TPM Big Brother IV
Created by shazza

This is BigBrother...

Welcome housemates!

The Summary
You have been chosen by BigBrother into the house, you are now in a house with 11 other people and you may have viewed the past two (3) BigBrothers before you, and you may know how BigBrother operates, or you may be new, you may have never viewed this before and you would like to know what to do, well read down before for what to do and some information you will need. There will be only one house once again, given that the double house in BB3 was a failure.

The Calendar
This is the calendar that usually happens, unless BigBrother says otherwise, as there could be a surprise.

(This is US times, given that I, Zak, am from the US).

Monday
- Continue posting your nominations if haven't done so.
- Your weekly task is announced. (see Weekly Task for more details, not the first week).

Tuesday
- Nominations closed for housemates, and nominations up for this week, if you haven't voted, you will get 2 points against your name (see Nominating/Evicting for more details).
- HouseMates to continue on with task.

Wednesday
- HouseMates to continue on with task.

Thursday
- HouseMates to continue on with task.

Friday
- HouseMates to continue on with task.

Saturday
- Task is finished, you will find out if you succeeded or lost. (see Weekly Task for more details)

Sunday
- Someone is evicted. (see Nominating/Evicting for more details)
-Post your nominations for this week.

Note: Housemates are allowed to have social conversations as well, this is self implyed, but just to make sure.

Weekly Task
Housemates are required to do a weekly task, and all housemates should participate, if a housemate does not participate, that is not BigBrother's problem to fix, you may fix that by nominating him or her. Once you have been told to do what task to do, BigBrother will ask you, "How much prize money will you bet this week?". You start off with $100,000, and if you bet 80%, if you win, you get $180,000, if you lose, it goes down to $20,000. Or if you bet 100% and you win, it goes to $200,000, if you lose, it goes down to $0. The winner of BB2 will collect the prize money, while others leave with nothing.

Nominating/Evicting
Once it is time to nominate, all housemates are required to pm me, and tell me who you will nominate for two points, and who will nominate for 1 point. and you must have a valid reason for both of them, if not, you will have one mark against your name (see marking for more details) The top three people with the most points, will be up for eviction. If you still do not get the 2 point and 1 point system, 2 points is the person you want out most, and 1 point is the person you want out second most. For eg:

Jill: I nominate John for 2 points and 1 point for Jack
Jack: I nominate James for 2 points and Jill for 1 point
James: I nominate 2 points to jack and for 1 point I will nominate John
John: I nominate 2 points to Jack and 1 point to James

Jill: 1 point
Jack: 5 points
James: 3 points
John: 3 points

Therefore, Jack, James and John are up for eviction.

If you do not nominate someone when you are told, and the time runs out, you will get a mark against your name (see marking for more details), unless before, you tell BigBrother you are away. Once the nominations are up, the members of TPM shall vote for who they want out of the house.

The Topics
BigBrother: This is the house for the housemates that were accepted, and the center of it all. Only the housemates can post in there.
BigBrother Evictions: This topic is for TPMers to vote for who they want out, unlike the first two BigBrothers, housemates can view this topic.
BiGBrother Evicted: This is for the evictee, who answers a series of questions by BigBrother, unlike the first two BigBrothers, housemates can view this topic.



BigBrother will not accept these kind of nominating, unless they have a really good justification for it that somehow connects to the game and the house.

"I nominate ??? for ? points points because I don't know who else to vote for"
-Then find out, look at peoples posts etc.
"I nominate ??? for ? points because I hate him/her the most"
-Why do you hate them? What reasons posssed you to hate them?
"I nominate ??? for ? points because he/she is gay"
-Why is he/she gay, and by gay I assume you mean annoying. What kind of things made him/her annoying.
"I nominte ??? for ? points because I think he/she voted for me!"
-How do you know that, and even if you know that for a fact, that still isn't a good reason.
