It involves open-ended questions with a time limit* per question, lots of typing, and for me it ends with heartbreaking disappointment.

*(15 or 20 seconds. I think -- I missed last year's test)

If you contact them I'm sure they can make an accommodation.  Eddie Timanus had to pass the written test somehow.

It's 50 questions with 15 seconds to answer each one. This year's (or rather, NEXT year's) exam will be January 17-19, so good luck to all of you!

I would like to think Jeopardy would be able to make some equitable accommodation, like a foot pedal or something.

You really think this was an improvement on the post that was here before the edit?

(As someone who has been kludging up various ways to work around my medical and physical issues for about twenty-five years, I feel supremely qualified to tell you exactly where you can get off.)

NES
Guessing you got really really good at World Class Track Meet.

/read in one of the various books I have on the topic, that NES actually made an NES that could be controlled entirely by mouth: the tongue would operate the directional pad, and breath would work the A or B button.
//I suspect someone who wanted to play Contra would pass out around level five or so.
