Ok, let's start.

We have 15 players and we might as well keep this as the game thread as well since it's already got the rules on the first page and such. Misanthrope, could you please change the name of the thread to reflect it's game status?

The first Head of Household challenge will be posted tomorrow, but before the week is up, I need you to fill out the following survey and PM it to me.

1. Besides yourself, who do you think will win the game?

2. Who do you think will be first eliminated?

3. Who do you think will be your closest ally?

4. Who will likely be your biggest enemy?

I remember you signed us up for a bowling league without any consultation. You then missed every game making me scramble to find makeshift partners to play a game I had no interest in, for a league I never signed up for..... Ah the good old days

In my defense, I underestimated just how terrible at bowling you were :lol:

Houseguests, the power is up for grabs.

In this weeks Head of Household competition, houseguests will be put to the test on their knowledge of point scorers in the NRL.

On Friday and Saturday, there will be 5 matches played in the NRL:

Melbourne vs Penrith
Parramatta vs Canterbury
Canberra vs Cronulla
Newcastle vs Gold Coast
St George Illawarra vs South Sydney

Your task is to nominate 15 players (it must be a combination of 7 backs, 6 forwards and 2 players named to start on the interchange bench). These 15 will then earn points for you by how many tries they score in those 5 fixtures.

You can then name ONE of those players as a Goalkicker who will also earn points for you by how many goals they kick. You can also name ONE Captain. This captain will earn double points for you on tries, but not on goalkicks, even if they are the named goalkicker.

Scoring is simple:
4 Points for a try
2 Points for a goal

Decisions on whether a player is a back, forward or interchange will be based on what position they are named at in tomorrows team lists.

Here is an example of how your list should be sent to me:

Backs:
1. Marcus Bai- Melbourne
2. Luke Rooney- Penrith
3. Lee Oudenryan- Parramatta (Captain)
4. Ewan McGrady- Canterbury
5. Ian Herron- SGI (Goal Kicker)
6. Greg Smith- Newcastle
7. Steve Michaels- Gold Coast

Forwards:
8. Ian Roberts- Souths
9. Bill Peden- Newcastle
10. Mark Riddell- SGI
11. Hutch Maiava- Canterbury
12. Tony Puletua- Penrith
13. Russell Bawden- Melbourne

Interchange:
14. Chris Walker- Gold Coast
15. Jeff Fenech- Parramatta

Failure to set it in this format may cause you to be disqualified. Naming a player out of position will mean that you won't earn points from that player.

Please PM your entry to me by 6PM Friday.

The person with the most points at the end of Saturday's fixtures will be the first Head of Household. In the event of a tie, the person whose captain has scored the most points wins, if that is the same then the person who first sent in their entry wins.

Good luck Houseguests.
