One of the most popular games on the forum has returned. The big brother game where all 43 songs will compete against each other trying to stay in the game and hoping for NO votes.
The game is full of drama and excitement where on a daily basis songs are being eliminted left and right until we have our winner.
The most recent winners
2007 - Serbia
2008 - Slovenia
2009 - Azerbaijan
2010 - Germany
RULES
1. In order for your votes in the poll to count a minimum post count of 10 is required. That's not a high number so check out our forum and contribute to our success. There is a reason behind this rule so complaining about it won't make it go away.
2. Every member can cast 1 vote per round. Please vote out the song that you wanna eliminate (so don't vote for your favorite unless you have a unique strategy)
3. At the end of each round the songs/countries with the highest number of votes will be nominated and are up for eviction.
4. BIG NEW TWIST! PLEASE READ We are introducing a new thing called "Head of Household". The Head of Household has the power to nominate one song/country for eviction bringing up the total number of nominees to 3. The HoH can nominate any country that is in the running.
The HoH will be determined by a random draw held every day. Check the thread for more information.
5. The three nominated songs are up for eviction. At the end of the round the entry with the highest number of votes will be eliminated from the game.
6. Once we reach finals the "Power of Veto" will be brought back which created a lot of excitement and drama last year . This is a really important power cause the one who has the veto can save one of the nominated songs nullifying its votes.
7. The last song standing will be crowned "Big Brother 2011"
STRATEGY GUIDE
1. There is no rule on who you should or should not vote for but voting for your least favorite could be actually hurt some of your favorites at times so just consider some of the strategical suggestions I'm throwing out there.
2. You are not required to reveal your votes in the thread but you are allowed to share your vote and encourage members to vote with you.
3. Check the thread on who people vote for that could give you an indication who is in danger and who is not (of course you never know as the majority of players do not reveal their votes).
4. Base your vote on voting patterns and trends.
Example: You hate Germany's entry and also dislike the Slovenian song. While you'd rather see Germany go it may be a better idea to vote for Slovenia first if you can see a lot of members wanna get rid of it first. If you have a feeling Germany will not get enough votes you may just be throwing your vote away so maybe going for a different song until the opportunity arises to get rid of Germany would be the smart thing to do.
5. Get with your friends and buddies and vote in groups to increase your chances to nominate/evict a song (rules of the game and board still apply)
6. Don't forget that the HoH (and Pov later on) play a big part in this game so be sure to use them wisely if you have this unique power instead of just throwing it away by nominating something you know won't go home at this point.
These are just a few things to think about but there are so many possibilities in this game, you just never know what's going to happen. One thing you know for sure is that it's going to be EXCITING. While this board is trying to keep Drama off the forum this is the only time of the year (and the only thread) where we encourage it as long as the board rules are being followed.
