Interesting Phil, though to be honest that's not really something I've ever
considdered in context of quiz shows, sinse it's usually quite easy for me
to here the answer and say my own.
Beware the grue!

Hi Dark,
Tonight while playing Jeopardy, I realized the reason to answer the clue
in
the form of a question.
The category was authors whose name starts with the letter A.
I knew the answer was Asimov, and I yelled out just "Asimov" as the
contestant was saying "Who was Asimov?"
So after I answered the question I could clearly hear the contestant
answer
it too, as he had to add the additional "who was" words to the beginning.
If he had only to answer Asimov, I might not have heard him clearly as I
was
saying the same thing.
So the question format was a form of delay, and I was able to answer most
of
the questions I knew just before the contestant did.
Phil
