I somehow missed his first name in his intro post. Sorry, Berek! I'm clearly undercaffeinated.

Hello! I realize I never introduced myself. I'm Andrea, recent one-and-done champ. I, too, lurked for a long time and spent a lot of time on J-Archive when I was preparing for the various steps in the Jeopardy! process, and I finally signed up for an account after my first game aired. :)

Despite the aforementioned search option, I'll still answer - 7/18/13 and 7/19/13. Right at the tail end of the season.

And hi Andrea!

I'm Christopher, a computer programmer.

I've channelled my inner Roger Craig to make use of the archived questions and it's been a lot of fun.
I created an Android app to allow me to play the games, which I wish I could share with the community.
Recently, I created flashcards from the questions to learn the handful of Pavlovs that come up on the show daily, and I do plan to share those once I make some more tweaks and gain the ability to create a new thread.

Why don't you? I'd like to see it!

And, welcome!

Hi there, I'm Jim. I've been watching off and on for many years starting with my parents when Alex was the new host back in the 1980s. I DVR the show and watch every weekday now.

Hi pals, I'm John. I've kind of been half-efforting the online tests for years and finally stumbled into a live audition this year. Finally putting the studying hours in, hope to eventually make a big splash on the show

Hello,

I'm Patrick from Alabama, and I just started watching Jeopardy on a Daily basis with the 30th Anniversary Tournament. Because I didn't want to miss of the Tournament shows, I started putting the shows on DVR Season pass, and just continued watching the regular shows also.

I also recently tried out successfully for Sports Jeopardy, so I'm waiting for the call.

Glad to be here!

In addition, I just thought this would be the perfect place, now that it's just 2 weeks until the 2014 Teen Tournament airs, to tell you JBoardies that I am a contestant in said tourney!

I consider myself "close enough".
