This thread makes me LMFAO!
"For the win" came from Hollywood Squares, not Jeopardy. I.e., a contestant picking a certain square to get 3 in a row "for the win". Sheesh.
Double Sheesh, Triple Booyah.
You can't do that! You can't triple stamp a double stamp!!
Well if urban dictionary says so...
Far be it for me to contest the average contributor of that abomination.

More than likely it became a popularized internet slang because of WOW, but the term references 'Squares. You said it yourself, "it was long gone", so naturally it must have been first. That's how the internet is, they take something nobody cares about, such as Chuck Norris, and makes it popular for unrelated reasoning.
What, you want people on the internet to make sense now too? That's asking too much! The tie-in is that whatever precedes "FTW" is touted as the best, great, cannot be beat, is tops, etc. Someone got onto this point earlier. For instance: Ford Mustangs FTW!
I wish. I have a whole list of stupid regurgitated from the internet that I could add to the list!I hearby order it stricken from the face of the Earth.
And how exactly would you pronounce that?I think "pwned" should be recognized as a real word of the English language.
