I think some of those answers are wrong. #41, wasn't the question "Idina Menzel beat Kristin Chenoweth for the Tony"? That's not Frozen, that's Wicked.

Troy Queef posted:there's an error on that: 41 should be Wicked, as they likely confused Kristen Chenowith (the original Glinda) with Kristen Bell. Still has Howard's long-suffering wife in both of 'em.

Oh ho! I actually thought I got Henry VIII's wife wrong, but I had it right! 42/50, then. Hopefully I can get the phone call this time.

Tonys are for Broadway musicals (not movies) and Kristin Chenoweth wasn't in Frozen. What was the question with the answer "cause"?

41 for me.Anne Whateley posted:What were the questions with the answers "standard" and "cause"? "This is the 'S' in the S&P 500" Then something about how an arrest in an investigation requires probable this.

somewhere around 40, give or take 2. Totally blanked on one I should’ve known, and changed my answer on one and got it wrong as a result. Oh well.

Missed Byron (deliberated between him and Tennyson, don't know poo poo about either, picked wrong), armadillo, Ibsen, Libya, copper, orange (if I'd had ten more seconds I think I would've changed my answer to this, I debated it), Sagittarius, and Dodgers. 42/50

48/50, didn’t read the category and said Glee for the menzel/chenoweth one and flat out didn’t know Jaffa and whatever (food is a massive blind spot for me)

Ugh, hosed the dog on the practice test. 23/30, most embarrassingly I blanked on Verdi. Hopefully the actual test goes better in 15 minutes or so! E: Better, probably about 43/50. Blanked on Coleridge and Sorkin but I've done worse. E2: vvv the closer they are, the faster they orbit vvv Albino Squirrel fucked around with this message at 03:22 on Jan 30, 2020 |

I got 6 on the practice test, but I'm confident I did well on the real one tonight. At Least better than last year. Time to watch The Planets on Nova.

I really enjoyed the champ from early this week. Her reactions to every clue were like she was being controlled by a malfunctioning AI and I really enjoyed it. When she did a fake sleeve-rolling followed by a hair flip going into FJ down last night I was cracking up.

Dumb thing I've always wondered: when you actually go on the show do they explicitly prohibit nonstandard forms of question-responses e.g. "Is it ___?" or "How about ___?"Albino Squirrel posted:The first rule of Trivia Club is that Finnish composers are always Sibelius.

I've heard it just has to be a question. I know they accepted something like "Would THAT be X?" (After the contestant has incorrectly guessed X on another question a minute earlier.)

I took tonight's test. I drew some complete blanks and felt like I did poorly, but scoring myself after the fact it looks like I got 39. It may even be 40 if they give me credit for butchering the spelling of Frida Kahlo's last name as Callo (I would have gotten it right on the show, at least). Here's hoping for a second in-person audition!

Oof, final from the other night would have been a disaster for me. Usually Oscar categories are very strong for me....not exactly one of my "wager everything no matter what the score is" like physics or astronomy, but I'd definitely have bet big and then drew a complete blank.

My scores from this week's online tests (doing the second and third on YouTube) were 42, 40 and 41. But I also did one of last year's tests this same week and got like 30. I think the pool is going to be way bigger this year unless they raise the standard to be considered. Every time I know the answer to a question I feel like I got really lucky and it's the only question I could have answered.

funny enough i scored my all time highest on a J6 binge (41/60) and completely tanked the jeopardy test. this is a world of contrasts, and while i don't think i'll ever be a contestant on jeopardy, i still enjoy watching it.

Good game tonight, did not like the guy leading after DJ cause he was wiggling around in this weird way every time he answered and the guy who won deserved it for being the only one to get what I thought was a mad easy FJ right -- I could imagine getting stuck trying to come up with a natural geographic feature just on the category but "created in 1953" really should point you toward three choices.

I saw “mammals” and immediately yelled Platypus. Feels good man. We’ll do it for some of regular jeopardy too, it’s honestly a fun way of trying to prep your brain to what kind of answers to expect.
