You get so mad at it.
So for those who don't know, the way the buzzer in Jeopardy works, and again, because it's Celebrity Jeopardy, and we know they're easier, the buzzer is even more important, right?
You get locked out if you come in too early.
But, of course, you also want to beat everyone.
So it's like the buzzer is really quietly the most important part of the game.
So I was really trying to stay calm, which is insane when you watch it back and see how uncalm I was the entire time about it.
But it is infuriating in Celebrity Jeopardy because the questions are being easier.
Yeah.
You can ask them in the show how you're, like, am I coming in too early?
Am I coming in too late?
And if I, and there was one thing, if I had to give people a piece of advice, because I did have a decent buzz in this game, you have to, and this is the most important thing.
You got to figure out what works for you.
And once you realize it, you have to just be like a metronome.
So I recognized in my last run, and I carried that over to this one, that the lights meant nothing to me.
And I was buzzing entirely based on Ken's voice going up at the end.
So I wasn't even looking at the lights, purely listening to the voice.
And I thought I was coming in...
uh early but i was coming in late so i started going a little earlier and then i was buzzing correctly so from that point on i was like always go in earlier than you're comfortable with intuitively and do it off of his voice so really you have to like pay attention within the show to what's working and then stay in that rhythm that was the thing that i remember this is like listening to a quarterback and a center described like a cadence for a snap cap
One more little... I don't know how you're... You said you did the wrist strategy.
Some people do behind the back.
