Haha but seriously yeah, pretty much. I know that the odds are super low. Maggie wasn't there, but Corina was super nice and awesome also

So, weird scenario here (maybe; maybe it's not weird at all). The online test is coming up again, but they say not to take it if you've auditioned in the last 18 months. I haven't, but I'm scheduled to in a month. Should I just take it anyway, since I haven't auditioned in the last 18 months, or should I not, since the upcoming audition is going to cover me for 18 months so I wouldn't be able to get called from this online test anyway?

They gave the guy credit for saying "Mary Tyler Moore" when the correct response was "The Mary Tyler Moore Show". One is an actress and one is the name of the TV show. And yesterday they gave someone "The Hulk" when the answer was "The Incredible Hulk". judges being too lenient

Also, The Hulk is the name of the character, The Incredible Hulk is the name of the comic book.

Did they slightly shorten the game, or are the players just being slow? I've been seeing a lot of shows lately where they don't complete the boards. It seems like they added some more time for commercials.

Missed half the game today because another of trumps shitbags resigned. Please ABC, leave the 30minutes a day I don't have to hear about this fuckwad alone.

I just think the players are taking longer to clue into what has become some of the stupidest and worst categories in a long while. So yea, they're slow.

Yo a tiebreaker!? Is this new? Also for those of you with twitter this is a cool account. https://twitter.com/JeopardyGuesser They try to blind guess final jeopardy every night after the category before the clue is given. People send them in too. My brothers and I always did this so its cool to me

Jesus gently caress, that should not have been a FJ that stumped all three players. I mean, all you had to do was pick the islands in between the two countries mentioned in the clue.

yeah this is the first tiebreaker since they changed the rule and no longer let both players play the next day in case of a tie I guess they producers got mad at Arthur Chu for intentionally doing ties

Nah, I can distinctly remember seeing at least one tiebreaker before this. There haven’t been many though, and In fact that one I remember might be the only other one besides today.

Yeah, I distinctly remember seeing a tiebreaker clue before as well, but it was a whiiiiiiile ago.

HookShot posted:Yeah, I distinctly remember seeing a tiebreaker clue before as well, but it was a whiiiiiiile ago. The only tiebreaker clue I ever remember was that Teen Tournament one a couple seasons back that crowned Jeff Xie as the winner. I know that they changed the rule the season after a bunch of times right after Arthur's run, but I think this is the first time I ever saw one in the wild, during regular play. As for Final, I managed to name the right question at the last second, because I forgot how to refer to them until it came to me right then. Agreed that it shouldn't have been a triple stumper, but people overthink things under the lights and all that. HookShot posted:Yeah, I totally haven't checked my phone for a missed call every five minutes since 4:30pm yesterday. No siree. Late, but congrats and retro good luck. And yeah, Corina is a treat. Maggie is even better, but Corina is a really great Contestant Coordinator as well. She's the one who the referral emails I hand out are to be sent to as well. I assume Producer Glenn was also there at the audition? GhostStalker fucked around with this message at 05:18 on Mar 2, 2018 |

Maybe that was the one, the Teen Tournament one. And yeah, Glenn was there for sure.

HookShot posted:Maybe that was the one, the Teen Tournament one. Glenn is cool. He's the guy standing in for Alex and reading the clues during the actual podium practice game you do at the studio after paperwork and makeup to familiarize yourself with the board and the buzzer timing as the audience files in but before Alex makes his actual appearance. He's also usually the last guy you see as you leave the studio after you lose, as he's the guy who calls the cab for you if you didn't drive over and took the shuttle from the hotel.

According to ~*~Facebook comments~*~ that was actually the second tiebreaker question, no one knew the answer to the first, they just didn't show it because of time constraints.

It drives me up the wall when contestants ring in to answer the last question when they can't overcome the leader's two-way runaway but another player could. Way to buzz in and secure your own loss!

Huh, if it was by Andy Saunders, aka the Jeopardy Fan, or someone like Vaughn Winchell, I'd believe it. Wonder who was at the taping to confirm that.

so Matt won the game but he messed up his wagering when he got the Daily Double as the last clue of Double Jeopardy Matt had $12000, Shari $9800, Jesse $9600 there are no more clues after this. The most important thing to do is to ensure you are in first place going into final. so logically Matt should bet 2199 or less but he bets 3000 if he gets it wrong he will be in third place what the gently caress was he thinking? (he ended up getting the daily double right so it didn't matter, but that was very bad strategy)

yeah that works too depends on how confident you feel in the daily double category I wouldn't do it if it's something like opera

Very few contestants think of making non even Daily Double wagers. It's almost always a number that ends in a zero.
