Has anyone been watching Jeopardy! the past month and a half?

To bring anyone else up to speed: They recently removed the 5 day limitation to champions.. I.E., before a contestant could win five in a row, then be rotated out for fresh players. Now, a contestant can keep coming back (And earning more winnings) as long as they continue to win.

One contestant, Ken, has so far, over 28 days on show, won over $920,000.

Some people are smart, they win game shows. But that's not the point here, the point is that Bummey's awesome for keeping the Tribes 1 sig, and using the term 'Shazbot'.

That's actually taken from Tribes2. Note the blue/green background.

Ken is my hero. I wonder if he gets to a million if he'll just quit or keep going.

Yes, and he is very much a Mormon.

?? For winning the monies?

This whole thing is pretty funny... reminds me of when Who Wants to Be A Millionaire was on and it was pointed out that people on Jeopardy couldn't win like they could on easy ol WWWTBAM. Well... over a course of over 30 days this guy might actually pull it off. Pretty cool.

Interesting. I meant to see today's, but according to some online papers he did indeed break $1,000,000. This is day 30 for him.

Did anyone happen to see today's?

He could have broke the one day winning record TWICE and he chose to tie it both times.

You know, he should go on "Who wants to be a Super Millionaire" after he is finally done with Jeopardy...

Yes, and it was ridiculous. It was the first time I'd ever seen him, and... damn.

Im not sure gameshows want him on there.

Id be willing to bet someone is going to offer to give them the cap that lets them go onto pepsi's "play for a billion, in exchange for splitting the prize money"
