Only one wrong answer (from anyone) the entire game, and presumably more than one person knew most of the right answers, so it was buzzer skills and brave wagers.
James, interestingly, did exactly the right thing and made a tiny FJ wager despite being just modestly behind. Some nitwits will probably misunderstand the situation... but he was in 2nd place behind a good player, with scores of something like 26-23-11. Betting just a bit (to ensure he stayed ahead of the 3rd place player) was definitely the right play there.
