Talk:Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time

Rutter's Match 2 score
An edit war is going on related in regards to Rutter's score in Match 2. His correct score is 14,400 (14,400 + 0), not 10,800 (14,400 - 3,600). Trebek explicitly states Rutter's score as 14,400 during Final Jeopardy when his scores are added together. The 14,400 total is also consistent with the source posted in the match summary.

Was the series really a "best-of-seven"?
"Best-of-seven" requires four wins, but the winner of the GOAT tournament was declared with three wins. Robert K S (talk) 19:33, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, best of seven is correct. Keep in mind there were three men in this tournament.  If the winner won three games and the other two players won two games each, it would have lasted seven games.  This is different from a best of seven series in the sense of sports (such as the NBA Finals) in the fact that there are three possible winners for each game, rather than two.

 * I don't follow your logic--the inclusion of three competitors does not make a "best-of-seven" into a three-to-win tournament. If it were truly a best-of-seven, Holzhauer would have deserved to play three more matches to see if he could deliver more wins than Jennings' three.  It does not appear that any of the official materials used the phrase "best of seven"; that phrase appears to originate here on Wikipedia. Robert K S (talk) 20:11, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
