Marshall (5K) chose a TDD three clues in on the 2K Poetry; Xiaoke added 1200 to start the rd. off.

In “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” he wrote “I have measured out my life with coffee spoons”.

“Who is Eliot?”…10K & the lead for Marshall. Later Marshall (12,400) picked DD #2 at 2K within The Elements W/ Style; Nathaniel followed w/ 10,200 & 5K was the score Xioake waited on. 3K & 1st place were up for grabs.

You’ll have that certain glow w/ this element discovered in 1669 & named for the way it glows in the dark.

“What is…luminium?”…uh-uh- phosphorus. Time sounded prior to the 400 answers from the World of Video Games, The Elements W/ Style & A Full Ride.

  1. We end this episode with a triple stumper as nobody knows about geography.
    Grade: F+
    Rating: 4

  2. Disappointing show indeed. First time this tournament Trebek stumps the panel in both DDs and in Final. With no new WHEEL today, we end a disasterous game show day (except the one car win in the Low Showcase, which has no bearing on the day).

    My rating – 2 of 10 (losing show)

    • It doesn’t count for we got a car shutout.

        That is exactly what I just said. Car wins in bonus games in today’s case do not count in my analysis. Your comments you just made are the same as saying car wins in bonus games do not exist. But of course, a degree of license figures in my ratings as it did today.

    They should’ve had Wizards of Waverly Place instead of Hannah Montana for the Selena Gomez clue.

    I got the Cheyenne clue, but fell for the same trap answer in FJ.
