The last one was a bit rubbish at times and it seemed like they were just making it up as they went along so more organisation will need to go into it for it to work better I think :)

It's such a large scale event and something the forum needs I think. With so many events planned for the Olympics and HxSS, it would be better to run it in the autumn/winter, unless it was incorporated into HxSS or something?

Isn't HxSS in August? What happens in July

"Housemates" aka forum members apply to go on Habbox Big Brother and then they get access to the Big Brother forums and everything else is taken away from them and basically they get tasks and stuff and then at the end of each week forum members vote who should be evicted. IIRC

Inseriousity; any updates as to whether this would be happening anytime soon?

lmao you are joking right, was the worst thing to happen this time 2 years ago because it was just boring and i used to still go on the other forums anyway because my brother had an account on hxf which took the point out of the whole thing

If a department wants to organise it, I won't stop them but I won't be organising it myself. You'd have ask brandon; as it's most likely to be a forum dept. thing. I know there are a few mods who are interested :)

Yeah there has been discussion between us, my concerns personally are can we pull it off. It would be an awful shame to put a lot of effort into this for it not to pay off :(

Think it would depend who wanted to go in it? If a manager wanted to would they have the same chance as a normal member as they would need to manage their department?

lol for once, i agree with you shaz. the problem is that it can only really be considered "fun" for the people who are actually taking part. i'd have no interest in watching people post or voting people out so it only focuses on a select group of people - the prizes could be put into something else. i also think it encouraged bullying; forum members ganged up on certain people just for the heck of it, and housemates targetted others in an attempt to make the watching audience laugh (when it was pretty embarrassing and cringeworthy really).

it's not something i'm even remotely interested in, sadly.

Not really interested in. Like Mathew said it's only entertaining for people who are actually playing the game, otherwise you're just sitting around watching people.. not really interested in seeing it come back. Mind you, I was never here for the old Big Brother games Habbox put on so I don't know what they were like.

It will need to be planned and organised fully otherwise it will end up being a disaster. It's too late to do it this year but we can do it next year if there's enough interest.

Am I right in saying it will be a forum Big Brother? (If so, that's epic!)

And how long do these things take to be planned and organise? I did a forum one with GoldenMerc about 6 years ago, and that only took me like a week to set everything up, and that was me on my own...

A forum based one yeah, unless another department wants to do it on client. :P

I was never involved with it previously but tasks have to be created, forums have to be created, contestants have to be picked, etc. It's not something we'll be thinking about until next year though.

Yeah realistically it won't take a lot of time to set up (they only have to look back at old threads etc to find out how it was run and copy and paste rules etc)... It's not also "too late in the year" lol, it doesn't have to be run along the real thing since hardly anybody even watches that now. It could be run anytime, but since its coming up to Christmas, it would be better for something else to be done (provided the creativity is there from the forum management) as the quizzes are getting a little boring lol.

Forums could easily be done within a day, right? Unless forum managing has changed drastically since I last had a go, and the tasks could easily be done within a week, it's just the contestant applications that would take some time. A competition like this would be most popular when people are off on holiday anyway, so just after Christmas wouldn't be too bad.

Takes a week for me to be able to log in to AdminCP.

Ps. I'm joking

I agree with this, quite a significant portion of the forum don't use Habbo, whereas everyone on here uses HxF ;)

after christmas sounds good though, agreeing with the points that it doesn't take long to prepare and that it shouldn't conflict/overun christmas events

Yes it is too late in the year. We're mid November, Christmas events are coming up in December so we wont be doing it until next year.

Forum big brother sounds great tbh, yeah don't do it on the client. Not enough of the good characters play it!

can't wait to see this return next year :) Was so fun helping to organise it last time and being 'little brother'! Something for the forum folk, rather than the habbo folk and if done properly can be extremely fun for all!
