Teams are selected prior to night 1, and each team will alternate picks until all 16 houseguests are selected.

If a 17th houseguest is introduced at any point in the season, they will automatically be awarded to the team who loses on first eviction.

Whichever couple wins, will be awarded a dinner of their choosing at any restaurant in the Greater Los Angeles area, and the loosing team will need to foot the bill. The beneficiaries (Shane and Autumn) will also be deemed a winning party, under all circumstances, as they can’t really make decisions on their own.

If Larry and Sara are visiting on a week where you are reigning HOH, you have the luxury of not having to decide where we are eating. That falls on the losers of that week.

If your team selects America’s Favorite Houseguest, an additional bonus win will be awarded to your team. The winning team will have the choice between:

- A night out without their kid and the other family has to babysit AND buy the winning couple a drink
- For the next 3 issues Sara has with her phone and/or TV, the losing team has to solve it for her
- Nails Tab…loser picks up the next nails appointment

Trading of players is allowed up until Jury Selection
