blueray November 18, 2022 Share November 18, 2022 FJ, I started to try to name as many sci-fi authors I could think of, only for Ken to say "it wasn't a sci-fi author"... ;). I'm glad that Amy won yesterday and I hope she can win today (or Sam). I don't want Andrew to win, mainly because it isn't fair, as he didn't win the one game.

Roaster November 19, 2022 Share November 19, 2022 I'm glad Sam won, if only so we can get at least one more game. Amy appeared to overthink her FJ wager. I suspect that a downside of being smart enough to be in the TOC is that you can get too much into your head and complicate things. A less clever player (e.g. me and most contestants) would have bet enough to cover twice Sam's score and left it at that. I was surprised Andrew couldn't come up with Trump L'oeil for his Daily Double. I thought it was an instaget.

Amy had $15800. So, in order to ensure Andrew didn't win, she had to bet less than 15800-13600=$2200 to cover the possibility of him getting FJ right and her getting it wrong.

Bastet November 19, 2022 Share November 19, 2022 (edited) I understand why Amy wagered in order to live to fight another day (rather than what would have been a no-brainer wager of $6601 in a regular, one-and-done game), and I'm glad for Sam getting a win and us getting at least one more game, but I'd have been happy if Amy had put it away tonight. Now I have to be nervous again next week! My ideal scenario is Sam wins again Monday, forcing a seventh game, and Amy wins that one (and the tournament), but if she doesn't wind up winning this whole thing, I'm going to wish like hell she'd wagered differently tonight. As, I'm sure, will she! I loved her keeping it together until her wager was revealed, and then just sinking to the podium with head in hand. Hindsight is indeed 20/20. The audience being so pleased for Sam (okay, and more games, but I think a lot for him) was really nice. The roll-top desk TS surprised me, since it had a picture. I was also surprised no one knew baker's rack. Because in both cases, it didn't seem like no one could come up with it, they all looked like they just weren't familiar with the item. I was back to this ToC meaning I do worse than my norm in the first round. I ran "anti" and got all but one in cities and words, but missed two each in Neanderthal and furniture. And cultural osmosis failed me in the TV category; the only one of the shows I'd ever seen was The West Wing and that was the only clue I got. I did better in DJ. I ran women and got all but one in fiction and Before, During & After (I loved that category, but didn't know the telepathic character, so couldn't figure it out). I missed three in painting, and two each in bands and castles. I initially went blank on FJ, even though I'm usually pretty good with clues about cities in England, but then it came to me.

PaulaO November 19, 2022 Share November 19, 2022 Andrew said he and Margaret bonded over food so they are having dinner at a Korean restaurant. No hint of romance, just 2 foodies enjoying dinner. 3 4 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33889-jeopardy-tournament-of-champions/page/29/#findComment-7757057
Cementhead November 19, 2022 Share November 19, 2022 Margaret with the great accent was an early fave in our house. We liked her no- nonsense, unassuming manner. I could totally see her and Andrew being foodie friends. 3 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33889-jeopardy-tournament-of-champions/page/29/#findComment-7757087

Hope they record some on a phone! 6 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33889-jeopardy-tournament-of-champions/page/29/#findComment-7757089

I got as far as thinking of Couche-tard (think Quebec 7/11) but was unable to convert the sound "coosh" to the sound "cowch" (or to link being put to bed with the kind of furniture I associate with daytime) quickly enough. 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33889-jeopardy-tournament-of-champions/page/29/#findComment-7757094
truthaboutluv November 19, 2022 Share November 19, 2022 (edited) Happy for Sam that he finally got a win, especially on the FJ, as I felt that's where he kept faltering in some of the games where he was close. That said, I have a feeling not wagering enough on that FJ will come back and haunt Amy. Because I have a sneaky suspicion Andrew will win Monday's game and win the whole thing. That was her chance to win it all and it came down to her just not betting enough.

And was happy when Sam won the game. I am slightly ashamed to say I did the same. But since he has two wins already, I'm not feeling too guilty. 10 hours ago, 30 Helens said: Pretty good game for me, including TSs of trompe l’oeil, brick, rolltop desk, and couch. (C’mon, Amy, you’ve never even heard “voulez-vous coucher avec moi”? Not a Chaka Khan fan, I guess.) I am well versed with the Chaka Khan song - but since it means "would you like to sleep with me tonight", and not "would you like to sleep on my couch tonight" I didn't put it together. 🤣 I did pretty well (TOC standards) but no FJ again tonight. 😥 @Prevailing Wind, how horrible. I am so sorry for you and your family. 1 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33889-jeopardy-tournament-of-champions/page/29/#findComment-7757148
annzeepark914 November 19, 2022 Share November 19, 2022 🎶Voulez-vous coucher avec moi...🎶 That song immediately started playing in my head 🤓. Re: Margaret? I thought he was referring to maybe Cindy (I *now* think that's her name) who was the cute young contestant with black cats eye frames. This has been quite a tournament!! 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33889-jeopardy-tournament-of-champions/page/29/#findComment-7757261
