Delia | Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 03:26 pm  I have enjoyed the 24 hour Dance Marathon, especially when BB announces at any hour: All HGs to the dance floor. This nearly week-long 24 Hour Challenge gives the house more of an atmosphere that this is truly a game and not a Summer resort in Southern California, which is what some HGs and some people on this board seem to think it is. One suggestion: A 24 hour treadmill challenge for a week with two treadmills and the HGs have to accrue so many miles by noon on a Friday. Delia |
Bubbaesq | Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 03:34 pm  I couldn't agree more. Keep up these 24 hour challenges that put them in such close physical contact with each other & I think it will add fuel to the paranoia fire that's coming. They couldn't have scripted the rush to hide from the plane last night. As soon as the hgs started relaxing together, bb pulled the all dance. I was kinda disappointed when it was to keep them from seeing the plane. I was actually kinda proud of bb for playing with them that way. What a let down to find out if was all a ruse. |
Iron_Chef | Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 03:40 pm  Yeah, these 24 hour marathons are enthralling. Next challenge should be a 24/7 pie eating contest in the love raft. If they fail, everybody has to wear the sumo outfits for as long as they remain in the house. The show is getting dull. Hose down the cage! Make the monkeys work for the money! Hehe... |
Laurie | Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 03:49 pm  Delia and Bubbaesq respectfully, I would have to disagree. Personally I enjoy watching the interaction on a wider view. Having 2 people always tied up with a challenge it seems to me creates less interesting dialogue among the houseguests. It takes away from the time they interact as a group and the time they manage to pair off and have private conversations. I have seen more live feeds of people sleeping this week than I have ever seen watching the feeds, most of them sleeping at the same time. While you do get the advantage of having at least 2 people awake to feed into at anytime, usually the conversation is dull and it inevitably reverts to endless song singing. Just my opinion. |
Bubbaesq | Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 04:59 pm  Maybe I misinterpreted the live feeds this week. I was under the impression that there was a certain amount of nomination talk and pairing off when not dancing. Not to mention that dancing was in pairs. Perhaps it was toooo comfortable for them because they have control over who dances w/who and when. Just thinking of the mind games that bb could be playing. |
