A guy from a fantasy baseball board I'm on told me that he got on the show and won. His episode airs in the near future. He didn't say if it was Arthur that he beat.

Arthur might've played for a tie on that episode too.

I got the Bieber one. MJ and Timberlake started out in groups, Taylor Swift was 16 when her debut came out, and I couldn't think of anyone else aside from Bieber who could possibly fit.

SHE DID IT

Though Arthur kind of beat himself by betting big on Daily Doubles and getting them wrong. Same thing happened to Jennings when he lost.

Hypothetically, couldn't three people plot to tie every day with $8,000 apiece or something?

I'd imagine there are rules in place against collusion.

I guess the only way this could work is if the players in 1st and 2nd bet down to exactly the amount of the 3rd place player and tanked the answer, and the 3rd place player bet 0. Wouldn't be hard to sniff out. In fact, rather obvious.

It would become pretty obvious after Day 2. Probably Day 1.

No doubt it would be obvious. Get me the jeopardy! rule book and we'll see if there's anything on collusion.

There's probably two rules:

1. "Jeopardy" decides all rules.
2. See Rule #1.

Nickname shared by george armstrong custer, native american chief crazy horse, and a member of a 1930s comedy act.

And no one got it.
