I guess the new modified jackpot payout system worked sensibly last week. In any case it means for the third week in a row the winning team took home some dinero and that trend may continue. Never fear,over half of the potential jackpot is rolling over. I kind of like it.
Here's the synopsis of the night. The questions were kind of hard. Team #11 Procrastinating Purple Bags eked out a .16-point win for overall score. Team #19 Suck it Trebeck! won round 4 and provided these categories for next week's round 3:
- Avenue Q
- Earth Wind & Fire
- The Rhetoric by Aristotle
- Monty Python
- Oregon History
- Heroes
- Distance Runners
- Bull Durham
- The New Yorker
- HTML Code
- Coldplay
- Celebrity Real Names
- Famous Penile Deformities
Results:
Procrastinting Purple Bags - 30.16
Jake & Chris Never Get to 'Peel' - 30
What do you call a guy with no car in AZ? Joaquin Phoenix. - 28.16
Suck it Trebek! - 27
Saucy Puppet Show - 25.5
Hey, for "famous penile deformities," should the question be such that the answer is a person a with famous deformity, or such that the answer is the name of a deformity?
Also: if you google "famous penile deformity," this blog is the tenth suggested site, which doesn't say much for the state of research into famous penile deformities.

Tim,
Feel free to go with either interpretation of the category. We only included it to make Ben happy.

If I am the Ben mentioned above, you may have been misinformed about what parts of the body I find worthy of attention.
Or disfigurement.
