Veto 1 will be posted tomorrow at 10pm CST. Let me give you some more information.
Nomination is just like Big Brother. 2 people are nominated, that whole bag. In the veto competition, you will be playing for the Golden Veto. The winner of the Golden Veto will also be responsible for handing out additional vetoes. For example, this week the vetoes are the Silver Veto and the Bronze Veto. The winner of the Golden Veto will decide who (other than themselves) will get the vetoes. Only the person who gets the veto gets to know what the veto actually does until the veto is used. They will also know how long the vetoes can last.
In regards to the points, not every challenge will give you points. By completing this veto, you will ONLY get turn in points, not the additional points for coming in 2nd and 3rd. I will be sure to let you know ahead of time.
The board is updated, and Veto 1 will be posted after Chima does her nominations and as soon as I can get to a computer (I have a busy day tomorrow). It's not live, so it's not a huge deal.

Welcome to today's veto challenge! It's pretty simple, you must grab as many vetoes as you can in 5 minutes. Create a NEW thread in your confessional and post
"___ grabs veto" as many times as you can in 5 mintues.
So, if you start at 12:00 you have until 12:05. At 12:06, the vetoes will stop counting.
Now, here's the deal. If everyone does it by 1pm CST Saturday, then I can post results. If not, you will have to wait until late Saturday night. Nobody has to do it, but if you're not going to just let me know so I don't have to wait for you. The catch: You won't get turn in points AND you will not be eligible to receive the extra vetoes.
The choice is yours. Try to do it by 1pm CST Saturday. The winner will be able to give out a Silver Veto and a Bronze Veto.
Good luck everyone!

In case of a tie, the person who did it the earliest will win.
I meant to post that earlier, but I only had a short break from class and didn't think of it until I got back to class.

Now, I hate to be a terrible host, but some people brought something interesting to my attention in their confessionals.
You can only post a maximum of 20 times.
I definitely did not realize that when I thought of this challenge, I didn't know they put the 15 second rule back up (it's been a while for me).
So, to be fair, if y'all want a new veto challenge then I will gladly give you one. I have some back up challenges, and wouldn't mind switching.
Also, I just want to put this out there. When it comes to a challenge, a tie will ALWAYS be broken by time, unless otherwise specified.

If I get a majority of people saying they want a new challenge by 1pm CST, then I will post a new one.

can you post Eastern time as well when you post the time we need to turn stuff in?

Post by Julie Chen on Oct 23, 2009 23:21:18 GMT -6
Yes, but just so you know, Eastern is 1 hour ahead. I'll post both (I like to know the times for my own sake)
Have your decision by 2/1pm and I can have a new challenge for you. 2:30/1:30 at the latest.

I think this challenge is fine, you just have to be careful not to post too quickly.
