Re: TD 339 Urban Legends

This TD was lots of fun to read and to play. I'll say that now before I see how sheepy I am.
Thanks, linda p!

Re: Secret Bunker News

Thank you for posting the finale, Mark. I'm going to miss tonight's show and I don't have a recorder, so I'm really glad I got to see the end of this terrific tournament.

Re: TD 332: From my Bookshelf: Final Results!

Thanks for hosting, lindap.
I really enjoyed this TD, despite my last place finish. Thank goodness I got some bonus points, so I didn't have to be there by myself.

Re: Monday, February 6, 2017 Game Recap & Discussion [SPOILERS]

With depths of up to 30,000 feet, ocean trenches make up a zone named for this brother of Poseidon & his domain This is one of those cases where expertise in one area is unhelpful. As a marine geophysicist, I know that the trenches are subduction zones. No other word is used in conjunction with...

My thought process: it'll be a good move to go to SE Asia. Jot down SE Asian countries, without regard to whether they actually touch China. Later, choose one, without filtering for the China adjacency requirement. Not too costly, but embarrassing.

Re: TD 331 - Academy Awards [ACCEPTING ENTRIES TIL FEB 6]

Can you list the current entrants? (Or is it posted and I'm missing it?) I don't remember whether I've submitted my entries, and with methods that don't have an audit trail (like pm'ing), you can't tell.
Thanks. Oh, great quiz.

Re: TD 330 - Chinese New Year [Q2 Revealed!]

I really enjoyed Q 1 about the Chinese zodiac (and the race, which I hadn't known about). My JBoard avatar is based on my Chinese zodiac sign. When we were first dating, my now-husband and I knew there was a big age difference between us, but we decided not to get too specific (possibly because I’m ...

Re: TD 327 - Pictures' Revenge! - FINAL STANDINGS!

Thanks to Armandillo for a great TD. I really liked the bonus twist. I even liked the lack of the drop option coupled with the assurance that there were several easy answers for each question. That helped. Congratulations to the top finishers - well done!

Re: TD 327 - Pictures' Revenge! - QUESTION 6 UP!

Regarding the flower bonus, I submitted for this. And according to my memory, I got it right. I don't think I can check since I submitted through Google forms, but could you check? It was exciting to take the risk, even knowing I might be wrong, but I was quite confident.
Thanks!

I cringed. Then crossed my fingers that Susan didn't curse herself by rightfully "disagreeing" with Alex. She managed to smile and not disagree. And she was rewarded with the win that her trivia skills earned her.

Re: TD 311 - "Name's the Same" - Now the EC Info.

Thanks, JWatcher16 for a very accessible and fun TD.
I thoroughly enjoyed my 1st place standing for most of the TD - a very unfamiliar place for me. I'm happy with my top 5 at the finish.
Congratulations to Coachgold and the other medal winners!
