The Boxes of Fate

Housemates... are you open to your fates?

Please join Kate & myself tomorrow between 2 and 4 pm. If you can't make it don't worry. A box will be chosen randomly for you. It'll be first come first pick starting at 2pm. Choices all need to made by 4pm and if not the randomising will come into play.

There will be 8 boxes with various content. Might be good. Might be not so good! 4 boxes will remain unopened.

I will reveal your fates and the contents of all 8 boxes after everyone has chosen.

As the Box picking game is this afternoon I thought it would be easier and quicker if you could each pick numbers now.

Then Josiah and I don't have to use a randomiser.

How will it work? I'll explain.

You should each pm me the numbers 1 to 8 in your order of preference to choose your boxes.

I've picked names out of a pot to determine the order in which you'll get to choose your boxes.

Vanessa will go 1st.
Nicky 2nd.
Jones 3rd.
Barry 4th.

Once a number has gone it can't be picked again.

There are 4 different box contents. Each content will appear in 2 of 8 boxes. 6 boxes will contain privileges. 2 boxes will contain a double edged sword.

Once a particular content has been chosen it can't be picked again so if that happens I'll move on to your next choice of box.

It'll all make sense when we actually do it.

For now just send me your order preference of the numbers 1 to 8 as soon as possible. If not received by 1.30pm I'll have to resort to random selection.

Also gonna post this in the game thread. The thread about the Boxes.

Thanks. Lists by 1.30pm via pm to Kate.

[Kate!]

Changed the rules as we think we may bring the game forward.

@jones89 @Vanessa @Barry. @Nicky91

Housemates please disregard the last pm. Slight game change arrangements. Josiah and I need to bring Box picking forward to 1pm.

Sincere apologies.

I've asked an independent forum member, who does not know the contents of the boxes, to select each of you a totally random order of numbers to picked for you in the box task.

[Kate!]

So Jake has chosen orders at random.

This is the order in which you'll pick your Box preferences.

Vanessa will go first
Then Jones
Then Barry
Then Nicky

This was decided by picking names in order out of a pot.

Big Brother Housemates. Kate and Josiah here.

We are going to be presenting this Box Task together.

I'll announce the housemates names in the pre determined random order and which box they are choosing, also in a pre determined random order.

In between Josiah will reveal the contents of the chosen box
Let's begin.

[Kate!]

First to choose a box according to her list is Vanessa.

Box 4.

[Josiah.]

Vanessa, Box 4 contains...

Spoiler:

Treats For All

You and your fellow housemates receive points and treats.

[Kate!]

Oooh!!

[Kate!]

Up next it's Jones.

Box 1

[Josiah.]

Jones, Box 1 contains...

Spoiler:

Privilege #1: Vote Addition

You must add 10 votes to the most deserving housemate.

[Kate!]

Oh this is so exciting!

[Kate!]

Now it's the turn of Barry.

Box 6.

[Josiah.]

Barry, Box 6 contains...

Spoiler:

Privilege #2: Viewers' Lounge

You can now post in the Viewers' Lounge until the game ends.

[Kate!]

Blimey!

[Kate!]

And finally Nicky

Box 8.

[Josiah.]

Nick, Box 8 contains...

Spoiler:

Super Secret Privilege

You have a sneak peek at the most recent vote to win percentages. You cannot under any circumstance share them with the other housemates.

[Kate!]

Woop!

Interesting.

[Kate!]

So housemates. What do you make of all that?

As each housemate had a different number (no duplicates) at the top of their lists no further boxes need to be picked.

Josiah will now reveal where the remaining contents were hidden.

[Ammi]

…so either Ben, Cherie or myself could/will have all of their support votes throughout the game halved for the person that Vanessa chooses…?…
