Being the type of character that I am, I decided to write one for it. This is why Jeopardy: Teen Tournament was written. In this FAQ I hope to fully cover extensively every question asked in the game, while also covering the basics of the game. ·--------------------------------· | Copyright Notice - search.copy | ·--------------------------------· This FAQ is copyright information of its author, Mike Truitt.

By the time it is submitted it will be complete to the best of my knowledge. If some more information comes about that I did not uncover, then I will certainly post it. This will also likely be the final formatting for this faq. I am likely to find questions that I have missed so there might be some additions there, but odds are that you will likely never even notice it. On an awesome note: Baseball - the catagory - was the one that broke the 4000 line mark. I just thought it was cool since I love baseball. After playing two strait games without having a new question, I figured it was as close to finished as I would get. There might be updates in the future, but for now, this looks like everything that I have got. ·=============================================================================· | Section 3.00 GAME BASICS seach.basics | ·=============================================================================· ·--------------------------------· | Game Information - search.info | ·--------------------------------· Jeopardy!

·=============================================================================· ·----------------------------------· | FAQs search.faq | ·----------------------------------· Question 01: What is the highest score possible? Answer 01: $240,800 is the highest amount of money that you can get Question 02: How do you get that much money in one game? Answer 02: It is complete luck. You will need to get every single question in the game correct. Likewise, you will also need all of the Daily Doubles to be on the $100 in the first round and $200 in the second round. They also need to be the last question of the round, and you need to bet all of your money on those questions. After that you will need to bet all of your money in Final Jeopardy and get the question correct. Like I said, you will need a supurb amount of luck in order to get that amount. Question 03: Alright, smarty! What is the most that you have won in a game? Answer 03: I have actually earned $115,400 dollars in one game. Question 04: Earlier you were going on and on about how great Daily Doubles are. What is so special about them? Answer 04: Simple really, Daily Doubles give you the ability to double your amount of money in one question. This can change the face of the game from a neck and neck battle to an all out blowout. However, if you risk it all and loose, then you have to work your way back to get anywhere near in contention. Question 05: Hey, you never said anything about Daily Doubles earlier! Answer 05: And that's not a question. ·=============================================================================· | Section 6.00 NOTES AND THANKS search.thank | ·=============================================================================· First off let me just say that a great deal of gratitude is expressed towards all webmasters on the Internet that spend their priceless time and hard earned money for the sole purpose of allowing people from all different walks of life, come together and discuss and help each other with video games.
