Correct response: What is a filibuster?
More information about Final Jeopardy:
Are you a Hamilton fan? You can blame Aaron Burr for the Senate filibuster. When he was presiding officer of the Senate in 1806, he oversaw the removal of a rule allowing Senators to end debate and proceeding to a vote by simple majority. However, because it was not replaced with any other rule limiting debate, filibusters became theoretically possible, indefinitely preventing votes. However, during World War I, after a group of 12 anti-war Senators blocked legislation that would have allowed President Wilson to arm merchant vessels, the concept of “cloture” (a procedure to end debate) was instituted. At the time, two-thirds of voting Senators were required to enact cloture. Eventually, that requirement was dropped to 60 (and controversially currently sits at a simple majority for all Presidential nominees.) The House of Representatives does not permit filibusters.

Tournament of Champions projections:
With a projected 134 regular-play games to go prior to the Tournament of Champions cutoff, after 500,000 simulations, our model shows:
An average of 3.9605 5+-time champions (standard deviation 1.656).
An average of 7.1254 4+-time champions (standard deviation 2.036).
An early cutoff took place 6.709% of the time (or a 5-game winner will be left out).
Will Dawson qualified 29.397% of the time.
Anneke Garcia qualified 79.017% of the time.
Dave Leffler qualified 58.805% of the time.
Jonathan Dinerstein qualified 32.342% of the time.
Alex Schmidt qualified 11.177% of the time.
John Presloid qualified 2.837% of the time.
Jackie Fuchs qualified 0.342% of the time.
Andy’s Thoughts:
- In a couple of cases, Will seems to be putting the emphasis on the wrong syllable (Gloria Estefan for one). No, this does not make the response incorrect. In general, as long as the response can still be reasonably be spelled the same way as the pronunciation, the judges will accept the response.
- Another thing that I’ve noticed: A viewer that generally dislikes a contestant, for whatever reason, is more apt to lose the ability to judge a player objectively, thus leading to increased claims of rules violations.
- Morgan seemed very quick to respond tonight when Alex called on him, to the effect that it seemed like his phrasing was crossing over Alex calling on him. Yes, it was there. Part of me thinks it might have been sound editing, so as to fit all of the clues into the show (after all, both rounds barely survived a less-than-a-minute-to-go call).
- On that note: when did Jeopardy! become the PGA Tour of yesteryear, where so many viewers are armchair judges, and expecting some sort of satisfaction when trying to bring these violations to the attention of the show?
- Will was in a tight spot on that last Daily Double; over the past season and a half, $2000-level Daily Doubles have played at only 54%. (An average Daily Double in Double Jeopardy has played at 65% over the same time frame.). If it were an $800 Daily Double, it’s a situation where you try to put the game away then and there, but it isn’t. I don’t think I’d have gone any higher than $3,600 if I was in that spot. Of course, it ended up being that a bet of $2,601 or higher would have made Final Jeopardy! immaterial, but the results of Final turned that into a moot point anyway.
- Effective in first on buzzer stats: Will 45.45% (25/55), Morgan 25.45% (14/55), Susan 29.09% (16/55)
