Well, I went with ‘leprechaun’.
This FJ! reminds me of 06/07/01 when Jason Block wrote down “What is Lilliput?”, Alex Trebek said that the 4th 1 is Munchkin Land. So, we have Gillikin, Winky, Quadling and Munchkin as parts of Oz.
For the second Thursday in a row, we got a triple stumper in the final since today’s final was tough.
