Ladies and Gentleman, Houseguest, Reality Show Lovers, Voyeurs, Game Players and Hamster Lovers, it's officially time for the Big Brother PTTE!!



BIG BROTHER 12 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 next HG (#9) 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.

The fourth person to be evicted was:
Kristen Bitting

Read what RTVW had to say about it here

Now on to the game:

Place – Name – Score on current list
Upward movement ^
In case of ties, I alphabetize.

^1 HauntedOne – 4
^1. kircon – 4 (includes Pre Season Bonus)
1. michel – 4
Even with a list change, you are still in first place!

4. AvidRealityWatcher – 6
^4. suzzee – 6 (includes Pre Season Bonus)

6. DearAbby – 10

7. mrc – 12 (includes Pre Season Bonus)

8. tribephyl – 17 (includes Pre Season Bonus)

9. FlowerChild – 23 (includes Pre Season Bonus)

10. PirateNameGenerator – 28 (includes Pre Season Bonus)



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.

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 12 points. (13 – 1 = 12) If Joe is 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 (13 – 13 = 0)

3) You will be given +4 points every time you change your PTTE list... but it's only +4, so change it often if you think it will help you out.

DO NOT EDIT AFTER THE DEADLINE OR I WILL GO WITH THE LAST LIST from the previous week.

4) 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.
You will start the game with 24 points this week.

5) A point total will be posted by me shortly after each evection episode. I will try to get these up as soon as I can.

6) 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.

PRE-SEASON BONUS:

I will offer a "Stick With Your List" Bonus this season.
Keep your list for:
1 – 3 weeks = -1 point
4 – 6 weeks = -1 point
7 – 9 weeks = -2 points
10-Final week = -2 points
If you keep your original list all the way through, you will have 6 points subtracted from your score.

Week 4

"Big Brother 2nd Saboteur" BONUS:

Who will America pick to be the new Saboteur?

Regan

No one got it right.

The next bonus!!!

My Mother in law has been staying with me for the last week; she will be here for another. I am having a hard time getting to my computer.


For a free list change, tell me a mother in law story.
Good or bad!! Your choice.
If you don’t have one, make up a story!

Post your list starting with the next HG (#9) to be eliminated
and ending with the winner (#1).

* Good Luck and have fun!!

* Be back here by Thursday, 7:59 pm EDT, August 12, to make your picks.

I once had my Mother-in-law stay over for a few weeks. At one point, she noticed I was avoiding her so she asked, "If you don't like me, why don't you tell me to leave?"
I answered, "I don't want to have to kiss you good-bye."

LAST EDITED ON 08-10-10 AT 11:03 AM (EST)

Looks like PNG might be racing for Med. Teal.

Although I'm only 12 points shy of that. Remind me, why did I want a free edit? LOL
Wait, can I give my free edit away to another player? Perhaps my Mother-In-Law.
hhmmm...that is IF I had one.

My Mother in law and I got along great. It's my ex-wife I couldn't stand. In fact, to this day whenever they get together for holidays she still sends a big plate of food home for me with the kids. She's a great cook. Too bad her daughter wasn't.

Do I still have a free edit left from the sign-up post?

Well, I'm not plyaing this game, but I have a MIL story to share: When my son was about 1 or 2, my MIL said to me, "Well, at least he'll be straight when he grows up." I asked how she figured htat, and she said "Because he plays with trucks!"

So I called my cousin, who had a daughter a few months older than my son and told her the story. She said that sucks! cuz now my daughter plays with trucks, so is she gonna be a lesbian?

I thought it was at least a humorous story...hopefully ya'll will get some laughs out of it, I know i did!

"My MIL Story"
Posted by kircon on 08-12-10 at 11:55 AM
There are 3 brothers in our area. MIL & disabled son used to stay with the oldest. She comes for 3 weeks at a time. She stayed there for over 25 years. Got upset with the wife and tried the youngest brother. Only stayed there once. Got mad at them. Now after 25 years she is trying us out. I have not had much time to be online. So far so good

I was blessed with a MIL whom I loved and who loved me, but I'll share a MIL joke.

A trout fisherman saw a woman flailing about in the deep water and a man standing at the edge of the lake, screaming for help. The fisherman ran up to the man, who said, "My wife is drowning and I can't swim. Please save her. I'll give you a hundred dollars."

The fisherman dove into the water. In ten powerful strokes he reached the woman, put his arm around her, and swam back to shore. Depositing her at the feet of the man, the fisherman said, "Okay, where's my hundred dollars?"

The man said, "Look, when I saw her going down for the third time, I thought it was my wife. But this is my mother-in-law."

The fisherman reached into his pocket and said, "Just my luck. How much do I owe you?"

I'm a sucker for free edits, so here's my new list:

Annie
Monet
Andrew
Kristen

Rachel
Brendon
Ragan
Kathy
Hayden
Britney
Lane
Enzo
Matt ~ winner

My MIL is pretty awesome. She helped us get a used van several years ago and fronted us enough money to make a down payment on a house.
