Diary Room:
The diary room is where houseguests will talk about anything they want about the game in privacy. You will be the only houseguest that has access to your DR. You are required to post confessionals each round, and if you fail to do so, you will not be allowed to participate in the following HOH competition. Failing to do so often enough will lead to expulsion from the game. If you happen post conversations, make sure to turn your timestamps off or edit them out when posting them in your DR. Also, if you have an alliance that you form and you want a board for you all, just ask and we will create one for you. Just make sure to use it.
Competitions:
You will also have a deadline in which challenges are due, and challenges submitted after the deadline will not be counted. Most challenge will be 24 hour time limit and we will go by that if the time is not stated. I'm pretty lenient on 24-hour challenge if you have a legitimate reason as to why you will be a little late. Just let me know beforehand or else I won't grant it. Some challenges will be held in sessions where you will need to get with a staff member on AIM one on one. We will also sometimes have live competitions where all houseguests need to be present. It is very difficult to get everyone on at the same time so if we can't get 100% attendance we will just make sure the majority of houseguests are present. Sorry, but certain competitions require the live aspect, plus it's more intense. Failing to compete in competitions often enough will lead to expulsion.
Head of Household:
Each week, the houseguests will compete for the title of Head of Household. Free from the threat of eviction, the HOH is responsible for nominating two houseguests for eviction. All nominations for eviction once made are final. The outgoing HOH is ineligible to win the next HOH.
Power of Veto:
The Power of Veto winner can choose to remove one of the Head of Household's nominations from the chopping block, including themselves. The winner is also protected from becoming a replacement nominee for the week. If the veto holder chooses to remove a nominee, the current HOH must choose a replacement nominee. Only six houseguests will compete for the Power of Veto.
Voting:
Voting will take place in your Diary Room. You will be asked to give goodbye messages to the nominated houseguests in order for your vote to count. The nominated houseguests will not vote, and neither will the Head of Household, except in the event of a tie, in which he or she will break it.
Once a vote is cast, it can be changed up until all votes have been cast. If you end up changing your vote, I would appreciate you telling me through PM or on AIM. If you fail to vote three times total over the course of the game, you will be removed from the game. If you know you are going to be offline for a long period of time, leave a list of the people remaining in the game in order from the person you would most like to evict to the person you would least like to evict.
Failing to vote or give proper goodbye messages to BOTH nominees will result in you not participating in the following Head of Household competition.
Evicted Players:
If evicted from the game, please do not give information to players still in the game that could alter the outcome of the game in any way. You are also not allowed to discuss things that have been said in the Losers' Lounge or influence active houseguests in any way. Doing so will disqualify you from returning to future games and could lose you your juror spot if you have it.
Accounts:
Houseguests are forbidden from giving their AIM or board passwords to other players. During the duration of the game, you are not permitted to give another player access to your account or to log onto another player's account. That can expelled you from the game/series.
Quitting:
If a houseguest decides to quit the game or has to be removed, that houseguest will forfeit their jury spot. If a houseguest who is not nominated for eviction quits or is expelled, the eviction will still take place and 2 people will leave that week. If a nominated houseguest quits or has to be expelled, the eviction will be canceled. The HOH's duties will be considered over and a new HOH competition will be played. If the HOH quits or has to be removed from the game, the eviction will also be canceled.
Signatures:
Please make sure to have a signature that is a decent length and height. I forbid the use of gifs in your signatures as it tends to crash boards. I will remove them from your signature if I see them.
Overall:
All competitions and twists have been pre-planned and it is your job to overcome them. Remember that this is an online game. I host to make the game enjoyable for you. I promise I am not rigging the game for anyone in any way. I will have people I like more than others, but I usually love anyone who ends up becoming the eventual winner. Thank you for participating and good luck in the game.
