Hi there everyone who still shows up here. I realize I haven't been around for a while now, but I wanted to let everyone know that I'll be appearing on Jeopardy! this Monday (January 29th). I'll be on the podium on the right.
Check your local listings so you know when to watch and find out how I did...
Hey, isn't that Faustus?

Whoooo Faustus!! Great job!
I taped it so I wouldn't miss it.
Faustus won the first round, and started off the second round decicively answering all the "Celluloid Love" questions about movie romance, starting off with the Princess Bride! He played conservatively, only buzzing in when he knew the answer, and finished in a respectable third place for the second round. The scores were $14,000, $12,000, and $11,600.
Final Jeopardy's category is American Plays: "This drama is set at a summer home in August 1912; Act 1 takes place at 8:30 am; Act 4 is 15 1/2 hours later, at midnight".
Faustus got it right, but only bet $7599. The other challenger bet it all, and won the game. The defending champion got the question wrong, and ended up with one dollar.
All in all, I was impressed with how well he did, and how well he handled himself. He seemed calm and composed, and even like he was having fun, and he expressed himself well when talking and answering questions.
If you want the answer to Final Jeopardy or have any other questions, ask Faustus himself. I'm sure he's dying to tell us everything, and I apologize for jumping the gun and stealing your thunder Faustus, I just thought it was worth sharing immediately!
