Okay, maybe I'm the last person alive who watches Jeopardy, but since they've changed the scoring rules...well, on guy (who won tonight) has won a total of 17 games in a row, and has amassed over $600000 american currency...cold hard american currency, which our government cannot take all of...I don't know when the streak will stop, but HOLY CRAP! Over $600000 on JEOPARDY! I've seen people win with $8000, but the second place guy today LOST with 44000...daggone.

Errr - I think it ceases to become luck once it's done 17 times.

What's that saying? Once is fluke, twice is coincidence, three times is conspiracy?

Well by my count he's on his 6th conspiracy. Maybe we should have a little *chat* with him...

That is correct, he'll need to use $10,000 to get one

I thought that you could only play a max of 5 times then they brought someone new in. I am sure it is that way in the states? I could be wrong.

And you only need to buy bowels in wheel of Fortune LOL.

According to a friend that is a Jeopardy fiend they just changed the rules so you can win as much as you like. 600k is not bad for less then a months work [img]smile.gif[/img]
