Yes, 74-time Jeopardy champion Ken Jennings finally lost. To Nancy Zerg. I guess it took the overmind to finally beat that freakish software engineer. Oh well...

No, no, no! You've got it all wrong!! He requires more vespene gas, not minerals. Such a long streak of consecutive wins has allowed him to collect plenty of minerals. He didn't have the gas to energize his brain to get that last question right.

With that, Zerg became the new champ - and possibly a future Jeopardy! answer herself. Zerg finished with $14,401; Jennings fell to $8,799.

wow.. i wonder what the answer would be for zarg?

Answer: The Xel'Naga created them.
Question: Who is Zerg?

Haha, I didn't know her name was Zerg, that's great.

Also, it seems like I'm the only person who already knew he had lost...please tell me someone else knew about it before hand (since Jeopardy does tape something like three weeks in advance...). Or did I have a premonition? o_O
