Revised rules for the contest:
For the first week, watch the show and try to choose the 6 of the 20 (choose 3 men and 3 women) you think will be chosen by America to participate. You will score as follows:
If all 6 of your choices are chosen:15 pts.
If 5 of your choices are chosen: 11 pts.
If 4 of your choices are chosen:7 pts.
If 3 of your choices are chosen: 5 pts.
If 2 of your choices are chosen: 3 pts.
If only 1 of your choices is chosen: 1 pt.
If you get 0, you score 10 points!!!!!!! (Anyone who does that bad deserves some help.)
And if you choose someone no one else selected and that person is chosen by America you get a 5 point bonus.
All the scoring is for the 6 persons that America votes into the house. The 6 persons that the producers of the show add to the house DO NOT count as point-getters for us here playing the contest.

The rest of the game rules remain the same:
The show actually starts on Thursday, July 6th at 8 PM. At that time they will announce the contestants. You will have just 24 hours, until 8 PM EST on Friday, July 7th to send me the following:
3 people you think will make it to the finals AND 3 you think will be eliminated early. You will add a point for each contestant that makes it through an elimination. You lose the chance to get anymore points by this method when all 3 of your choices are eliminated. (No replacements allowed)
You will receive 3 points each for any of your "elimination" candidates that get booted in the top 3. After the first 3 eliminations no more points will be given by this method. (no replacements allowed)
After the first 3 rounds of elimination, bonus questions will be posted as I see chances to make the contest more fun. Point values will vary.
