He was on the BoredArk Facebook group but I can't remember his screen name here. --Bob

Since you're a moderator, can't you look it up?

The Bored doesn't have information (that I'm aware of) matching screen names to real names. --Bob

He was a three-day Jeopardy champion in 2002 (real name Tom Kelso).

He was on the J! board as TomKBaltimoreBoy; I don't know if he ever logged on here with that or any other name.

That was the week I was on. It looked like he was going to roll to a 5-day run but lost the 4th game in an upset to (I think his name was) William Bonney who I then beat to be a one-day champ. Tom was a great guy and has an acronym named for him over on the J! Board called the TOM (Tease out metric) because of his ability to use backdoor clues to get answers.

As a human being, Trey was a mensch and a kind soul. When I returned to my apartment after my heart surgery in 2015, he was one of a couple of people who came over, helped procure supplies for me, and made sure that I was set up with what I needed for my recovery. That's who Trey was.

The world is a lesser place without him in it. F*ck cancer. Requiescat in pace, Trey.
