Actually, I think the Twin's owner, Carl Pohlad, is cringing right along with Bud! He is talking that he can't change the payroll, and will downsize again next year!
That means we could lose some really key people!

Okay, riddle friends - as promised, I'd like to debut my Jeopardy game this morning on the riddle thread. This will be a trial version of the game, with just a couple of categories in each of the Jeopardy rounds. I'd like to get a feel for how this might work!
Here is what I had put together for the complete Jeopardy Game...
<center>Welcome to the DIS CB
game!
</center>
This is going to be the slowest-moving Jeopardy game you've ever seen. Other than that, it should work much like good old Jeopardy did, except that anyone can join in any time and play for as long as they like.
Each weekday, sometime between 7:30 - 8:30 a.m. eastern time, I'll post the answer. Your job is to supply the question. Post your questions right on this thread. The first to post the correct question will get the points for that question. You'll also have control of the board and can select the next answer.
If you post the wrong question, your point total will be reduced by the points associated with the question.
I'll accept answers through noon - 12:30 p.m. eastern time. (The exact time will depend on my work schedule). I will try to give a final notice a few moments ahead of time so that you can post your last-minute thoughts. Note that ALL wrong questions posted will be penalized. At that time I'll post the correct question and adjust point totals and I'll ask the DISer who got the correct question to select the next answer. You'll have until 7:30 - 8:30 the following weekday to let me know.
I recognize that post editing can happen, but I'm putting that thought out of mind, knowing as I do the wonderful integrity of all of our CB community......besides - it's only a game.
Note that the answers and questions will increase in difficulty as the point values rise. There will also be one Daily Double in the Jeopardy round and two in the Double Jeopardy round. If you hit the daily double you can wager any portion of your current points or up to 150 points in the Jeopardy round and 300 points in the Double Jeopardy round if you find your point total to be less than 150 or 300 in those respective rounds. (These amounts may change. I'm worried that there may be enough players to dilute the ability to score points without the Daily Doubles and that someone may answer JUST the Daily Doubles and win the game.)
After the two Jeopardy rounds are played, all DISers who have a positive point total will get to play Final Jeopardy. In that round, I'll post a category and give you a day to PM me your wager. You can wager any part or all of your points. After all of the wagers have been received, I'll post the Final Jeopardy answer. All left playing will then PM me their Final Jeopardy question.
I'll post the results after that!
The winner will get a fabulous prize from yours truly. Perhaps it will be something smart-looking...
Did I mention that kibitzing is strongly encouraged?
====================
For today's Jeopardy test, we'll start off with two Jeopardy-round categories:
Comedians
10, 20, 30, 40, 50 are available
All In A Word
10, 20, 30, 40, 50 are available
And to get things started, I'll post the first answer, All In A Word for 10:
This disorder's name is derived from the Greek for "without appetite"

Good morning Riddlers. PM on the way...
Diane, I'm looking forward to more pictures. Will all of the exterior pieces be delivered together or in stages? How many trucks will it take to carry an entire house?!
And now, back to Jeopardy... What is anorexia?
