The object of The Apprentice Fantasy Game is to accumulate as many points as possible by correctly predicting what will occur during each new episode of The Apprentice.
Each week, there will be 5 to 10 questions worth a total of 100 points. Point values for each question will vary weekly.
Bonus Points: You can accumulate additional bonus points the earlier your selections are made. Bonuses are rewarded to correct predictions submitted at least 48 hours before the game deadline. Bonuses will increment by 5% for every extra 6 hours early your picks are made, up to 50%. Bonuses will be based on the time of your last submission. Therefore, if you make your predictions early and they are correct, you could receive up to 150 points per week.
Season Pick: "Who do you think will become the next Apprentice?"
At the start of the game you will be asked to select one candidate who you think will become the next Apprentice, for a possible 500 points to be awarded at the end of the game. You may change your candidate selection each week along with your weekly predictions until there are only 2 remaining candidates. However, the possible points you can earn will be reduced by 50 points after each new airing of The Apprentice. For example, if you decide to change your candidate during Episode 6, your Season Pick will only be worth a potential 250 points.
If you are entering The Apprentice Fantasy Game for the first time during the middle of the season, the Season Pick will be valued at a possible 500 points MINUS 50 points for each new airing of The Apprentice. For example, if you enter the game during Episode 8, your Season Pick will only be worth a potential 150 points.
Weekly points are tallied, and the player finishing with the highest season total wins the group and will be considered the group's Apprentice.
Deadlines
New weekly questions will often be posted on Wednesdays approximately 1 p.m. ET / 10 a.m. PT on the week of a new episode of The Apprentice. The deadline for weekly picks is 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT on the night of a new episode of The Apprentice. However, airtimes are subject to change and/or preemption which could affect the deadlines.

Keep in mind the change. Before the picks opened on Monday, now it's on Wednesday.
I just did today, forgot until now, dammit. Oh well, no bonus points. At least I go the picks in. It's always tought the first week, don't know anyone.
Though I did consider my answers before I picked them.
The one's I got right:
I knew Brent would be chosen last because he's on the chubby side. Hey, I just knew how each team's prejudices would work - they're not mine!
I knew Brent would claim to be a true team player, since he was picked last so I was pretty sure he'd try to convince others he was reliable.
I knew Summer'd be too much of a moron from her profile. It was kind of obvious. I was convinced she'd try and talk over Donald, and I knew this would make him fire her.
the ones I got wrong:
I thought the Board Room would be an obvious meeting place in the first episode... I think it was Heck that proved me wrong on that one. If they did meet in the board room before their first task though, and then he met them somewhere else to explain the task, then the question is flawed. Ain't my fault.
I should've figured it would be a girl who'd say Sean's accent is fake... woops on my part
Most people bring 2 into the board room. Damn it.
Lenny looks like he lacks common sense. Tarek does too though
I'm on an anti-Bryce campaign. No reason for it, I just wanted Trump to say he was overrated.

After signing in and going to your picks, you should be able to click on the View or Edit link next to Season Pick to choose your candidate.
I tried that...
This is what it says: (now anyhow)
Bonus Picks Status Deadline Submitted Possible Bonus Points

Week Picks Status Deadline Submitted Pts + Bonus = Total

Then when I pick the view link it says this:
Who do you think will become Donald Trump's apprentice? 0 no answer given
It doesnt give me the option to choose anyone. How come?
Maybe I was too late in getting it in. I didnt make my picks until this afternoon. Ill try it again the next time we are able to pick...maybe it just wont allow me to pick right now?
Of course thats just my opinion....I could be wrong. (Dennis Miller)
