Results Of Task 6a, or "If you don't know me by now . . ."

Okay, we have all the answers in, and we can see to what extent you can all finish each other's sentences after 6 weeks of being sealed up together.

For any onlookers who are . . . onlooking, the housemates answered two identical sets of 12 questions, first giving the answers that were true for them, and then guessing what a fellow housemate's answers would be. The goal was to be as "psychic" as possible, and prove that you can now read your fellow BB participants' minds.

Although they didn't know it, housemates were put in pairs who answered questions about each other. The assignments were random, but I think we can all see who ought to be picking out wedding china here.

The pairings:

Souderwan <----> Everton
JR <----> JTS
ASG <----> GIMER

I have percentages correct listed below--I'll post people's actual answers afterward. I figured you'd be happier if I just cut to the chase first.

Immune

1st place: Souderwan--9 out of 12 questions right
Tied for 2nd: Everton--8 out of 12 questions right
Tied for 2nd: JR--8 out of 12 questions right

In Grave Peril

Tied for 3rd: GIMER--5 out of 12 questions right
Tied for 3rd: JTS--5 out of 12 questions right
4th place: ASG--4 out of 12 questions right

Originally, only two people were supposed to have immunity, but JR and Everton went and messed that up. > So, we've got three on the potential eviction list. Of those three, the two with the most votes will be, um . . . "released."

"Real" answers vs. "Guess" answers forthcoming.

Incidentally, I gave people the benefit of the doubt when it wasn't clear if their answers matched their "partner's" answers. If more than one answer was given, I went with the first one, or clarified via PM. I also considered "none of the above" answers as matches for other "none of the above" answers, even if the off-the-wall responses didn't correspond. At least the guesser knew that his/her housemate would reject both options in an either/or choice.

Edit: Please save complaints until I've posted everyone's answers. That way we can leave the "answer" part uncluttered.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT . . .
Everton?!!

Everton's actual answers

1) What is your favorite color?
- Blue. (although honestly, whoever gets me in this task won't have any difficulty answering that!)

2) Lightsaber or blaster?
- Lightsaber.

3) At midnight board time, what time is it where you live?
- 8am.

4) Which BB eviction shocked you the most?
- Dani, because I reckoned her 'e-following' would probably see her through no matter how little interest she took in the game. I think she thought that too.

5) What was the highlight of being locked up in here?
- The increased potential for running jokes. They give me wonderful giggles. With less people, and generally better attuned people, with you on a forum, you can have more fun. Nobody wants to glean their fun by ruining fun for others (except d_b, but he went out as soon as he strained his welcome).

6) What was the lowlight?
- Having to put up with darth_boy's ever more frantic attempts to draw attention to himself and cause friction in a forum with only a fraction of the easy targets he's used to.

7) Do you like sand?
- On the whole, no. I get paranoid about getting sand in my shoes. And yeah, I know, I shouldn't wear shoes on the beach... but I do, because I also worry about getting sand out from between my toes.

8) Do you secretly watch kiddie movies when no children are around?
- Yes.

9) Dead mammoths or spicy camel?
- spicy camel

10) Your living space: neat as a pin or OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT THING?!!
- Truthfully, I occupy the middle ground, however for the purposes of this question I'd probably go with neat.

11) What do you do for a living?
- Publisher.

12) Demand, not demand, or GOOD GOD THAT JOKE IS SO FREAKIN' OLD GET OVER IT ALREADY GET OVER IIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!
- Demand.

Okay . . . looks like that's everybody. Feel free to complain now.

Also, since I've been unsuccessful in getting input from Pulsies on the matter, I'm making an executive decision. It's fine by me if people want to use colors for the last few days in the house.

You made it to the final week. You've been locked up close to a month and a half. We've got 2 elimination rounds and a final vote to do in just a few days, so it's a bit silly to have people turning colors on, then off. Then on, then off.

So just use 'em if you want 'em.

I'll be posting the info in this thread over in YJCC momentarily, and we'll have 24 hours for them to vote on who they want back most.

After that, we start all over with Task 6b.

--Big Sissy

I'd count Juli's question 11 right.

My job is to keep people happy.
I don't always succeed though.


So, Juli, did you think I was in Alaska or Hawaii?

I would like to apologize to Chris. He gave Question 8 more thought that I did and he seems to know me better than I know myself. In point of fact, I have, on just about every occasion I've had to watch a kiddie movie by myself, waited for my son so that we can watch it together. It only changes things a little in that it means that Chris got as many answers right about me as I got about him.

That's all. Now speaking of my son, I'm off to watch him go up a belt in karate! See you all later!
