BigBrother IV [G][MA]

[Little_Pikachu]

Hi guys! I'm Rambunctious Jamirus' replacement ^_^ I love you, Big Brother

Cheese is in the fridge, Si. I look forward to playing with everyone

[GreenShirT]

YAY Suzie! welcome to the house!!!!!!!!

We are all relaxing in the hot tub at the moment, or atleast should be (that means you!) and our pets are roaming freely. Over there is Puwall the chimp...that is all.

[Fai D. Flowright]

I guess that makes me the replacement for Kyl3. I'm glad to be here! This should be a lot of fun and I can't wait!

Separate from game: I won't be able to post all too much in the next few days. We've just had a death in the family and everything at my house is very hectic. Once things get to calm down and I have more computer time again, I'll be a little more involved! ^_^;

[Little_Pikachu]

Pets, huh? Well I guess I'll bring the legendary Kitty!

Oh, looks like kitty hat yuo

[Kris]

Suzie darling!

Welcome!!!!

Well is this gonna get started sometime soon????

[cd]

hello i am the last replacement.

it's 7:36am. have to go to school now. bye.

[Zak]

This is BigBrother...

Welcome, replacements. Originals, I apologize for the delay. We are starting for real now, and your first task is about to be announced.

First Task

Some of you may be familiar with this, some may not. Your first task will be to simply make a site about the BigBrother IV cast, which must fit the standards I will explain below.

-Logo
-Good theme
-A little information about every housemate
-A theme song with creative lyrics, mentioning everyone
-A WAV or AVI or MIDI or any audio file of one of the housemates singing the song
-At least TWO of the following five things:
A. BB Quiz
B. Message Board with 25 members at least
C. Something about the last three BigBrother's (i.e. comparing yourselves or whatever, or a recap)
D. A flash game or two
E. Something CREATIVE of your choice that has not been done before

Bets are to be placed by Tuesday morning EST. Otherwise, BigBrother will be forced to pick it himself. You have got a week to complete this task.

Good luck to you all, and BigBrother is watching...

[Kris]

Crikey this is quite hard!

O.K I can make the logo and can sing the song for you. Just please make the song to fit another tune that is well known!

Umm Im not sure if we can do this, depepnds on how much everyone else can do!

EDIT: I think A and B should be the easiest to do!

BB is the quiz on tpm bb or the real bb??

[Zak]

This is BigBrother...

TPM BB, and its current members or its past. But of course it is optional as arre the other four.

[RedStarWarrior]

Kris, I would like to work on the logo though. Perhaps we could work together? AIM: ravenadonis

Anyway, what information do you think we should do for the little about each of us. I suggest real first name, gender, age, country of residence, and one hobby. I will do mine as an example.

Real First Name: Scott
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Country of Residence: United States of America
One Hobby: Working on computers.

Also, for theme, what about a Big City theme? *shrugs* I am not sure exactly what Big Brother means by theme. Perhaps he means a color scheme?

[Zak]

This is BigBrother...

By "theme" I mean the extra background that goes beyond the general outline. Could be color scheme, could be pattern (i.e. flowery welcoming, hardcore, and whatnot), could be background noise... anything attracting in the background is a "theme".

[Little_Pikachu]

This will be easy if we all chip in! For the options, a quiz and a message board (we can easy have a quick Ezboard, I'm sure we could get people to join) would probably be the best bet. Kris, if you can name a tune, I can write some lyrics. Parodies are my specialty And as for information, good idea, Scott. We should all post our information now.

Real First Name: Suzie
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Country of Residence: England
One Hobby: Getting drunk

[Wolfsong]

Can't stay on long, expecting a phone call. ^^ Or at least hoping for it too ^^; Anyways, for the options, I also like the ideas of the message board and quiz. Anyway, here is my information.

Real First Name: Amy
Gender: Female
Age: 24
Country of Residence: United States of America
One Hobby: Writing

[GreenShirT]

Real First Name: Simon
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Country of Residence: England
One Hobby: Clubbing

As for logo, take your pick:

A - http://www.angelfire.com/dragon/simond/BB.txt

B - http://www.angelfire.com/dragon/simond/BB_Logo.txt

I already have an ezboard that is no longer in use that we can use.

As for the site and its color scheme I think either myself or Suzie should do that as we made a presentation and it was the sexiest looking scheme I have ever seen.

[EVme15]

Real First Name: Kayla
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Country of Residence: United States of America
One Hobby: Making Anime Music Videos (AMVs)

Wow, we've got a lot of mods/not-normal-members in this one, don't we?

I've asked Big Brother, and if we want to do a comparison-style quiz, that will work for this. I can make one of those easily.
Is it alright if I do that? I can make up a quiz questions thing and send it out to everyone via PM...

Or if you don't want me to do that and wish to throw me onto some other part of this task, I'm fine with that too. I'll do whatever.

I like the first logo better than the second.

EDIT: We need to pick a betting percentage... anyone?

[Fai D. Flowright]

I agree with EVme about the logo; the first pic is much more interesting and just plain cooler to look at! ^_^

And I also agree that A and B (Quiz and Msg Board) would be the more simpler and less intense ones to start with...

Whoever is working on the quiz, I would be willing to help in writing up questions and formating them for the webpage! ^_^

Oh, and here's my little form thing for my info:

Real First Name: Tony
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Country of Residence: U.S. of A.
One Hobby: Collecting and playing RPGs of any kind!

[RedStarWarrior]

I can't see your images, Si. What file type are they truly, since you saved them as .txt's?

[PancaKe]

Betting - what do you guys think about 60% bet for the money? (Big brother - thats not official, dont serioulsy go by that!!!)

My info :

Real First Name: Tara
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Country of Residence: Australia
One Hobby: Talking

I'd say we can go with the first picture because one, its funky, and two, its already been made . Geting members for an ezboard should be easy, a lot of us have old ezboard accounts from the days of the temp tpm board (mine is MistyDeeDee), and we could just quickly make one with one forum or so. *shrugs* Or we could use the old one Simon has.

What do you guys think about having a black and silver and white theme for the website? We could have a black background, and then silver frames for the text and white writing *shrugs* and a menu to the left side or something. Oh yeah, and what about putting photos of ourselves up there?

[cd]

uh

name. steve
gender. male
country. australia
city. melbourne
age. 15
hobby. being 2kewl

as for 2 of the 5 options, i think the message board would be easy. and also we could make some shitty comic about bb like what ozandrew did a while back for the 'new creative' thing. guys am i right.

[GreenShirT]

They were jpg, Scott.
The color scheme I had in mind was similar to the Argentine flag in colors. When I find a picture I will show you or if Suzie has one she can.

[Bulbasaur4]

^^

Hey, I can make the layout!! I think it would be cool if we had the Big Brother Logo on one opening page, and then when you click it, it leads to the 'home' part of the site.
I can make the layout almost anyway you'd like... (*ish so happy she just took a html editing class*) If you need an example here:
www.angelfire.com/vamp/darkspike/von1.html

That's an example of the picture intro, and then leading to the main home part of the site. ^^

If you like that stuff, just tell me the colors (silver and black I heard. ^^) and any extra stuff you need and I'll be editing it and posting it here as you guys do until we've got the final format we want. I'll be uploading the site to angelfire in a seperate account that I can make... if that's alright. ^^;

Also, I think the quiz is a great idea. No complaints here on that! I think it would be a good idea.

Simon, I think the first one is the best of your logos. ^^ Color RULLLES!

Now fer muh form...

Real First Name: Kalah
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Country of Residence: United States of America
One Hobby: Taking pictures, mostly of NaTuRe and other pointless things.

[Kris]

Ill have a go at a logo at some point so we can see which one we like but only got time to pop on the computer tonight.

Suzie, make it a popular one! And one that I can hear by someone sending it to me or something!!

[Craig]

Real First Name: Craig
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Country of Residence: Canada
One Hobby: Photography

I could help write the song 8)

[RedStarWarrior]

I, too, will take a shot at the logo. Also, I am very fluent in several internet languages, especially HTML and javascript. I can go over your basic design, B4, and spruce it up some.

[VaporeAct]

Sorry that my info took so long! Here's my info:

Real First Name: Myste
Gender: Male
Age: 14
Country of Residence: United States
One Hobby: Video games

I could probably help with the message board if I could get what we needed on it. (I've never really done this before)

[PancaKe]

What about the quiz? I'll make a quiz, if somebody helps me come up with the questions - because I can't really remember that much about past Big brothers.

[Little_Pikachu]

At the risk of Big Brother choosing our stake for us (final decision was supposed to be now!), I'm going to say we put 80% on this task and unless anyone decides otherwise inbetween me posting this and Zak seeing this, that's our final answer ^_^

[Zak]

This is BigBrother...

You have bet 80% on this task.

Also, please start sending nominations now via PM or IM. My AIM address is Yoyo238.

BigBrother is watching...

[Kris]

Real First Name: Kris
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Country of Residence: United Kingdom
One Hobby: Skiing

As Ive said Im happy to sing the sing when I get my voice back (sore throat at mo) and Ill take a shot at the logo.

If we do a message board I can help rounding up the members!

[Kris]

O.K heres my attempt at the logo, what do you reckon?

[GreenShirT]

We need to sort this out, what are we doing and who is doing what?

As I understand it we are making:

- Website (logo, design..)
- A song and Midi
- Message Board
- and something else ???

Right well we have plenty of logo designs and any of those are fine so no one else needs to do these.

Is Kris going to sing the lyrics?

http://p201.ezboard.com/bbb4board - There is a message board ready to be set up, if anyone has forum ideas or wants to manage it I will give them the login details, contact me on AIM (simon0dewhurst)

Who wants to do a website? If no one wants to I dont mind.

[Kris]

O.K, we need to decide what logo to use.

Best way to do this is to get everyone to vote,

here are the choices:

SELECTION A:
http://www.iphq.net/uploads/bb4.jpg

SELECTION B:
http://www.angelfire.com/dragon/simond/BB.txt

SELECTION C:
http://www.angelfire.com/dragon/simond/BB_Logo.txt

So everyone please vote! If I've missed any out please let me know.

I Vote for A,

Votes So Far

A - 1
B - 0
C - 0



Si - Great board, Ive signed up! Ill sing the song if someone writes it, make it funny!!

[cd]

A looks nice, i can't see B and C, for some reason i don't think they were supposed to be saved as .txt's

[Fai D. Flowright]

I can't decide between A or B because I like them both... But I'll have to go with A. I just think it's much more flowing and it fits the current colors of the Message Board.

BTW, PancaKe, I'd be willing to help you make a quiz! I don't know much on past BigBrothers either, but I'm sure the two of us could pull some stuff together...

Hey BB, if we do a Quiz is there any minimum for the number of questions we need on it?

[Zak]

This is BigBrother...

Hey BB, if we do a Quiz is there any minimum for the number of questions we need on it?

No. Just make sure all other aspects of the site stand out.

[GreenShirT]

My vote goes with B, if you can't see it try copying and pasting the link. Here is a JPG one for those of you who still cant see that...

http://www.angelfire.com/dragon/simond/BB.JPG

(yes the txt one will still work...)

Any takers for the website yet then?

[VaporeAct]

I vote for A. The others don't really stand out to me at all.

As for the forums Si, I could probably help break those up. I'll have to PM you though.

[RedStarWarrior]

I didn't even get to submit my image yet. Dirty rascals doing things while I am at work....

[Bulbasaur4]

Alrighty... I've got it ALL figured out. Mwhahahaa... or at least, if you guys think it is alright.


I'll make the home page and I've also already got an angelfire account so we can put up the pages and images into that to create a website.

My idea is, Scott, since you didn't get to update your logo and you wanted to help with the home page with me, here is what I think. How about everyone email Scott their pieces of the website? So if you made a quiz, give him the html format for it or if it was created with another site give him the url. Same for the forums and images and everything. Maybe if he wants, he can just piece everything together?

If you want to Scott, then I'll give you the website and the password to access it. ^^

[Wolfsong]

I like option A for the logo. Sorry ihavent' been on much lately. Is there anything that i can actually do. I would like to help and all but I'm a little unsure as of what i can do. ^^;
