Jeopardy! Chronicles:

so what do we learn from this game?

We learned that you do not make dangerous wagers past a certain point. Unfortunately, one of our contestants had to figure this out the hard way. How many times have I said it over the course of the existence of this podcast? It only takes one dumb wager to ruin the entire game for you. Dangerous wagers can and will blow up in your face. How did the game end up turning out though? That's what your play button is for. This description box is just the teaser.rs

we still have a champion on a winning streak. Will that continue tonight?

Will a category fry my brain? Did we get more daily doubles right today than we did yesterday? Do I ask too many questions in these podcast descriptions? All of that, except for maybe that last one, at the click of your play button.n?

this game looked like a theoretical lock, but as I said in the episode, on a scale from common household lock to fort Knox, this was a lock on someone's diary. Strategy. Could have made all the difference in this game. It literally could have come down to the wire. Did that happen? Guess you'll have to hit play and find out.

I don't put spoilers in my episode descriptions.

this is a double episode, half because my phone battery ran out and half because I fell asleep waiting for it to get charged.

In the first game, we saw it come right down to the wire, and we saw the risks of unwise wagering. Strong theoretical lock. Was that lock in fact theoretical, or did it hold? That's for me to know and you not to find out unless you watch the episode or listen to this podcast or bothre

and we wrap up the week with one of the most intense games I have seen all season.

It literally came down to a correct answer and a wager. Also, the Bob rules are in effect for the first time this season. For those who don't remember because we've been absent so long, the Bob rules happen when I cannot pronounce a contestant's name because I cannot get a three-way consensus between Johnny, Ken, and at least one of my screen readers. It will be better explained in the episode itself, so I will not write the full explanation here.er

first of all guys, forgive us for any errors.

We're exhausted. second of all, this game took a U-turn. It looked like it was going to be insanely close, and then it was decidedly just not. All three of our players played really really well today, and I do believe they all had fun. Once again, Morgan utterly obliterated me in the score department. ed
