Also it makes the game much more difficult for an audience to follow

Oh huh I always thought the reason the buzzers worked that way was because it was rude to interrupt Trebek

Well it's rude because it's disruptive for the people listening, those two ideas go together

Yeah that makes sense I'm so used to skipping through cutscene dialogue before the voice actor can finish actually speaking the line that the idea that it would ever be annoying didn't occur to me

maybe in my version of Jeopardy you can buzz in at any time but then you have to read aloud the whole question before you answer The game version of how lazy history teachers split up aspects of a unit and then make students present them to the rest of the class in groups

Considering most Jeopardy contestants aren't trained actors or presenters, this would be excruciating

Sometimes I think I became a voice actor out of sheer frustration at how bad the other students uniformly were in the long English class periods where we all took turns reading aloud from the book and determined to show them up

I genuinely don't understand what you're supposed to learn as a class from this activity It just gives the dickhead students a chance to make fun of the book and the students with poor reading/speaking skills (or who have an accent etc) a chance to be publicly humiliated

I always had the book open like 20 pages ahead of where we were during these class periods and was just continuing to read it by myself
