1) The housemate with the most votes this week will take on the duties of Big Blogger. This housemate will be responsible for setting the tasks, as well as deciding which way the wind blows with the weekly poll.
2) Sticking with the theme of the lunatics taking over the asylum. In the absence of Little Blogger, one of the housemates will be in charge of the Diary Room and grant requests for parties and visiting slebs. This person will be elected by his or her fellow housemates and will change on a weekly basis.
3) All posts written in both the Diary Room and the main forum will be given the title of a Smiths song.
4) As I am single, and frankly, a bit sick of it, all housemates will introduce me to an eligible suitor, complete with a photograph and mini CV. A poll will be held to decide on the most appropriate chap and a virtual date will be held, for which Big Blogger will provide copious amounts of booze and fantastic food. It would help if this person lived in Scotland.
5) Due to Katy leaving and taking her fabulous flashing navel ring with her, I’m a bit concerned that the prizes for winning this thing will be proper bobbins. So. Every housemate needs to think of another prize for the lucky winner.
6) One happy housemate will be permitted to invite a friend into the Big Blogger house for a week. This person will be a guest only, and not eligible to win, but they will be expected to participate in any tasks set during that period.
7) When anyone addresses me, they will be required to say “Beautiful, lovely Cat” before speaking. This is just to make me feel good because I woke up this morning with two big spots on my chin and don’t feel very beautiful or lovely at all.
I realise rules should come in blocks of ten, but I can’t think of any more. But aren’t these good ones?
Vote for me and let’s make ‘em happen!

Please, please don't give Cat the power!!! I would have no hope at following these rules!!
Welcome to the home of Big Blogger 2007. For the next eight weeks or so we will be watching (well, reading) the housemates as they complete their tasks, eake out a meagre existence, and do everything in their power to convince you, the blogging public, that they should be the ones to win the title of Big Blogger 2007. Who will win? You decide... (I could swear I've heard that before somewhere.)
Click on this link if you require any further clarification. And in case anyone is still utterly confused, here are The Rules.
The Housemates
Check out all the freaky weirdos beautiful specimens we've caged up just for you - and all in the name of entertainment too!
And the newbies too:
The House
It's missing a library, a nail salon and a coffee bar, but other than that it's a design masterpiece. You lucky people!
The Diary Room
Little Blogger AKA Minxy is always about nowhere to be seen, and therefore she won't do you a fantastic line in body stockings. Medium-sized Blogger IS there however and he has the world record for making rollies. So GO! NOW!! Do it, before it's too late!
A Concise History
Click the links to go straight to each task and/or each particular housemate's downright ludicrous response:
If you love Big Blogger in an almost entirely non-physical way then be a good sort and whack one of these attractive Big Blogger-themed thingies into your sidebar.
Our Links
Huge thanks go to Lucy Pepper for her wonderful illustrations.
Plus, even though he's not blogging anymore, let's remember Watski for coming up with this godawful idea in the first place.
AND, if you've got 300 years spare time on your hands you could use it to re-read the whole of the original 2005 Big Blogger event. Go on, I dare you.
The only other place we should really link to is the official BIG BROTHER website. After all, they're the ones who bought the rights to the concept in the first place; we're just adjusting it for our own purposes. I'm sure they'll understand.
So if you want intellectual stimulation and laughs-a-plenty, stay right where you are. However, if you want boredom, drudgery and maybe some tits and arse, go there instead.
I know where I'm going. Okay, see you later...
Legal Mumbo-Jumbo
The idea may not be original but everything else on here is of our own making and 100% original. So don't go borrowing unless A) you link back to us, or B) you ask us really really nicely beforehand.
Please, please don't give Cat the power!!! I would have no hope at following these rules!!
Except maybe the "beautiful, lovely Cat" one!
