    No if we have a huge amount of players we have a couple of ways to whittle that down already planned - will go on for maximum of a week. :D:D

    Aww was hoping this might keep us entertained through the rest of lockdown.

    Aww was hoping this might keep us entertained through the rest of lockdown.

    At some point there might be an extended version but I think for the first outing keeping things condensed would be a better option.


    Just to note for some that are afraid it's another version of Werewolf that is also played here in Forum Games - it isn't.

    The similarities are that there are eliminations from the game in the form of evictions and also voting for Evictions/Head of Household.

    Other than that, it's very very different. There are no 'roles' pre assigned or anything, it's essentially yourself playing and competing against other players.

    There will be challenges and a few tasks to earn some goodies or the Power of Veto (more on that later) - in the main it will be just a bit of craic for the whole week.

    To add to what Necro said,

    It'll be a bit of craic, we the voices behind Big Boardser intend to have a lot of fun with it, and we think you will too. The games and tasks we have planned are there to maximise fun.

    So happy you guys are in!! You're gonna make great additions to the BB household! Oh haha look at that!! I of course meant the big boardser household not the BuileBeag household! :D Anyways, it's always essential to have handsome men in these things!


    Unrelated question: Is canvassing for HoH allowed and how soon is too soon??

    Just wait until the game starts anyway... No canvassing in the Sign-Ups thread. What happens once you're in the house is up to you. ;)

    Don't know what you're talking about, I was simply drawing the attention of a fellow Boardsie to a new game.
    The fact that we are already pals is neither here nor there!
    :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,782 ✭✭✭✭looksee


    I don't think I will be able for this, and I never watched Big Brother so I haven't a clue. So sign me up :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Oh I see, she's buttering me up you reckon?

    Big Boardser kindly asks you don't use butter in the bedroom... It stains the sheets and leaves a greasy smell...

    No foodstuffs should be used for any kinky endeavours...

    Of course I'm not! Ari is trying to turn us against each other. Don't fall for it!

    Mr LeVar sir?? I think this sort of thing should also be banned until the game actually starts!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,554 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Any complaints you may have can be directed to The Response And Service Hotline(T.R.A.S.H.)..

    Oh please, its just LeVar, or even "hey you with the face"... I am neither a Sir nor a Mr and being addressed as such makes my skin crawl... ***shudders***

    And yeah, save the game talk and all of this alliance stuff until you all get in the house, or I might be forced not to let you in at all... ;)

    I used to go by ASLB for short, but then some of these Forum Games cretins started just calling me LeVar, and I liked that better, so its usually just LeVar now. :)

    Also Starring LeVar Burton or ASLB are also fine though... LeVar is the one that most people round these here parts seem to use most...

    If we start calling you Also, someone will inevitably misspell that as Aldo. It will be jumped on and hey presto you will forever be known as Aldo going forward.

    Isn't that right LeBar

    Welcome aboard fixXxer and beakerjoe - the ladies were just saying how they needed more hunks in the Big Boardser house given myself, LeVar and Trigger can't go in there :P


    Ok time for another rule reveal....

    Two houseguests will be nominated to face Eviction each cycle by the Head of Household. Other houseguests may be placed up for nomination due to secret powers/tasks received/completed by others throughout the game (or by Mod Nomination due to lack of activity).

    All Houseguests (via their individual Diary Rooms) except for the nominated houseguests and the Head of Household will have a vote to evict one of the nominees up for eviction. How everyone voted will be made public after each eviction.

    Evictions will take place at 8pm each evening. There may be surprise evictions throughout the day as well
