Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

I saw something about him on the ticker on CNN Headline News, after 31 days he has made $1,022,460! He only made $17,500 on day 31, though (I never thought I'd hear myself say only $17,500.

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

He seemed kind of off last night. He definetly wasn't hitting the
buzzer as fast as he usually does, and I don't think he was getting
the same percentage correct as he usually does. He also took a risk
with his wager on the second daily double of double jeopardy, which is something he doesn't tend to do.

Of course, Ken Jennings on an off night is still better then 99.9% of us ;)

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

Would I win if he loses any day other than Thursday? :p

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

I meant, is this a "will he lose thursday?, yes/no?" bet, or "what day will he lose?" type of bet?

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

It is a "will he lose thursday?, yes/no?" bet.


Disclaimer: I'm only making a bet with 1 person. It looks like Jeff is going to bet me here. Whoever I bet: winner will recieve $5 in their paypal account.

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

What if he doesn't lose, per se, but resigns or steps down. Thus he wouldn't lose and David Kelly will lose.

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

That's odd I heard the exact opposite on the news. Consider the fact that an audience must have seen him loose. There would have been a ton of leaks to the media saying that he lost. The only possible alternative is that he won so much that he will be invited back another season.

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

It's probable that Jeopardy doesn't tape in front of a live audience. Have you ever heard an audience clapping, or even seen an audience on the show? There could be audience like you said, but I find it unlikely.

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

i know that there is an audience as that my parents visited the set and there are audiences there. Here is how jeopardy works..they tape 2 days a week 5 shows per day. i agree that there would be leaks if he lost but from what i have read he wins through the end of the season. The question will be if he will be back next season. I personally am getting bored with him because he seems to have no personality. oh well we will find out as time goes on

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

i find it interesting that the same year they get rid of the 5-day limit, ken comes along and remains champion for an insane number of shows. this makes me wonder how long some of the people that were stopped after 5 days in the past would have stayed on the show if they had gotten rid of the limit sooner.

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

Ken just won his 37th day of Jeopardy, totaling $1,226,660 won. Today, he won $52,000 tieing the 1-day high score for the third time.

Oh, and I believe David Kelly just lost his bet.

Re: REAL Jeopardy: Ken Jennings
 

I happened to catch Ken on Leno last night. From how he anserwed the questions it sounds like he's going to be back in September, the beginning of next season. His boss at work knew he was winning and had to make up excuses for him for multiple weeks.
If he wins today it would be his 38th day. They film 5 episodes a day so that's less than 8 days of actually filming. It look slike we might be watching Ken for w long time to come.
