It's hard to tell from what's being shown on the air below who's on what alliance. For all we know, they're all one alliance!

Why doesn't Hamster House have any live feeds of the PM's going around, anyway? We want to see those secret negotiations!

"Week 2 HoH Competition Question"
Posted by Zenbot on 08-19-11 at 10:12 PM
LAST EDITED ON 08-19-11 AT 10:35 PM (EST)

Greetings, hamsters! Are you enjoying your time on the hamster wheels provided in the Hamster House? You know, our mascot on the red Hamster House wheel is fast! But how fast?

Here's a clue. But isn't that hamster a little bit slow? After all, it's just an animation. Let's see a real hamster get clocked! Here's another clue.

With these clues and some guesswork, answer this week's Head of Household competition question. Everyone except last week's HoH (that's you, jbug!) may submit an entry. The closest answer wins the HoH competition, with ties decided by a random draw. PM me (Zenbot) your answer by Sunday night, 11:00.

How many revolutions per minute can our mascot hamster spin the Hamster House Wheel running at maximum speed?


"RE: Week 2 HoH Competition Question"
Posted by jbug on 08-19-11 at 10:34 PM
ROFLMAO at the 2nd clue! I'll be watching that all week!

Oh well guess I should start packing up my stuff in the HoH room; only a couple more days to enjoy the comforts of home.
Maybe I can hang with the new HoH (~hint hint~) whoever that may be. I'll be perusing my recipe file to see what goodies I can cook up for ya'll.

I'd love to take a guess on this one! Maybe I will just for fun.

Hamsters LOL. so....twiddling my little fuzzy toes. How about truth or dare.

1st Question to the entire horde: Have you ever smooched with more then one person/hamster (I am so PC)in a single night?

A horde is the correct term for a group of hamsters, I googled. Marauding horde?

I'll go first: NOT! I have to see what kind of degenerates I'm associating with before I divulge my lurid pristine past.


OH NO!

Sadly, the answer is yes for me. But that was back in high school. Now I'm happily married and I've only smooched my honey and my son on the same night (but not in a gross way). So Miss Suzzee, it sounds like your high school times were kinda boring!!! Ha ha.

"HoH Competition Results"
Posted by Zenbot on 08-21-11 at 11:47 PM

Good evening, House hamsters! We have some news for you.

First, all of the answers to the Head of Household competition are in!

Before we announce the winner of the competition we will be awarding a Luxury Prize for the most creative answer to the competition. This prize goes to these two Hamsters...

and

... for their answers of "0", claiming that our mascot House Hamster is stuffed and can't run! Well, our mascot House Hamster is sure stuffed, alright, with all the food you have been passing around in the House! Krismiss2us and zazzy, your Luxury Prize is one stuffed hamster to put by your pillow to snuggle up to at night while you sleep. Happy snoozing!

Now for the moment you all have been waiting for. Who will be the second Head of Household? The correct answer for the Head of Household question is "277.5" revolutions per minute. See below for an explanation if you're interested. The winner of this week's Head of Household competition is...

... for her answer of "407" as the nearest correct answer. Congratulations, suzzee! You may now decorate your Head of Household room if you so choose.

Suzzee, you now must choose two nominees for eviction and post their names in this subthread by Monday (tomorrow) night, 11:00.

That's all for tonight, House hamsters. Happy spinning!

Clue 1: The dimensions of the Hamster House Wheel (clue 1) is 14 x 13 x 12 cm. With the stand, the height would be 14 cm while the diameter would be 13 cm, and the narrow sideways width is 12 cm. Thus, with a diameter of 13 cm, the Wheel's revolution circumference is 40.8407 cm.
Clue 2: A hamster's maximum speed before spinning out (clue 2) is 6.8 km/hour. This is equal to 680,000 cm/hour or 11333.3 cm/minute.
Answer: Thus, the number of revolutions per minute is 11333.3 cm/minute / 40.8407 cm/revolution = 277.5 revolutions/minute.

Posted by michel on 08-22-11 at 00:14 AM

I'll be looking forward to see your HOH room but, unfortunately, the Zenbot kept us waiting too long. I'll be heading to my very ordinary room to get a good night's sleep.

Well, the last entry came in almost right at 11:00, and it took a bit of time to get the results posts and updates put together!

Perhaps we can look at moving the time back to 10:00 instead of 11:00 in the future.

What do you hamsters think about bringing the time back one hour to 10:00 p.m. (starting next week, not this one)?

I needed the extra time to be confused this week ;), but 10pm would work!

Posted by Zenbot on 08-22-11 at 12:35 PM
It looks fairly unanimous then.

Starting tomorrow, we'll switch to 10:00 times. In fairness to suzzee, she will still have until 11:00 to post the nominees tonight.

And we'll reconsider yet another hour earlier at 9:00 as the season progresses. My producer, though, is often quite busy between 9:00 and 10:00, so for now, 10:00 is fine with him.

Like Big Jeff says, "Slap on that happy face and come on up!"


OK, those of you who are doing Tribes BBRAT game you'll recognize the cut and paste HOH room I had there last week. Golly, I'm lazier then Kalia, no small feat.

The question now is should I let ya'll think I'm a math wiz?

Here's how I did it:

I took the dimension of the chocolate donut I was eating Saturday, divided it by pi square, (blueberry pi btw) times the number of circles my dog makes before he lays down for a nap and then decided I hated math.

Truth: I watched the running hamster video, counted about 20 revolutions in the 3 seconds or so that he was near top speed. 60 sec in a min so... 60/3 = 20, 20 x 20 = 400, 407 just because I like 7. Mystery solved, yup just dumb luck an here I sit in HOH. Oh Big Brother.


You gotta love the tree house combination bed and spy shack. Send up the Fritos. And beer, I've got Sam Adams, woo hoo.

Oooh, a picture of my faithful companion Socky >smooch<

OMG! This is me in the third grade.

This is me at Halloween, my Grandsock made me that costume.

Ooooh, new jammie sleep shirt!

As HOH it is my duty to nominate two players for eviction. This has been a crrrraaaaaazzzzzyyy week. So hold on to your furry ears here we go.

I'll pull the first key:

JBug you are safe.

JBug pulls the next key michel you are safe.

michel pulls the next key Corvis you are safe.

Corvis pulls the next key zazzy you are safe.

This means that Dear Abby and krismiss you are nominated for eviction.

I like you both and enjoy your company but one of you needs to go to further my game.

Good luck in the Veto competition both of you.

Now that suzzee has named her nominations for eviction from the Hamster House, it's time for the Power of Veto competition!

All House hamsters can participate, except suzzee as the Head of Household. Note: Starting next week, everyone including the HoH will participate in PoV competitions.

Here are the Power of Veto competition instructions:

1. Pick your favorite number between 1 and 1000 (inclusive).
2. Pick a number that you think is the average of all hamsters' favorite numbers (including yours) who are in the PoV competition.

The closest answer to this average number wins the PoV competition. Any ties will be determined by a random draw.

PM me (the Zenbot) these two numbers by tomorrow, Tuesday at 10:00 p.m. board time:
1) Your favorite number between 1 and 1000, and
2) Your pick for the number that you think is the average of all participating hamsters' favorite numbers submitted (including yours).

As usual, any late entries will be disqualified.

Until tomorrow, have fun, hamsters!

You'll get a couple of different types of challenges in the coming weeks that I'm working on. One will be a map, another will involve words. They just take a little more work on my part.

What's up with the accusations? I'm just eating my portion. I don't want to be voted out like Clarence, James and Tyrone on Survivor for eating too much.

Anyway, dry toast is better for hamsters than turkey. So I'll just take that fowl away from you guys and let you have the bread. I'm only thinking of your health...

Hi, everybody! It's time for the Power of Veto competition results.

Well, we got all kinds of favorite numbers from everyone and the average of all your favorite numbers is... 498. Wow, that's almost smack dab right in the middle.

So the winner of the PoV competition with the nearest answer (right smack dab in the middle itself!) of 500 is...

Congratulations, jbug! You now have twenty four hours to decide if you wish to save either of the nominees up for eviction. If so, suzzee as the HoH will name a replacement nominee. So, jbug, post your Power of Veto save choice (or whether you don't intend to use your Power of Veto) here by tomorrow night, Wednesday 10:00 board time.

Until next time, everyone!

So be it! The Hamster House board has been updated.

At this point, you hamsters have a couple of days to socialize a bit and cast your votes by Friday night, 10:00!

I will post the vote result as soon as all votes are in. The next HoH competition (all set to go) will be posted in the Week 3 board immediately after that.

Happy dancing, hamsters!

Also to add: suzzee, send me your HoH tie-breaker vote in case the vote ends in a tie. Your vote will not be revealed within the vote count unless a tie needs to be broken.

Come on everyone say CHEESE!

This is why I never come out of the HOH room before I get my hair and make-up done. Looks like I had a rough night(s).

Here's michel working on his game. He only broke out two windows this week, I hope Mr. Cameraman will be able to come back to work soon. Nice game Mr. Shankopotomis.

Finally, we got Corvis to stop boating in the toilet, here he is getting ready to do some laps in the pool. Don't forget your floaties.


Here's Zazzy before BB told her to stop singing show tunes from the Cats. She was really belting them out. I like it when Zazzy drinks.

Speaking of drinking, here's D'Abs after we found that second case of brewskies. You're lookin' pretty comfy there DA.

JBug, I'm sure that production didn't say you were fat, they said you were Phat. That's a whole different thing altogether. Besides, you don't wanna get all bulgy in the wrong places. You know like Jessee ~ewwww~ right?

We have got to do something about the litter box, krismiss swears she can't get the stank outta her tootsies. I'd hit them with some Pine-Sol or something honey.



Oh, here's a secret meeting of one of the alliances, mmmmm, who is who here????

Production sent this one in for Newsomewayne. Apparently they've had trouble keeping food in the sequester cage.

One last contribution, our own Zenbot's little buddy, Zenhamster. He's starred in such movies as "Zenny the Robot"
"I, Zenny", "RoboZen" and "Shorter Circut, as Zenny 5. Applause for a true DAW and his little hamsterbot too.

Our Zenbot is the offspring of the Chenbot and the Zingbot 3000?

She'd like that but she's adopted.
They went to a scrap yard in an under-developed country and brought her back. That makes our Zenbot a Chenbot wannabee.

ETA: Zing!!!!


Thanks Dear Abby!

A zing always works best when it's edited in later. Keep 'em guessing.

Our Zenbot is a banana, right?

"RE: ~~~~running~~~~"
Posted by michel on 08-25-11 at 04:07 PM
That depends. Our Zenbot's creator is a banana but the Zenbot itself is named Trulie Zenbot and that sounds like a woman's name to me.

It's really like Dr. Frankenstein and his creature, there's confusion between the two but, in our case, I'm not sure which is the smart one and which is the ugly one.


Oh! And hummmm...Zing!


Thanks Dear Abby!

Teasing Zenbot? Brave souls. I'm thinking that Zenbot never heard of the Three Laws of Robotics.


1. Robots must never harm human beings or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. Robots must follow instructions from humans without violating rule 1.
3. Robots must protect themselves without violating the other rules.

1. So? I'm a hamster.
2. Is that why the Zenbot is ignoring us?
3. I have this club to protect myself.


Thanks Dear Abby!

Hellow fellow hamsters!

I know this is a late post. But I just wanna say that I've really been enjoying getting to know you all in this house. I've been learning a lot about how this works and would love to be kept around another week. I hope you find me somewhat useful and funny, even if I am a bit of a ding dong.

*hugs to Abbs* No hard feelings to whichever of us goes.

Hugs to you, too, kris. I'll miss you, no matter whether I'm here or in jury next week.

I'd like to thank everyone for all the fun we've had in the cage, and I hope you'll vote to keep me here.

(and will someone please tell me how to make a picture smaller so it doesn't take up so much space? Thanks!)


*removed photo till I can accomplish the Zenbot technique of photo reduction. So far, all attempts have failed.

Assuming you're using MS Windows instead of a Mac...

1) Copy and save your pic somewhere.
2) Open All Programs > Accessories > Paint
3) Open the pic file
4) Resize the pic using the Resize icon. For example, 50 for vertical, 50 for horizontal (make these the same)
5) Save the pic
6) Post the pic

This is also useful to resize pics that are over the RTVW limit of 75K to upload.

I would caption it if I could see it but the picture doesn't show. All I see is the title: "Hamster Bottoms".
Yes, I was a party hamster in my youth, did a lot of crazy things on spring break so there may be a picture or two of my bottom floating around. Big Deal. Every hamster needs a break from the stress of the spinning wheel.

"Eviction Vote Results & Farewell"
Posted by Zenbot on 08-26-11 at 04:35 PM

Greetings, hamsters! All of the votes are in and it's time to announce the eviction vote results! But before we announce the results, there's a few things you need to know.

First, anyone evicted from the Hamster House will serve on the Jury to determine the winner between the two finalists. While hamsters are sequestered, they may not PM other active House hamsters or particpate in any of the Hamster House threads, either in the House or in the Audience. They may, however, PM other sequestered hamsters while in the Sequester House.

The evicted hamster and the House hamsters may say their farewells until tomorrow Saturday night, 11:00, when this Week's thread will officially come to a close. A new Week thread will be opened with the Head of Household competition soon.

Now for the results!

By a vote of 4-0, the hamsters have voted to evict...

Farewell, DearAbby, and may you enjoy the comforts of the Sequester House.

Until next week, have fun hamsters!

I am sorry, Abby. This was definitely a respect vote. You were a threat to win the game and that's why the tide turned against you. You will be missed!

Dear Abby, I know you must be really upset right now, probably want to punch us so I want to say I'm sorry. You see, it had to be done because you are a very smart player and a very nice person. I wish you well, have fun watching us spinning our wheels in the dirt. Maybe we will play again and things will be different then.
