Cameltoes | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:11 pm     I believe they can ring the bell anytime they are ready to submit their guess and the thirty minute window only applies after the last clue is unveiled. Then, they ALL must submit a guess before the time is up. Maybe the third clue will be a red carpet. |
Spunky | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:12 pm     For the third clue I said the man on the moon statuette... I bet the guys won't get it yet... but why isn't Ali ringing the bell, she got it. |
Wilsonatmd | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:12 pm     cross, it's a important show....this year is the 20th anniversary of the awards. And it's not just for the popular artists on MTV.... For example, here are the noms for the top award, Video of the year: 50 Cent, "In Da Club" Eminem, "Lose Yourself" Missy Elliot, "Work It" Justin Timberlake, "Cry Me A River" Johnny Cash, "Hurt" (seriously...he did a cover of an old Nine Inch Nails song, and the producer of the video is pretty well known in the industry and did a stunning video...this video got 6 nominations, third overall to Missy Elliot (8 noms) and Justin Timberlake (7 noms), and ahead of 50 cent and Eminem (5 each)....he was supposed to go to the ceremonies, but he's been battling a nervous system disease for years and is in the hospital) |
Hobbs | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:13 pm     They should have Jun announce the noms from the red carpet over the plasma screen. That would be great. Robert would be double pised off! |
C1mag | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:13 pm     I still say they should put that moonman trophy out there. I think they would get it in a second and since the big apple is already a clue they would know it's in NY. Radio City would be the catch if they had to say that as well. |
Hamsterlady | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:13 pm     Here's a good place where all the rules for this POV competition are posted in one post: http://www.jokersupdates.com/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=Discussion&Number=553370&page=0&view=expanded&sb=5&o=2&fpart=1 |
Bonzacat | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:13 pm     I'm cracking up over all the interpretations of the "30 minutes" they have for something, at some time, having to do with the POV comp. I've read 30 minutes after food comp to guess the answer to the "where in the world is Jun" clues. I've read 30 minutes to guess an answer after one HG rings the bell.... And here is my take: I kinda thought that 30 minutes after the last HG made there "where's Jun" guess in the DR, BB would announce the winner. I wonder who out there knows the real deal? |
Bbfanatic | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:15 pm     those nominees all SUCK !!! if i had to choose, i would go for johnny. im not a fan of his, but he has to be better than that other crap. |
Bonzacat | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:16 pm     Hamsterlady -- there was the answer to my POV question, right in your link. Are we having a mind meld today or something? It's 30 minutes after the final clue is given - they must guess by then. Thanks! :-) |
Ryanc829 | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:17 pm     Oh...my...god. Those name's on the same list as Johnny Cash? *sigh* Edited to add... Even if it is the MTV VMA, it would be nice to see Johnny win. I doubt he'll see the next MTV VMA. |
Hamsterlady | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:17 pm     Anybody else hear that sound in the background on the LF's???? Kinda like a real loud sewing machine or a quiet jackhammer. |
Hamsterlady | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:18 pm     No prob Bonza. And BTW, this year is the 19th anniversary of the MTV VMA's. The first VMA show was in 1984. See link below for some major flashbacks! http://www.mtv.com/onair/vma/timecapsule/time.jhtml?y=1984 |
Meggieprice | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:18 pm     Sea- that is a good strategy indeed and it would put pressure on Jeebert. Bonza- lol- I am pretty sure it is that 30 minutes after the last clue the guesses must be in, and I know the answer- the name of the winner and their guess, would be on a plasma screen but I do not remember when the winner would be revealed. I do have to agree that if the winner will be known today then Jun may indeed make her nominations on video or somehow from the awards. It would be great publicity for BB if she did them during the awards... |
Crazydog | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:18 pm     I thought it was that you can ring the bell at any time. You make your guess. It doesn't force anyone else to guess. After the third clue is revealed, anyone who has not guessed yet has 30 minutes to make a guess. To me, that is the only thing that makes sense.... you can ring in early and take your chances, or you can wait until the 3rd clue is revealed. If no one gets it, then Jun wins it. I don't really think the MTV Video Music Awards are a "major" award. There's too many of these award shows and this award is the perfect example of it. I personally couldn't care less who wins. If I'm watching tonight, the only reason would be to see Jun. Otherwise.... yawn. |
Emdanzma | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:20 pm     Thanks Hamsterlady for that link. Much clearer now. So, they each have 30 minutes after lunch to ring the bell? Then 30 minutes later they announce the winner? Kidding ;) |
Bbfanatic | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:21 pm     i heard on tv this morning johnny is up for 6 awards. hopefully he wins at least one. i think they will |
R151996 | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:21 pm     That would be my guess, Spunky, if it isn't an audio/video clue. They might not want it to be that obvious though, so the HOH would have a reasonable chance to win the veto. "Video Killed the Radio Star" might be MTV's signature song, but it would still require putting together the clues to get the right answer. TV Guide shows this as being the 20th year for the VMAs. 1984 was the first--add 19 years to both and you get 2003 as the 20th. |
Seamonkey | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:22 pm     They can ring the bell ANYTIME they want. After a person rings the bell, they go to the DR and write down their guess. They have until 30 minutes after getting their last clue to ring and guess. Whenever BB decides to reveal the winner, it will go to the FIRST HG who guesses correctly. If no one guesses correctly, Jun will hold POV. At least that is what I gathered listening to them read the directions last night. All four of them are just sleeping it off instead of thinking. |
Ryanc829 | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:23 pm     Hey ya'll...suppose we oughta move discussion of the actual VMA's to the appropriate area? |
Jagger | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:23 pm     Crazydog I think you are right, or at least from what I have read that is how they were going to do the POV |
Hobbs | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:23 pm     The first clue: Big Apple - New York City 2nd: Video Tape - VMA's 3rd: ??? - Radio City Music Hall City, Place, Event. |
Crossfire | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:24 pm     Wilsonatmd: Is it? I hope I did not imply is wasn't, I was just saying that I'd never get this as a participant. My experience with videos is pretty limited. Most of the music related video I watch, is bootleg concert videos of Led Zeppelin and Stevie Ray Vaughn. I'm stuck a bit in the past musically. |
Ryanc829 | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:24 pm     Hobbs - 'spose the last clue will be a radio? |
Hamsterlady | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:25 pm     You're right R15! Me can't add properly right now....hehehe And for those interested, Johnny Cash is up for: Best Video of the Year, Best Male Video, Best Direction in a Video, Best Art Direction in a Video, Best Editing in a Video, and Best Cinematography in a Video.

Emdanzma | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 01:25 pm     Hey they could put something to do with the Rockettes...don't they perform there? |
