Big Brother 14 Edgic Thread (Analyzing The Edit)
 

Not sure if this will work but I've seen it be done with Apprentice and Survivor. It's used to figure out how someone is being portrayed on the show and can be used to predict their journey through the house. Might be fun to do and see how housemates change over the course of the series. :)

How to do it:
After watching each episode we can rate the contestants based on their visibility:

Step 1:

Ratings: OTT, CP, MOR, UTR and INV

OTT (over the top)
CP (complex personality)
MOR (middle of the road)
UTR (under the radar)
INV (Invisible)

Step 2:

Tone: NN, N, neutral (no tone), P, PP (very negative to very positive)

M (Mixed) This is a special tone designation. It is used when a player has both significant negative and significant positive scenes in one episode. It helps differentiate from the "nothing" (neutral) tone of a neglected character or the static neutral of a middle of the road or complex character. It shows active manipulation of a character, rather than a passive or neglected edit.

Note: If an edit contains minor P manipulation but a lot of N manipulation, then the rating is not Mixed, but Negative, as the N manipulation overwhelms the P (and vice versa). Minor manipulation should be regarded as neutral.

Step 3:

Visibility: 1 to 5
(From a low of 1 to a high of 5)

Previous series:

BB9

BB12


So I'll have a go :)
My rankings on the latest episode (Highlights show 1):
Callum: INV1 - has no edit so far.
Charlie: UTR2 - entered the house tonight, little focus.
Daley: UTRP2 - got the P from his positive attitude but still little focus.
Dan: MOR2 - was quite prominent in the episode but wasn't really important tonight except for splitting the fight up.
Dexter: CPP3 - really complex character and quite prominent in the episode.
Gina: OTTN5 - had a really negative, prominent edit and was in the forefront of the arguments tonight, also showed off her "rich bitch" personality.
Hazel: MORP3 - saw her chatting with some housemates, signified on how she's classy when talking about "no boobs, just lingerie".
Jack & Joe - UTR3 - weren't really prominent tonight but made some comments here and there.
Jackie: UTR2 - entered with her daughter but had little focus.
Jemima: MOR3 - showed her sort of showmance with Sam, other than that she didn't do much.
Sallie: CPM5 - was involved in most of the show tonight, we were shown many different sides to her, mainly negative with the arguing with Gina but also friendship with Wolfy and suspicion in Michael.
Sam: MOR3 - showed his showmance a bit but not much else.
Sophie: MORP3 - showed her as a chatty bubbly character and people could sympathise with her with the shower problem.
Wolfy: UTR3 - cannot remember much but a few chats with the main focuses tonight, Sallie and Gina.

Tonight's show - 16th June
Callum: MOR1 - saw him in a supporting role to Gina's storyline and giving her a advice pep talk, referring back to his profession as a coach.
Charlie: UTR2 - she had a few chats here and there but was mostly out of the mix, seen telling her mother to stay out of Gina/Sallie fiasco and making fun of the HMs pictures.
Daley: UTR1 - spoke a couple of times, saw him in a short segment teaching Jemima to box.
Dan: MOR3 - learnt his storyline of how he came out to his son.
Dexter: UTR1 - didn't have much, if any prominence tonight but was still in the scenes.
Gina: OTTM5 - she was the main focus of the episode again tonight, had another spur with Sallie, talked about herself non stop and shared a meal with Michael. housemates are feeling she's out of the mix too but she had some sort of redemption when she felt bad for Wolfy and was brought to tears.
Hazel: MOR2 - saw her console Michael and actively engage in chats around the house.
Jack & Joe: MOR2 - they're in most of the scenes with witty remarks.
Jackie: UTR3 - briefly saw her engaging as the mother role in the house, trying to help Gina.
Jemima: MORN3 - showed her bitchy side and her siding with Sallie.
Sallie: CPM5 - focus was still on her and Gina but also trying to figure out the mole then stealing the sweets which ended badly, however editing showed no one to be bothered about their loss of the dinner.
Sam: INV1 - can't remember seeing him tonight.
Sophie: UTRP2 - she made a few comments and has been shown as quite bubbly.
Wolfy: MOR4 - shown again her friendship with Sallie then having the sympathy storyline with Gina.

Contenders: Dan, Sophie, Wolfy and Hazel are definitely coming across well so far from my point of view. :)

How can someone with a 1 visibility be MOR

They're building on him... I can see him doing a coach like task soon enough.

Okay but MOR1 is a bit of an oxymoron

Sorry I've never done it before, it's a nice system mind... I'm guessing you're the edgic expert troy?

Interesting thread :) Seems pretty much spot on as well.
