Once again, the power is up for grabs. All 9 of you are eligible to compete.
Tonight’s competition is called “To the Letter.”
The picture below contains several hidden letters:
When you feel that you have found enough letters, your goal will be to form 4 words using the letters.
The competition will be played in 4 rounds. After forming your words, you will need to decide which word to use for each round. You will submit your answers like this:
Round 1: (your word here)
Round 2: (your word here)
Round 3: (your word here)
Round 4: (your word here)
In Round 1, the 3 Houseguests with the shortest words will be eliminated, leaving only 6 houseguests in the running.
In Round 2, the 3 remaining houseguests with the shortest words will be eliminated, leaving 3 players.
In Round 3, the 3 remaining players will be knocked down to 2.
In the fourth and final round, the houseguest with the longest word will become the new HOH.
In forming your words, you may only use each letter you find once. So if there are only 5 As in the image, then you may only use 5 As in all 4 words combined. So you could not use 5 As in your first word and then 5 in your second word. In all 4 words, the total number of As could not exceed 5. All words must be in the English language.
If there is a tie in a round for lowest amount of letters in a word, the person who has more letters than the other person in all 4 words combined will be the one to advance to the next round. If it is still a tie, I will look at who has the most unique words overall. If it is still a tie after that, all the tied individuals will move on to the next round. However, if the tied individuals are tied with 0 points overall, then they will all be eliminated.
If more people move onto the next round due to a tie, then an additional person will be eliminated in the next round. So if 7 people rather than 6 advance to Round 2, then 4 people will be eliminated in Round 2 rather than 3. If there is a tie in the final round after looking at who has the most letters overall and who has the most unique words, then the tied individuals will be given a tiebreaker question on AIM to determine the new HOH.
The only thing you will need to submit is a list of your 4 words and which round you are using each word for. You will submit by PM, and you have until tomorrow night at 10 PM EST to submit.
Good luck!
