Neither Arthur or Julia won the ToC, an upset happened.
For any Jeopardy gurus out there, how common is it for a wild card to win a tourney either a college, teen, ToC?

4 out of 9, mathematically speaking.

Can we put things under a spoiler cut? This is your first and only warning.

With this situation and "Emancipitation Proclamation" from earlier this year (or was it last?), I won't be surprised if we don't have anymore weeks for kids to show their smarts. Honestly, it might be for the best.

Well, Alex just explained something I didn't know earlier when it came to tournaments.
Those who don't make it to the semifinals get $5,000 Those who do, but don't advance to the finals get $10,000 Third place in the 2 day final gets a minimum of $25,000 (unless they already earned more) Second place gets a minimum of $50,000 (unless they already earned more) The champion, gets, or course, a minimum of $100,000.
Now this was mentioned during the Teacher Tournament, so I don't know if that holds for the other tournaments as well. If not, please let me know...

Don't know if this has been said around here at all, but if it has, a confirmation:

Really loving the celebrity episodes so far. My favorites so far being Debra Messing and Mo Rocca. Can't wait to see Zachary Quinto!

Brutal show today - the leader after Double Jeopardy! had just $4,800. Champion came away with $8,201.

Some hot chick named Theresa won yesterday. She got creamed by an old Indian lady who sounds like Priya from The Big Bang Theory.
That was the first time I was happy about a champion since Terri Pous last year.
