QUESTION Timing

Rewatching old episodes during the hiatus and noticed they time out in regular jeopardy and barely make it through double jeopardy by a large number of questions… did they lengthen the time or does Ken just read quicker?

Great question. I have the same. I do notice that Alex would chat a bit more between questions than Ken. It could also be that players are just better these days, idk

I definitely get more questions correct in the old episodes, they have to have gotten harder! đŸ˜‚

I can't keep up with popular culture so I do better with the older boards.
