The past 3 weeks of Jeopardy have left me convinced that all overly-polite Midwestern women are trivia savants.

The head contestant coordinator mentioned quite a streak too, and doing the math between what she mentioned and when my episode is to air, if Julia is the woman she was referring to, then this is about the right time for her streak to be running.

When your interview story is telling us that you write "adult fiction" uh maybe consider a different story

Julia Collins has now won more games than any other woman, and the fourth-most overall (behind Ken Jennings, David Madden, and Arthur Chu). This also makes 21 (I think) days of consecutive female champions. This season really has been something.

Double posting because the 2-week Battle of the Decades final begins on Monday, and we have matchups! Monday, May 5 – Quarterfinal 1 - Robin Carroll (’90s) Atlanta, Ga. - Roger Craig (’00s) Brooklyn, N.Y. - Leszek Pawlowicz (’80s) Flagstaff, Ariz. Tuesday, May 6 – Quarterfinal 2 - Pam Mueller (’90s) Princeton, N.J. - Tom Nosek (’80s) Torrance, Calif. - Russ Schumacher (’00s) Fort Collins, Colo. Wednesday, May 7 – Quarterfinal 3 - Mark Lowenthal (’80s) Reston, Va. - Dan Pawson (’00s) Brooklyn, N.Y. - Brad Rutter (’90s) Los Angeles, Calif. Thursday, May 8 – Quarterfinal 4 - Tom Cubbage (’80s) Arlington, Va. - Ken Jennings (’00s) Seattle, Wash. - Rachael Schwartz (’90s) Mountain View, Calif. Friday, May 9 – Quarterfinal 5 - Colby Burnett (’00s) Chicago, Ill. - Mark Dawson (’90s) Chamblee, Ga. - Chuck Forrest (’80s) Rome, Italy I get the strong feeling we're gonna see Jennings and Rutter in the final, with Rutter as the champ.

Don't forget that they take 4 wild cards to the next round, so the 0 wager for Leszek makes sense. $15k should give him a good chance of advancing. Anyone else think today's BOTD board was easier than the others?

It would be nice if there was a surprise at the end of the tournament. The surprise: the two winners must play Watson again.

Tom was doing pretty well early, but then fell apart halfway through Double Jeopardy. Too bad he didn't think to bet small so he could've gotten in on a Wild Card spot. Pam has a good chance there, though.

I am rooting for Pam, and I swear it's not just because she's cute. Nice burn on Aaron Sorkin, and I can't believe I finally got a BOTD FJ right.

After that beatdown I will consider us robbed if we don't get Jennings vs Rutter III. Edit: I got FJ immediately and cannot believe that none of them did. zakharov fucked around with this message at 00:27 on May 8, 2014 |

Man, Ken Jennings really cleaned up this game, as expected. Blitzed through the last category of Double Jeopardy, added to his lead spectacularly there, over $30k. That first Daily Double with the county bordering France took him a while but he made it at the end. And the repartee he had for the Charles Shultz answer with Alex was great as well. Still, everyone in the negatives right at the beginning after missing a few clues was strange to see. Tom looks like he'll take a Wild Card, maybe.

Stephanie Jass, one of the first round competitors, is a Hunger Games fan and wore the pin for her game - when she lost she gave it to Dan but turns out the odds were not in his favor either. Tonight's match should be fantastic (love Colby) but I want to see a Roger/Brad/Ken final so bad...

I know you all probably are doing it anyway but follow Ken Jennings on Twitter if you don't already. Dude's fuckin' hilarious. Makes some amazingly off-color jokes for a Mormon, too.
