Ladies and Gentleman, Houseguest, Reality Show Lovers, Voyeurs, Game Players and Hamster Lovers, it's officially time for the Big Brother PTTE!!
What's a PTTE you ask? Well, PTTE is short for "Picks To The End"
Okay... here's the goal:
To start the contest you'll need to make a list that reflects your prediction about the ENTIRE eviction order for the whole season. Starting with the first HG (#14) to be eliminated and ending with the winner (#1).
This doesn't need to have any analysis, although you're welcome to throw anything in that you want... this is a game and is intended to be fun. With any spoiler information available to you, coupled with your own intuition, see how well you can do. There will be a bonus for keeping your original list.
In honor of one of the best game host this board has seen, a new division of the PTTE will be instituted.
This game follows the rules below except the highest score wins. Isn’t that right tribey? As tribe told me, “Some folks, like to be big huge losers...” Here is your chance to rack up all the points you can.
Just let me know your intentions to play the Medium Teal Game.
This seasons Hamsters are...
Here is where you can start your research
Scoring:
1) You do NOT want points... they're bad... it's like golf. Every point counts against you in the standings, so try to avoid them, unless you are playing the MEDIUM TEAL game.
2) Points will be awarded to every contestant in the game after each eviction show. They will be awarded as the difference between where you thought this week's bootee would finish and where the bootee actually finished.
For example: You thought that Joe was going to be the Big Brother winner. If he is the first eviction, you would receive 13 points. (14 – 1 = 13) If Joe gets evicted in 9th place, you would receive 8 points. (9 – 1 = 8) If you thought Joe was going to be evicted first, and he was, you would receive 0 points for the week (14 – 14 = 0)
3) You will be given (+4 points for regular game and -4 points for medium teal game, every time you change your PTTE list... but it's only +4 or -4 points, so change it often if you think it will help you out.
You may change the list as many times as you want, up to the deadline. The last list at the time of deadline will be used.
DO NOT EDIT AFTER THE DEADLINE OR I WILL GO WITH THE LAST LIST from the previous week.
You may change your first lists as many times as you want, up to 7:59 pm
EDT on Thurs. 07/05/07.
You will not be penalized for any changes made before the first episode airs.
3) If you do not enter before the first episode, you will start with a score equivalent to 8 points per episode you missed. That means that it's possible to join the game after several episodes and enter in first place, but statistically speaking, you'll have a better chance if you enter earlier.
4) A point total will be posted by me shortly after each episode. I will try to get these up as soon as I can.
5) After the first show has aired please do not edit your post to make changes. Just start a new post if you want to change your PTTE. It's very important not to change your original picks-if I make a mistake or my computer crashes, it's the only proof I have of your original picks.
Now for the houseguest names:
Amber: 
Carol: 
Danielle: 
Dicque: 
Since there is a cast member whose name is a banned word on this board, be creative when writing it. Some examples: D*ck, Dicque, or ####.
Dustin: 
Eric: 
Jameka: 
Jen: 
Jessica: 
Joe: 
Kail: 
Mike: 
Nick: 
Zach: 
I will offer a "Stick With Your List" Bonus this season.
Keep your list for:
1 – 3 weeks = -1 point or +1 point for teal
4 – 6 weeks = -1 points or +1 points for teal
7 – 9 weeks = -2 points or +2 points for teal
10-Final week = -2 points or +2 points for teal
If you keep your original list all the way through you would have 6 points subtracted, or added for the teal game.
One houseguest has been chosen to be America’s Player. This twist has yet to be fully revealed. This “Player" can choose to do things on behalf of our whims and desires. They get rewarded with extra sums of money for doing special tasks voted on by us, the viewing public. Cool!
The Bonus: Choose the HG who will be "America's Player".
Get it correct and win a free list change to use further on down the line. 
America’s in the House Bonus must be played before the show starts, July 5th, Thursday, 7:59pm EDT.
Thanks for all your help, Sir Tribe. You have taught me a lot. I’m a little worried to step into your shoes. They are very large. The Logo is wonderful. The Sigs are great. You are amazing. Thanks for uploading the pictures, also. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. I hope to make you proud. k
* Good Luck and have fun!!
* You will not be penalized for any changes made before the first show airs. The four point penalties will come into play after the first Thursday/Live eviction episode has started. Basically you have until Thursday, 7:59pm EDT, July 5th to make your first picks.
