"BBRAT Week 4 Questionnaire, Week 2 Scoring Updates, and More"
Greetings all. Welcome to the BBRAT, hosted by myself ARW. Thank you for stopping in.
Well Week 2 is over and Week 3 is almost over, and I have to say, I figured that Brendon or Rachel would become the next HOH, as it usually happens that those that are in power or find themselves on the chopping block, they usually end up switching places. I really don’t have much to say about it, other than the fact that Matt is still in the house, and I couldn’t be happier about that.
The Second week scoring has been completed, Kircon kicked Tribe out of the BBRAT HOH room and has been enjoying since Thursday night. She was the only person to figure out my point scale for the BB Mayhem Chapter 2: The House Sitter. For those of you that missed it, all you have to do is go to the 2nd week post and scroll thru till you find the Mayhem round, and in the blank boxes type ppm in the box and then move on to the next box. If you would have done that, you would have figured out which room to spend the most time in and the rest for 5 minutes only. Doing so would give you 250 bonus points.
Kircon took a commanding lead this week with 270 points plus 5 points for being the New BBRAT HOH. Kircon also receives a Slop Pass for the Week 3 Questionnaire. The lowest scoring, wrongly answered question, will get pardoned and those points will be applied to his score for the week. Congratulations Job well done.
Which means those of us with less than 135 points all take a slop penalty of -5 points. Mmmmm, I don’t know about you guys but this slop is starting to taste ok, lol. NOT!!
Tribe being the first BBRAT HOH received a Slop Pass for this week. His lowest scoring question not answered correctly was 5 points. I didn’t think about what would happen if a former HOH received a slop pass, but did not get ½ the points of the next New BBRAT HOH. I made a decision. Any Former BBRAT HOH that does not get ½ of the points the next New BBRAT HOH gets, will not have to pay the Slop Penalty and will still receive the Slop Pass points from a question not answered correctly. Hence the name, Slop Pass.
This week I have changed Question #6 on the Questionnaire. It is now: (5pts) 6. The Recognition: During the Live Eviction Show, Which hamster will be spoken to first by Julie Chen?. As an add in bonus this week and this week only, if you happen to get this answer correct, I will double your Questionnaire (Power Positions & Caught on Camera) points, but not your Favorite Hamster or BB Mayhem points.
Question #9 and Question #10 have been switched around. No, it is not some kind of hidden clue, it’s the numbers associated with the categories. I had them reversed and instead of changing all of my scoring spreadsheet around it was easier to move these two questions around. As I explained last week, these numbers help me keep the scoring so much easier than in the Home Survivor game.
Good Luck everyone. - AvidRealityWatcher, (ARW)
Well I guess we should get to it, so all you have to do is click the Click Here button below and you will be able to get started.
Big Brother Ratings Aptitude Test Created by Tribephyl, and Hosted by ARW
Big Brother 12 House Guests: Rachel Reilly, Kristen Bitting, Britney Haynes, Monet Stunson, Brendon Villegas, Andrew Gordon, Enzo Palumbo, Kathy Hillis, Annie Whittington, Matt Hoffman, Lane Elenburg, Ragan Fox, Hayden Moss
Introductory Premise:
Welcome BBrat mates. If you have never played before, you may wonder what this is all about. Well, quite simply, this is your chance to show the rest of us what you know, think you might know or if you’re a really good guesser.
Each week I will test your ability to see into the future and predict the weekly winners and losers of (almost) every aspect of the show. Including HOH, Nominations, POV, Re-nominations, Competitions, America's Choice, Coup detat, Eviction and any other thing the producers may throw at us.
Each correct guess will result in points being added to your individual tally. Each weeks tallies will be combined for a grand total and the player with the highest overall grand total score at seasons end, will be crowned "The Biggest BBrat!".
Simple and streamlined. Now, even though it sounds like it's gonna be too easy, I must remind everyone that the answers you give will be for the next weeks events. Not, I repeat, NOT for the events leading up to this weeks Eviction show but for the events covering the following week, beginning with the new HOH and ending with the Elimination show usually 1 week later, unless announced to the contrary. This way, the Live Feed will have no effect upon the test. (Outside of the first week when a couple of things typically become known before the first show airs. Those, I can handle.) From then on...start looking into your crystal balls.
I know this may sound confusing, but I promise it does only at first. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. My door is always open to. Quite quickly, you'll be realizing it's all just a shot in the dark.
Lets all please enjoy the show, and of course…
Good Luck to you all.
The BRATT Rules:
1.) This game is open to new players at all times, please feel free to join in at anytime. 2.) Each questionnaires questions will start with and be based on the new HOH and end with the following eviction, usually from Thursday to Thursday. All of your Questionnaire Answers / Predictions will be made regarding the next weeks episode. Each questions outcome will be determined by the show itself. For instance, if a competiton is held but not aired, in the show (either Sunday, Wednesday or. Thursday), it will not count. 3.) Deadline for all entries will usually be each and every Thursday at 7:59 EST, boardtime, and possibly a couple of other times due to the TV scheduling. But safe to say, it will be due before the Eviction happens, whenever that is. Once in a while because of TV Scheduling, Eviction Schedules and things I can not foresee, changes happen. These changes are usually referred to as "PopQuiz"s. These are held when "suprise" events take control of the house and the producers decide to switch the format from the norm. Depending completely on the show's schedule. I will try to stay right on top of things, if something changes. 4.) Those who make an entry after the POSTED DEADLINE will not be considered. 5.) Those who miss an entry will have to go without gaining any points for the week. 6.) If a vacation or other time-constraint happens, you are allowed to have a proxy-player make your entry for you. 7.) Any player who misses 3 entries in a row will be forced to wear the Big Yellow Banana Suit, and then will be escorted out the front door, and eliminated from the game. 8.) I reserve the right to play along, and you may check at any time to see that I am playing it straight. I may have to excuse myself from playing in a BBMayhem Round from time to time, I promise to keep it fair from my end. Any questions Please ask. 9.) Please don’t take this game that serious, and have as much fun as you can. 10.) Congratulate one another when you see them doing well. 11.) This rule is left open for the "Just-In-Case" clause.
I will try to post the new entry thread every Friday, with an up to date result and scoring section in it.
Questionnaires:
Every week I will post questions covering 4 sections. There will be a variable amount of questions, in each section, from week to week. Each question has its own value.
1. FAVORITE HAMSTER: This is but 1 simple question. Who do you think will be the ultimate Big Brother Winner. This question has multiple opportunities to gain bonus points. The object is to show loyalty to your choice. Try not to change your choice as much as possible as the longer you are loyal to him/her the higher your bonus points will get from week to week. If you change your mind, or if you are forced to change your Favorite Hamster Choice, Your bonus level will return to Level 1. Each week you are loyal and make no changes, you will advance 1 level. The maximum amount of points possible to win from this in just one week is 4 times that of your current bonus level points.
2. POWER POSITIONS: These questions will test your ability to predict the HOHs, POV Winners, Nominees, Evictees, and Non-Evictees, testing your ability to predict the various outcomes of the Competitions.
3. CAUGHT ON CAMERA: These questions will test your ability to predict special interest situations. These questions may change from time to time and may be suited for current situations.
4. BB MAYHEM: The questions asked here will test your abilities in some other form of game/challenge I may have decided to create just for this episode. Note also that the outcomes may have direct effects on other participating BBRAT players, sometimes good and sometimes bad. The BB Mayhem is a Bonus Point Section and is completely up to you if you wish to participate.
Favorite Hamster
Who is Your Favorite Hamster:
YOUR FAVORITE HAMSTER BONUS POINTS: Which House Guest do you think will be told, they are the new Big Brother Winner? This is the person you think has the best chance at winning or at least you hope would. This is where the bonus points come in. In order to get higher bonus scores you need to choose YOUR Favorite Hamster and then stick by them for as long as you can. Every elimination YOUR Favorite Hamster survives is a higher bonus value. Example if you choose House Guest A, and you don’t change your mind for 10 eliminations, your bonus points by this point in the game will be 200 points (or 800 total bonus points collectively). If your Favorite House Guest does well enough you may even get double or even triple the bonus.
You may change your answer to this question anytime you like, especially if that person gets Evicted, until there are only 3 House Guests left. Your Final YOUR PICK choice must be decided before there are only 3 players left in the game. This House Guest will be your Final Choice until the conclusion of the game.

Scores:
Scoring Rules:
1. Favorite Hamster: These are Bonus Points for picking a House Guest that survives a whole week, and may have done something special, example: Winning HOH, POV, or a Food Competition, etc.
2. QUESTIONNAIRES: If you answer a question correctly you will receive the points alloted in the parentheses for each question. These points are subject to change but not without notice. If you are wrong with your choices you will receive 0 points. If one of your answers contains a previously evicted HG, it will be worth 0 points. If the question can't be judged, it will be voided. Keep in mind, if your Favorite Hamster does not win anything all week, does not play in POV, and does not get nominated, your Questionnaire points will be doubled, with exception to your Favorite Hamster Bonus points as these are already Bonus Points.
3. BBRAT HOH: Every week, the BRATT player with the highest weekly points will Become the new BBRAT HOH. Other than a nice yet fleeting title, this player will receive 5 bonus points, and a SLOP PASS on the next Questionnaire.
4. SLOP PASSES: Slop Passes can be won 3 ways. The first way is to become the BBRAT HOH winner. The second way is to win one of the BB Mayhem Challenges that has the reward of a SLOP PASS. The third, I may hide a Slop Pass somewhere from time to time and if you find it, you can claim it. SLOP PASSSES can only be used once. Its purpose is to give a wrongly answered question, points awarded anyways. These points are not to be determined until after scoring has been completed. Once the scores are tallied, the lowest point question not answered correctly by the BBRAT player(s) in question will be given a pass, and therefore receive those points. Once a player has won a SLOP PASS its reward will be not be given until the following Questionnaire has been scored. It is from that Questionnaire that those points will be based from. You may not use the reply quote as a way to find a hidden slop pass, you must follow the rules in order to receive such a prize.
5. SLOP PENALTY: Every week, all BBRAT players with less than half of the BRATT HOH's weekly score, will be put on Slop. This comes in the form of a -5 point penalty. Neither of which will taste good.

Slop Pass Winner
Congratulations on finding the Hidden Slop Pass.
First of all, do not tell anyone you have found this.
Second, private mail me by clicking the image located at the upper right hand corner of my posting. Just let me know that you found it, and how you come to find it.
This Slop Pass will allow you to earn some points that you may lose on this Questionnaire. Please check the Score Board section for the rules on Slop Passes and the rewards therein.
I want to change my entry but am afraid to edit it. Didn't you say somewhere that it's not good for you, ARW, it screws up the formatting or something? And I certainly don't want to cause any problems for you .
Anyway, my change is to... My Favorite Hamster: I would like to keep Matt.
Yes that is correct and if you look at the BB Mayhem section, you will see that who ever leaves, Kathy or Andrew, I will remove them from your list, then realign your list to reflect the house guests that are still in the game.
There will be no penalty for the house guest that I remove from your list.
