Honestly, so much of that is a blur today that I can't remember with certainty. I don't believe so, but it could easily have happened and just not registered in my long-term memory.

On J! all that matters is who is in the pole position and therefore who kicks the game off. So it might *be* the sort of coin flip Travis describes.[/quote]
You're right about Wheel, and that the advantage of selecting a category first in Jeopardy is minute at best. Still, I can't imagine doing multiple coin flips when three slips of paper get the job done faster.

Unless soemthing's changed (it doesn't happen often, of course), it's the last one of the two to have given a correct response.
