Big Brother 15

The problem with fan vote is that everyone just elects the favorite. I'm sure more than once next season the "real" MVP will be eclipsed by the next Jeff or Boogie.
 
Guess what!?

My sister is in it!

Unforunately, no. She found out that she couldn't do it due to having three jobs over the summer, so next year, we can only hope.

You're kidding, right?
No.

We can only hope she won't be as you know,

annoying as Rachel was, but hey, maybe I've found someone I'll love to hate.

And is it just me, or does the cast (from first impressions anyway, hopefully that'll change) seem kinda boring this year?

why do you need to spoiler this, everyone knows it.
In case people want to not know the cast yet! And now you're just giving them hints.

Even though I'm not sure if any of us don't know the cast already. :P
 
I know their names and some of their biographies, but haven't gotten around to watching the whole preview yet.
 
And is it just me, or does Spencer remind you of Adam, like a lot. I just see him playing just like Adam..... Hopefully not, Adam was just terrible.

Adam was cool.

I think that the cast are a bit...ugly.

Like, this is actually one of the youngest casts since Big Brother 8, all between 21-31, and yet, some people (coughcaitlyncoughElissacough) look like they are so much older, and not really pretty.

No offense to any of them, but it's going to be a bit hard to stare at them all summer on tv and deal with their faces, because many of their faces look weird.

EDIT - I meant in general though.

There are definitely like 4 or 5 people that I don't mind, and are REALLY pretty.

Adam was not cool at all. He was the worst player in BB13. And Shelly was just terrible too. 13 just has to be the worst season I've seen, anyway.

And yeah, the cast does seem rather "ugly" :P

And I think GinaMarie (or whatever she was called) is going to get SO annoying.

I'm not saying he's perfect, but I can think of about six or seven players from that season that sucked even more than he did.

Six or Seven, is like the whole newbie cast.

Which I mean, they were already at a huge disadvantage, but it seemed that at least the rest were trying to stick together and form alliances and stuff, but Adam, Shelly and Porsche were just terrible floaters.
 
Tomorrow's the premiere!

Favorite Houseguests from a glance is Aaryn and Nick. I hope they make it very far in the game.

Aaryn is such a nice girl, and Nick is a funny, kind of relaxed guy. They are both single, and I think that there'll be a showmance between them. Aaryn doesn't even care about the money, she just wants to be apart of the BB family, and wants the experience. :)

Actually my list was going to be Rachel, Brendon, Jeff, Dick, Lawon, Porsche, and Keith, but whatever floats your boat.

You can't even count Keith and Dick they were out right away.

And in what way did Rachel play a bad game? SHE FREAKING WON.

And Lawon, at least he was kinda funny. :P

...that was the entire point?

New Super Mario said:

Luigi won by doing absolutely nothing in Mario Party 2. Rachel used pretty much the same strategy late in the game. Porsche was derping, Danielle and Jeff cancelled each other out, Kalia's a horrible strategist, neither Adam and Jordan could win a challenge to save their lives... there was really no one else left who could win.

And either way, she's fucking annoying

I could say the same thing about Adam, IMO. Humor is subjective.

I suppose, but I only found Adam to be annoying and obnoxious.

But I guess we can still agree that Season 13 wasn't very good.....

I like Helen. I don't know why she just looks funny or something. I'm not going to really say who I like thought until the first episode is done with.

And we should all play Big Brother Fantasy this year (us three). Not sure if you guys have heard of it, but I've always wanted to try it out.

There's a couple of ways you can play it, but the way I would play it is each week we divide the houseguests into three equal groups (you know, we each get a group) and you get points depending on what they do during the weeks. Each week we will switch up the groups (which would probably easiest to just do in a "Save a Character"/"Hurt and Heal" kind of way to determine what houseguests you get for that week (so like a draft). If there are an uneven amount of houseguests, we just round down to the next equally divided number (Example, 13 houseguests, we go down to 12 and everyone gets 4 houseguests with one houseguest getting nobody).

I found a yahoo answer with ways you can get points. (I edited the points to make it more, balanced, at least in my opinion) They would include:

Gaining points:
Your Team wins HOH: 20 points
Team wins POV: 20 points
Team uses POV: 15 points
Member gets involved in a new Showmance/Alliance: 15
Cries: 5 points per cry.
Member gets into a physical or verbal fight: 10 points
Player gets into hot tub or pool: 5 points
Julie says a player's name: 1 point
Player swears: 1 point per swear
Player works out: 2 points

Losing points:
Evicted: Lose 20 points if your player is evicted
Player nominated (or backdoored from veto): Lose 5 points
Injury: Lose 5 points is a player is injured
Smokes: Lose 1 point if a player smokes

This would begin after one week has passed in the house. (since it isn't really fair to start this when we don't know anything). New houseguests would be picked after the eviction and will be used for the next week until the next eviction and the cycle repeats.
 
I like the idea, but the "New Showmance" bonus should be changed to just a general-purpose "New Alliance" bonus.

Alright, I'll put Showmance/Alliance.

And I'll probably tally up points on the computer after each episode for each player and add them to people's totals. It might be helpful if we all do it so we don't screw someone over :P
 
Actually, it might be better if we just all do out own (presuming we can trust each other we won't cheat), so you can just skip around to your people and not waste 45 minutes watching the whole thing.
 
Well Episode 1 is done. Honestly, not sure if this will be a great season. We'll see.

But there are so many people I hate!

Here are my thoughts on the houseguests.

Elissa: Even if she's Rachel's sister she hasn't done anything to annoy me yet. I give her an OK.

Aaryn: She seems pretty cool, and I think I'll like her. So for now, Like.

Andy: His voice is just so annoying. I don't think I can stand listening to it. Of course, he doesn't have the MOST annoying voice. Dislike.

David: HE IS TERRIBLE! Now his voice is just so so so annoying with the whole bro, likes, dude, whatever surfer person. It's just... Ugh. I can't stand him. I don't think I will ever like him. VERY VERY DISLIKE.

GinaMarie: She is so obnoxious and loud and annoying. Doesn't help with that accent. Dislike.

Jeremy: What is this stupid kid doing aligning just minutes in the house! I don't know that just seems kinda stupid (but people have done it on other seasons so we'll see). I hate how he's talking about "Cherokee calls" and stuff like that. While I don't dislike him that much, I consider him borderline on dislike and ok. So yeah, Dislike/OK.

Howard: I don't know why really, but I like Howard. Like.

Helen: She seems nice, but hasn't really done anything. OK/Like.

Nick: He's probably the best Male in the house. And one of the only ones I actually like. Probably one of my favorites so far. Like.

Amanda: She hasn't done anything really. OK.

Spencer: He doesn't seem to know what he's doing. But whatever. OK.

Jessie: She seems nice and stuff but I don't know why she's freaking out with the girls already. OK.

Kailtin: They hardly even showed her. Until I see more, OK.

Judd: Another annoying person. His voice is just really bad in terms of Southern accents. I feel like he'll be like Joe too for some reason. Dislike.

Candice: She seems pretty cool, I guess. OK/Like.

McCrae: Not as annoying as I thought (actually better than a lot of the people) but still kinda boring. OK. And lol, people not believing that he was a pizza delivery boy.

Anyway, I'll probably update these later in the season, maybe like Week 4 or 5.

Toad Eightyfive said:
OH MY GAAHD THESE PEOPLE ARE SO ANNOYING.
Yes seriously. See my stuff above.
 
Aaryn is awesome. I completely love her because she is one of those really nice girls that will play the game, and she has showed she's not some fragile little stereotypical texas blonde. Love

Amanda is kind of just...there right now. We haven't seen much of her exception for some tibbits. So...N/A

Andy is...annoying. He definitely seems like one of those people that are going to bug me all season, though I think at some point I'll be okay with him. Slight Dislike

Candice is another one like Amanda that we haven't seen enough of. I often forget she's in the house when I was watching the show. So...N/A

David is one of those surfer dude people that are just completely only worried about girls and looks, and acts completely brainless about other stuff. Dislike

Elissa seems like she will be better than Rachel right now, and seems to really want to have that stigma off of her. Slight Like

GinaMarie is definitely going to be the one that annoys people and is definitely going to outdo her outgoing-ness, but I really don't hate her. I actually kind of like the bubbly-ness, and I think that she'll be a funny character once you get past her annoying interruptions. Slight like

Howard is a really nice guy and I like that he's very open with his christainty. I see him being a very nice person. Like

Helen is definitely going to be a good character to be in the house, and I see her really being good at talking out of situations. Like.

Jeremy comes off as being one of those jocky people that really will take advantage of other people, and I'm not looking forward to that. Dislike

Jessie is such a self-centered, egotistical person. She really does seem to place herself above everyone else. Dislike

Judd seems okay right now, and he has a nice accent that definitely does fit with the area he is from. Like

Kaitlyn from her picture made her look weird to me, but she seems like a very nice person at the moment. I really do like her and hopes she makes it far as well. Like

McCrae reminds me of this one person that skipped a few grades in my area and was such a cocky little guy and had that "I'm better because I'm smarter and I can do whatever I want" kind of personality, and even has the long black wavy hair and same way he walks, and I really do feel like I'm having a bias opinion of him. He'll probably grow on me, but...Dislike

Nick reminds me of Dan and a little bit of Matt from BB12 with his personality, and I really do like him, as I think he's the best guy on the show. Love

Spencer has a weird accent and is hard to understand, and I'm not sure, but I think he's overthinking himself, and seems like all he wants to do is backstab people. Slight Dislike

Overall, they are all very obnoxious and really loud, and I think that there is going to be a lot of cat fighting this season between the females. I feel that the female cast this year is all going to be all fitting for petty drama and stuff, especially between Jessie and GinaMarie. I think some females like Aaryn and Caitlyn will probably be avoiding that, and to be honest, they probably are the two prettiest chicks on the shows. The guys are very different, though a lot of them seem either obviously buff or - McCrae and Nick's case - really determined in competitive challenges.

I think Jeremy is stupid right now with trying to make all these secret alliances and will probably blow up on him. I do feel like McCrae is the outcast of the season and will have to use his HoH really well to really get some people to like him. Elyssa might be in some trouble with people already starting to suspect her relationship to her sister, and we all saw how it went down with Willie last season.

And the cast is not as ugly I as I thought they were. The pictures they have are definitely not a good representation of their looks, and I feel bad for judging them by the photos. Though I agree, a lot of them are going to be annoying to listen to this summer. I feel like this season will have a lot of drama kings and queens, and a lot of overdramatic reactions to things. I mean, they were all complaining about the first HoH competition, and it was so catty of some of them.
 
Aaryn: Good by comparison to pretty much everyone else, but she'll have to grow on me. Also STFU about Texas, we get the point. OK.

Amanda: ...who, again? N/A

Andy: What you would get if you put Ian and Ragan in a blender, and sprinkled in some red hair. Slight like.

Candice: One of the only females that does not piss me off in any way. Also interesting backstory. Like.

David: I swear to god every time he opens his mouth I want to gag myself with a wooden spoon. Just... don't talk. At all. Period. Strong dislike.

Elissa: ...surprisingly not that bad. She's annoying, but she's not nearly as bad as Rachel was. And, like Aaryn and Candice, by comparison she's actually one of the less annoying ones. Slight dislike

Ginamarie: I know her. Not personally, no, but people very much like her. It's an East Coast thing. She'll grow on me once the actual competition stars but for now... meh. Slight dislike.

Howard: ...again, who? N/A

Helen: I have always had a bit of fondness for the older, more atypical houseguests. Time will tell. OK.

Jeremy: Essentially if Taylor Lautner worked for Bubba Gump. Dislike.

Jessie: Huh, that name sounds familiar... lol, on a serious note, I feel she'll do a good job as a floater but not much more. Slight dislike.

Judd: Ugh, it's this guy again. I never did like most of the "partier" types. And I swear, if him and David get into a conversation, my head will explode. Strong dislike.

Kaitlyn: ...who? N/A.

McCrae: Like Candice, one of he few people that are NOT annoying. Also lol, no one believes he's actually a pizza delivery boy. Like.

Nick: One second I love him for his impeccable Drake Bell impersonation, the next second he drives me up the wall with his lame diary room entries. OK

Spencer: See Helen, but add about two helpings of Arkansas accent. Slight dislike
