EXTRA RULES:

1) You may not include, or hint, at who you are with your submission. Please make your submissions as ‘anonymous’ as possible, to prevent the judges from knowing who submitted which portfolio.

2) You may spend your budget any way you see fit. If you wish to spend $1100 on one submission, and $100 on the rest, that is completely fine.

3) In the event of a tie, the winner will be whoever was ranked FIRST on most lists. If there is still a lie, it will go down to who was ranked SECOND on more lists. If the tie is identical all the way through, we will contact the judge(s) who ranked the tied players FIRST, and ask them to pick which individual piece of furniture is their favourite from any tied submissions.

4) You MUST MUST MUST supply the hosts will all links to the furniture you choose, even if you do not use them in your official portfolio submissions. These must be submitted so that we can double check pricing, and make sure you do not go over budget.

5) You are not required to submit a portfolio for all clients, if you choose not to. You will, by default, rank last on that client’s list, but you can increase your budget on the other rooms.

6) You may not submit partial portfolios. You must either submit no portfolio for a client, or a portfolio with four pieces of furniture.

7) Please do not discuss your selections or portfolios with other players! We don’t want everyone picking the same chair, so keep your ideas to yourself!



YOUR SUBMISSIONS ARE DUE ON SATURDAY, MARCH 24TH AT 2PM EST. We extended the time to allow for more extensive submissions, and to give the judges a few hours to do their rankings. Results will be given at 8pm EST later that day.
over 6 years
The four clients will rank all submissions for their dream room from favourite to least favourite. Scoring will work as so:

Favourite Submission For Their Room: +5pts
Second Favourite Submission: +4pts
Third and Fourth Favourite Submission: +3pts
Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Favourite Submission: +2pts
Eighth, Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh Favourite Submission: +1pts

The player who ends with the HIGHEST POINT TOTAL will win the Head of Household!

The Outgoing HoH will participate in this challenge, but will not be eligible to win. In the event their submission is the winning submission, we will, with their knowledge, alter their submission to replace items and thus lower their score.

The absolute minimum you must submit would be something that looks like this:

Client #1

Item 1: [INSERT LINK HERE]
Item 2: [INSERT LINK HERE]
Item 3: [INSERT LINK HERE]
Item 4: [INSERT LINK HERE]

For all four clients.

However, you are welcome to present your portfolios in any way you would like. Images like https://i.imgur.com/zf7wHyl.png , or written scrips/stories/proposals are 100% permitted.

The clients will be asked to order their submissions only by the four pieces of furniture you choose meet their taste and wants. However, if you decide to add text or images to the submission, perhaps you can sell them as to why the furniture you picked is perfect for them!

HoH Competition

For the next Head of Household competition, you will be at the mercy of four very demanding clients. Working as interior designers, you will have to manage your money carefully, decide which requests are more important than others, and have a keen eye in order to ensure victory!

The four clients are doing heavy renovations, and are each looking to completely change the look of a particular room in their homes. Each has supplied you with the room they are looking to redo, and have filled out a small questionnaire to better let you know their personalities.

Using this limited information, and a TOTAL budget of $1400, you are required to present a portfolio to each of the clients with a total of FOUR PIECES OF FURNITURE you have selected for their remodelings. You can pick any type of furniture that you desire, and you can be as imaginative as possible with what you want to define as furniture. For example, if a client was doing over a dentist’s waiting room, you can select anything from chairs to desks, from magazine racks to pencil holders, or even things like plant decor or welcome mats. The four items you choose can be whatever you want, as long as you think it will meet your clients needs and would “go” with that room type.

Of course, as you are in Sweden, you will be selecting your furniture from the beautiful line of products available from Ikea! You will use this link [THE USA WEBSITE!!] to do all of your browsing!

[12:20:00 AM] agus strider: You are feeling overwhelmed with this heat and lack of vision. You’re not sure what is going on around you, but with anonymous week ending, you hope that the effects of the Bermuda Triangle are going to fade. Sure enough, as though a switch has been flicked, your vision clears and you feel blinded by the sudden light. You look outside at the beautiful, palm tree filled beaches of the Bahamas and feel awed, however this is not to last as the familiar feeling of the plane streaming down the runway leaves you pressed against your seat.
[12:20:16 AM] Ohdearmycatisgone: Tldr

[12:17:25 AM] bone: The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius is my favorite show to ever be produced and released for public viewing. As a spin-off of the 2001 movie Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius – which was nominated for an Academy Award but lost to Shrek, by the way. Shrek did not deserve to win over Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius. There. I said it. Fight me – it should not have been nearly as good as it was. The heartwarming program followed the antics of ten-year-old genius James “Jimmy” Isaac Neutron, his robot dog (!!!) Goddard, and Jimmy’s two best friends Sheen Estevez and Carl Wheezer. Jimmy, being the genius inventor he was, often got them into trouble with such issues as meteor strikes and living pants.
Keeping in mind that Jimmy is the direct cause of all of the perils faced throughout the show and faces no consequences beyond being grounded temporarily, one may argue that this show is “unrealistic” and “bad”. One would be absolutely wrong, and can fight me. Also, Carl Wheezer is objectively the best character written for any form of media. Fight me on that as well.
Please don’t get me started on the masterpieces that are the Jimmy-Timmy Power Hours.
Thank you for your time.

[12:11:31 AM] Natacha: For players that like to play in defence and endurance, I would pick pokemon number 197!
Generation 2, that is right Umbreon!
According to bulbapedia data, it is possible to conclude that Umbreon, comparing to the other evolutions has a decent amount of HP (bigger than majority of the others evolutions), high defence (same as Leafeon), and a high special on defence (same as Sylveon),
making this pokemon perfect to resist, it's immune to psychic and resistant to ghost and dark types, it is only weak to fairy, bug and fighting.
Therefore if defence is your type of play then pick Umbreon.

[12:06:11 AM] rctnk99:
Pepsi Max may just seem like an ordinary diet soda, but it’s honestly a good deal more than that. Like Coke Zero, Pepsi Max has the right combination of sweeteners to get the best flavor possible out of it. Right away that puts it above everything that has that nasty aspartame aftertaste. It’s also packed with caffeine, so there’s an actual reason to drink it instead of wasting your money on those disgusting energy drinks, or having to drink 3 or 4 of some other diet soda just to get the same effect. Overall I’d put it at the top of my list for diet sodas, narrowly beating out Coke Zero simply because I prefer Pepsi.

[10:25:31 PM] Ally: Date: March 19th, 2018
Location: The Bahamas (NAS)
Time: 2130

Welcome, houseguests, to your next Power of Veto competition.

Playing in this veto will be the anonymous HoH, Schikgil, MajesticTerrapin, and 3 anonymous players selected by random draw. These anonymous players are NOT ALLOWED to tell anyone they’ve been chosen. The people selected will be contacted in their Diary Room.

For this competition, you’re going to break out your inner meteorologists in Feel The Heat!

You will complete this in your Diary Room. When you choose to compete, you will be given a series of 10 temperature patterns with blanks in them. The patterns will be of varying difficulty. Your task will be to determine the pattern and fill in the missing intervals.

Example:
1°, 3°, 5°, _____°, 9°
Answer: Add 2 each time, 7

You will receive 1 point for every correct identified pattern, and 1 point for every correctly filled blank. Whoever has the highest score will win the Power of Veto and have the opportunity to remove a nominee from the chopping block. In the event of a tie, the deciding factor will be time.

As this is anonymous week, there are a few additional details to add. First of all, you may not discuss this competition, at all, in any capacity, with anyone. Second of all, in the event that the Power of Veto is won by someone other than the two nominees, is used to save one of them, and the HoH attempts to renominate the PoV holder, they WILL be informed that they are not allowed to nominate that person. They will not be permitted to share this information with anyone, and the PoV holder will not be informed that the HoH tried to nominate them.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask in your Diary Room. The randomly selected participants of the veto will be contacted shortly to be informed that they’re playing. The players will have until 10pm ET tomorrow, March 20th, to COMPLETE this challenge.

[10:23:25 PM] Ally: As you sit in darkness, the pilot’s voice comes over the intercom. “Fear not, everyone. Our technicians are working on the darkness, and we are approaching our next destination; it’s a hot one, so get ready!”

[10:23:47 PM] Ally: You wait in silent darkness, nervously anticipating where you’ll end up next. Finally, the plane descends, and you all start to fidget, anxiously wondering when you’ll be allowed to leave. As you wait to file off the plane, you feel heat begin to permeate the air, and wonder where you’ve ended up.
[10:24:07 PM] Ally: A voice comes over the speaker again. “Everyone, please remain seated. As we don’t want any injuries, everyone will be remaining on the plane until we get the lights back up. We will happily inform you of your location, though; welcome, everyone, to the Bahamas!”
[10:25:06 PM] MajesticTerrapin: cool
