Waiting on Trivia - Evening, Part 2

I'm opening a new post, so people wont have trouble finding their comments... There are over 200 in the original post already... They're there, but finding them can be a pain in the tush.

The feeds went back to Trivia at 5:48pm BBT. We're in it to win it, folks.

10:05pm BBT
Feeds Are back!!!



Trivia Waiting Activity #8
: Name the HGs Celebrity Look Alikes.

Trivia Waiting Activity #9: This one comes from Smartest Cookie...
If you could make up another kind of power (hoh, veto) in the BB House, what would it be?

  6. I've been trying to figure the celeb look alike thing from the beginning of the season and the only ones I can think of are Sheila reminds me of Jodie Foster a little bit, and Amanda reminds me of janelle except she's not as pretty as Janelle of course, but they have similar facial features

  25. I am really piZZed we don't have feeds for this comp.

    Have you even thought of the possibility that they will keep us in the dark until tomorrow night and at the end of the show show this evening's comp on the feeds... and even on Showtime? That way, they could tell people to get the 24/7 to watch the endurance play out...

    It won't make a difference to us since we may not know the outcome. They have tonight's AD covered and why not do like in previous seasons... block us out for 24 hours. OY? What say you?

  29. As I have said since episode 1, Adam is Christopher Walker. A less hot Chris Walken, if that is possibl.e

    Sheila is a very poor man's Susan Sarandon.

    Sharon is Pink Floyd (the lack of eyebrows)

    Ryan looks like the passed out guy on the frat couch.

    Carolyn- In response to your projection that it would not make economic sense to black out the endurance comp on the feeds, aren't they free the last two weeks? I thik it sort of defeats a large purpose of the competition, but I also think there is no way they are spoiling an eviction on the live feeds. The whole thing seems kind of stupid.

    And it makes me realize that I made time in my life to follow this shiz, and now there is a void and i forget what I was doing previously.Nothing positive I am sure.

    So are you staying up all night on the chance the feeds come back?

    That is recockulous. Wouldn't the point of blocking the comp (comp blocking?) be to keep the outcome a secret til its aired? But they will unblock the feeds AFTER the comp? Is it me or is that totally illogical?

  45. Adam looks like Gary Busey...teeth and crazy eyes...but a sweetheart.

    Sheila does have some similar traits with Jodi Foster, but i think if you morphed Susan Lucci (the soap chick) and Jodi Foster you would end up with Sheila.

    Sharon is so plain,,she just reminds me of an extra that no one ever really notices.

    And Ryan,,,someone that dies early on in a horror movie or an extra jock in a football scene.

    I hope it's Adam and Sheila in the end,,,they were being gunned for from the beginning and everyone always saw them as expendable but never quite got around to it, they have managed to manipulate others and stay in the game, they deserve it.

    If I could make up a power... hmmm. I got 2.

    1. Power to MUTE - The winner has the ability to select a HG that is not allowed to speak until the next eviction ceremony.

    2. Power of TRUTH - for 24hrs, the winner can demand the truth of various HG vs HG claims and be shown the relevant feeds.

    The first would possible hinder an HG's ability to talk themselves out of a corner again. The second would really flush out the facts, but only if the winner asks the right questions!!

    What is their logic?? Even without the showing of comps & ceremonies we can figure out what happened. How stupid do they think we are??

    I only watch the feeds for the endurance comps... or when Carolyn warns us of something (like the calling out of Nat) the rest I get from BBDish without having to watch all the crap.

  98. Carolyn, Thanks...

    Makes sense that they can't do it last... :-(

    ReplyDelete
  99. I have to think they are going to keep this blacked out til after the outcome is aired on BB California time. Tuesday show would be POV Ceremony and Eviction and beginning of enduranee xomp right? Then Wednesdayw ould e endo of endurane comp and the other two. So that would mean no live feeds til after the conclusion of the Wednesday California show.

    Unless Grodner and company feel the OUTRAGE and DEVASTATION of the BB community and somehow squeeze endurance comp ending into the Tuesday show. Nah, they will still be a comp down. I have to think no feeds til end of west coast Wednesday show.

    Carolyn, go take a quick "weekend" getaway to the keys or something. CBS must have meant that the feeds are coming back after the endurance comp airs (and what about the comps?) No room for ambiguity with the folks, like Roy.

    Let's see, it's been over three hours of trivia so it can't be too much longer right? LOL says I. As far as I know the longest comp was something like 6 hours. I'm too brain dead to try and remember specifics.

    I'm sticking to the feeds because I want to see who stayed and who went and who won and I'm the type who wants to know immediately.

  110. Oh, I wanna play the new trivia waiting game, cause this is actually a power that I've always thought should come into play. The power to talk for 1 minute to a randomly drawn viewer and get their advice on who to trust in the game, etc. It's tricky cause if they get someone that hates them, that person could feed them false information, or it could be really good if they get someone that is a fan. So it's a power that could either be good for them or bad, and it's up to them to figure it out.

Even if live feed viewers know and wojuld watch anyway, they might tell their TV only friends who might then skip it.

    That kinda deal.

    I know this is a tad off-topic, but here's a few of my ideas about how BB could be improved:

    #1) Have more involvement from the fans-kind of like BB8 except no America's player-just give America choices each week about what happens to the houseguests/stipulations etc.

    #2) Also give America a vote each week for who gets evicted, as well as a jury vote (they would have to add 1 more person to sequester of course to keep the votes an odd number)

    #3) no more backdooring-from the beginning to end of the season, let EVERYONE play for POV.

    #4) let the outgoing HOH compete in the next HOH. If the other houseguests can't beat that 1 person, too bad...

    I really like the ideas of "Power of slop" and "Power of silence" from julissa and cheers from montreal.

    How about "Power of immunity" for a houseguest who doesn't win HOH in particular week? This would guarantee him/her safety from being nominated for that week by the HOH.

    ReplyDelete
  127. How about Power of Isolation: The winner gets to isolate a houseguest of their choosing from the rest of the house for a 24 hour period. That way the chosen person cannot scheme, and has no idea what's going on in the house during that time.

  128. This totally sucks .I watch the feeds so we see the entire comp, not the measely clips we see on the shows. And why do I want to pay for Showtime for the morning crap they're showing now that I already SAW!!!! Like people say its not like we aren't going to be able to figure out what happened why deprive us of the entire endurance, they are the best parts of BB. I mean what are we going to see 3 minutes of what lasted several hours. This really BITES!!!

  138. Not good news for those of us who are waiting for the feeds to come back....

    The longest BB endurance competition was on BB6 called the "Pressure Cooker" -HG had to stand and press a button. It lasted 14 hours and all competing lasted at least six hours. According to Wikipedia... I recall sitting at work the next day watching the drama unfold.

    I am not sure I can hold on that long....I am vexed about the lack of comp on the feeds... wondering why bother paying for the feeds? I love the endurance comps!!! So vexed!!!

    ReplyDelete
  139. Just a thought here... As I said before Adam made the comment that he could/would last at least 3 hours. Speculating that they are taping someone's exit for tomorrow night, they would not begin the comp until just before 7BBT so 3 hours would be around 10BBT. Hopefully, the feeds will be back around that time? I Hope!

  142. I can't decide. Do I stay up for another 2 or 3 hours waiting, or do I set my alarm to wake me up in three hours to check the feeds? Adam hasn't lasted two shakes on an endurance. Ryan lasted about three hours but I don't think he could have made it much longer. Sharon did fairly well in the disco ball one, but I think she dropped on purpose for that one, and Sheila made it over three hours for the glass house and I think she could have gone longer. So my prediction is which ever of the girls got to stay is winning the comp and the boys are hanging on for dear life.

    I suggest they turn the spa room into a padded cell and when someone goes nuts ala Josh they have to go in there for a certain amount of time. I'll call it the "Time Out Room". Inside will be all kinds of things to take out and vent your frustrations, but all completely safe. Like the blow up clown you can beat senseless (if you can beat a blow up clown senseless). Lots of pillows and things you can throw, some kind of "safe" bat to beat things up. Oh ... I just had a grand idea ... put a picture of each HG on one of those beat up clowns and go to town on your HG enemy!

    How about this one? Something similar to the mute suggestion mixed with the idea of the slop pass. The STFU card ... play it on the most annoying HG and they have to keep quite for 24 hours or they're automatically evicted.

    I'm still wishing they'd do something like the Diamond PoV... you win the veto, take off yourself or your choice from the block and pick the replacement even the HoH ... now that would be interesting. I'll call this idea the Black Pearl PoV.

    My last idea / suggestion is no more bibles or religious literature in the BB House! None, zip, nada. Read the cereal and food containers like the rest of the evil doers!

    Carolyn... looks like you're going to have to do a part 3.

    ReplyDelete
  153. nightchild ~ I always thought about that!

    (This would most likely happen once or twice a season) After a HG is evicted, the house chooses one HG that would be isolated in a cage in the backyard till next HOH comp. They would be immune from being evicted, but they would not be involved in the week's gameplay. Slop and water are the only thing that can sustain them. The cage will be soundproof, so they are TRULY alone. The HG's can choose throughout the week to put the HG in the cage through different hardships (stinky cage, no light, no bed, loud alarm goes off every half hour, cage is covered so they can not see what is going outside of the cage, etc.) or rewards (time allowed out of the cage, comfy bed, pictures/letter from home, good food, cage can allow people to interact with secluded HG, etc.). Every time they give the HG a hardship, BB will, unknowing to the HGs, give the secluded HG a help on the upcoming HoH comp.

    I put a lot of thought into this, lol.

  156. Carolyn,
    I just got back to the computer to check in and found your post about the feeds. I am thrilled. I was just thinking how if the feeds were blocked until tomorrow's show, we would miss out on all the conversation surrounding the outcome of the veto ceremony. If Sheila did stay, I want to see shat she says to Adam - if they are able to talk without Ryan around, that is. I would like to finally know what Adam is REALLY thinking and what he is REALLY up to as far as final 2 is concerned!
    By the way the guys were talking before the trivia went up, it sounds like the length of the competition could depend solely on how long the remaining lady lasts...

    ReplyDelete
  157. I too am totally peeved but showtime being pre-taped and the blackout on the live feeds, knowing before the shows and seeing the whole competions are what we pay good money for right?

    I was thinking though instead of awarding the 500g to one of the remaining house guests, I think it should go to the guineas and whoever takes care of them after the show. I mean those two animals have had to be stuck in that house for three months, listen to all the bitching, whining, moaning, backstabbing, bullying.... and not even get to compete in any competition. If they give the money to who really "deserves" it I would votes for those two poor guineas!!!

    The Power of Reverse...you win a special contest...much like a luxury competition. Once you win the Power of Reverse...you can then reverse everything that happens in the house for the next week. So if you are last in the HOH competition...you can use the Power of Reverse and become the HOH. Your ally is evicted by a score of 4-2 say...reverse that vote and your enemy is voted out instead. It would make everyone have to be very careful about everything they do for that week...because you ultimately have the power to Reverse every decision everyone makes.

    Gretchen gave the results of the poll taken last week, whether or not people want to discuss BB after watching CBS broadcast on TV or live feeds. A whopping 86% voted live feed discussion!!

    I think this may have something to do with why they blacked out the comp this year. Doesn't look like watching BB on CBS TV is as popular as watching blogs and live feeds. I even find BBAD boring now that I have live feed. I get the same at 9pm on live feeds in Arizona than waiting up til midnight for BBAD. I get better stuff watching live feed at midnight.

    Bet Grodener made the blackout decision after hearing the results of the poll.
