I can't say exactly what it is, but what I can say is that I must be losing my edge.

If I was $80 behind, I'd be nervous myself. Well, at least you're still in the Tournament of Champions. Vahan: $30 [G2R3: FAME GAME] Marc: $110
[FAME GAME]And going into the final Fame Game, you can pick up an extra $25. Looking for a FICTIONAL CHARACTER. (whoosh as the puzzle board appears on screen)

Stacey: Top of the shop, #1.Greg: Marc, one thing I forgot to mention. While Major Wager is in fact out of play… Double Play is still in the game… (audience ooohs) If that were to come up, the game would change completely. Good luck and fire when ready.

(fade in) Greg: The audience is silent now, because we're about to go into the deciding Century Round. In a few minutes, we'll be giving away $1,600,000. If Marc wins this, he will take the all-time game show winnings record from Ken Jennings. This is serious business, folks. May I have 10 questions on the clock, please? Vahan: $30 [GAME 2: CENTURY ROUND] Marc: $135
(ding)The scores are Vahan $30, Marc $135. You know what's at stake here. Audience, every dollar is important, so do not even breathe.

Yes, I am. I don't know what happened to me. I just don't. I was making it look like it was nothing, and then this happens. Maybe I'm just tried. I mean think about how many games contestants on $ale of the Century under the 1984-1987 Bonus Round, as well as how many games contestants on Scrabble under the 1984-1986 straddling format had to play. 11 and 10 respectively.
