Pidge's take on Alex has changed. Before the show aired, her memory of it was that she tanked early and the eventual winner ran away with it. She didn't even mention the Nerdcore thing (she claimed to have few memories of it). Once it aired, her impressions changed, especially when she saw ho

I also would like to know how Pidge though it played in the room; I know some people who are getting rather bothered by it, which I kind of found surprising. On Fri, Oct 14, 2016 at 8:26 AM, Bob Jersey wrote: > > Diner, to PGage, Diner, Jim Ellwanger, and Dave Sikula, in part: >> >> BTW, Alex is

Dave, Congratulations to Pidge for being a great two-day champion. Sorry to see her fall on the third day... she really looked like she was enjoying herself all along, which is all this viewer wants in a champion. I did get a laugh on her second day, during the "Meet the Press" category (I thi

Pidge was delightful - a great champion. I will think of her now whenever I have to say "Lake Titicaca". It seemed like there were three strong players in that game, so it was a satisfying win. On Tuesday, 11 October 2016, Diner wrote: > Spoiler alert to anyone who hasn't caught up, but... > > C

Spoiler alert to anyone who hasn't caught up, but... Congrats to Pidge on a wonderful job! Long may she reign. And I was quite impressed that she applauded when her opponents landed on the Daily Doubles. Not only did she earn the championship, she earned bonus points for sportsmanlike (sportswo
