Well...I just took the Jeopardy online test tonight.
to be a contestant.

50 questions. I think...emphasis on think...I did ok. I won't know...I talked to IntravenousDemilo about the test, and he said they won't let you know your final score.

Anyone who took it and will take it tomorrow...good luck!

1. I take it tomorrow!
I actually tried out for the show many years ago. Went down to LA and took a written test, then if you pass that, you do an audition, standing there in the studio - but NOT at the sacred podiusm - with a little hotel desk bell on your hand you smacked when you knew the answer.

They said I had passed the test. But far more people pass the test than they can use, so I never got called up :(

Well, if all goes well tomorrow night...maybe THIS time you'll be chosen. Doug (IntravenousDemilo) told me that he tried out several years ago, without success...and, well...:-)

I hope you make it. :thumbsup:

11. My son passed the written, and then
went on to an audition. That was as far as he got.

I hope you make it. Being on the show is wonderful. :-) I'll bet winning feels even better...

IntraVenousDeMilo would know that better than me, though.... :-)

9. They tell everyone who doesn't make the cut...
..."You missed it by one." That's what they told us when I tried out nearly fourteen years ago.

10. I took it yesterday...
I type so damned slowly that I missed some answers. Others I just didn't know. I felt kind of dumb after taking it.

I hope you get a call!
