Thats right people we are now ready to accept applications for the first ever Buffy Boards Big Brother!

Please read the rules below first before you send in your application - these rules are non negotiable and if you send in your application you are agreeing to be bound by them. They are there to help make the game fun!

The game will run for 2 weeks, 12 housemates will be chosen and the prize is a special item from the Buffy Boards Store

Closing date for applications is the end of the month

Please do not post your application for here - send it by pm either to myself or Nix

Housemate Rules

1 - Should you be accepted into the house then you must keep this to yourself until launch night. We understand you will be excited but it ruins it for the those watching.

2 - No access to the outside board. As part of this rules housemates private messages will be disabled for the duration of their stay in the house. When you enter the house you will only be able to see the house forums and not the rest of the boards. Please note that profile messages (both receiving and sending) will also be disabled.

3 - As well as having no access to the board you will also not be allowed into the chat room for your duration.

4 - Housemates must not discuss their nominations with any other housemates, failure to do so will result in you being automatically placed up for eviction.

Application Form

Buffy Boards House


Personal Questions

1. Do you have any special skills that will come in useful in the house?

2. What are your pet hates (in relation to the internet and social forums)?

3. Why do you think you will be a good housemate?

4. What do you think housemates will find most annoying about you?

5. Who would you consider your closest friends on the boards?

6. Are there any members that irritate you the most?

7. If you are in a bad mood do you take it out on others online?

8. If a fellow member confided in you that they had broken the rules, would you report them?

Buffyverse Questions

1. Who is your favourite character in Buffy/Angel/Firefly and why?

2. Who is your least favourite character in Buffy/Angel/Firefly and why?

2. What is your favourite ship and why (if you have one).

3. What is your least favourite ship and why (if you have one).

Finally Big Brother would like you to make an offering along with your application. This can be in the form of graphic art or a poem of some sort. So get your creative mojo on.
 
Surely the no PM's, VM's or IRC is unfair on non participants? What if someone desperately needed to talk to someone that was participating in this but didn't have any other way of contacting them except on here?

maybe figure out a way to contact them outside the forum before the game starts? if you're only way to contact them is thru the board, its probably not going to be an emergency to talk to them
"LookingGlass agrees: maybe figure out a way to contact them outside the forum before the game starts?"

We don't know who's gonna be in it until it starts though
 
Right. So anyone that you think you may absolutely HAVE to contact if they were in the house, get another way to contact them before game starts.
 
This isn't prison. It's like the regular Big Brother. If there is a message that you really need passed on, contact a mod. Big Brother will be able to pass it on. If it's a personal message that absolutely can't wait, contact a mod and we'll see what we can do. We're not evil, inflexible overlords, you know....

Good to know

Making it a prison would be an interesting idea for next year's though...
and I wouldn't put it past the regular Big Brother to make it into a prison, those guys are evil i tell you!
 
Aww man, I totally wanna send in my application. But but, I think I'm to nice to be in the House, or is it the Boofy-Board's Prison? IS IT? Awww. 🙁

I'm not a watcher of big brother but you mean once inside the house and those nominations? It's allowed to now talk among members about applications to be sent in?


And is the whole "3 members from every house" thing skipped all together? Or will you see if that's possible from the applications and if not skip it?

No its not skipped altogther - I was going to say that is why we ask for your house but I see that I forgot to copy that part over! For those that have sent in applications already don't worry we'll add your house but for those who have not yet set their applications to put the house in.

We want to try and keep it fair balanced between the houses so in the hope that we get enough applications per house it will be 3 housemates per (Buffy Boards) house.

Closing date will be the end of the month -we are still working on the secret stuff and it gives people time to consider their applications. Once applications are closed housemates will be contacted one week later with the game starting the following week. A more solid annoucement with specific dates will be posted later in the month.
 
I'm not in a house 🙁

Wait, why am I sad about that - its not like I left Merrick or was kicked out, I was in VH for god sake!

NO ONE should ever leave or be kicked out of Merrick!! That would be something to cry over, seriously. ;)
