got this in my inbox ...thought you'd like to read it.
Each player started with 40 points. The player with the most points won
veto.
You could give up points to win good stuff: a slop pass, a phone call
home, a plasma TV, a vacation to Aruba, $5000.
You could gain points by winning individual punishments: not being able
to play in next week's POV, solitary confinement for 24 hours.
You could gain points by punishing the whole house: putting everyone
not in the competition on slop, putting the whole house on cots and
cold water only.
Before the competition, all six players agreed not to do things that
punished the house.
If more than one player bid on each item, the player who buzzed first
or wrote down the highest number won the item.
Danielle accepted an individual punishment (solitary confinement) for 9
points and ended up with 49. She tried to win the individual non-veto
punishment, but Boogie (?) hit the button faster.
Janelle accepted two items that punished the house: putting half the
house on slop (5 points) and putting the whole house on cots and cold
water (10 points). Her total of 55 points won the veto contest.
James knew that once he refused to bid on the two whole house
punishments, he couldn't win veto, so he won the phone call and the
margarita party for the house.
Marcellas won the slop pass.
Will won the $5000, plasma TV and the Aruba vacation.
I think Boogie hit the non-veto punishment button faster than Danielle and kept her from
winning veto. He was not absolutely sure he had gotten this one.
Will and Boogie are lying about Will taking the plasma TV and the
vacation. They are saying that Marcellas won those.
Basically, the contest was structured such that, if you were willing to
bid on the two whole house punishments, you would win POV. That's what
Janelle did
