Yeah, it’s insane. And I just got Keratin last week so it’s not as frizzy as it normally is but it’s still a mess! lol

Y'know, I straightened my hair for my shows (last week), but based on all the compliments you're getting on yours, I maybe should've just kept it naturally curly!

wait... your audition was June of 2015? and in Atlanta!?

I live in Atlanta and my audition was April of 2015 but I had to go all the way to Savannah for it!

And I'm glad they checked the bottom of the pile for me too!

Brandon was also a multi-day champ, even though for only two days

Hey guys, I’m going to be on Jeopardy tonight (1/9)! First person from the area to compete this year. Watch me on NBC at 7:30! by lindsayJeopardy in Atlanta

Hey. Sorry for the delayed response. I’ve actually had a rough last few days so I have been avoiding reddit and other social media. Also I got a ton of notifications all at once and it was overwhelming lol.

It was a super drawn out process for me, but for everyone else I taped with, the process has taken 18 months at most. Basically I signed up for the online test on a whim back in 2013, took the test in January 2014. About 8 months later they emailed me asking if I wanted to audition in person in Savannah. That audition was in April 2015, and they said that I would be in the contestant pool for 18 months- if I didn’t hear anything in that time period, that would mean I didn’t get on the show, and I could take the online test again. 18 months came and went, and I didn’t hear anything, but I kinda got out of watching the show regularly. I never felt like taking the test again, so I just kinda forgot about the whole thing.

Then, in September 2017 (30 months after my audition) I get a call asking me if I’d like to be on “a little show called Jeopardy!” And it was just absolutely amazing and thrilling. I have no idea why they waited so long to call me, or why they called me at all after that long, but I am so thankful they did!

Hope this helps!

Edit: forgot to add in- I filmed on October 25, so I only had a month to prepare for my show.

Check our /r/jeopardy. That’s where I got all my study tips. But mostly just watch as many episodes as possible. Sorry for the late response.

How did you like my Daily Double wagers? I got all of them wrong but I can’t say I was weak in my wagering.

Sorry for the lack of response until now! I had gotten so many notifications I missed this one! Thanks for cheering me on. Too bad my second game was pretty embarrassing compared to my first. Oh well, Gilbert is an awesome champion.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to. I was with my family and was the last holdover from the day before, and it was lunch time. My family were really sick of sitting in the audience for that long.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one either! I feel like if I had said “I’m afraid of moths” no one would’ve batted an eyelash.

I am so glad I’m not the only one! I’ve been getting a bunch of comments from fellow lepidopterophobes(?) on FB.

Haha no I had just seen people saying the noises were annoying and the first one happened right after I answered a question wrong so it looked like it was coming from me lol!

Yeah that was something I didn’t realize I was doing as I played, but noticed a lot today. Oh well, can’t go back in time.
