The Jeopardy contestant search exam

So this has started. Day 1, Test 1 would be wrapped up by now.

I'm thinking I'll do tomorrow's which is 9 pm EST. It's either that or Thursday at 11 pm.

Should be good and exhausted for it in either case.
 
Here's yesterday's. I got 39 out of 50 which would be good enough.

That's a practice score. I'll be doing today's offical-like.

That felt like a pass. I'll have to wait for someone to post the answers but I feel pretty confident I will once again be eligible and not get called for an audition.
 
Bastards got me with the very first question. Couldn't think of the name of that pain-in-the-butt Japanese chick who tells everyone how to unclutter their homes.

Marie Condo, I thought of too late.
 
*Kondo

Yap, got either 39 or 40 depending if they accept Lottery (rather than The Lottery)

I guess prolly not. It's a proper title.

39
 
Actually I put 747 rather than Boeing 747. That may not be acceptable.

Don't matter. I'm okay without it.
 
Well then if that happens I'm lying about the result RJ.

Gamelive STAYS.

Please do NOT shut down the site when I do better than Muddy.
 
Found the list of answers. I got 22. Ugh.
 
I was missing all of them, got bored and bailed.

Best of luck to all participants!
 
I found last night's very soft. 43.

Couldn't remember that stupid Lady Gaga / Bradley Cooper song (but got lucky on the French "Sun" King question - I always confuse Louis XIV and XVI - but I guessed right.)
