Alright, people. There are gonna be some big changes around these parts. Why don't we crack into week 11 (actually, I think it's week 8) of the PQM...I'll tell you all the little changes along the way.
((Change #1 - As you can see, I am no longer dedicating this game to Jenn...although I am. But she's not going to be mentioned further.))
Well, allow me to summarize this week's results...some people did exceedingly bad, and some people did exceedingly well. The other 3 people had mediocre scores.
Here are the awards for the week:
Our HIGHEST SCORER this week was LibraRising, who rose (Get it? LibraRising, rose...no? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?) to the occasion and earned a cool 28 points, while our LOWEST SCORER was Mo0, for the second week in row, with -3 points, getting screwed over by the Ultrabonus. Our HIGHEST JUMPER this week was Kermit the Vixen, who just inched past whoami to take her place in the #1 spot. Nice job! And our BIGGEST PLUNGE of this week came from kingfish, who got the second lowest score of -2 points, and fell from #2 to #6.
Also, before the leaderboard, allow me to say that Janu's elimination helped multiple people, 7 out of the 12 entrants this week received either 10 or 20 points by guessing Janu would place anywhere from 9th to 7th place. fairyprincess was the only person that didn't make an entry that week, thus not getting any bonus points from Janu's departure. Anyway, here it is, the leaderboard:
Leaderboard
1. Kermit the Vixen- (4) 24/111
2. whoami- (1) 6/109
3. LibraRising- (5) 28/105
4. smokedog- (6) 17/96
5. emydi- (3) 6/94
6. kingfish- (2) -2/92
7. Ontheroadagain- (9) 16/90
8. dreamerbeliever- (8) 7/81
9. Mo0- (7) -3/71
10. Road Kill- (11) 24/69
11. fairyprincess- (10) 1/53
12. Survivorerist- (13) 20/27
The last "inactive"
Steen- (12) NE-3/17
((Change #2 - Although no new entrants had been received despite the rule being in effect, the rule is now gone. What rule? The rule that new entrants are allowed for a penalty. No new entrants will be allowed at all...although I doubt that would've happened at any point.))
((Change #3 - You will be eliminated if you miss two entries in a row now, rather than three. The remaining people are my "regulars", and I can't afford to lose them...although I'm increasing the risk of that happening...oh well. 
))
Here are the correct answers to last week's questions:
1. How many times will Ian's face be shown next week?
Correct Answer: 72
2. How many words will Ian say next week?
Correct Answer: 94
3. How many votes will Ian receive at TC?
Correct Answer: 0
P. What place will Ian finish in overall?
B1. Will Ian be shown going fishing next week?
Correct Answer: No
B2. Will Ian say the words "vote out"? (No variation of it, just "vote out")
Correct Answer: No
B3. Will Ian have a one-on-one talk with anybody besides Tom, Katie, or Stephenie?
Correct Answer: Yes and No...he did speak w/Jeff Probst at TC, and I said "anybody"...and as far as I know Jeff Probst is somebody, so technically, he spoke w/somebody, although the intended meaning of this question was "Will Ian have a 1-on-1 talk w/any other player besides..."...but since I'm so generous, I let everyone get this one right
And a question from the past:
P. What place will Janu finish in overall?
Correct Answer: 8th
Anyway, here we are again...which survivor will make the cut? Next week's star is...
For the second time ever! She is our first repeat! (Mainly b/c I don't want to take notes on Tom and Steph, who are the two biggest Chatty Kathys in the game)
Here's a hint: Look back at your previous post about Jenn to see what you put for question P. I will take the better of the two when she does get eliminated.
And here are next week's questions:
1. How many times will Jenn's face be shown next week?
2. How many words will Jenn say next week?
3. How many votes will Jenn receive at TC?
P. What place will Jenn finish in overall?
B1. Will Jenn vote for the same person as Stephenie?
B2. Will Jenn have a conversation with Gregg and only Gregg two or more times throughout the course of the episode?
B3. Will Jenn's face be shown in the next shot after a jury member's face is shown during TC?
And I've got two more little twists:
From now until the end of the game, you have a single token that you may redeem for points. The amount of points you get depends on how many people are left in the game. You will receive a point from every other player. If another player gets negative points, however, and you use the token the week that they get those negative points, you will lose a point b/c of that person and that person will gain a point. YOU MUST STATE WHETHER YOU WANT TO USE IT OR NOT THE WEEK BEFORE YOU WILL GET THE POINTS. Meaning, you cannot use it now and end up altering the results of the Week 10 Entries. If you used it this week, it would affect the Week 11 Results.
Here's an example of how this would work:
Let's say there are 5 people left, and I use the token. Here are the results before the token usage:
Me 21/61
Joe 17/58
Suzy 9/47
Bob 14/46
Mary -3/32
After the token usage, here's how it would look:
Me 23/63 Got a net of +2 points
Joe 16/57 Had a point taken
Suzy 8/46 Point taken
Bob 13/45 Point taken
Mary -2/33 Got a point from me b/c she had neg. pts.
So there you go. Be sure to use it wisely.
The second twist is that from now on, I will average the scores of all the players every week. If someone has the average score of the week, they will get a bonus 3 points.
There you go, have fun. Same deadline as usual.
Scoring
Question 1- 10 points if right on, 5 if off by 1, 3 if off by two, 2 if off by three, and 1 if off by four||Question 2- 20 points if right on, 15 points minus half a point for every word under you are, nothing if you go over||Question 3- 4 points if right on, 2 points if off by one, 1 point if off by 2||Question P- This stays the same for the duration of the game, if you get it right on, you get 20 points, off by one is 10 points, off by two is 5 points, off by three is 3 points, off by four is 2 points, and off by five is 1 point, nothing for any farther off||BONUS QUESTIONS are always worth 2 pts. for correct, -1 pt. for incorrect unless stated otherwise. The superbonus is not applicable to any bonus questions that do not follow the standard bonus question scoring.
Superbonus
For BONUS questions, you may choose to do the "Superbonus"- place a (x2) or (x3) next to the question, your choice. If you answer a question incorrectly and you've gone for the superbonus, you get either a (-4) or a (-6) for getting it wrong, (-4) for choosing the x2 and (-6) for choosing the x3. By choosing the x2, you get 4 points for every bonus you answer correctly, and in choosing the x3, you get 6 points for every one you answer incorrectly, but keep the penalties in mind.
Ultrabonus
Also for BONUS questions, there is an option called the "Ultrabonus". To get the Ultrabonus, you must answer all 3 bonus questions correctly. Choose either (x4) or (x5) for the Ultrabonus, and put (UB x#), # being 4 or 5, in bold next to Bonus Question #1. If you do answer all 3 correctly, you get 24 points for choosing (x4) and 30 points for choosing (x5). If you do not answer all of them correctly, you get -6 points for choosing (x4) and -8 points for choosing (x5). It does not matter how many you did get correct as long as one is wrong, the Ultrabonus will not be awarded.
EDITED B/C I DECIDED TO GROW BACK MY HEART AND PUT JENN'S NAME AT THE TOP OF THE THREAD
