Well it is that wonderful time of the tv viewing season once again...the premier of the Bachelor! Now most of you know I was less than thrilled with Jake as the choice for the Bachelor, however now after watching the first episode I know the show will not be lacking in the entertainment department...this season is even more cheesy than the last if that is even possible! Seeing as Jake kept ALL of the crazies last night we should have at least some good drama ahead!
We started off the season with a small crew (Brittni and me) so we hope to see more of you next week! And since you all were not there I thought I would pass along some of my favorite non-episode quotes of the night:
Brittni- about 20 minutes into the show "I just didn't know if I would have time for the show with school this semester...but I SO have time!"
Jill- via text "And if you understood Cambodian better what she said Laurie is you can land your plane on my landing strip"
Laurie- after Jake says, "it is nothing personal"..."um...isn't that exactly what it is...he is saying hey it is you personally that I don't like as much as these other girls?!!!"

This Season's Game Rules
We are kicking off another season which means another season of point tracking!!
How it works:
1. Each week I will send an email (usually the day after the episode) with the questions for the following week and the spreadsheet of remaining girls.
2. Your answers to the week's questions must be submitted prior to the show time for the upcoming week.
3. If you do not submit your guesses on time for a week you will simply get the same amount of points as the lowest point total for the week.
4. Scoring is done by getting points for correctly guessing those that will be eliminated as well as being the closest to the actual numbers or other guesses. I will let you know each week how many points each item is worth.
5. This year there will be bonus points for those viewing the show in person...each week it will be something different so it pays to watch with the group.
Results- Week 1
**point totals can be viewed on the sidebar
Eliminations
Each correct eliminated girl = 5 points
most correct eliminations goes to Kevin with 6
"Pilot"
Exact guess = 10 points
Emily, Bri and Christine guessed exactly with it being said 15 times (should have gone with pilot/flying references and we would have been over 100 I bet!!)
"Amazing"
Exact guess = 10 points
Emily was the closest guessing 6 instead of 5 so she gets 9 points (10 minus the 1 she was off by)
Red Dresses
Exact guess = 10 points
Emily is the only one with the exact guess of 5
