Week 9 Scores and No Recap :(

Alright, before we get anything about the actual Bachelor episode this week, I want to tell you all a little story.  The other night I had a dream that I was on the next season of Bachelor Pad.  Yup, you read that right.  I was on a season that hasn't actually aired, and the reason I was on it was because I had been on Sean's season of The Bachelor and didn't win.  In my dream, we were in Montana or Canada and Sean and I were talking and I told him how he really didn't get to know me on his season, and then I started telling him about my LEED exam and how to calculate drawdown rates when figuring out stormwater retention systems... Then I woke up.  FYI - I keep getting the drawdown rate calculation wrong when I'm awake... I reaaaalllly need to change some things up in my life.

So as you can see things are little nuts for me right now.  My apologies for just getting this up late and the lack of a recap this week.  Obviously I'm too busy reading about sustainable building and dreaming about Sean. I really, really, really, really wish I had time to recap this week because there was A LOT of golden material (see: AshLee's video, AshLee's exit, Catherine being super weird and nerdy, Lindsay and Sean playing with fluorescent chickens... I mean really ABC??)

First, let's get to the scores... updated spreadsheet lives HERE per usual.

And here is the new Top 5:

1. Jess H.
2. Andrea
3. Lisa J.
4. Aimee
5. Caitlin

Jess H is still reigning champ, but with the first and second place scoring (400 and 500 points) to come, a lot can still change. Like I said last week, only 7 people have Catherine, so things should get interesting.

Things to Remember:
- you get 100 POINTS TO WAGER IN ELIMNATIONS!
- the finale is March 11th
- Next week is the Women Tell All special

I will not be recapping the Women Tell All either, because I will be on beach in Jamaica drowning failed sorrows or celebrating the passing of my LEED Exam in copious amounts of booze and, hopefully, sun. However, I will most definitely be watching upon my return, because I cannot wait to see what AshLee has to say.

Anyway, since I'm not doing a recap on the best week ever, here are links to two hilarious recaps for you to read in my absence.

Episode 9 Elimination Picks

Alright, gentleladies and men...

The good news is that tonight are the Fantasy Suite Dates!!!!

The bad news is this week is a bit cray cray for your girl, Commish, soooo I am honestly not sure when I'll get the recap up.  I'll have scores up first things tomorrow, but I have a work trip later this week, a professional exam, and then I'll be on vacation next week (rough life).

Anywayyyyy, ELIMINATION PICKS ARE DUE BY 8PM!  There are 3 girls left:

AshLee
Catherine
Lindsay

And you get a 100 points.  The odds sound pretty good to me.

Now send in ya picks!

Episode 8 Recap and Scores

Guys and Gals, I almost made it posting this Tuesday, but I didn't have all the pics done, soooo yeah. FYI, I will not be recapping last night's "Sean Tells All!" special, as it was borrrring... even when the closing credits were just him in the shower. Seriously, ABC? The quotes about Tierra, however, were phenoms, though, so I might have to share my thoughts on that. We'll see..

Whatevs, let's get to what you're really here for... Scores are updated and the spreadsheet lives HERE.

And here is the new Top 5:

1. Jess H.
2. Aimee
3. Lisa J.
4. Andrea
5. Jes S.

We have a new number 1, Jess H! Remember, starting next week the girls will start earning their position points which are 250, 400, and 500 points, so if you have Catherine, Lindsay, or AshLee on your team, there's a chance for your team to make a comeback. Only 7 people have Catherine and 10 have Lindsay, so things should get interesting.

Speaking of things getting interesting... remember you get 100 POINTS TO WAGER IN WEEKLY ELIMNATIONS for the rest of the season! With 3 girls lefts your odds are pretty good. Elimination points and submissions will be used as tie breakers!

This week, a favorite and front runner from the start, Desiree, was eliminated at quite a dramatic rose ceremony, so those of you who chose Des in your elimnation picks earned your points.  No one else went home, so that's all I have to say about that...

Now, ON TO THE RECAP!

Episode 7 Scores and Recap

Alright, kiddos, my apologies for the late post this week, but I am studying for a professional exam so it's been busy... I meannnn, jk, I was totes waiting for Valentine's Day to post about Sean and his lovers. Duhh!

Updated spreadsheet with all the scores is HERE

And here is the new Top 5:

1. Lisa J.
2. Andrea
3. Aimee
4. Jess M.
5. Lisa S.

Lisa J. has knocked out our reigning number 1 leader, Jess M! We are down to 4 girls now and next week are hometowns. All the girls will get 20 points to start for getting the hometown dates. After next week the top 3 girls will start earning their position points which will really catapult the scores, so even if you think you're out now, that might not be the case if you have girls left on your team.

This week Tierra and Lesley were eliminated. If Tierra was on your team you got 25 pts for her being kicked off for reasons outside of normal elimination, but you do not earn points because she wasn't eliminated via the rose ceremony. If you chose Lesley to go home you earned your elimination points.

FROM HERE ON OUT YOU WILL BE GIVEN 100 POINTS TO WAGER IN ELIMNATIONS! Because some people's entire teams have been eliminated, this will keep it interesting.

And now...

On to the Recap!

Episode 7 Eliminations Picks

As you can see from the Tweet above tomorrow night is going to DRAAAAAAMA. Hope y'all are ready!  (Yes, even I'm saying it now, ugh)

Elimination Picks are due by 8pm sharp!  We are back down to 50 pts to wager this week as there is only 2 hours of the Bachelor, thank G.  Here's a list of the girls are left:

AshLee
Catherine
Desiree
Lesley
Lindsay
Tierra

The pool is getting small, so the chances to pump up your score is high!

Episode 6 Recap

Epsiode 5 is recapped in the previous post, and scores from 5&6 are HERE.  Now on to Episode 6!

Episode 5 Recap

Scores are posted in the last blog post, now on to the recap of episode 5!

Episode 5&6 Scoring

Because there were approximately 17 hours of Sean and Chris Harrison talking about the most dramatic moment ever in the history of forever ever on The Bachelor, and Sean spent another 12 hours debating whether his wife was on the blue team or red team or not even in the room (oh-em-gee!!), I am going to do the blog post differently this week. This post will be a scoring update only, and the recaps will be posted tonight.

HERE is the updated spreadsheet.

And here is the new Top 5:

1. Jess M.
2. Jes S.
3. Lisa J.
4. Andrea
5. Aimee

Technically, Jes S. and Lisa J. are tied, but Jes has more earned elimination points. As previously stated, earned points are the tie breaker.

Sean sent home FIVE girls this week, which was, like, the HARDEST decision he's ever had to make in, like, the last week ever. Obvi. I mean he was totes heartbroken sending Sarah home. But we all saw that coming, even Sarah, because at the end of the day, she's missing part of her arm. I actually felt bad for her and wanted be like, Sean, you're a douche. But any dude who is on The Bachelor is obviously a douche so I guess Sarah should have known. But props to her for going on TV to prove a point about your arm and dating.

If Sarah was on your team you got 25 pts for her being kicked off for reasons outside of normal elimination. If you chose Daniella, Jackie, Robyn, or Selma to go home you earned your elimination points. Basically everyone who submitted elimination points this week, earned points. For those of you who didn't you missed out on pumping up your score by a possible 100 points.

Alright, so that's the scoring update. Episode 5&6 recaps will be posted by tonight.

Episode 5 and 6 Elimination Picks

Ok guys, ABC has decided that I really have nothing better to do with my life and is showing TWO EPISODES this week. Contrary to the usual, I do in fact have a lot going on this week. Monday night is the beanpot and I will be in attendance so I will be behind in catching up on 3 hours of The Bachelor. I know, I know most of you are probs all like what a the f is the beanpot and how is it more important than The Bachelor? Basically is a college hockey tournament that breaks my heart every year because I am an NU alumna.

Anyway, enough about that. There are 2 things you need to take from this:

1. The recap and scoring won't be up till Thursday.

2. Because there are two episodes and I am not sure how many girls will be going home or when, EVERYONE IS GETTING 100 POINTS FOR ELIMINATIONS PICKS!

I know this is super annoying to those of you have already submitted picks, but it could be really helpful to those of you who have already lost 2 or 3 girls.

The catch for getting 100 points for eliminations is that ALL OF YOUR PICKS FOR BOTH EPISODES MUST BE SUBMITTED PRIOR TO THE AIRING OF THE FIRST EPISODE 8pm MONDAY.

If you have any questions, concerns, or fears please just let me know.
