Topic: Why do people on Jeopardy try to answer with the full name when the answer is a person?

Anonymous A started this discussion 6 years ago #95,524

If you get the first name wrong, the whole thing is wrong (even if you got the last name right). If you just say the last name correctly, you get the points. So why do people try to add in the first name? You should just answer with the last name. Thanks.
