LAST EDITED ON 08-15-08 AT 02:34 AM (EST)Michelle's revenge... played out perfectly. Within moments of Libra's departure my ears have gone down to a dull ringing and it's afforded me some time to rejigger my eyeroll machine.
Phew...peace. Can I make a plead to CBS and Please don't show sequester house please.For those new to the game; read the small print then join us below...
Yes! The Big Brother Reality Aptitude Test is back!
Even though test is in the title, the bbrat really is a game.
A game wherein you post a "weekly" entry full of Beforehand Assumed Decisions (aka:answers) and then sit back and collect points, while watching the current season of BigBrother play out on your screens.The player with the most points at the end, will be crowned the winner and will receive a "Winner's Siggie." Mmmmmmmsiggeezzzzzz....
As with all games there are some rules and they are the numbers to follow...
1. Deadlines will happen any time there is an eviction. Miss a deadline (or edit past one) your entry will not be valid.
Thusly, each "weeks" entry thread will be titled with the proposed Eviction number.1st Eviction,2nd eviction, 3rd Eviction, 4th, 5th, 6th, etc.
I will also include a current due date in red, above the entry portion of the thread.
In that entry portion you will find a series of questions split up into 3 sections.Power Positions: Questions regarding the HGs who win competitions, luxuries, 1sts and special rights.
Key Players: Questions regarding the HGs who have some connection to the Keys, whether literal or figurative.
Icon Competition: A weekly BBRAT Bonus. Not required, but will usually net more points.2. Each "week", beginning after week 2, I will post a results scoreboard.
In it I will be taking your weekly scores and figuring out who made the most points for the week.
This player will become the HOH and will have a 5 point boost added to their scores. They will also have use of the BBRATHOH room.
All of the players with less than half of the HOHs weekly score, before the bonus points, will be hit with a penalty of -3 points. They will also be put on this seasons version of the slop diet. (People Kibble.)
Any player who hasn't won HOH or been put on the new diet, will become Part Of The Crowd. Nothing at all happens to those bbrats.3. All answers that contain previously evicted HGs or outright non-contestants, will receive 0 points. Same goes for any questions left unanswered.
A week of unanswered questions is forgivable, two weeks is allowed as well, but miss a third weeks entry in a row and it's buh-bye bbratie.
I don't like to be the judgement caller on a weekly basis so if it becomes apparent a problem will arise, I'll simply remove the question. Same goes for any questions that can't be answered because they were not shown on the screen during one of the three weekly shows.4. Now, because of the 3 weekly shows and the live feeds, it's must be noted that all questions are regarding the upcoming weeks events. NOT the current week. This can be confusing at first but I promise in no time you'll be gettin' it. This also means that results, as noted above, will take a while to tally. Diffent questions get answered different times in a week and that causes a small delay in full results. In that way, it's kinda fun to speculate how your week will turn out with the HOH, only to watch it fall to pieces by the POV and vise versa.
5. This is now you're house. Have fricken' fun, don't take things too seriously and feel free to mingle with other bbrats.
6. This one is reserved for anything I've overlooked at the moment and will remain so until that something is thought up or revealed through experience.
With all that out of the way...

Inside the bbrat house...
As the only bbrat to correctly predict Michelle would get HOH, RoadKill makes an amazing leap to the top of the heap this week.
It's quite a change from the doghouse but with the pride of a first HOH bedroom stay also comes a 5 point boost. Congrats!
With 58 points that means any brrat below 29 will be force fed the kibble.
Wha? again no kibble for LostAddict?
Looks like a trio of ladies wanted to go on a -3 point diet this week. Good Luck, kircon, suzzee and RebelCrown. RebelCrown, by the way, becomes the top leader in 'weeks on chow', 4 total.
Here's another glass of water, RC.BBRAT Standings:
BBRAT HoH: Road Kill
Parts of the Crowd: DearAbby ~ LostAddict ~ mia rules ~ VisionQuest
BBRATs on Kibble: kircon ~ Rebel Crown ~ suzzee
BBRATs in the DogHouse: krismiss ~ SilverStar
New BBRAT:Overall...
While the minority Mayor of NevadaCity, VisionQuest, gains a little extra breathing room from a simply irresistable DearAbby, it's the quiet shifty-eyed one in the corner, Road Kill, who makes a giant strategic gain and nabs 3rd. miarules, meanwhile, having dried her tears has opted for the UTR and spends her days lazing back watching the drama go on around her.
Then there's Mayor Of the Doghouse, SilverStar. Sitting in 5th place, from a location not known. Absence surely makes the heart grow fonder, SS. Please come back.

* Scramble on!
LAST EDITED ON 08-20-08 AT 02:14 AM (EST)Yes. The BigBrother Sequester House and Spa is open to receiving guests.
As a matter of fact, yes. Seven JurorSuites have been set aside for the HGs.
I'm sorry, it is policy, I cannot give out the times of the actual reservations.
Well. We all know how it's been scripted and all but I'm sorry, I cannot get you a list of the order of reservations for the HGs.
I must also mention that this Icon Competition is closed.
But to view how the bbrats think it will go down check back here and see the occupancy level...
The JurorSuites...
JurorSuite 1 ~ Occupied ~ Libra
JurorSuite 2 ~ RoadKill ~ April
JurorSuite 3 ~ Vacant ~ ????
JurorSuite 4 ~ VisionQuest ~ Jerry
JurorSuite 5 ~ SilverStar/miarules ~ Ollie/Michelle

* Thank you RoadKill, suzzee, krismiss, miarules, kircon, SilverStar, RebelCrown and VisionQuest. I'll check on those JurorSuite reservations.
* I'm sorry, LostAddict. You didn't get back in time to change your invalid entry. If it's any consolation the prize is hard to get and the points are pretty meager. That and kibble is not so bad, right?

And for krismiss alone, please make sure to reply to message #1. NOT another bbrat's message.

Oh, sorry, I didn't know that. I didn't understand the rules, I guess. Or maybe I didn't see it in the rules?I've made another pick. Maybe that one will work. Or not.

And, no, he wasn't named after a certain judge in another forum. Same attitude, though.
I'm sure April will be joining him as well... ;)
