Whaddya think: The Q&A competition could be about Sheryl Crow ... trying to get as much mileage as possible out of her appearence in the house ... questions about the song titles, order of play, attire maybe, band members, etc. Could be anything and would be really fair way to keep from giving anyone an 'upper-hand' in the competition....

Well, they did a quiz about things and events in the house. They did a quiz about evicted houseguests.

It has to be something with paddles, because writing takes too much time and will be the tiebreaker. I think it will be a quiz about the remaining houseguests.

They are learning all right, their reading and watching The TV Clubhouse 24/7!!!!!!!!! And I think it's smart!!!!!!!!!It has to be a windfall few have ever had the opportunity to take advantage of, thousands of eyes watching your hamsters for you,giving min.by min. details of everything they are saying and doing. Plus free analysis and suggestions of any fraction of anything that comes in to their minds and charge them to watch. The more I think about this the more I feel like a hamster in a giant lab.

I much prefer the Q and A as opposed to physical stuff. The entire premis is a mind game and this is in keeping. Sliding oiled bodies on a skid or bowling leaves me cold.

I just wish they could think up some new and interesting games. Seems like they do the exact same one over and over AND OVER, or rip off Survivor games. Can't they find 2 or 3 creative brain cells in the entire Arnie group and come up with something different and interesting????

I agree Lurk. I think they need to come up with competitions that are much harder to throw. For instance, if they are sent to separate rooms and told to solve some kind of puzzle (based on things or happenings in the house) and the one who finishes in the least amount of time wins. It would be a big gamble to throw something like that. With the trivia, it's easier to throw it when you know who has been eliminated.

Who do the producers want to bias the contest towards this week? Who is going to make the best TV as HOH next week?

The producers should know what each house guest knows and does not know. They have been (unlike our censored selves) listening and watching 24/7.

Figure out who will make the best TV and you will have the highest probablity of this week's winner.

Didn't they do something like that in a prior BB? It may not have been for HOH but I'm sure there was some puzzle solving where they worked in teams? Maybe a luxury competition? The Will/Bunky helocopter ride possibly?

I'm not really sure Wcv. I think the Will/Bunky helicopter ride involved a challenge with blowing up balloons.

I think we, the board members/users, should start some sort of rumor/gossip about a particular houseguest and the need for that person to win a competition. Get the thread up to 200-300 messages with all the bogus details ... then watch and see if it ends up on the show! LOL, wouldn't that be something!

A Roddy moment here...do not read if you don't like spelling corrections.

I see this error so often I just had to post.

It's bated breath, not baited breath. Unless of course that was a joke about eating bugs or bait...lol

I thought about starting a new thread on this one but does anyone think that Jason will try for HOH? it seems his strategy of not revealing his strategy is working...that would be all over if he won HOH.
I wish they would make it impossible to throw the competion somehow. Like last week....that was so lame...it was so obvious that they chose that comp because it would be easy to make deals and throw the competition if needed

Cute1073: I think he could win HoH and still maintain 'Strategy-Silence' by playing it off as him being 'dictated' on how to perform his duties as HoH. ie. Nominate whoever Danielle wants him too and blame it on her, if it comes back to bite him later.

Looks like Chiara is not too interested... is she the one in the pool?? (from the pic you posted). Well, that should tell ya something...

Roddy either is so disinterested in his "buds" or he threw HOH. It was totally geared for him to win.

Question 1: Answer Josh
Question 2: Answer Eric
Question 3: Answer Chiara

He's either really clueless or really cocky. I say probably cocky that no one would nominate him again.

Actually I was thinking they should have game were the winner is totally random, thus you can't delibrately throw the game. The one I thought of was like Bocci Ball. Each HG tosses a ball at the target. The ball furthest away gets snapped open and whatever HG's name is inside is eliminated and keep going until only one remains. The HGs have no idea whose name is inside which ball. I wouldn't recommend this approach every week, just once or twice to "shake up" the game a bit. I also like the idea of nominating 3 people and POV has to be used to narrow the field to 2.

I think Dani, Lisa, Roddy and Gerry threw that challange on purpose. the first 3 picked "none of the above" come on, give me a break, at least Gerry had the smarts to try and look like he wasn't atempting to throw it. I am glad Jason got it, I think he knows who he plans to put up already and he will allow the others just to think they have influnced him, he is wise in the way of the game. Jason desreved the letter from home. I think he is out playing all of them. There is an old saying that fits him to a tee "Still Waters Run deep"

I don't think Dani threw it. She was warned by Gerry that she needed it, for survival. Both she and Jason KNEW that one of them had to win.

However, I do think Roddy threw it. He had talked with Chi earlier in the day that he planned on throwing it.
