I would definitely put Lindsey Berns, along with Kaya Chua, Rene Bender, Becca Arm, Julia Kite, Kerri Griffith, and E. A. Srere as one of the best female J! non-winners. Don't forget Kim Taylor (the one from Season 26), who until earlier this year had the highest known Coryat ever for a losing chal...

FTR, I just want to state that the main reason why I don't think Susan will streak herself is because players who win with less than $10K generally do not last more than a day. Obviously there are exceptions to this (Gilbert Collins had a similar total on his first day and went on to qualify for th...

Another win for Jessica by letting others around her fall and solving FJ! Her run has been improbable, but now she's two wins (or maybe one) away from the ToC. cheezguyty, what's the longest anyone has gone without hitting a DD? Tucker Dunn and Zack Terrill both played four games without ever findi...

The Jason juggernaut continues. 7 consecutive runaways going back to the final game of Season 35; without checking, I would guess that the only other contestants to have accomplished that are James and Ken. Julia Collins had seven consecutive runaways, starting with her thirteenth game. If you cons...

That makes 15 games this season with no 3/3 sweep by the contestants? cheezguyty: How many more games for the record? Season 33 didn't have a triple get until the 21st game. Seasons 3 and 5 may have gone even longer. There is not a triple get among the first 29 archived FJs for Season 3 (of course,...

I added 4/7/86: http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=6421 (Tom's last name is a guess and of course Andrea could be Reed.) Alex said in the video that Tom had beaten a 4x champ. Do we (I use that pronoun loosely) know who that was? It was Eric Schoeck, per an article from this issue of the...

Thank you writers for the shoutouts! They made my day!


(Huh? Those clues weren't written with me in mind? Don't be silly, of course they were...)

I know I'm extremely late to the party on this one, but I was catching up on last season and playing through this game today and I noticed that this game was played entirely top-to-bottom. In particular, DJ! was played top-to-bottom, left-to-right. Anybody (I guess I'm talking most to cheezguyty) k...

A similar problem was reported in a post to the support forum for the Simple Spoiler BBCode extension, also in relation to an update to the phpBB software. A newer version of the extension was then released which seems to fix the issue.

The Archive doesn't have anyone from Dave Madden's games mentioning them winning 250k on Millionaire [...]

That's because this player page needs to be updated.

I added a Chase line and BETS line for Miguel: http://www.j-archive.com/showplayer.php?player_id=7294

If some knows when he was on WWTBAM I can add one for that as well.

Miguel won $1,000 on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire on 2003-04-16.

I've mentioned those infernal Radio City Music Hall celeb matches from 2006 many times. They have to be some kind of record for unrevealed clues, with 11/17/06 being the frontrunner at 16 in J! and 10 in DJ! This was due to an insane amount of buffoonery and the inexplicable decision to have Broadw...

Question for cheezguyty (mostly because I don't keep tournament data in my spreadsheets): Other than Holzhauer games, where does today's game rank in terms of "combined final score post-Final Jeopardy"? Tonight's post-FJ combined score of $106,399 is the highest ever for any game outside of James's...

BEST PICTURE OSCAR NOMINEES

These two men were each the subject of a different 1942 Best Picture-nominated film with "Yankee" in its title

Has anyone ever figured out what percentage of players who are ahead going into FJ bet zero?

Excluding games where the leader has a lock, it's less than 1%. It's actually slightly more common for the leader to bet it all.

I was embarrassed to miss this FJ. I spent way too much time thinking "Victoria is in the clue so it can't be Victoria, can it?" This made me curious if the correct answer to Final Jeopardy has ever been contained within the clue (not counting trivial cases such as when the answer is a letter of th...

Martin is from Martin (TN). cheezguyty: Any other players with a first name matching their hometown?

I could only find one: (Captain) Lawrence Indyk from Lawrence, Kansas.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Salome's total of $32,800 is the fourth-highest second place finish in Jeopardy! history, trailing only the scores obtained by James Holzhauer victims Nate Scheffey and Adam Levin (the latter of whom currently holds the title for highest second place finish pe...
