Big Blogger 2007: Only a Game

Only a Game

Big Blogger is a game. I've very much enjoyed playing. Writing the posts has been fun, I've found some new blogs to read, and I feel like I've made some new virtual friends.

I'm delighted to have made it to the final three.

But here's the thing. I know I'm not going to win. And do you know what? I'm fine with that. Because I know some far more deserving people than I haven't made it this far. What I'm not fine with, though, is people making spiteful, silly comments about vote rigging. Why bother? Is anyone really that desperate to win an online popularity contest that they'd go to such lengths? I think not, even if the means exist.

I know I'm stealing Big Blogger's thunder here, but really, people, play nice.

Honestly.

OOH. Contoversial.

Forgive me, I'm pissed. I don't know what I'm saying.

I've left an amusing comment below, in reference to what you're on about, and that's my piece well and truly said.

And as for vote rigging, don't be stupid. I heard someone say something about portals, but what the fuck are they? Donnie Darko anyone?

No, gay chatrooms and forums are the real way to go, aren't they Bob? The clincher, as they say.

That's the way to do it. Go for the pink vote. I did and that's how I became king!

Arse, wish I'd thought of that!

Actually, it's giving blow jobs to sleazy Arabian internet cafe owners.

Gay chat rooms are so last year. Besides, nobody would know how to find scubadaddyflipflopforcash on Big Blogger.

Oh shit ... did I just give away too much?

Ah, so that explains it.
The hetero vote is so obviously the year before last year...
Jigger.

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.
