Dopers on Jeopardy! THE List

[5_time_champ]

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

[notfrommensa]

@seaborgium

The numbers are off for me.

1: $19,917
2: $17,017
3: $28,801
4: $2,735
5: $16,400
6: $13,199 ($2,000 for second place)

For a grand total of $84,870 from my victories. (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.

[Blut_Aus_Nord]

Are there any videos of any of these episodes?

[GilaB]

No official videos - Jeopardy doesn’t post.

You read it wrong.

[Sigmagirl]

Stefan (seaborgium) is playing in the Tournament of Champions. His appearance (I hope the first of several) is Friday, May 14.

[GilaB]

Wow! I hope it went well.

[Wile_E]

Go Stefan! He just talked about all the names he’s been called on the Internet, but he didn’t mention being called Spicoli.

[Wile_E]

And he gets one of the Wild Card spots in the semi-finals!

[notfrommensa]

And he made it to the finals, alas coming in 3rd place. winning an additional $50K

And never answered a Final Question correctly.

Spurred by another Jeopardy! thread, I thought I’d create a new one for the purpose on compiling the authoritative list of Dopers who have appeared on the show. Here’s my latest version. Please advise of any additions or corrections.

2000 Mr. Moto

We can also use this thread to recount our experiences on the show, answer questions from the teeming thousands, etc. (I had written several paragraphs about my experience, but the frigging hamsters ate them. What the %@&#'s matter with the SD servers in the afternoon? I’ll re-write them later.)

I was on the College Tournament, 2004. I was out after the first round (got FJ wrong), so I won $5000.00.

@Serenata67

I was second place in my particular game.

[commasense]

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.

@notfrommensa

And never answered a Final Question correctly.

Was he the guy who answered “Whiffenpoof Cheese” in FJ when the correct answer was Leidenkranz?

[Gray_Ghost]

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.

@ministryman

Yes, here is thesummary of the show.

And to commasense, seaborgium came in third in the TOC. And won 50K.
