The All Stars Tournament wrapped up on Monday and Tuesday with two FJ’s that everyone got. The regular games resumed on Wednesday and started out with a triple stumper. It was smooth sailing again on Thursday but Friday’s FJ threw two players off the track. Of the two clues that went low, we thought that Wednesday’s was hardest.

The cumulative scores from the All-Star Finals aren’t shown below. Team Brad won the million bucks. Team Ken came in second and Team Colby was third.

In the regular games, Dana Wayne returned for her second game on Wednesday. She won that one and Thursday’s too. On Friday, Conor Murphy won with the lone solve.

Dana’s $31,601 on Thursday got her a spot on the Top 15 Daily Payouts of Season 35. Conor’s winnings put him on the under $10K list for Season 35 and I’ll have to check, but I’m pretty sure that he’s the only one on the list that got FJ right. He bet to win if everyone got it wrong but what happened was everyone else got it wrong.
