@ **CommaSense** while you are updating, you could add my Notes won 2002 Chevy Tahoe also. 🙂 ---

(notfrommensa, it looks like you mixed up some of my final scores with some of my Coryat scores.) I like to point out that if my fourth Final Jeopardy clue had been easier (or, assuming Emily wouldn’t have gotten it, just swapped with the one from my fifth game, which I wagered $0 on but got right), my total would have been exactly $125,000. I apologize **Seaborgium** , I got your win totals from **J!Archive**. I either read it wrong, or they were wrong. Sorry for my mistake. ---

Unfortunately, I only caught one of **Seaborgium** ’s games. Has he finished, or is he still going? If someone can tell me his final status, I’ll update THE List (and add **Serenata67** at the same time). Thanks. ---

Congratuations to **Seaborgium**! 3rd place at the ToC is fantastic. I was on the regular Jeopardy in 1994. Had a hard time figuring out the buzzer, doubled through on a daily double, and the final jeopardy answer, but still finished 2nd with $13,000. Taped the Wed the week before the Northridge earthquake. Had I won, I would’ve had to have come back the next week, just in time to experience the quake… Think the episode aired in June; my Mom made a tape of the episode, not sure where it went. Crazy, the number of Dopers who’ve been on the show. ---
