Re: The Rankest Thread Imaginable
I just want to say I'm perfectly content with my title as is. In one of my early sonypictures posts, I said I'd definitely stay around until my dad aired, I'd probably stay until I got on, and I'd likely stay well afterward. I feel like my title fits that idea.

Re: The Rankest Thread Imaginable
My wife just finished watching the series Edward the King, a 13-hour biography of Edward VII, of which approximately 6 hours is occupied by the recitation of the titles of the likes of Edward, Queen Victoria, and Kaiser Wilhelm II. In that spirit, I would like the title "Jeopardy Champion, Loyal Jeopardista, 2006 ToC Finalist, Superchampion Nemesis, Defender of Humanity, and Tax Attorney".
Also, I demand that these be hereditary titles.

You sure those last two titles don't contradict each other?Rex Kramer wrote:My wife just finished watching the series Edward the King, a 13-hour biography of Edward VII, of which approximately 6 hours is occupied by the recitation of the titles of the likes of Edward, Queen Victoria, and Kaiser Wilhelm II.

"Jeopardy Champion" for me, please. And make sure mine isn't hereditary; my kid can win his own damn game of Jeopardy! in 20 years or so.

Fun! You can change mine, I guess. Jeopardy Roadkill. Or Contestant, same difference.

Re: The Rankest Thread Imaginable
I also like this idea - Jeopardy TOC'er would look nice next to my name, but I'd prefer 2010-B College Champion. Maybe we can hyphenate it like a hip woman of today.

How about "Lucky to be Here"?

We don't need no stinking titles...

I thought about "Flash in the Pan", but I think "Jeopardy Champion" would be nice. Thank you.

Swimming in the Jeopardy pool for the third time; fingers just beginning to pucker and a bit of water in one ear. Most recent audition on May 20, 2011, in DC.

Re: The Rankest Thread Imaginable
This thread serves to remind me that I forgot to celebrate my Jeopardy anniversary on Monday. I became a Jeopardy Champion 22 years ago. If you missed it, maybe your local TV station preempted my episode for breaking news about the San Francisco earthquake, just as Game 3 of the World Series was about to start at Candlestick Park. The Oakland A's eventually won every game and retired as undefeated champions. Unfortunately, I did not. But I still have hopes of being in the J! Archive some day.
