Best plans laid. Boogie gets laid as well. James just gets f**ked.

Welcome back to the BBRAT.

This week on the show:
Boogie won HOH. Yes. I said Boogie. Who knew?
His choices for nominations were Janelle and James.
Both expendable, or so the story goes.
However through some miracle of miracles, Janelle wins the POV and takes herself off.
Leaving Boogie to nominate CrazyGeorge in her place.
Hmmm.... James or George? James or George?
Whichever shall we choose?
Ah, who am I kidding...twas one of the easiests decisions of all season.
And suprise of all suprises James doesn't headbutt anyone. Or cry. Or do too much whining.

The Power Players:
A. HOH: Boogie (6)
B. POV: Janelle (6)
C. Will the POV be used? Yes (4)
The Evictees:
A. Nominee: James, Janelle or George (10)
B. Evicted: James (10)
C. Non-EvictedNominee: Janelle or George (10)
BBRATBonus:
No Bonus

____________________________________

HouseKeeping:

* If any of the SlopPass winners chooses to do so, they can temporarily loan out there pass to another bbrat on the slop diet. Please post your intentions in the weekly thread and I'll make the appropriate adjustments.

*The Rules*
Deadline for all entries will be each and every Thursday, at beginning of showtime, boardtime. (There may be a "POP QUIZ" or two thrown in as well. 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.)
The BBRAT will be open to new players at any time.
Those who make an entry after the deadline will not be considered.
Those who miss an entry will have to go without gaining any points for the week.
If a vacation or other time-constraint happens, you are allowed to have a proxy-player make your entry for you.
Any player who misses 3 entries in a row will be thrown into the firepit.
*The Entry*
The game will start with the prediction of HOH and end with the prediction of the evictee. From Thurs. to Thurs. All predictions will be made regarding the next weeks episodes.
I will try to post the new entry thread every Fri. Each questions outcome will be determined by the show itself. For instance, If a challenge is held but not aired, in the show (either tues, thurs. or sat.), it will not count.
*ALSO, any answer with "None", "No One", "all the rest" or "everybody else" will not be counted.
Where it asks to name one HG, simply name one HG.
*Points*
If a question is correct you will receive the points alloted in the parentheses after 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 an already evicted HG, it will be worth 0 points.
HOH Bonus:
The HOH bonus goes to the person/s who acheived the highest weekly score. This HOHwinner will have 5 bonus points added to their tally.
SlopDiet Penalty:
The SlopDiet penalty is given to (read: taken from) all folks with fewer than half of the HOH winner's weekly point total. This penalty will be -3 points. This penalty will be determined before the HOH bonus is added.
The points will be given out when all challenges and questions have been resolved. A.K.A. a week later.
