:O
Is anyone else greatly disturbed by this rumor??
Apparently it got leaked that Ken lost in October and left with 2.5 million.
I don't know how true it is, but I'm worried.

Unless they kept getting daily doubles and went for like 3 billion.
i wasnt talking about his money total. it's just that nobody ever looked this dominant for even five days.

ah yes, okay.
I think Jeopardy is really smart. This probably isn't much more money then they would have given away normally, but now everyone is talking about the show again and its likely getting much better ratings.
I wonder if the 5 day rule was never in place, would this sort of thing happen a lot.

that's what i'm wodering.... the way this guy's been capable of smashing the daily record, and ALWAY being completely dominant, it seems unlikely that it would happen often.
and i cant help but being a little suspiscious about it happening not long after the 5 day thing was lifted. I'm just too much of a conspiracist i think.

DUDE. i was so upset, on the TV Guide channel they totally gave it away like, when he lost and how many games he had won. I was like, is this even legal? I mean, it's on a channel that a lot of people watch, this wasn't like the internet. fkjsofdj9isdjsdf.

i hope the rumour about him losing is not true. he just looks unbeatable. unless he himself gives up and walks away. if the rumour is in fact true then it'll be very interesting to see who've taken him down.
as for the possibility of others being able to win as much as ken did when they're in the 5-day limit, it seems unlikely. if you look, most of the people who wins up to the 5 days wouldn't have such a big margin when they win. they'll probably win by a few thousand and that's it. nothing as dramatic as what ken have done so far.

Oh, he's still on? I turned it on a few weeks ago, and he wasn't there.
I just assumed he'd lost. Maybe it was a rerun?

if anyone still care about this dude, he just passed the most amount ever won in a game show last night. his total winnings are now $2,197,000. it's cool to see someone winning that much money on jeopardy rather than like, some 'who can eat the grossest shit' type of show.

I don't know. I mean it's cool that he's super super smart, but I mean I can think up some really gross shit to eat. Like shit with corn in it, or corn and carrots, or corn, carrots and chunks of tuna, or corn, carrots, tuna and 73 year old mushrooms. Or..... okay, for some reason I don't think you meant "shit" literally, but anyone who could do that, deserves a million bucks in my opinion. Of course they wouldn't be allowed to keep it, it would all go to their asylum fees.

I care! I've been watching faithfully every night, because I'm
just that cool.
Uh, except I missed tonight. However, I think it's safe to assume he won...
