I would never get those before/during/after and tripple rhyme time categories.

At least not that fast.

I need like 30 seconds each

My brain just doesn't work that way. Those take practice.

Eh that’s not super crazy. It’s thinking of the answers so quickly that makes jeopardy tough

Yeah, I should have qualified my statement to exclude those 3-parters.

I enjoy the game, but my only issue is that of the success is just the ability to work the button; and that advantage probably accelerates the longer someone is on the show.

I wish they would eliminate the Daily Double in a tournament like this.

I realize Brad missed his, but between James and Ken it's basically doubling the score every time and well James did not get a single Daily Double in either game??? And he was still only $200 shy.

I'm definitely disappointed.

May have just had recency bias thinking James could hang


James wins if he just gets one DD most likely..

I don't think he got a single one in either game?

That just shows how well James played IMO.

I was watching off and on, so if James did get one I apologize. I just recall Ken and Brad getting the majority of them.

He missed a couple. Ken missed a pretty easy one too. Might as well be a different show if you take out the daily double imo

I am more than fine with the Daily Double for regular jeopardy.

I just think to determine the greatest ever in this style of format it should be removed. That's fine if you disagree.

Who missed a couple? You are saying James did get a DD? I didn't see all of the 2nd game.

No my fault; I misread your post. Brad missed a couple not James. But the daily double is a huge part of jeopardy. Would be like taking the bankrupt out of wheel of fortune.

I understand what you’re saying though.

I consider myself pretty good at trivia. But I gotta tell ya, I would have got SMOKED tonight. BAD.

Especially on the second game. Those were some killer boards. I have so much respect for these three guys.

I did get the one that stumped all three of them... Alexander the Great’s mother, Olympias. So I have that to console me in my Jeopardy! shame.

I thought James would be dominating this thing, and Ken would be last> I am fricking shocked right now honestly.
