As usual, you can’t logically conclude that FJ was “tough” because it was a triple stumper. That doesn’t stand forensic discussion.
In any case, I was 3/3 on DD, and got FJ (and rather quickly). There’s just some things you should know. And, compared to the somewhat arcane Home Depot FJ clue from a few weeks ago, this one did give the information needed.
And, boy howdy, I don’t even know how many TS there were. But, if TS was a person, they won this show running away.
There were 20 triple stumpers in this game, 2 less than last Friday!
While some folks are waiting for the one-day champ streak to end, I’m waiting for some players who will cut the number of stumpers to 10 or less.
I thought this week was the last week of the season, and they were cleaning out the piles. If there is indeed a month or more, some stronger candidates would be MORE than welcome, at least to me, and you!
I’m hesitant to call that a good game because it turned into a runaway, and there were too many stumpers and wrong answers. Emily made a valiant comeback after that disastrous DD wager. Nicholas vanished in double Jeopardy. Micah was the least offensive, although I think he should have known that first DD (the only one I got). I really thought Final was Wikipedia, since I use it daily for one reason or another. But I’m also on Craigslist daily checking my listings.
Some that I found very answerable: Florida’s pandemic action; Brobdingnag novel; red songbird; WNBA coastal teams; Wahlberg boxing film; actor Jack/way of speaking.
I’m guessing that after this week, there are 2-3 weeks left of new shows.
And we got a triple stumper in the final for the second straight Tuesday since today’s final was tough.
Felix the Cat is one of my all-time favorite cartoons. The original, not the reboot. My grandkids learned how to say “Good Morning” by watching the 1936 cartoon Neptune Nonsense with me when they were a year old — 80 years after it was made 🤣
