LAST EDITED ON 08-19-05 AT 04:50 AM (EST)
Welcome back to the BigBrother Reality Aptitude Test ... 2!
Sorry to spring this on you but BigBrother is setting up for a "Double Elimination Week". Which means that you will need to get this entry in by Saturday at Showtime! Yes, 2 days away!
Before I get to the entry, let's share some of the scores and talk about what hit the fan.No one could have predicted Jennifer's win for HOH nor could they ever have predicted that James wouldn't be the one going, or any one of the Maggots for that matter. BUT it did happen!
Jennifer lied and schemed her way to HOH and nominated almost everyone but James.
Rachel escaped eviction by somehow winning the coasters game. And Kaysar, newly positioned, went into the GoldRoom.
Which sent Howie on a rampage that I wish was still going on. (That was sooo fun to watch.)
Parlayance to Kaysar's magic ability to play the worst game with the best intentions he becomes the figurative slap in the face of America, as the Maggots send him packing again. This time, I hope he didn't even unpacked his bags.
Week 6 Results:
The Power Players
HOH: Jennifer
POV: Rachel
POVuse: Yes
The Challenge Arena
FoodWinner: No challenge
Food Loser: No challenge
HOH's POV choice: April
The Evictees
Noms: Janelle / Rachel / Kaysar
Evict: Kaysar
Non-Evict: Janelle / Rachel
This astounding set of events made for some desperately horrific BBrat Scores.
As in ...
No one guessed the correct HOH. No one got the nominees (none of them). Nor did anyone get the correct evictee or even the correct non-evictee. Bad week all around.
Only 2 people correctly guessed the POV winner and only 6 of you guessed that the POV would indeed be used. Only 1 of you got the correct choice for HOH's POV choice.
That one player was, newcomer, bystander.
Bystander made the most correct predicitions (3 of them) and lands themselves in the HOH. Putting every single remaining bbrat on PB&J. Minus ARnutz, who gets another chance to use the PB&JPass.
HOH:
bystander ~ 12 (+5) = 17
In the Crowd:
ARnutz ~ 2 *PB&J Pass
PB&J Crew:
Captain_Savem ~ 4 (-3) = 1
DearAbby ~ 2 (-3) = -1
LibraRising ~ 2 (-3) = -1
Road Kill ~ 2 (-3) = -1
Yensid ~ 2 (-3) = -1
alwaysintruble ~ 2 (-3) = -1
WaterDrop ~ 0 (-3) = -3
RebelCrown ~ 0 (-3) = -3
Bebo ~ 0 (-3) = -3
bdemoney ~ 0 (-3) = -3
Charonna ~ 0 (-3) = -3
Lasann ~ 0 (-3) = -3
In Limbo:
Kyra 1 week no entry
seahorse 1 week no entry
Although the dismal scores were indeed dismal, the fact that everyone had dismal scores does little to change the leaderboard.
Although it must be noted that alwaysintruble breaks into the top5. A Top5 of seven.
Final Tallies:
DearAbby ~ -1 (120) = 119
Road Kill ~ -1 (107) = 106
ARnutz ~ 2 (104) = 106 *PB&J Pass
Yensid ~ -1 (101) = 100
alwaysintruble ~ -1 (95) = 94
WaterDrop ~ -3 (96) = 93
RebelCrown ~ -3 (96) = 93
Bebo ~ -3 (93) = 90
LibraRising ~ -1 (90) = 89
Kyra ~ 0 (84) = 84
Captain_Savem ~ 1 (70) = 71
bdemoney ~ -3 (69) = 66
Charonna ~ -3 (68) = 65
Lasann ~ -3 (65) = 62
seahorse ~ 0 (50) = 50
bystander ~ 17 (0) = 17

Onto the POP QUIZ...
This entry is due by Saturday at 8pm boardtime (5pm pacific).
The big difference between this entry and a normal one is that this week you can lose points for each incorrect answer. So watch out!!!

*The Premise*
Each week's test will examine your ability to see into the future and predict the weekly winners and losers of (almost) every aspect of the show. From HOH to POV to Eviction. Each correct guess will result in points being added to your individual tally.
The player with the most points at seasons end will be crowned "The Biggest BBrat!".
Simple and streamlined.*The Outline*
Every week I will post questions covering 4 sections.
1. The Power Players
These questions will test your ability to predict the coming weeks HOH, POV and America's choice.
2. The Challenge Arena
These questions will test your ability to predict the coming weeks Food and Luxury Challenges.
3. The Evictees
These questions will test your ability to predict the nominees, the evictee and the non-evictee.
4. Bonus Questions
These questions will test your ability to predict various other outcomes of the show. Or some other form of game/challenge I may have decided to create.
There will be a varying amount of questions from week to week.
*The Rules*
Deadline for all entries will be each and every Thursday, at beginning of showtime EDT. (There may be a "POP QUIZ" thrown in as well. 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.
Any player who misses 3 entries in a row will be thrown into the fishtank.
*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, if a question cannot be answered definitively then it will be removed from consideration.
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.
PB&J penalty:
The PB&J 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.
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.
*ALSO, any answer with "None", "No One", "all the rest" or "everybody" will not be counted.
Where it asks to name one HG, simply name one HG only.
The final tally will be posted when all challenges and questions have been resolved. A.K.A. a week later.
