Sometimes it happens. I was watching a season premiere episode and the last question of Double Jeopardy had Keyser Soze as the answer.
One of the contestants answered "Keyser SOSA", immediately followed by Alex confirming with "Keyser SOZE, yes". There was a clear distinction between how the contestant pronounced it and how Alex pronounced it, but the contestant was given credit for the answer anyway.
- oh_sigh 7y agoI am 100% sure the judges considered the pronunciation and found it acceptable. Perfect pronunciation isn't actually a rule of jeopardy, like it is in Wheel of Fortune.
- egdod 7y agoI’ve seen cases like this where the judges reverse the decision and adjust the scores later. The fact that that didn’t happen in this instance indicates that they agreed the pronunciation was acceptable. There’s really very little room for Alex to nudge things in a way that last more than a couple of minutes.
