Nope, never heard of 'em.

Hadn’t seen that, but not at all surprised. It was definitely a very problematic clue.MarkBarrett wrote: ↑Tue Jun 22, 2021 9:57 am

Rejected Webster because I did not think he was contemporaneous with Dickinson, but that was just sloppy clue parsing on my part. Another tally for Roget here.

Re: Grinch syndrome
I'd expect to see Savannah doing some groveling at the start of tonight's episode but it would have to be taped posthaste, with Savannah wearing the same outfit, etc... so maybe Michael RIchards makes a statement.alietr wrote:Yup.

It'll be interesting to see how Sony Pictures handles it, if they do anything at all.

The national institute of health Journal of the American College of Cardiology has used that term, along with many other sources. Maybe it could be noted to avoid the term in the future but “outrage” seems excessive.

What do people here think about "A Brief History" for $800? They accepted "the War of the Roses". Should that have been negged in favor of the more usual "WarS of the Roses"? Googling the plural returns mostly results about the conflict. Googling the singular returns almost entirely results about the Douglas/Turner movie.

Jeopardy has had a few issues with clues in the past that got people upset and I don’t recall an on air apology.
Another Roget here.

Got them from clue but only heard of Swimmer's Itch because I have eczema.

Felt they mentioned The Bahamas instead of Cuba to avoid social stigma. Thanks for providing the link.MattKnowles wrote: ↑Mon Jun 21, 2021 10:48 pm 42R. 1/4 on big clues. Got Kennedy but missed the others. Said Roget.

Tough game for me today. Said Robin Hood instead of The Lion King. I went 1 out of 2 for clues that I responded to with Robinhood.
Some clues that I missed that I want to get next time are Geographic Tongue (glossitis), ragtime, time immemorial, cry havoc, and safe as kittens.

Not sure what the clue meant by "Mainland." They highlighted the area on a map so it was clear what they were going for but the text seems weird.

Re: Monday, June 21, 2021 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
Either War of the Roses or Wars of the Roses should be acceptable. Lots of references to either. Didn't know that Wars of the Roses was the more common way to say it so I learned something new.Foretopman wrote: ↑Tue Jun 22, 2021 4:28 pm What do people here think about "A Brief History" for $800?

Just couldn't connect the dots here. I kept thinking the other work was literary for some reason.

It would be a mistake to look at Dickinson for historical information. The Crown, with some background in history, it's not. For instance I don't believe the poet ever met Thoreau or Alcott. It's not even clear whether she met Emerson when he stayed overnight at her brother's house.Mathew5000 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 23, 2021 2:16 amI watched all of Dickinson and no Websters appeared.

At the end of DJ, Emily was locked out and yet she didn’t hazard a guess on the Leyte clue. That $2000 would have broken the lock, even if the odds of guessing the right country were long
