Re: Fourth Podium Poll for 11/5/2019 - Tuesday TOC (SPOILERS)
Just $2000.
Would have nailed the Deseret clue if I'd remembered the category, but I kneejerked "Brigham Young". That prevented a category sweep.
I *knew* I had heard that term "Kintyre", but couldn't pair it up with anything.
I know what a slip is, but have only heard the term said by itself, not paired up with "gown" or "dress".

You cannot pick up Lach Trash on a DD.opusthepenguin wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 1:29 pmHuh. For coryat, that's definitely the case. But I've always thought of lach trash as money you could hypothetically have picked up from the fourth podium without ever winning a buzzer race. You just "buzz in" when no one else does or after they're done giving wrong responses. DD money isn't available via this method.* Is this not the consensus understanding of "lach trash"?Woof wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 11:49 amYou just get the nominal values for DDs.
Per the J! Archive Glossary:
n. in a round or game of Jeopardy!, Triple Stumpers for which the correct responses are known by a Jeopardy! viewer playing along from home; also, the total dollar-value score associated with such Triple Stumpers.

$4000 in trash is a far cry from the $13,000+ on the previous day. I also said "ribbing" but didn't count it -- I agreed with Opus's comment even before I read it (which might be cause for worry).
"Pac-12" plus "Deseret" is a pretty instant U. of Utah, and I'm familiar with the derivation and usage of "iconoclast." For every other clue polled, though, I joined the players in an S&S, though I have to wonder if my response of "Cyrillic alphabet" would have been negged since I've never heard Alec call for a "be less specific".

I'm not the defending Jeopardy! champion. But I have played one on TV.

You're missing the "I missed all of them" option for me and TPH. I bet others would join us tomorrow.

Oooh! Good point. I can't put it in now or it'll bork the results. I'll try to remember to include the option in future polls. I want EVERYONE to be able to register in the poll, even losers like... well, no need to get specific.

For seeing results:
Can you see them if you sign out?
Is the button enacted for voting again? Vote to see results and re-vote the box out to restore normalcy?

I did find a way to hack this using all the cyber weapons at my disposal - I found a backdoor flaw in the security.

Spoiler
There's a secret code that says "view results" below the submit button.
But, if you add the 3 skunks, then the 29% is freefalling to 26% or so.
FWIW, I thought this was the hardest boards all year, or ever. I picked up $9200 on Tuesday, haven't really done the math on the others.
