Tuesday’s clue was the toughest of the week, and the only one that no one got. For the easiest, we’re going with where George Washington was hanging his tricorne while the White House was being built. The rest of the week was pretty easy, too. The lone wrong answer on Friday’s clue was “Das Kapital” and, for future reference, it might help to remember that one has the word “capitalist” in the first line, but they probably will never use it just because of that, at least not in Final Jeopardy!

Just like last week, there were no triple solves this week. Unlike last week, we had ONE champ all week.

Alan Lin defeated David Rigsby on Monday and won every match for the rest of the week. If you want to see his daily payouts, look at the Wheel of Fortune post. There were 2 days that he made more than that show’s winner.
