Re: Introduce Yourself Here
Hi, my name is Tom. I grew up in Oklahoma and now I reside near Washington DC. Recently I got to attend the taping at DAR Constitution Hall of some of the upcoming Power Players shows. That was a lot of fun. I have enjoyed the privilege of playing Jeopardy! 13 times since 1989 (http://www.j-archive...

There's another point on which he got lucky - the judges' failure to reverse on the eighth clue of the game, for which Buzzy clearly said "Ga r garin" to a picture of the first man in space. Take $1200 off his score and he doesn't hold the lead going into Final. That being so, it's impossible to kn...

For some reason, I thought of Calvin Coolidge (to be fair, he WAS the president in 1927).TenPoundHammer wrote:Who was famous in America in 1927? Beats the hell out of me. I was stumped. I had no idea when Lindbergh did his thing, and the wording somehow had me locked into the political field and refusing to budge.

They are similar leaders in the sense that they were both popular and were both assassinated at the peak of their careers. It's easy to mix up the two.

My Coryat tonight was 14600. Not a good night. Loved the Alabama History category, though.
Andrew is almost certainly a lock for the next ToC, no matter when it may be.

This is his second term. Now that I think about it, I didn't vote for him in 2010. I wrote in some novelty joke candidate's name since I wasn't overly impressed with him or whoever he was running against. But I think I did vote for him in the primary and runoff, not really sure. Just curious -- con...

Re: Superchamps in ToC stats (2015 Spoilers)
While this is an interesting list, I think the amount of money and the consistency in regular game play are also factors in determining ToC odds as well as the amount of games won. If every game won by a ToCer was REALLY narrow win and/or loss, then the odds are lower of winning unless you can someh...
