Big Blogger 2007: Back to the grindstone

Back to the grindstone

It's hard working being Big Blogger you know.

One minutes it's all "I love you BB!" and the next it's all "I want to kill your first born BB!". And if that's not enough I have to live with the guilt and sadness that evicting all you lovely (and not so lovely) people brings.

Then I have to come up with all these splendid tasks, get the poll sorted out, keep an eye on everything, make sure the design and the sidebar are up to date, read everything, comment a bit, keep you all in your place AND make time to have half a bottle of rum and a couple of cubans every night. Cigars that is, cigars.

Life is hard, I can tell you.

Anyway, it's the last week, we're down to five, and it's task time yet again.

"For your first (and possibly last) task this week, given what's happening in the midlands at the moment and seeing how ordinary people are becoming heroes in the face of such terrible adversity, Big Blogger wants you all to reflect for a moment and tell us about the most heroic thing you've ever done. Simple as that."

The deadline for this task is Thurdsay evening at 9pm. There is a new poll going up in a few minutes, and by Thursday at 9pm (yes, definitely 9pm - I'm not adding an extra half hour on again) we will know who the last two evictees from the house will be and who therefore will be left in the final three. So once it's up, get voting for who you want to be kicked out. Again.

The final task will go up last thing on Thursday, and by Monday night next week we will know who is to be crowned Big Blogger 2007. WOOOO!!!

Right, I've got to shoot off. There are a couple of dusky maidens waiting in my private spa ready to give my feet a nice hearty rubbing, and stuff. Ahem.

Those Responsible

Timbo & Supply Blogger

Yes! I have an accomplice once again!

The Poll

Bollocks to the poll! It's finished!

The Concept

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!

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.
