Big Brother 7 Contest

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]


I am devising a relatively simple contest. For the first week, watch the show and decide on 5 of the 20 you think will be chosen by America to participate. You will score as follows:
If all 5 of your choices are chosen:10 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.)

Since the polls close at midnight EST on June 28th, this will be our deadline as well, for submission of guesses. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]

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.

Re: Big Brother 7 Contest

One additional scoring opportunity:
If you choose anyone no one else chooses to make it into the Big Brother competition, AND that person makes it, you score 5 bonus points.
It is hard to predict if the persons America votes for will be obvious, so I wanted to add a twist to our scoring to make it more interesting.
Remember: to get 5 bonus points, one of your 5 picks must be unique (i.e. no one else picked that person)
AND
the unique person you pick "makes the cut" when America votes

Don't forget that you have until midnight EST on June 28th to get me your initial 5 picks.

Re: Big Brother 7 Contest

*****PRIZE ANNOUNCEMENT*****

Fellow Big Brother fans: I have discussed it with Chippers and I am going to put up the prize for this contest! I have competed in every contest that she has run and think it's high time for me to give back and help make it easier for her.

The prize will be a $10 gift card from your choice of Starbucks, McDonalds or Target. (If none of those places are suitable for the winner than we can work something else out.)

My only request is that if you participate that you stay AWAY from the spoiler boards. Keep the playing field level for all of us.

Re: Big Brother 7 Contest

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.

Since the polls close at midnight EST on June 28th, this will be our deadline as well, for submission of guesses. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]



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.

Thanks everyone, for getting your guesses in right away. Now I can go finish packing for the beach. Good luck to all. I must have made that mistake about Amazing Race vs. Big Brother because I like AR so much better and I have seen advertisements for the show which will be starting in the fall.
