Re: New old games in the J! Archive
$41,000 for three days (under old values) is quite impressive. Mark (or anyone else for that matter), would you happen to know about Gordon's stats on the day he was defeated?

Well done making the most of what you had to work with!MarkBarrett wrote: ↑Sat Nov 02, 2019 12:44 pm In the category of something is better than nothing I added 12/20/90: http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=6457
It's a partial game found here: https://www.facebook.com/nthnhwtt/video ... cation=ufi
with 2 games edited into 13 minutes and change leading to of course a lot missing. There were some peeks at the scoreboard though not enough. Thanks to my scoresheet for that game I know where the DDs were located. The rest is a lot of guesswork and messing around to get the numbers to work.
I'll tackle the second game at a later time.

I would argue that the relevant portion of the clue is "this fertility goddess", and thus thatThough a Beatty film shared its name with this fertility goddess, it bore little fruit at the box office

I filled in 3/13/02: http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=1720
The links (only 3 - made the task easier) should all work, in addition to the player pics.

Re: New old games in the J! Archive
In a similar vein, I've found a portion of Dave Willis game 5 on YouTube, uploaded by one of the challengers in that game. It contains his and Dave's interviews, the last eight clues of DJ, and FJ. https://youtu.be/eDWTe1V_jQIMarkBarrett wrote: ↑Sat Nov 02, 2019 12:44 pm In the category of something is better than nothing I added 12/20/90: http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=6457

It was uploaded to YT back in November 2012, but thanks for finding it.

Wayne was on 6/24 - 6/26/92
When time allows I will try to get what I can from the clips into the Archive.

Re: New old games in the J! Archive
I added what was available of 1/30/92: http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=6474
Drew deserved to lose for trying to beat Dave by a buck when it was Dave's last day anyway. Karma.

Re: New old games in the J! Archive
Especially from an exact two-thirds situation. Speaking of which, Alex said to Drew at the end of DJ, "You have one third again as much as Dave," but he should have said "one half" instead. If the scores are x and .75x, that's when the leader has one third again as much as the trailer.MarkBarrett wrote: ↑Sat Nov 23, 2019 11:42 am I added what was available of 1/30/92: http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=6474

Using what was available I added 6/24/92: http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=6475
It is no fun trying to get the scores to match the few peeks at the scoreboard.

See a few posts above for the link to the YT video I used. The source was not from my tape collection.Bamaman wrote: ↑Sat Nov 23, 2019 5:43 pmA weird taping you had there.MarkBarrett wrote: ↑Sat Nov 23, 2019 5:28 pm Using what was available I added 6/24/92: http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=6475

Re: New old games in the J! Archive
Even if the system goes down around Christmas or NYE I'm making sure I get at least one old one in for December.
I filled in 3/21/02: http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=1726
All of the links work.
Bobby really let that game get away as after clue 16 in the DJ round he led 15200 to 5200 to 3800 with the DDs already gone. Maggie showed how much can be done with less than half a round (plus the FJ! round).
Funny, when I started the game there was already a correction suggestion sitting there. It's a common thing with Sofia being mistaken for Sarah as the cold opening was marked for the wrong Clue Crew member. All good now.

Finally closing the book on April 16, 1996, Tom Kalita vs. Ted Buyniski vs. Barbara Andrae. This was the game following Michael Dupee's 5-game run, so all three players were new.
It's been so long since I started this one, I can't remember what the interesting clues might be. I'll give clue of the game to "P"s for $400 (J!), a fun etymology.
I was surprised that there was no prompt for a first name on LITERATURE for $600, since there are a number of writers with that name.
This is Rosy Crucifixion's first appearance in the Archive, although "Tropic" is the crux of the clue. And thanks to FJ!, we also welcome Joanna Pettet, Kathleen Widdoes, and Joan Hackett to the J-Canon, as parts of clues. Google spellcheck recognized that I had mistyped "Candice" Bergen, "Joanne" Pettet and Joan "Hacket", which is both impressive and creepy. It also wants me to do spellcheck as 2 works, but I'm not gonna.
Have a great weekend everybody.

Yes, please, even if it means having to adjust the date for the game already in there marked for March 4th.wescovington wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 7:51 pm I have access to games on March 4-5, 1985 if anyone wishes to add them.
PM to me or Myron (or Andy or RKS), public link for video uploaded...Mail a VHS or DVD...we're flexible and always happy to add any old games.

Re: New old games in the J! Archive
I knew that one because I had stayed at a small French hotel once and was bitten up by what I thought were fleas (but were almost certainly bedbugs in retrospect) and had to go to a pharmacy to get something to relieve the itching. That word in French is forever etched in my brain.MinnesotaMyron wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 6:57 pmThis brownish-purple color derives its name from the French word for "flea"Spoiler
