Having been in the trivia sphere for a few years, and auditioning since 2000-01, I know many people who have deservedly been cast and have generally played very well. Then I see other contestants and think ... "Him? Really? You have him a spot? ... OK." (I know how random the selection process is.)

Props to Scott for his stamina. At the end of day 3, I'd be mental and physical mush. And having 2+ months off to study and prepare more is a contestant's dream. No way he threw it.

Piper is forever my all-time favorite companion for this line alone: "Let me know if there's anything I can do to lighten the load ... or, you know, if you need anything proofread."

3 was the first Fallout game I played, and I barely understood companions and questlines, even by the end of it. I happened to have him as my companion at that time (mostly because I enjoyed him saying "too fun!") as well as high enough Intelligence and/or Speech to convince him to do it.

Following the line of succession after Caesar🌈 are Augustus (Gus) and Tiberius (Ty). Among their many nicknames that undoubtedly confuse the hell out of them are Mister FluffleupaGus.

I wonder if fluffy orange bois know how well they blend into medium-range wood tones. I haven't tripped over Gus yet, but I know it's inevitable.

My cat Gus is so in love with me that he taught himself to play fetch, by bringing me his mice and other toys. If I'm not around, he'll pick them up and drop them where he knows I'll find them: in his food bowl, water bowl, litter box ... or a combination thereof. πŸ˜‘
