I got it. I needed to feel like I accomplished something today. I did accidentally enter a duplicate Alan, so you may wish to enter a new player 13461 on the next game you do.

Strange for a tri-get and the leader to finish in third.
Myron: Thanks for the work on the Blake game. Naturally, the game I did this afternoon had to have 3 players already in the Archive, so I'll try to remember to edit out the duplicate player tomorrow.
He should do that more often to explain how the QF round works and especially to name the viewing options.
Without fail every tournament has posters on message boards thinking they have figured out some loophole for those playing in later QF games or wondering why those contestants wagered too much or too little.

Only 1 hit for "Nuns on the Run" in the Archive, from 2003. I'd have to assume it gets at least 1 more hit sometime before that, right?
Bob's response on SONGS THAT "DO" is entered exactly as he gave it, so I didn't format it as a title, which would have needed 2 "diddy"s.
Very nice work of the writers to make it a "complete the lyric" clue rather than a "name the song" clue, since it would be cruel but necessary to neg the single-diddy title under which the song was originally recorded, just because the clue specified the Manfred Mann version.
edit: Wikipedia says that was the original title, but I can't find any documentation of that. I still think it's good to have phrased the clue as asking for a lyric instead of the title, so that Bob didn't have to be ruled wrong. edit again: I found an apparent re-release single of the Exciters' original with the title as "Do-Wah Diddy."

Is the clue entered exactly as written as well?
I assume you were posting about "the" instead of "there" in the quoted lyrics, but in case you weren't (since that's fixed), yes. I would have used one more comma and a hyphen, but they didn't.
That completes what I have of the 1991 CC. It would be great if the missing clues from F2 ever turn up as that will be all that keeps the CC from being completely finished a couple of days from now.

kingskip: I got a tip on FB yesterday morning about the Bruce game and saved myself a copy of it right away before even working on that last college game.
I have the upcoming 9 regular play games saved as well although their online position is not as precarious as a fresh YouTube upload can be.
