    Derby Dead Pool 2024

    I do now. Two teams have Soul. BTW, 220 teams have Carter. Potentially more if any teams fell down sofa. Most since Zsa Zsa in 2014. Glynis and Draper are Drop 40. Putin, Kate Keltie, and Rhod Gilbert won't be. Nor Randy Jackson, who is on fewer teams than Scott Thorson. Should be enough to whet y'alls appetite till we're properly up.

    I don't yet have access to the master file but trawling through the submitted emails, at least one team has Soul.

    So .. What Do You Watch On TV?

    Yes. Mayim Bialik. She and Ken were rotating hosts for a couple years but just this past month she's gone down to only hosting side versions like Celebrity Jeopardy. She was competent enough but Ken outclassed her easily.

    I was able to access the full article. Yes, he died on the 29th and I have now issued your condolence points, promoted Cllr Smith to main team, and added Barczyk as new sub. An exciting first scoreboard follows as we await our first proper hit. 1. DeathByArsenic 0.98 2. CaptainChorizo 0.84 3. gcreptile 0.47 =4. Everyone else 0

    So .. What Do You Watch On TV?

    Current host is Ken Jennings. Previously the most successful Jeopardy contestant, and the road to him becoming permanent Jeopardy host was a very convoluted one you could write a book on but I'm glad it ended up with him as he is very much the best choice. Nails the "feels like he knows all the answers" vibe that Trebek had, and very witty as well. Further information may be given, especially during Final Jeopardy, though it's always going to be a few seconds of discussing it. Plus if a contestant gives a reasonable wrong answer Ken might explain the connection of the wrong answer to the right answer. Two boards (regular first round, plus Double Jeopardy where point values are doubled) and final Jeopardy is correct.

    So .. What Do You Watch On TV?

    30 minutes an episode is the perfect pace. Wouldn't like it nearly as much if it weren't so rapid fire.

    I have all the names of all celebs picked 2018-2024 in my database, including the dead. So something must have happened there, but given their names are nothing alike I have no idea how. Fixed now.
