I don't mind Bala at all, the lady he beat was so annoying though, people who take forever to choose categories should never be allowed on the show

Number Ten Cocks posted:Bala the charisma void needed to go. Lots of people lately who I'm amazed made it through auditions. Yeah, he was pretty bad. Dude looked super uncomfortable. Nerves, likely. Final tonight took me a bit, but I worked it out in time going from Mars to Ares to Antares.

Bala seemed so depressed! He was all but audibly sighing after getting an answer wrong.

So according to last year's Teachers Tournament winner on Facebook, the calls for the next ToC just went out and they tape in September. Probably means a November air date, for Sweeps. EDIT: Confirmed by another ToC eligible player I'm friends with on FB. GhostStalker fucked around with this message at 01:38 on Jun 14, 2017 |

I can't believe no one got Nostradamus for that FJ. It was pre-rennaissance, there weren't that many good options!

True, but pre-Renaissance, "doctor" was a pretty nebulous thing, so I ignored my preconceptions of that part. I think the most important thing to focus on was the date, followed by "predict."

Of course contestant "proud college republican" Jeremy let us all know he went to HARVARD within two seconds of opening of mouth. Like, of course he did. I was rooting against that guy hard.

Either way, a very poor showing by everyone. I mean, I like aggressive wagering as much as the next goon, but it helps to actually know the category first.

It was p great when, on the very last question, sitting on a 7200-3600 lead, when the guy sitting at 3600 had already buzzed in, he buzzed in and got it wrong, opening himself up to lose in FJ.

Contestant said she kissed Anthony Hopkins. She sent him a gift during a play(?). She went backstage to see him. He pecked her on the lips.

I saw the pile of unread posts and spent tonight's episode guessing what horrible thing they were in reaction to. Little did I suspect that the entire episode would be nearly unwatchable!

Yeah that was up there on the list of Bad Jeopardy Episodes but at least the Harvard College Republican lost. I didn't even need to watch the interviews to know that was going to be the case.
