Pool Party Update!

Alright my Big Brother Crazies and Reality Dazies!

We have our Pool Party, where everyone has been assigned their houseguest, and we’ll be watching that all summer long as we cheer and jeer ‘our’ houseguest on – but then I had a thought.

Ya know? Folks might like something where they get to PICK their houseguests too. And what if they like more than one? And what if they’re the first evicted from the original Pool? How sad that would be!

So – here’s a deal for you – special and hot off the press on this 4th of July.
It’s the BBE Pool Party v2 – You Pick’um!
What’s at stake? A $50 Amazon Gift Certificate from yours truly!
Here’s how it will work:

1. Each week, you’ll pick your team – 3 houseguests that you think will net you the most points during the three CBS Network shows each week, Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday nights. You can choose any of the houseguests for your team, but once you choose them for the week and I close the thread, you are locked in until after the Eviction on Thursday night. The HOH Competition on Thursday will be the first points gained during the week.

(For Example: Thursday’s show will have eviction and HOH – Eviction points counts for that week, HOH points for the following week.)

2. There are a variety of ways that we will add and subtract points. Only instances that occur during the CBS Network shows on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursdays will count!
They points are as follows:

a. Wins HOH +7
b. Wins POV +5
c. Goes on Slop –3
d. Cries +2
e. Gets Bleeped +1
f. Kisses another HG on the lips +3
g. Fights +3
h. Has a body part blurred +2
i. Nominated for Eviction –3
j. Wins Luxury Comp +3
k. Evicted –7

3. You can join/drop at any point during the season. This is about total points – so it’s in your best interest to get your team picked asap – but if don’t start week one, that’s alright.

4. The first week will include the Premiere show – so Thursday, Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday.

5. The count of the BBC/RD/BBE Team will be FINAL. If you think that I made a mistake or missed something, you can let me know when I post that show’s totals – within 24 hours of my posting and I will double check. After that, suck it up. If I come up with the same count twice? That’s the final answer.

6. The deadline for the first week’s Team picks is 7pm EST, July 9th, Premiere Time! You may pick again after eviction the following week, at any time before Sunday’s show, EST. I will lock the thread at the deadline, and you will be locked in for the week.

7. Most points at the end of the season? Wins!

So who’s in? If you want to play along, then sign up under the Pool Party v2 – You Pick’um thread, Week One, on the forums and we’ll get this party started! Spread the word, tell your friends, and let’s have fun! Don’t forget the Original Pool Party too – you can definitely play in both! Pool #1 is full, but if we get 13 more, we’ll open Pool number Two!

Let’s get this party STARTED!
