$100,000 Pyramid - Nathan Cook - "Hall of Fame Books"? 📚📖🤔

  • Nathan Cook and the contestant are playing for $100,000.
    I believe that the category "Things that are Enshrined" was shown on a previous episode that same tournament. I think Nathan gave the clue "Hall of Fame books" for the category, but the contestant didn't get the category.
    Keefe, being smart and remembering this fact, gives Nathan the clue only he would know what the heck it meant - "Hall of Fame books" - and instantly gets "Things that are enshrined".
    Almost adjacent to how Michael Larson remembered the patterns on Press Your Luck and won over $100,000 by avoiding the whammy. Maybe this incident spurred Bob Stewart to invest in a greater number of rotating categories!

    The clue "Hall of Fame books" wasn't ipso facto illegal, whatever else was going on. The earliest book enshrined in the Science Fiction Hall of Fame ("A Martian Odyssey" by Stanley Weinbaum) was written in 1929 and enshrined in 1970. Enshrining books in the Hall of Fame at writers' conventions is something which actually happens. No one was doing anything actually wrong. I guess Keif was just grasping at straws at this point.

    • @NJAD0
      @NJAD0 Год назад +6

      If she didn't correct herself and append "books," she would have been zapped. A "Hall of Fame" is, itself, a shrine, not something that _is_ enshrined. And by those rules, the "Hall of Fame" clue would go around the category and be zapped. Books made it legal.

    The thing is that was NOT the first time enshrined was used. Nathan Cook admitted that it was a subject he had thought about before this happened, so when she started giving those clues he realized they reused the subject.
    NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. If you watch several episodes you will see several subjects are used more than once.

  • @TommygunNG

    A wrong or bad clue is not an illegal clue. A clue giver could be mistaken about some thing - liked existence of a book Hall of Fame - and still give a legal clue from that perspective. If such a Hall of Fame were to exist - and someone else coming here suggests one does - then such an item would indeed be “enshrined.”
    Ask for the opportunistic adding of “books,” there was another case, where a judge held off buzzing a clue giver, as if waiting for the clue giver to “finish” a clue.

    • @NJAD0
      @NJAD0 Год назад +3

      There was a case for the category "Reference Books," and the clue giver said, "Law library." It was, indeed, confirmed by Dick that the judge gave her a couple of seconds to "finish" the clue with "materials" or anything of the sort before buzzing her. As it stood, a law library is not a reference book, and that clue could be seen a way of getting the recipient to say "Reference" without listing a book, or material, as it were. The judges were strict on that. The clue giver should've said "thesaurus, encyclopedia, dictionary, atlas."
      Let's be honest. "Enshrine" is a very difficult word to get the recipient to say, as things that a clue giver lists for that category would also fit its synonyms. The thing is that you don't enshrine a shrine. The "Hall of Fame books" was the perfect escape clue. A "book 'Hall of Fame'" might be an iffy one for the same reason "Panty Dorm" was buzzed for "Things that are Raided": a nonexistent term to get the recipient to say "raided". Plus, the game deals with sounds. (FYI books titled "Hall of Fame" did exist in beginning in 1977, but we have the power of Google now; the judges didn't have Google in 1988)

      There was another tournament win where the top box was “things that are bound.”
      AfterDC said “HURRY” with four seconds left, she came up with “old fashioned Japanese women’s feet.”
      Truth is, foot binding was a Chinese practice, not Japanese.
      No buzzer, and somehow the contestant got it.
      Shelly Smith was the only celebrity to win the tournament twice.
