Return to SimBB

After an extensive hiatus, SimBB has decided to return for its 19th season!

Drama, alliances, showmances, blindsides, and more are to be expected as over 500 cameras have been set up to record the incoming houseguests. For the duration of three months, sixteen individuals will have to endure more than ever if they want to make it to the end and win the half million dollar prize.

With this return to a back to the basics, production felt it was fitting to have these theme be a return the throwbacks. Remember back when toys such as Furby as Tamagotchhi, shows such as Lizzie McGuire and That's So Raven were a big deal? Well, each of the sixteen individual characters will be considered Old School- representing nostalgic staples across the station!

Do you think your pick has what it takes to bring back the memories and win Big Brother? Tune in to Return to SimBB!

But Firsts...

  • For those who do not know, SimBB is more of a forum-based game in which people submit characters for a Big Brother simulator. After all is entered, I will be writing out an entire season in the form of a story so to speak, divided up by Episodes that represent an entire week in the game (roughly 14-15 Episodes in total)
  • Houseguests you enter must abide by the Old School Theme
  • Previously entered Houseguests may not compete. If you happen to send one in on accident, I'll allow you to resend without any setback.

For the Applications, there will be 7 attributes- Physical, Endurance and Mental will be in regards to Competition stats. Strategy, Loyalty, Social, and Temperament will be in regards to other stats. When you submit a Houseguest, you must submit with at most 24 points spread across.

Example:
Name- Spongebob
Physical: 2
Endurance: 4
Mental: 3
Strategy: 4
Loyalty: 1
Social: 5
Temperament: 5

Will be taking 8 males and 8 females! You may send a character in once every 24 hours!

Houseguests:

  1. Charlie Chaplin (nattless)
  2. Balto (ZodiacBeast)
  3. Paul McCartney (Dared)
  4. Chun-Li (MajesticTerrapin)
  5. Michael Scott (Knife)
  6. Mr. Rogers (XFire)
  7. Stephen Hawking (cosmoiswatching)
  8. Maleficent (Picante)
  9. Mai Valentine (xSoniaNeverMindx)
  10. Miss J Alexander (qrstuv)
  11. Sleeping Beauty (MonteCarrlo)

Okay my thoughts on Week 1!


Spoiler
Everyone making and backstabbing alliances Week 1 daaamn ppl need to chill. Every single person is involved in at least 1 alliance, and a ton are in more than one. And not a single one of these alliances was able to stay on point all week!

First I'll talk about the Princesses Alliance (Amy/Pink/Peach/Zelda + Aurora). This alliance was in a lot of danger this week, and they were surprisingly disloyal to each other. Peach threw them under the bus as soon as she was nommed, Zelda suggesting they blindside Aurora and then backing out, but not before Peach and Amy decided to flip as well. It's a mess and I'm not sure they'll recover after one of their main targets just won HoH.

The only alliance that seemed to be even more of a wreck was the Grandpas Alliance (Michael/Stephen/Rogers/Charlie). Michael's decision to nom Rogers is baffling and only made worse by the fact that it was Week 1 and there was a mountain of alternatives to choose from. Charlie is probably in the weakest position in the house right now, losing arguably his most loyal ally and being stuck in an alliance with the traitor of the week, Stephen Hawking, as well as Michael who appears completely incompetent.

Then there's the unnamed alliance of Amy, Balto, Chun-Li, and Pink. They're looking okay, but the strain between them after Peach revealed that Balto and Chun-Li were targets makes me think they'll be less trusting going forward.

Also Maleficent's huge alliance that has everyone else + Balto/Chun-Li seems RELATIVELY solid. But Maleficent may have a bit of a purge of allies once it's revealed some of these people voted against her



My alliance chart has been updated so keep in mind it has spoilers for what happened this week. https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1HyOZquckJUH2wwJQ52I1fe96BFobKsM-qGKVT2FaITI/edit?usp=sharing

KK my reaction to the premiere!


Spoiler
I know you do this for every season but giving each player the spotlight for a short amount of time really helped establish them and differentiate them for readers who don't know who all the characters are.

I think the biggest story of the night is Aurora and Maleficent. It'll be really interesting to see how the other players react to their relationship and potentially form alliances later on.

Also of note is how the rooms in the house are *roughly* equally filled with members. I can't tell if any strong alliances will form based on everyone's room or if it's just a red herring, but nothing will really get solidified until HoH plays out.

Other things I noticed:

Mai's social game is off to a really bad start, I see her annoying people really fast.

Mr. Rogers and Stephen Hawking is the alliance none of us knew we needed until now.

The girls in the Island Room are in trouble because everyone else either seems ambivalent or annoyed by them.



Like in the last SimBB, I'm keeping track of alliances/useful information in a google doc. You may find it useful if you can't remember every alliance/relationship. https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1HyOZquckJUH2wwJQ52I1fe96BFobKsM-qGKVT2FaITI/edit?usp=sharing

I submitted my winner pick but I'm not gonna make it public because I don't wanna jinx myself LOL. But if I learned anything from Alison, it's to pay attention to early foreshadowing!

Howdy guys! So, I want to try something different! I wrote the premiere of all of the houseguests prior to the first Head of Household Competition. Felt it would help get a feel for the characters. After you finish reading it, there is a link that asks for your flair and winner pick! More details are inside there!

I will be posting the entire first week on Saturday to give you guys time to make your flairs (which don't have to be your own characters) and winner picks!

Depending on the amount of interest, I'll throw all of the people who pick the correct winner into a hat and at the end of the season give one 20 tokens!
