Trending This Week
I’m just going to get in some quick hits this week, as I’m writing on Monday instead of over the weekend.
Total attempts per game dipped fell very slightly from 96.0 last week to 95.0 this week. With two lower weeks in a row, that puts the overall attempt environment lower than we’ve seen since May/June last year. Curiously, the average of money earned on correct buzzes is significantly higher than it was during portions of that period, which sort of split into a lower time and one more like today. Maybe I should get some rolling averages on both Triple Stumpers and unread clues and see how those compare.
This Week’s Champions
Mostly summaries here with the shortened writing time, but I’m intrigued by the variety of profiles in a week that was largely stable and low on attempts and contention. Last week I’d conjectured that that would favor solo performance and accuracy, and so I’d expected to see champions with lower ranks on buzzing and higher on accuracy. I think both Daniel and Emma fit that profile. However, Deb and Devin stand out the other way, with more emphasis on getting in.
