All he's missing is a speed suit.

Still, more interesting a story that "I went to the Grand Canyon once" or "This,mildly funny thing happened once". However spergy it is.

E: jesus, that FJ, was that a question they forgot to use in the Teen Tournament? Anybody could have gotten that. At least Sara won, that's cool.

Wait that was seriously the final Jeopardy question? I would have scoffed if that had appeared in the first found, but as the final Jeopardy question? REALLY?

Also I thought that the middle guy looked more like the guy from Arrow than Dean Venture.

Anyway I'm glad to see that Sara's sticking around for another day!

That bald guy really messed up. Why would you ever potentially make yourself lose the lead on a last second daily double. Just bid 100 and stall for time or bid as much as you can without losing the lead. I can't believe he didn't know the answer too.

He had a LOT of wrong answers, too. He could have made this a lock if he hadn't shot himself in the foot, since he was usually faster on the buzzer.

And Sara wins by $2. She's really cleaning up, 75k in three days is excellent. Might have to be back for next year's ToC at this rate (noodle hair's gonna be there too).

Hahahaha, yeah, I skip all of the stories except for Sara's. I was wondering what Alex was getting at when he was like "We have Sara shoveling poop and... well, we won't go there..."


Anyway, Sara loving rules. I would be terrified to go up against her in Jeopardy, she'd wipe the floor with me.

That bald guy was all over the place. He was in the red 1/6 of the way through Double Jeopardy, then in the lead before he missed that Daily Double.

Yep. His story was basically I used to pee the bed, so my parents bought a huge alarm that went off and they would wake me up when I wet the bed.

Also, don't read other forums about Jeopardy. I found this wonderful quote while looking for a transcript or something:

Creepy dude posted:

HAHA yeah I sawr this and I was saying to Mrs. Hydraskull "check out this guy!" but she was too selfish with crying children to look at what I was trying to show her about. But that guy was pathetic. He couldnt' even win. But the girl with big boobs won again so that's alright.

I'm going to miss Sara. On the other hand, I'm not going to feel so loving tense during the game anymore for having a tertiary personal stake in it.

If I hit the DD's in a subject I don't know, you best believe I'm going to wager like $5. It'll still be worth it for eliminating the chance of another player to have a big payday.

For a guy who's actually on Jeopardy, there shouldn't really be two separate categories he doesn't know well. But he won so gently caress it I guess? :shrug:

Also, FJ was super easy. The hardest thing about it was remembering to get all the syllables of Anna Karenina in. I haven't even read the book, or seen the movie adaptations, but I know she dies by throwing herself under a train... FJ's usually have some sort of clue you can read into and make a solid guess with.
