 All is welcome to celebrate Big Brother's 25th Anniversary season!  Cootie and myself will be your hosts for this year's pool!  First off, you get to pick one houseguest to be your captain (who will earn you the double the points) and three other houseguest that will earn you normal points. You also will get to choose four six other houseguests to be on your reserve team. In the event you lose your captain or one of the other spots, they could be replaced with a member from your reserve. If there is a twist(s), we will adapt to the game. Also, for one time only, you may switch someone from your active roster for someone (that is still active) from your reserve list. As for the scoring, you get to do your own scoring (optional, if you want to) and get to post it too (also, optional forming a list). Your host(s) will be doing the scoring and posting of results  Scoring breakdown is pretty simple to make the math easy for everyone (optional): HOH - 2 pts. POV - 1 pt. Each week (period) in the house - 1 pt. Evicted/Quit - (minus 1 pt.) Unevicted - 1 pt. Winner of Big Brother - 6 pts. Runner Up - 3 pts. Also, you get to choose a name for your team!  The team with the best name as chosen by the players in the pool will be awarded 3 pts., 2nd best name gets 2 pts., and 3rd best name gets 1 pt.. The deadline to submit your team is before the start of the following week's show (eviction). And if you want to help with the scoring or post some food/cute animal pics just PM me your interest.  Good luck everyone!

Expect the unexpected!  After watching the premiere episode, the multiverse twist and lengthening of the season to 100 days, I'm increasing the size of the reserve from 4 players to 6! Also, if they bring in new players, I'm allowing you to replace one of your unevicted unactivated reserve player from your reserve list with one of the new player(s). This could be done only up to two times. If they do not bring in new players, you are stuck with your current team. Good luck! |

Cootie and myself will be handling the scoring and posting of the results. Hopefully, more of you will want to take part in the pool if you don't have to score yourself! You'll just need to sub in your reserves if your main players are eliminated.
I haven't watched anything yet as I was out of town on a road trip. I plan to just guess my way into a team by tomorrow at 5PM Pacific Daylight Time (AKA Big Brother time)!
It's good to see people signing up for some fun with the pool!

Whoop whoop! I love the pools even though I tend to do poorly in them. I do slightly better when I dont make a team full of my early favorites so I am doing to NOT do that again. Also, I haven't read the live feeds threads so there may be some info I am missing but thats ok.

The multiverse is full of surprises... Oh my gosh...expect the unexpected again!!!  For one time only, you may use the BB time laser to travel through space & time and switch someone from your active roster with someone (still in the game) on your reserve list. If there is no one left on your reserve list you are out of luck. Good luck players! |

It is time for the favorite name contest. I made a list of the teams on page 1 post 2. Check it out to see if I made a correct transfer of your team's info. Anyways, voting for the best names start right now. Everyone gets to vote up to 3 different team names as their favorite(s). The team with the most votes at the end of the voting period (probably a few days) gets 3 pts. added to their score. The team with the second most votes gets 2 pts. added, and the third team with the most votes gets 1 pt. added to their score. Goodluck everyone! |

Week One Scoring SmoothiesThe scoring for week 1 goes as follows -HOH winner - Reilly - 2 pts. POV winner - Hisam - 1 pt. Evicted/Quit - Luke and Kirsten- (Minus 1 pt. each) Each week (period) in the house - everyone - 1 pt. Captain gets double the points. Plus any team name winning bonus (see above). So it looks pretty easy for week 1. Reilly gets 3 pts., Hisam gets 2 pts., both Luke and Kirsten gets 0 pts. while everyone else gets 1 pt.. So the totals before the favorite name bonus should be: High Voltage 7 pts. Hamster squad 5 Who Will Survive? 6 The Cirieously Misled 5 BB MultiVerse 6 I need to go multi-nurse my multi-butthurt 6 Nether Ever! 5 After Favorite Names Bonus AddedI need to go multi-nurse my multi-butthurt (allornothing) 9 pts. High Voltage (monte71) 9 The Cirieously Misled (scoot13) 8 Nether Ever! (Cootie) 8 BB MultiVerse (allysense) 8 Who Will Survive? (doodlemom921) 7 Hamster squad (dagwood) 6
