Big Brother is finally back!

What Is It?



Big Brother Neoseeker began as a brain child of Klope62 and Tainted. Big Brother Neoseeker is based on the popular US Reality TV series, Big Brother. The goal of Big Brother is simple: Take a large group of diverse people, and put them in a house together until only one single challenger is eventually left standing. The power is ultimately in the hands of the houseguests themselves; standings are decided by challenges, and fates are determined by votes.

Big Brother Neoseeker takes this phenomena and translates it into the online forum setting. Physical activity aside, this social experiment can be just as daunting and strenuous as the real thing. What will get you far is your ability to find a balance between maintaining social relationships, while still also being a fierce competitor.

Some of our finalist include: Chelskiman (x2) and RikkuChick, Fusion, Estuve, and our winners; acevus, LivesLikeBeth, vanillagigglez, and VulcanRaven.

As you can see, even some super moderators have been bread after their run through Big Brother, like Chad, bobbonew, and Q22. Are you next?

For a clear example of how this game works, check out the past season threads. Season 1, Season 2, Season 3, Season 4, and Season 5.

If you believe you possess the ability to come out on top, be sure to read the rules and then refer to the Sign Up section for further details.

How To Play

This game takes place in "rounds" (sometimes referred to as weeks). At the beginning of a round, there is a competition to determine who wins the title of Head of Household. The person who wins Head of Household(HoH), is immune from being voted out during the round. The goal of HOH, however, is to nominate two people for eviction. Following nomination, there is the Veto competition. In the Veto Competition, the HoH, the two nominees, and an small array of selected houstguests compete for the Power of Veto. The winner of the Power of Veto (POV) has the option to save one of the people up for eviction by the HOH, or, the ability keep the nominees the same. At the end of the round, members of the house will vote for one of the people up for eviction, and the person with the most votes will be forced to leave the game. This process continues each round until only two people remain. Then the Jury (the last 5 contestants eliminated) vote for the winner of the game.

Reboot

The 5th season of Big Brother was never completed. Quite a few people asked about the future of the game. Well, I'm telling you this: Big Brother is back and strong. With new twists and secrets, this season of Big Brother will be the best yet.

And, as always, don't forget to watch your back.

Rules

• Being active is a must! There are multiple challenges each round, so please only sign up if you are 100% sure you can commit to participating in multiple challenges each week. Most actions will take place in 24 hour intervals. 24 hours is the maximum amount of time that will be alloted for most deadlines, the exact pace, however will determined by the houseguests. If you do not think you will have time at least once a day to participate, do not sign up.

• Failure to compete in a HOH challenge results in automatic nomination. This will be held throughout the season. Remember, activity is a must in this game!

• Diaries (personal insight into the game; featuring out-of-thread discussion, thoughts, issues) will be due during each nomination ceremony. Without a diary, a vote is void, and a penalty (which ranges relative to tasks at hand) will be enforced during the next HOH round. Diaries will be posted for everyone to read at the very end of the season when the new winner is crowned. Keep that in mind when you are writing them. Diaries do not have a set text limit, but the better, more in depth they are written, the more enjoyable they will be for everyone else at the end of the season. Big Brother also really appreciates good diary entries, and is more willing to re-cast contestants with them.

• Alliances and personal relationships are encouraged. Speaking through pm, instant messages, or communicating, however, wherever else is encouraged and accepted.

• There are no limits on help in this game. If you ever feel yourself stuck in a challenge, it is encourage to use your sources. Neoseeker and the internet have an array of topics and available help. Feel free to take advantage of whatever you have at your disposal. If you have help, use it.

• Manipulation is part of the game. Backstabbing, lying, and other tactics *may* be necessary to win. However, at most, you must remember that it is *only* a game.

• This will not be exactly like Big Brother the television program. There are many international versions of the show as well, and this game is based on the US version. However, as this is the internet and not real life, of course there will be differences.

• For this season of Big Brother, it will be necessary to have an MSN account for quick communication. If you do not have one already, making one takes less than 5 minutes.

• When signups are opened, in your PM to me, please do not add the '_oops' smilie in it. All PMs which include the '' smilie will be ignored. Instead, add the epic smiley. This rule is in place mostly to make sure that everyone has read the rules.

• Have fun, and remember, enjoy your stay, but watch your back.
