Having gotten halfway through my plan to gather statistics on 1000 wrong answers in the Jeopardy Archive, I have some preliminary results.
Top 5 categories I need to study:
History (US, Countries of the UK)
Geography (US, Bodies of Water, World Capitals)
Entertainment (Film and Television)
Literature (British, American and Poetry)
Science, Technology and Nature (Health/Medicine, Space)
Also, I seem to be doing slightly better in the highest value row in Double than I am in Single. Otherwise, the percentages all seem to be about what I'd expect.
Normally I'm a little jealous when I see a new Jeopardy! blog, but I think we can co-exist. ;-) I'll be following you.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I invite you to post your Coryats on my blog. And if you get the Game Show Network, they're replaying Season 25 episodes. (Extra practice!)
