The Bachelorette: Final Underway: OP Updated - Please Read.

[Kate!]

OP Updated: The Final of The Bachelorette is now underway, between Zac and Randy, after much controversy...moving swiftly on! For the final task, both contestant are creating Campaign threads, as their last chance to convince Miss Mollie that they are "The One". Contestants need to be liaising with their Campaign Managers or myself (whoever is online) as to what they want in these threads, selling themselves is very important. Forum members are encouraged to post in these threads, show your support for your preferred contestant, there is no forum vote...Mollie makes the final decision, but will be taking absolutely everything into consideration, so speak up :D Why should Zac win? Why should Randy win? Task ends at 5pm tomorrow.

Campaign threads:

Zac - http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forums/showthread.php?t=200091

Randy - http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forums/showthread.php?t=200069

Welcome to the voting poll thread for the semi-final of the Bachelorette, where it will be decided which guy makes it through to compete in the Final against Pixter Lott (who won the free pass).

You may vote for one or two of the three semi-finalists. Mollie and myself can vote for however many we like as usual. Contestants may vote. :)

Voting will be open for 24 hours. After that Mollie will add her allocated extra 10 votes, which she has divided among the contestants based on their efforts in this task. This decision will be announced by the independent adjudicator, Samuel, after the poll closes. Only Samuel and Mollie will know what these scores are until then :devil: (even I don't know).

Please look at all 3 entries before voting. Thanks.

Semi Final Task: Piddles Palace

Randy, Horatio and Zac, you have reached the semi final and only one of you can go forward to join Pixter in the final Showdown. Here is your task. Piddles is a very important part of Mollie's life. Love me, Love my dog and all that! He leads a very privileged lifestyle and even has his own bedroom which hasn't been redecorated for quite some time. Your task....to design a bedroom for this pampered pooch :D

Randys' Entry

I've used this website here: http://www.dressupgirl.net/dressup/896/Bedroom-Design.html

http://i44.tinypic.com/3178hsj.png

Description:
There are two posters in this room - one of Pixie Lott and one of John Locke. This will provide Piddles with the ideal two role models Piddles needs. There is a telephone on the bedside table for Piddles to phone his dog-friends and arrange trips to the park. Piddles has his own personalised dog bowl and a chew-toy fused with the scent of District 12, for him to angrily gnaw at in times of doggy-frustration. He has bean bags, a chaise lounge, a double bed and a window-cubby for extra comfort, too. There's a turtle rug too which I don't remember putting in but that's okay because I can use it for Piddles to piddle on, since he probably hates ukturtle or something. I'm not sure what those two things by the window are, but they look fun.

Horatios' Entry

http://i41.tinypic.com/wa4pd5.jpg

Piddles looks like he has enough luxuries from the gorgeous Miss Mollie anyway, why would he need to live like a king (it is a he, right?) But yeah, I'll stick a television etc in so he can enjoy a stunning Pixie Concert, IN HD AS WELL, snazzy eh? But as long as I make you and Piddles happy, that's all I'd want, you're perfect and I want to taste you.

Be mine, always, Hor.

Zacs' Entry

http://i42.tinypic.com/1sfr68.png

I went for a Pink Scheme because most pampered dogs love that colour. I gave Piddles a room with a lot of space to run about and play, also with her own personalized bowl to drink/eat food from.

Also included some little toys, and a soft kennel and bed. Above we have a photo of Piddles - along with her two inspirations Mollie and Pixie Lott.

[Benjamin]

Isn't piddles a boy? Very feminine rooms. :idc:

[Kate!]

He's in touch with his feminine side.

[Niamh.]

I think Zacs is the best, Randys is more of a persons bedroom and Horatio put very little effort in imo, Zac is all dog related

[Kate!]

more votes please.

[michael21]

waits for Kate to pm me to vote :laugh:

[Kate!]

Very close vote so far.

[Kate!]

Poll closes soon, last reminder to vote.

[Pyramid*]

Randy - there's been lots of thought put into it, far more than the other two.

Sorry Zac and Horatio.

[Me. I Am Salman]

Voted for Zac cos I think he was the most creative in this task
Voted for Hor as well - I know his attempt wasn't the best, but he has been a legend throughout this whole competition, so he has to go through to the final for that

[Kate!]

Right then....Poll is now closed.

As it stands Randy has the most votes. However, Mollie's 10 point allocation has yet to be awarded, so shortly the independent adjucator will announce this and then the two finalists will be revealed.

Watch this space.

[Samuel.]

Randy received
3 points

Horatio received
1 point

Zac received

[Kate!]

Thank you Samuel.

Therefore the final vote count for the semi final is.....

Randy - 10 plus 3 = 13
Horatio - 8 plus 1 = 9
and Zac - 8 plus 6 = 14

Zac is victorious and will now face Pixter in the final. Congratulations Zac.

Randy and Horatio, you came so close, were both very entertaining. Thank you very much for all your efforts and enthusiasm.

The final challenge will be posted soon and also the reveal of Randy and Horatios' identities. Any guesses?

I can now reveal that the forum members who created the wonderful characters of Randy and Horatio were.......

Randy ..... Shaun

and

Horatio..... Black.Dagger

I'd like to invite the semi finalists above to post in the thread with any comments they may want to make.

[Black Dagger]

I had fun as Horatio.

Yes, I could have put more effort into this challenge, but oh well, as long as I made people laugh then I'm happy.

[Me. I Am Salman]

Unlucky Hor & Randy.. Seb is here for you

Pixter & Zac now that's gonna be a close one :amazed:

[Maia]

Great effort was put into this task from all 3 semi-finalists so well done :hug: They were all very spiffing palaces that met with Piddles' approval. Sad to see you go Randy and Horatio you have been excellent contestants, but I am sure one of you might get an offer from Suzy Layton if she's available

Think it'll be proper tense and exciting with Pixter vs. Zac though, looking forward to seeing what's gonna happen in the final :D

Suzy the floozy.... :devil:

[Kate!]

The Final Challenge.

Campaign Trail.

Pixter.....and Zac.....you are the finalists in Tibb does The Bachelorette. You've come a long way. This is your task:

You must now each choose one fellow forum member to post a campaign thread for your character. Choose wisely. This person will become your ally and must not reveal your identity to anyone. You must each pm me the name of your chosen ally as soon as possible. The task will not begin until both of you have done so. I'll post in here when the task starts, so keep a check.

In this Campaign thread you may post pictures, songs, poems, endorsements, designs etc. You may post any or all of your previous task entries. Use your imagination, get creative. Invite feedback from forum members in the thread, the more positive the better. Your ally will do all the posting on your behalf.

Any questions, please pm me.

[Shaun]

Randy just killed himself out of grief.

[Kate!]

Randy just killed himself out of grief.

RIP lovely Randy.

Pixter and Zac, just a couple of things to bear in mind....try to pick someone who spends a fair bit of time on Tibb, consider people who have voted for and said good stuff about your characters, also work with your ally to make your thread enjoyable for Mollie. It is your last stand. :D

[Kate!]

Pixter and Zac, I know I haven't set a deadline for starting the final, but please let me know who your chosen ally for the task is asap, if you need a little more time, let me know that asap as well, thanks.

[Kate!]

This is now annoying. I announce the final and one of the two disappears off the face of the earth.

[Kate!]

Right, I have had to make a decision, as I have twice now pm'd Pixter about the final and received no response, it's two days later and on both occasions when I have pm'd, he has gone off line around half an hour later without replying. I want to get the final underway so am now reluctantly taking the step of cancelling the free pass to the final and reinstating Randy so the final will between Randy and Zac. Unfortunately Randys' identity was revealed, but there is nothing I can do about that now.

Could Randy please confirm that he is happy to return to the competition.

I'm sorry everyone, it's a mess, and I put so much effort into it to make it good. :(

[Shaun]

Sure :) His suicide attempt was unsuccessful and he'd be delighted to return.

[Kate!]

Sure :) His suicide attempt was unsuccessful and he'd be delighted to return.

thank god for that! :)

[Kate!]

Shaun, if you read up on the task for the Final, you may either choose someone to post your campaign thread, or as your identity is out, you may do it yourself.

Zac, you have a choice to make? You may still pm me the name of your ally to post your campaign thread, or reveal your identity, and do your own. It's entirely up to you.]

Once again, sorry everyone, I've been really messed about in this game by some of the contestants.

Drumroll please..........



Over to you Mollie.

[Maia]

Ok guys, it was a difficult decision. You've both been amazing throughout this series. Randy I have loved your strong Austrian background and I look forward to that Austrian Wii game you're bringing out. Zac, you've been charming from the beginning, a lovely laidback guy and very easy to get along with.

I've loved you both, and I would choose both of you if I could, but unfortunately I can only pick one....AND THAT ONE IS..............

[Kate!]

They are both online, so I hope they are here.

[Kate!]

Only one is online now. :eek:

[Maia]

Zac Silverstein!

You have impressed me all along with your charming personality and I believe you are right for me. Your amazing campaign thread really won me over as well. We will have great times together I am certain.

Randy you were fantastic, and I loved your effort throughout the challenges, but I think you will be absolutely fine and I am sure people will be flooding in for you when you release that Austrian Wii game. Vielen Dank und viel Glück für die Zukunft!

[Kate!]

Thanks so much Mollie. I think I was as nervous as I know Zac was for the announcement.

Shall I tell you who Zac is now?
