Title: Will King Ken be de-throned?

It's time to post predictions.

Place your bets for his total number of episodes or his total cash winnings. Will he set a record for top game show winner? Will he own Sony and have Alex washing his car?

No to both. He might have Johnny Gilbert wash it. How much does John make as the voice of Jeopardy!? Hell, I'll wash it....120 days after his last show (if there is a last show for him) airs, because then he'll be able to pay a fat tip.

The streak ends at 74 games for Ken.


Just an lucky guess.

Sooner, rather than later, if an otherwise second place contestant has savvy betting in either DJ or FJ.  Even if the boards are random, the FJ questions appear to have their difficulties ramped up as a whole for budget considerations.  The unintentional (or maybe not unintentional) side effect is that Ken (and everyone else) is more likely to miss; and if he winds up on the wrong end of the two-thirds rule, that's the end of it.

I take a wild guess at it...

Ken will be finally defeated after 184 victories, amassing $4,886,021.

I underestimated my first guess a few months ago.  Now, here's my "revised" prediction:

45 games with a total of $1,502,261.

If I'm wrong again, I'll revise it again.

What part of "no spoilers" is confusing to some of you?

If you've already spoiled yourself, don't come here and "predict", man.

 Using that logic as my guide, I'll say he wins $1,380,661 in 41 games. I'll be back at 7:56pm to revise my prediction if necessary.

No, Don...you've got it all wrong. Its 1,380,662.  Nice attempt to use the Karlbergian logic, though.
