Guest Lucybell55 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Does anyone know about the grand prizes. I know that if a pair gets to the end together that the grand prize is a MIL and the runner up is $250,000 but what are they going to get if they don't get to the end with their partners? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DivaSupreme Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I thought they said that if the pairs thing doesnt work, its the standard payoff of 500K to the winner and 50K to the runner up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendes56 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I think the standard prize is 500 grand for the winner and 50 grand for the runner up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bink_wolf Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Julie mentioned during Thursdays episode that even if a pair does not make it to the final two. The Winner still gets the Million $$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yana Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 No she didn't she said if they made it to the end together they would get the larger amount... She didn't say that if they were found out but still made it to the end that the cash would reduce to the normal amount... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bink_wolf Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I am absolutely positive she mentioned that the winner got the million no matter what, as part of there summer of secrets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yana Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 That isn't what I heard... I went back and rewatched the show and that's not what she said... She said IF a pair makes it to the end together they will get the mil... Only they don't know how much more the prize is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bink_wolf Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Well I could be completely wrong. I could have swore I heard something, but then I could have just tangled up words. Althou that they only don't know how much more the prize is, just that portions makes me think I am correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgectv Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Bink, I'm siding with Yana on this one... IF a pair makes it to the end, the winner gets a mil... I noticed because my question was if they just had to make it to the end, or if they had to do it without being discovered to be a pair... so I noticed the way Julie worded it, and it was only IF they made it to the end... but if the final two aren't a pair, then the prize drops back down to the old paultry $500K :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racenbug Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 YEPPERS...only a mil if they both make it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JustMe Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 Hey , I heard Jenell tell sarah that if a pair won they got 1 million , HOW did she know this ?? Julie made it very very very clear that the HG's did not know this info . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CasperSabe Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 They were told they'd win the biggest prize in BB history .. perhaps they are guessing ... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JustMe Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 Maybe , just odd that she new the exact amonut . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CasperSabe Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 well if I were told that .. that would have been my guess too since all the other reality shows give away 1 mil ..Now if she said 250,000 then I would be suspicious (about the runner up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HJW418 Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 This is my first time posting but have been reading all the post...We thought that Michael got the safe opened and there was some sort of Safe card..What if what was in the safe was the list of all of the couples and how much money they were going to win??? Just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ah282 Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 I hope it was more then just that. I wish they would have let him say something about the safes. Maybe it is if he kept quiet he got to come back in a couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WhitePhoenix Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I don't know if this has been discussed yet. Ignore it for ramblings of a tired insomniac mind with an over dose of sick puppy love if it has.Anyways...Apparently Julie Chen will be announcing the Million / 250 K incentive for a winning pair on thursday.I was just thinking how that will change the game for some of them. Would the pairs target the singles? Or will most of them will be smart enough and target power couples (a la Howie/Rachel...) Whom have successfully flown under the radar so far.There is a good chance of ppl forgetting about King Kayser and other leftovers for a while and wage all out war on the couples. Now if that happens, as much as I hate it, but Sov 6 alliance will be the first to crumble. As both, How/Rach and James/Sarah would want to turn against each other as they are the two most powerful (hoh/veto win wise) couples and are known threats to each other.How do you think the house strategies will change and what re alignment will occur as a result?

cktb2793 Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 it could go either way....the couple's could form a pact to gang up and get out the singles before going after each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jadey Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I have a feeling the evicted partners are coming back & it will be a new game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cktb2793 Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I have a feeling the evicted partners are coming back & it will be a new game. They'd have to do ALOT of evictions to get the show over on time if they did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
