Congrats to the winners and thanks to mujason for a fun game.

Thanks for the game, mujason

Thanks to mujason and congrats to the winners.

Tale of woe: I left three singletons on the table.
Kym Johnson: I actually had her name down and changed it at the last minute. It was misspelled, but close enough for Jeopardy. What was I thinking?
John Adams: Let's see, Washington and Jefferson, but he was technically third against Jefferson. Better go with a more recent answer. Duh, Washington had two terms.
Cleveland: Federal Reserve Bank. San Francisco. Or Cleveland. Better go with my first guess. It always goes bad for me when I change an answer. Yeah, why couldn't I remember that for the DwtS answer?
Small consolation: Even with all three singletons, I wouldn't have been anywhere close to the podium.

Great job putting this together mujason. It was a lot of fun.

[Joy]

Thanks to mujason and all the players for this fun game!

[gamawire]

Can't believe I finished as well as I did - that mix of big sheeps and singletons didn't work out too bad. Here's hoping I do anywhere near this well on TD 180 (y'all don't forget to enter!). Thanks for the fun game, mujason.

[dnbguy]

Thanks for the game! Lots of sheep, but also a few doubletons (Zebulun, Screech, Richmond) = safely in the middle of the pack.

[jkbrat]

Thanks for the game, mujason! Middle-of-the-pack finish again for me, but only one error (Derek Jeter), so there's that, I guess. (Was trying so hard to come up with Bragg, but I couldn't get Gauss -- which I knew wasn't what I was looking for -- out of the way.) Congratulations to the placers!

[ElendilPickle]

Thanks, mujason!

[Paulsaysthought]

Thanks for the game, so much fun! 19th in my first try and a singleton (on my best category, Dancing with the Stars )
I will definitely be playing more of these!!!

[ihavejeoprosy]

[Magna]

Tough game, but fun. Thanks mujason!
