3. He's in second to the champion--
The champ has 10k or so; Aristus has 4k. The third contestant isn't even really in the picture at this point.

Keep it up, Aristus! :)

2. Thanks for the reminder!

Hey Aristus! Looking good.

On edit... damn, I'm impressed. From some earlier posts... I have a feeling Aristus doesn't win, but it clearly isn't because of his lack of knowledge. Damn that luck. He's rocking!

6. I hate this... it seems so unfair when two really good contestants...
Edited on Wed Jun-14-06 07:03 PM by Misunderestimator
go against eachother... he would have won against anyone else. They were less than a couple of thousand apart. And here it is... drumroll....

Edited to remove the spoiling comment (sorry all)

15. You did great
I knew (guessed) at the final Jeopardy.

You were cool as a cucumber the whole time. Very impressive. BTW the champ looked like he was some sort of Bond movie villian (the Connery era)

:hi:

22. He was actually very nice; very shy and reticent.
And he was extremely nervous the whole time. That's why he has trouble smiling for the camera. He really was a good guy. I don't mind having lost to him. I would have been if he had been a real jerk, but he wasn't.

19. I watched it!
Good job! You made a really nice run at the end. I thought you were going to catch him! :bounce:


BTW, I would've said FDR and Teddy R. for the final answer.

I enjoyed watching you! :hi:

20. That was very exciting!
You did really well. Too bad Senor Univac was the current champion. You were very impressive!
