TV ClubHouse: Archive: What would the Jury's questions be?? (to Ali and Jun):
Archive through September 15, 2003
Spunky | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:01 pm     I think they have their mind made up by the time they all come back to the house for their selection, but still they have to ask them questions?? What do you think could they ask them? I think, it's useless to ask such questions: "Why do you think you deserve the money". .Or "Why did you lie to me...??" I just can't see any question that could change their mind. This series of questions will only favor Jun over Ali since she is more articulate and knows how to choose her words to convince them she played a better game. Why don't they just go directly to state their opinion and the reason they pick one and not the other. |
Wendo | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:03 pm     I disagree that the questions favor Jun. Ali's participated in pageants and has likely gone through a Q&A type interview during said pageants. I think Ali has an equal shot at the questions as Jun. |
Spunky | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:04 pm     But what would you ask?? I have no idea... |
Wendo | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:06 pm     Hmmm, let me think about it ok? I'll get back to ya! |
Wendo | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:08 pm     Oh, I got one. Ali, do you feel that you're choice to not protect Nathan after he saved you from veto was a good decision or bad decision now that the game is over, and why? Don't you feel that you owed him more loyalty after he saved you? |
Amari | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:12 pm     I would ask questions like, what was your strategy when you came into the house and how did you have to alter it (if you did)? In what ways did you manipulate the other HG's (myself included)? Who did you perceive as your biggest threat to win the $$? Did you deliberately throw any of the competitions? What was your best move in the game? Did you make any mistakes along the way that you thought might cost you the F2? |
Wendo | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:17 pm     Oooh, good questions Amari. Dang! |
Spunky | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:24 pm     Oh Wendo and Amari, those are great questions... I thought they would want to make them squirm one more time... out of revenge..maybe.. I remember that lady from Survivor 1 really nailing Richard.. But if they are asking the intelligent questions you suggested, it will be great to see what their answer will be. I don't think the answers will change their mind, however, I believe the Jury last year came back almost unanimousl for Lisa, only Jason had stay loyal to Danielle. So I think they are coming prepared already... Again, if they answer that they had to act the way they did to win the game regardless of loyalty or honesty, how can you blame them? It's the type of game that requires to be merciless, cutthroats, conniving, manipulative, etc... So, I can't see why they have to show that they were indeed honest, civil, etc.. etc... They should just stick to their belief that it was the only chance for them to win the game... no use showing yourself in a better light... one has to play dirty in this game. The only thing I cannot justify is the badmouthing, and those who just can't stop doing it even when it's no longer necessary.. |
Dram | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:26 pm     Was there anything that you said about me during the game that I will find shocking, surprising or be hurt by? |
Spunky | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:29 pm     Dram, do you mean that you're asking them to reveal themselves.. to hear them saying :yes, I talked bad about you during the game??" Mmm, that's really putting them on the spot, that's great... I'd love to hear what they answer... |
Gvandeli | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:29 pm     Here are some questions I would ask: Do you regret anything you did in this game? Did you ever say anything behind a HG's back that you didn't say to their face? Do you feel you played this game with integrity and explain why. What was the first promise you broke? Why did you feel the need to continually bash departed houseguests? What part of your strategy was that? I would want to try to make them both squirm, I guess. |
Amari | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:31 pm     I don't blame any of them for how they play the game. It is for a half million dollars after all so whatever works is o.k. by me. My thinking about asking strategy related questions was that if I were on the jury, I would be more impressed by someone who could lay out for me that they had a well thought out strategy, what they did to make that stategy work, etc. I would award 1st place to the one who convinced me they played the game best. I know that's subjective because there is an element of luck involved but I still think their answers to those kinds of questions would help me decide. I really don't care about who called who what. |
Gvandeli | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:32 pm     Amari-For me the answers would speak to their integrity and willingness to say, "Yeah, I lied and I said nasty things behind your back and here's why I did it." |
Maris | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:36 pm     My questions to each player would be: 1. Without telling me about how your opponent played a great game, ya de ya de ya da, tell me the most important reason why your opponent should not get the half a million. Then tell me a separate reason of why you should get half a million dollars. 2. Tell me one lie that your opponent told me that I am not aware of. Tell me one lie that you told me. 3. Tell me the biggest lie you told in the house and what is the bigest lie your opponent told in the house. 4. What was the worst game playing move in the big brother house? What was the best game playing move in the big brother house. |
Gvandeli | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:37 pm     Good questions, Maris....I see the tears rolling down Ali's cheeks already! |
Spunky | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:38 pm     Yeah, the funny thing is that they would be "lying" again if they said "yes, I played with integrity". So, how can they deny that they did all those bad things to win... They have to pretty much admit that they were indeed backstabbers, etc.. Interesting... |
Gvandeli | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:39 pm     Spunky-- Exactly...if I were an evicted house guest, I would be looking for my "pound of flesh", even though I knew I'd have to give one of them the half mil. |
Amari | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 05:46 pm     I guess I just don't see what good it would do to go after a "pound of flesh." Why come off looking like sour grapes? One is going to win $500,000 and one is going to win $50,000 - no getting around it. If the behavior of the F2 hasn't already convinced everybody who watches it (as well as the evicted HG's) just what kind of people they are, would calling them out on their sins change anything? Not to mention the fact that I can't see Jun or Ali much caring with big bucks in hand. If I were on the jury, I'd try to rise above all that if only not to stoop to that level. JMHO |
Spunky | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 06:22 pm     Very noble, Amari and you and I and so many others here would think so. However, this group of people have shown us they have no scruples and would take their last chance on a tv show to go after a "pound of flesh", some will do it because they do feel a great deal of animosity, imagine Dana, and want to make them squirm one last time... |
K9lover1 | Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 07:24 pm     I would ask "Ali, your strategy was to turn your lie and deceive, some of your opponents did not choose to deceive but stayed true to their alliances and did everything in their power to keep their promises. In light of this, do you feel that disloyalty should be rewarded? |
Spear | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 12:54 am     At this point, I'd be inclined to give my vote to the winner of the last HOH, so my question would be to see if they could change my mind: If Ali wins HOH: Jun, how do you counter the argument that Ali is the better player because she won the most critical competitions? If Jun wins HOH: Ali, how did you ensure that Jun would take you to the final two? |
Indigospy | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 03:33 am     Whatever questions could possibly be asked of these two women, neither are worthy of having anyone believe a word they offer in response. Quite simply, Alison has a tendency towards a narcissistic personality disorder. Any positive, or negative comment for that matter, she will accept as manna from heaven that she is all she thinks she is. The "positive" reinforces what she already believes to be true; the "negative" reinforces her belief that she is a strength and force to be reckoned with. I can hear her thoughts now: "People fear me; and that must be a good thing." I think Jun is the lesser of the two evils. I would ask no questions, just offer the vote, tell her thanks for the cooking, leave her a 500G tip and walk out the door. Of course, these are only my opinions. I wanted Dr. Evil back again this year. He's still got my vote. Shows what I know, hunh? |
Jbean | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 03:58 am     k9, that is a GREAT question. she would feel the answer is yes, though. she can slant anything in her direction. JMHO |
Pengoh | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 06:18 am     a little different from what someone said before: Ali: Tell me why Jun deserves to win over you Jun: Tell me why Ali deserves to win over you |
Jolly_Penguin | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 07:37 am     To Ali & Jun: I don't like either of you, and I'm only here voting because if I didn't Big Brother would take away my stipend. To Ali: Pick a number from one to ten To Jun: Pick a number from one to ten |
