Hello and Welcome to the BigBrother Reality Aptitude Test ... 2!The hardly anticipated sequel to the smashed hit from last summer. BBRAT1.
This weekly "test" will tend to highlight the "Beforehand Assumed Decision"'s we all are likely of making when the upcoming BigBrother season, "The Season of Secrets", gets underway.
Anyone choosing to take part in a fun diversion while we watch this seasons "househamsters", from the comfort of our chairs and couches, is strongly encouraged to join. At Any Time.
*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.
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 else" will not be counted.
Where it asks to name one HG, simply name one HG.
The points will be given out when all challenges and questions have been resolved. A.K.A. a week later.

I'm glad to see this game return, as it makes the viewing of this show much more paltable. However, this season looks like it will be more difficult than last year to anticipate the hamsters' actions, so that will spark my interest more.
