I had a great DJ, as well; I missed two each in colleges and history, got all but corundum in minerals, and ran the rest. I groaned when I saw the FJ category, and indeed didn't know the poem being quoted, but because Burns was Scottish, the description made me think Highlands, so that was my guess, having no idea if he had a poem with that in the title.

proserpina65 November 19 Share November 19 Had to look at the archives because fucking FOX45 ran Family Feud at 7 for some idiotic reason. I would've gotten FJ right away. Would've done okay, but not great, with the rest of the game, too. I did get Mercury dime, escudo, Olduvai Gorge, fusillade and Brighton. I vacillated between Jordan and Morocco for that clue and chose the wrong one. (I thought Morocco had a King Hussein at one point but turns out is was Hassan.) 3 hours ago, Clanstarling said: We, on the other hand, were absolutely sure we were right with "Molly Hatchet."

chessiegal November 19 Share November 19 I got Carrie Nation. I had lunch at the Menger Bar in San Antonio where Carrie Nation wielded her axe. 10 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/149217-jeopardy-season-41-2024-2025/page/16/#findComment-8512289
ams1001 November 20 Share November 20 November 19: 70% / 75% / 73% Pretty decent game tonight! In J I ran "Over" & "Under" and Y2K Memories, missed one in Billboard Music Awards, two in Timepieces, and three in People on US Money and Landlocked & Loaded. In DJ I ran It's Ruined and Veterinary Medicine, missed one in Sitcom Neighbors and French Crossword Clues, two in Musical Instruments, and three in Literary Los Angeles. And I got FJ (pretty quickly, too; a pleasant surprise for a sports category). TSes: (J had only the DD; DJ had 3 + 1 DD) I got South Sudan (DD), Edward Gibbon, and décolletage. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/149217-jeopardy-season-41-2024-2025/page/16/#findComment-8512432
