start

Jeopardy is a game show where you're ostensibly given the answers and need to find the questions. The same is true for the Double Jeopardy clues, though not in the same way as normal Jeopardy.

start, heavy

For each of the clues in Double Jeopardy, find a famous title question for which that would be an appropriate answer. For example, "The player that just hit a single" is "Who's on First?"

questions

Each of the questions is the title of something that uniquely matches with one of the descriptors in the first board, i.e. the “This X” phrase before the colon. For example, “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?” matches with “This sci-fi book”.

extraction

Note that the single Jeopardy categories are alphabetized (and the questions are sorted by subjective difficulty), suggesting the single Jeopardy order is not important.

extraction

Put the answers from single Jeopardy in the order of their corresponding match in double jeopardy and read off their first letters (or first character, in the case of "300") for a final cluephrase.

During the hunt, teams were invited to send 3 members to play a game of Jeopardy hosted by us, which used the single Jeopardy clues below. After finishing the interaction, the page was updated to include the single and double Jeopardy clues below, which form the puzzle.
