Lol me with the typo for Q3 (EO instead of FO). And it would’ve aced too!

No guess for Wednesday. Eisenhower on Friday.

My wife got the Ringling Causeway clue, but I was blank.

Coryat: $36,800 (47R, 1W) DD: 3/3 FJ: :mrgreen: instaget FJ, having travelled a decent bit in that part of the world. I was stunned at some of the answers, tbh. Also negged with San Fernando Valley. Had MTA for Police Squad $800 — judges? While I was happy for Susan, selfishly, I don’t want to see h...

Coryat: $31,400 (45R, 2W) DD: 3/3 FJ: :( Not a great game for me. Misses were Socrates on He Said It $800 (misread the clue) and moving pictures for talking pictures on __ing __ $2000, same as Nick. FJ was never coming, I’ve heard of the Lend-Lease Act maybe twice in my life, but know nothing about ...

Coryat: $37,800 (43R, 1W)
DD: 3/3
FJ:

Nice going, Nick! How nervous were you when you saw the FJ category? I know I cringed when I saw it on my couch

Only slip-up was zirconia for Shiny Things $200

Coryat: $45,800 (54R, 0W) DD: 3/3 FJ: :mrgreen: I was a calabash away from sweeping round 1. DJ was almost as good. I don’t know if it’s a record for me, but it’s definitely top 3. Alex had not even finished the first line in the FJ clue before I answered. As soon as I saw Kimberly’s wager, I was 99...

NHO Allende, went with Hillary Clinton.

No guess on peacock, like most others.

I had "Allende" but couldn't pull the first name in time. Judges?

Do I need a first name to distinguish her from her father, even though he wasn't a writer?

I can’t see why, since the category was Women Authors.

Guessed Hillary after ruling out Rice (wouldn’t have written an autobiography while still SoS) and Albright (wouldn’t have had 9/11 as a momentous event while not in office?). In the end it didn’t matter, NHO the actual answer and I’m super impressed with anyone who got it. Hardest non—tournament FJ...

Negged with Triassic.

Coryat: $34,400 (44R, 1W)
DD: 2/3
FJ:

Negged with revise for redact. Couldn’t think what the date referred to.

I was stuck on Indonesia for a long time, then remembered it actually had the *most* Muslims and made it to the correct pair in time.

I’m wondering what’s going to happen to the auditions. I’m very skeptical that they’ll go as planned at this point.

Never read/seen Island of Doctor Moreau, never seen Moana.

Coryat: $33,000 (43R, 2W) DD: 2/3 (missed prairie schooner) FJ: :( LT ($5,200): Wednesday, José Andrés, Minuteman, barb, Calamity Jane Two FJ misses in a row. Never thought of copperhead as something that needed to stick, this will certainly remedy that. As soon as Susan found DD3, I knew Aaron had ...

Coryat: $36,800 (48R, 2W) DD: 2/3 (missed Nicaragua) FJ: :( LT ($3,400): deserters, swill, British U.S. ambassador Valiant end to a great run. MacKenzie looked like she was just getting beaten to the buzzer consistently. She did well to make a game of it. FJ streak ends at 10. Drew a complete blank....

Coryat: $33,000 (44R, 0W) DD: 3/3 FJ: :mrgreen: LT ($6,400): linesman, T, Lake Victoria, Wellington, Winter Palace, bungalow, Haile Selassie, Morocco (DD) FJ was a last second get, trying to come up with astronomy-related words that might fit with the Latin and made an educated guess. Did exactly as...

Coryat: $32,000 (45R, 1W) DD: 2/3 (missed catharsis) FJ: :mrgreen: LT ($7,400): arts, chinchilla, brandy, psychiatry, Prose, Mike Wallace, museum You could just see Christopher melt down in slow motion after MacKenzie grabbed the big lead with DD2. Started pressing after leading for so long, then fe...

Coryat: $39,000 (48R, 0W)
DD: 1/3 (Andorra)
FJ:
LT ($5,000): Ralph Nader, Stratego, Rumpelstiltskin, Bat Masterson, Limburger

Stratego was the game I always wanted as a kid but never got.

Instaget FJ. My wife, so confident in her answer, negged just as Steve did.

I'm in the Broadway theatre district all the time (though in the theatres themselves much less often). So I know for example that there is now a new show in the former "Waitress" theatre with a short title and a purple sign. That show is the already-predicted-as-a-future-J!-clue musical about the w...
