That was a triple stumper?

That was a triple stumper?

Yes. 5th century Europe will not always play into the strengths of the players.

Diandra played no DDs and had the lowest Coryat to use that "advantage" into winning the game. Diandra did lead in one stat: the "please" tally

Fun to see an Internet Archive clue today.

I'll take the FJ! clue up to 40% as I figured out how to connect the dots

Yes. 5th century Europe will not always play into the strengths of the players.

But most J players are good with geography and should know the name of continental Denmark.

Data point: I'm weak in geography, but I correctly guessed the name of continental Denmark.

I've never heard of Jutmark/Jutland/Jutvania.

[Robert K S]

I've never heard of Jutmark/Jutland/Jutvania.

Sounds like a poll option.

[DBear]

I've never heard of Jutmark/Jutland/Jutvania.

Then start reading the archives. Seriously, people.

Jutland is also the name of the most famous (and virtually only) World War I naval battle between the British and German fleets, fought in the North Sea.

Instaget FJ for me.

Remember when that would lead to 4-5 unplayed clues? I like this era for that.

What's the reason for the change? Is it because they don't announce the parting gifts the contestants receive?

[AndyTheQuizzer]

I was listening to some stuff on Jeopardy Radio on TuneIn recently and I think that it’s a combination of “tightening some things in post” and “Ken and Mayim talk slightly faster than Alex used to”.

I'm what they call "middlin'" in geography and didn't get this one. But I was all over Cartagena earlier.

[Bamaman]

Instaget FJ as the carousel keeps spinning.
