Re: Thursday, May 18, 2023 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)

Seemed like a lot of Lach trash, despite Ben's dominance. May we have a fourth podium for 2nd place poll? In Ben's place I don't think I would have done $19K off the FJ! category, but I can imagine I might have gone with $11K. $0? Boo, although it's his money and I get that the fun stuff can be scar...

Destroyed.

I'm glad it was a runnaway. That FJ was just a latch key for whomever was in the lead at the end of DJ to win automatically.
I got it from 1967 alone.

Re: Friday, May 12, 2023 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)

I wasn't surprised the bottom two clues in Game Show Hosts were triple stumpers. Allen Ludden died probably before any of them were born, and Dawson stopped hosting Family Feud in 1986, although he went back for a year in 1994. They probably didn't even know what Laugh-In and Hogan's Heroes were. S...

Re: Friday, May 12, 2023 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)

I came here right away to find out what that DD meant. Thanks, Golf. Same. I paused it, read it 3 times, and still had no idea what the hell the question was saying (not that comprehension was necessary to get the two teams.) In real time during the broadcast, I actually started thinking of the Sec...

Re: Fourth Podium Poll for Friday, May 12, 2023

$6600 in trash, but missed the FJ.
I got Desperado during the game but forgot about it, and failed to check the box because my eyes skipped over it. :(

I also picked up the Indianapolis/Denver DD that skunked Hannah. :mrgreen:

Re: Masters Tuesday, May 9, 2023 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)

Game 1, Amy showing she has not worked on strategy as her FJ wager was not good Yeah, I was gonna say.... She also demonstrated no serious grasp of her opponents' wagering history. Did she really believe Sam might wager zero in that situation? I would expect to see James wager less than 800 in that...

Barring the possibility of a U-shaped interstate, the clue wording requires one capital to be north and one south of Denver.
I'm still not going to come up with the correct capitals in 30 seconds without having a map to orient where the states lie.

"Something In The Way She Moves" was a different song, by James Taylor. (Harrison shamelessly borrowed the title as inspiration for the song lyric.) Yeah, I was gonna say something about that. So the contestants were 1.5 out of 5 for that category. And I think I heard Dillon say "Bla...

To reiterate Robert K S, I think the clue's wording was just a joke, like, "everyone knows Hack Wilson, *wink wink*", with the writers knowing full well that most people who get it right are getting it off Mookie [presidential last name]. Admittedly, I have a hard time understanding what ...

The FOODSTOCK category was not for me as I could not process any of them in time to ring in when Ken had finished reading the clue. X2, I knew the actual artists cold, on every clue but to figure out what the food pun they were looking for was NOT happening in xx seconds. Ben seems to have a good r...

When the players did not know BIBLE BOOKS BY QUOTE (looking forward to the standard category gripes on Reddit) for $800 then there was no way they were going to get the $1000 one. I blanked on the $800 but got Daniel, as that's one of the books I pre-called thy would sample. My initial instinct on ...

Imagine his reaction if he had been incorrect and suddenly thrust into a tie-breaker with (equally flappable) Crystal.

I've been impressed with Lisa's gets on Sports clues, save for not knowing Gordie Howe didn't play for the Bruins. Apparently, she's somewhat of a sports geek.
Iris' strength in this game was the ability to stay clam.

Nicole from Williston Park might have some explaining to do to people she knows and penalty was a rough one for it to have cost her the game. I always yell at the TV when the contestant I'm rooting for takes a wild guess and misses. Nicole blowing 2000 on DJ22 turned out to be the difference in her...

Kevin was $1400 of making his sole solve work for more than 2nd place while Nicole's 12600+3000 against 7400 & 5000 worked out well enough for her on DD3. So, if Kevin gets his DD, he would have had enough to win. That is unless Nicole padded her DD3 wager by more than 1200. Had to guess Methan...

What a train wreck of a game, capped off with a dopey final clue. Count me as another 'solve with zero confidence'. Couldn't it also have been "greater than"? That was the other choice. It was a coin flip until you applied the language of the clue to determine which one was correct. I gue...
