Give it a try? Check.
Enjoy the challenge? Check.

4th %ile and plenty of company for 49 points in getting the 2nd answer only being tied at 1935/2020 :)

I'll confess that some of those questions played a lot harder than I expected. I was also surprised that 2 Llamas got perfect scores. Getting all 12 wasn't the hard part; moneying them correctly was.

I really enjoyed your quiz, Andy. I did well enough, considering my mediocre pop music percentage.

I enjoyed it and I ended up in 16th place largely because I moneyed Q8. I almost didn't even money it because it seemed like a WECIB? to me, but I guess not!

Well, I would have come in 16th with optimal moneying, but am quite satisfied to have come in 52nd. Nice job, Ms. Pickle!

I came in 641st. But I would have come in 1st if I got all the questions right and moneyed them correctly.
I had a dream that I was asleep and then I woke up and Jeopardy! was on.

I came in 1089th. But I would have come in 1st if only the last 104 players had entered. I did enjoy it outright and didn't know it was from a boardie until I'd already taken the gaspipe. I might have got a couple more with thinking time but I wanted to see the answer more than I wanted to get it right.
Nice job! I picked up on the female inventor theme at #4 I think.

That was one of the two questions that played the hardest (getting Stephanie Kwolek's name was the other). It was a tough one to try to get my head around; fortunately one of my playtesters came up with the version I eventually used.

New season starts Monday. Somehow I wasn't expecting it to come so soon. Looking forward to it.

Sorry for the gratuitous quote Mr. Selwonk, but the exact thing happened to me, AGAIN.

I didn't create the private rundle in time to let anybody know about it, so there be no Jboard95 private rundle with which to create chaos, mirth, or anarchy.

I still need to give due props to mahatma for his domination in our Jboardchaos94 competition and BigDaddyMatty's stellar silver medal finish.

We shall return in LL96, with at least two weeks notice. (I hope).

I am too...and I hope I'm more diligent about logging in each day. Our work schedules have been adjusted and the days all run together now...and in LL94, I forfeited 3 times, which is very unlike me.

Is there still a non-chaotic JBoardies private rundle? I finally ponied up for the Premier membership. It's probably too late for this season?
