2/3 on DD; couldn’t think of the third, which I learned from Jeopardy! anyhow!
Got FJ. I love that city (despite never having been there) because it was reputedly named after the Barca family, which included the great tactical general, Hannibal! And, to him is ascribed one of my most favorite sayings: “We will find a way, or we will make one.”
Ken’s Roadkill…I dig it!!
Wow, Jason, that’s a great quote. 👍 I’m sending it to my son. He always appreciates a great quote.
I was absolutely awful tonight. Got the 3rd DD and a few stumpers. Said Athens for Final even though I knew that was wrong. I’ve been to Barcelona, but would not have thought of it being in a 5M area.
That was a good game, and I thought everyone was competent. I have to wonder if Rocco’s phrasing gaffe may have cost him an ultimate win. Had he spoken correctly, he’d have had $X more and Klay, who swooped in, $Y less. But I’m guessing the amounts would not have been enough to put Rocco in the lead entering Final.
Got the PA museum city; the wasp ship; woman’s bedroom. The Buddhist temple stumper value is shown as $000.
Yeah, I meant to fix that, Howard. It’s $800. I’ll fix it tomorrow. (I’m not signed in to the site on my phone)
Ugh! I performed a tad below average in the game, and didn’t have a clue regarding FJ. Anyways, that was quite a competitive game, and Michelle was going strong. Unfortunately, Michelle just couldn’t come up with the correct response in FJ, and Klay emerged as the new Jeopardy champion.
She’d have lost, as it played out, even with an all-in wager and a correct response.
Just like last week, we had a new champ each day and this week history repeats itself as we saw 5 different champs. Klay is our 11th consecutive new champ. Will Klay break the 1 day curse or will we get new champs again? We’ll have to wait and see on Monday and we are down to the final four weeks of Season 41.
Well, the one day champs aren’t really a bad thing if you look at it this way: 11 people didn’t show up for nothing like many have when you’ve got one player on a long run.
I never confirmed this, but I read years ago there was an online group known as Ken Jennings’ Roadkill. There was a young guy on a few shows before me who I was sure would be a 5-day champ (the limit then) and annihilate me, but he lost in his 3rd game and wasn’t at the studio when I arrived the next day.
