- $74,133 is the seventh-highest single-day score of all time. James holds 5 of the top 7 single-day scores.
- At $771,920, James stays in 4th place in all-time winnings (including tournaments), $1,813 behind David Madden.
- James has now heard 142 consecutive clues without giving an incorrect response. The record is at least 179.
- $51,400 is the highest combined Coryat Score for a game since April 25, 2016 (also $51,400). December 23, 2009’s game had $51,600.
- Effective in first on buzzer stats: James 63.64% (35/55), Gregory 14.55% (8/55), Samantha 21.82% (21/55).
