While we don’t have time for another season of BBE before Big Brother 11 starts and my focus becomes Big Brother Craze, I had an idea of what should come next. The viewer’s are all for it, so it’s time to let you players in on the plan.

The forums are still open - including a section dedicated to Big Brother 11 – you’ll be able talk shit about the BB Houseguests anytime you want, and generally dish about the season while keeping up with all the goods at Big Brother Craze. Even BETTER though is this….

We’re going to run a BBE Pool Party!

Here’s how it will work:

– I’ll post a signup thread, and we’ll have as many pools as we need to make sure everyone gets a shot. You can even sign up for more than one, as long as you are committed to seeing it through, and willing to pony up your part of the prize.

– Once the houseguests are announced, we will assign each member of the pool (or pools) a houseguest via Random.org to cheer and/or jeer for. You can chatter and discuss and tear apart your houseguests strategy, attitude and/or hygiene all you like.

– If your houseguest wins Big Brother 11, then each member of your pool commits to sending $10-$20 USD to the winner in the form of Amazon gift cards, or some other form of gift card if the winner prefers somewhere else. Let’s say there’s 13 houseguests again, at $10 a person, that’s $120 of new books or something for the winner! Definitely nothing to sneeze at, and it isn’t too difficult an amount to come up with.

– We all have fun!

We look forward to a GREAT Big Brother 11 Season!

As is traditional, the Final HOH would be played in three parts, the first of which was endurance. It was Kyle vs. Mike and Jaym. Who would pull it out in the end?

When it came time for Part One, Kyle ended up with a Real Life Commitment, and didn’t show. However, speaking of shows, Jaym and Mike decided to put on one, and kept the contest going for 5.5 hours, before they agreed that Mikey should win part one, as Jaym had a better chance against Kyle in a puzzle Part Two. She “dropped” and Mikey advanced to part three.

Part Two was a puzzle I felt SURE I had made more difficult than ever, and there would be no 7 minute solving it THIS time! It was a Color Step Sequence Maze, and I had solved it in a mere 54 moves.

…..they solved it in 36.
Bitches.

But it DID take them almost an hour – so THAT made me happy. Who won? Jaym, by barely beating out Kyle by 9 minutes to get her solution in first. Kyle was thus out of the running for the final HOH, and Jaym and Mikey would battle it out in a contest that effectively meant nothing, as we all knew they’d take each other.

In a blindingly fast “finish the statement” contest pulled from a Jury Questionaire, Jaym toppled Mikey off the hill and became the final and most powerful HOH! She promptly evicted Kyle, sending him to the jury house where they began to put together their questions to decide on the winner of BBE. The power was now in the hands of the Jury.

They asked some tough – and some confusing – and some hysterical – questions, which were answered quickly by Jaym and Mike. They debated, and while most felt that Jaym played a more competitive game, they seemed more upset that Jaym and Mike stumbled over themselves trying to prove the other person more worthy of the grand prize by being uber nice. Not saying they should have thrown each other under the bus, but a little fight would have been fun!

In the end – JAYM was voted the winner of Big Brother Experience: Season 1 by a 6-0 vote. (Jaym’s self-proclaimed biggest fan didn’t bother to vote. As it wouldn’t have changed anything, we simply ignored it.)

Congrats Jaym – you certainly fought you way through it! 4 POVs in a row, and 2 HOHs – she was the BBE Competition Queen!

Now, all the houseguests have been let out into the forums, to learn all the things they didn’t know, thought they knew, what we knew and said. Feel free to pop into the forums and check it out, and congratulate Mikey and Jaym for a game well played!

So that’s what’s coming up from Big Brother Craze, Reality Daze, and The Big Brother Experience! We look forward to a GREAT Big Brother 11 Season!

When we left the BBE houseguests, it was time for the Week 8 HOH. Dru was ineligible to play, which left Kyle, Jaym and Mikey to fight it out. The object of the game was simple – correctly guess who said the given statement – all of which were said by their fellow houseguests in either Diary Room sessions or Private Messaging. None of the statements would affect the end game in any way.

In the end, it was proven that none of them knew their fellow houseguests very well, as Kyle became the Week 8 HOH with a score of THREE – out of a possible 15. Tsk! Of course, it’s a possibility that Jaym threw it, as she got both of Jake’s wrong. Who knows though…

Anyway – that left Kyle with a tricky decision – which of his allies to put up against Dru, who was obviously their target for the week. Jaym threw herself at the block, saying it’d make her fight harder for POV, and Kyle agreed, and put Jaym and Dru up for Eviction.

During the POV, the houseguests were asked to complete the puzzle BBE DNA. I had spent over an hour on it and…. Jaym solved it in 7 minutes. OY! I would best her yet, if it KILLED ME. (and it might!) Be that as it may, it mean Jaym was the winner of POV, and naturally saved herself, which put Mikey up against Dru for eviction.

Jaym, being the only vote, obviously voted to evict Dru, sending a bitter Brit to the Jury.

It was time for the Final three… Who would win the most important HOH of the season?

Stay tuned!

Week 7 – it was time for a Fast Forward! Just like the real deal, we played a whole week in one night, starting with the Week 7 HOH, which was called Grid Effect Extreme!

Each of the houseguests busted out a path, but as always, some of them refused to read the directions, which lead to Dru dropping out instantly – as he missed the part about needing 25 squares. Whoops. Kyle was quick on the draw too, and did well, for a final score of 20 due to tripping a couple lightening bolts. John mocked Dru’s lack of directions, and eliminated himself by only using 23 steps – and Mikey went diagonal. Which left Jaym – who managed to come in with a score of 23 after only hitting one lightening bolt! Where was Florian? Good question. No one knew.

Jaym wasted no time in hopping into the chat with the rest of the houseguests and nominating John and Florian for eviction. Then it was time for the POV.

This POV was called “Someone HAD to be first” and encompassed a variety of Reality TV shows – the houseguests had to name who was the first to be eliminated from each show in order to get a point. It came down to a tie between Jaym and John, with Jaym winning the tie-breaker question. Jaym won POV – and of course, kept her nominations the same. The houseguests immediately had to vote, and John was eliminated from the Big Brother Experience – ultimately screwed because he looked at the wrong season of Flavor of Love. Nothings worse then being screwed by Flav-a-Flav!

The it was time for HOH number two, and what an awesome competition it was! It was the Big Brother Who-Dun-It! One of the houseguests murdered our very own Peppermist, and it was up to them to solve the clues and figure out who-dun-it! Shockingly, Dru was fastest on the clue and puzzle solving, and came out victorious!

It was down to two main alliances – Florian and Dru, against Jaym, Mike and Kyle. Dru went for the obvious choice, and nominated Kyle and Mike for eviction.

When it came to POV, it was something simple – name that houseguest! There were 50 houseguests, and they had to name them, and get extra credit for naming the winners. Fastest correct answer won – and again Jaym came up victorious, though it was certainly close! She chose to use the POV on Mikey, which forced Dru to nominate his best bud and ally, Florian.

Dru was not happy. We knew, because he quit talking.

Behind the scenes, though, he and Florian were working their magic to try and save Florian. Flo claimed he had a PM from Kyle that would make Mikey/Jaym vote him out – then he produced a screenshot of said PM… only one problem. That PM did NOT EXIST! It sent Jaym and Mike into a panic though, as they suddenly weren’t sure they could trust Kyle. Then Kyle pointed out the flaws in the Faux PM, and order was restored – an order that promptly saw Florian evicted from the Big Brother Experience.

Which brings us to Week 8, and yet another HOH competition for the Final Four. It was 3 against one…. Who came out on top?

Stay tuned!

Wow. Week six. Who knew it could go so fast? Would there be any more melt downs this week? Time would tell.

When we last left our houseguests, Florian had just become the first double HOH winner of B B E. In a move that was not entirely shocking, he nominated Jaym and Kyle for eviction, though rumor had it he had a plan and Jaym was just there for show.

Meanwhile, in the final Food competition for the seasons, Jamie correctly found and described several deadly foods, and in a shocking turn, decided to be nice and let the house “Feast” and have private messages, rather then take them all away but for herself and Florian as HOH in a “Famine”

It wasn’t enough to save her though, as Jaym won my favorite contest of the season, the Great God of Otev competition. It’s all about taking notes and counting days, ya’ll! She wiped the floor with her competition, and then used the P O V to save herself. Florian then nominated Jamie as the replacement, and his plan became abundantly clear. She was his target all along.

At the eviction, a contest was announced to get the houseguests publicly active. As Jamie walked out the door with a vote of 3 to 1, a post count war erupted. Jaym and Dru once again didn’t read the directions, and thought the competition was for 24 hours – not a full week.

Oh. The insanity.
Oh. The FLURRY of posts.
Oh. The reading!

They surely took the contest to heart. THEN realized it was for a week, 300 posts later.

Stay tuned for more!

I know I’m behind in our chenbot recaps – I’ll try to get those finished and up this weekend! As always, you can join the forums and catch up on all the happenings there!

So – we are in the home stretch of the first Big Brother Experience Season, and I want to take this time to personally thank you ALL for making it a success! We have a small core group that stuck through all the shit in order to have a fantastic season, both for the players and viewers. I appreciate the maturity – and the dignified immaturity at times! – and sense of fun that made the Big Brother Experience a relaxed and welcoming place to be!

That brings us to the most important question – what NOW? It’s almost over, so what NOW? I have an answer for you.

While we don’t have time for another season of BBE before Big Brother 11 starts and my focus becomes Big Brother Craze, I had an idea of what should come next. The viewer’s are all for it, so it’s time to let you players in on the plan.

After the Finale, I will open a section of the forums dedicated to Big Brother 11 – you’ll be able talk shit about the BB Houseguests anytime you want, and generally dish about the season while keeping up with all the goods at Big Brother Craze. Even BETTER though is this….

We’re going to run a BBE Pool Party!

Here’s how it will work:

– I’ll post a signup thread, and we’ll have as many pools as we need to make sure everyone gets a shot. You can even sign up for more than one, as long as you are committed to seeing it through, and willing to pony up your part of the prize.

– Once the houseguests are announced, we will assign each member of the pool (or pools) a houseguest via Random.org to cheer and/or jeer for. You can chatter and discuss and tear apart your houseguests strategy, attitude and/or hygiene all you like.

– If your houseguest wins Big Brother 11, then each member of your pool commits to sending $10-$20 USD to the winner in the form of Amazon gift cards, or some other form of gift card if the winner prefers somewhere else. Let’s say there’s 13 houseguests again, at $10 a person, that’s $120 of new books or something for the winner! Definitely nothing to sneeze at, and it isn’t too difficult an amount to come up with.

– We all have fun!

So that’s what’s coming up from Big Brother Craze, Reality Daze, and The Big Brother Experience! We look forward to a GREAT Big Brother 11 Season!
