Hey gang,
You may remember way back in the day when Urby made a TWHL Sims Project series which lasted two overly-long, but weirdly compelling episodes. It featured eight TWHLers and the sparks flew almost instantly with Urby eventually sleeping with Tosse.
Fun stuff, but not particularly accessible due to the plodding nature of the "live" feel it had, with Urby just flying around looking for things to comment on.
So I bring to you, ladies and gentlemen of TWHL, TWHL Big Brother 2012.
This will be a show in 5 min, quick cut episodes filmed in The Sims 3 in the style of a Big Brother highlights reel. It will feature silly voiceover and challenges for the houseguests to face, but as before - I will not be allowed to directly influence the Sims' actions.
Want to be one of the "lucky" eight?
Post here with a photo of your face, and an image you would like to have on your shirt. It'd also be good to know your favourite food, music genre and starsign.
I will be a member, so there are seven slots to fill. This will be fun, I promise!
TWHL Big Brother 2012

My face is all over my reviews and vlogs.
Food = Roast Chicken Dinner
Music = wub wub wub wub
Starsign = Libra
My shirt image can just be my logo or whatever. It can be made with a 3x3 pixel image and enlarged. Piece of piss.

Sounds fun, I'm up for this, that is if you want me in there.
Here's a photo of me doing my famous blue steel look, still working on my next one called "magnum":
...and here's a me standing next to a bridge:
Logo on shirt? Maybe one of these:
Favorite food: Lobster. Also I don't eat or drink unhealthy stuff like colas or sweets or burgers and stuff.
Music: Favorite would be Rock, favorite band would be Red Hot Chili Peppers. Like all music in general that is not crap like Justin Bieber or Lil Wayne.
Starsign = Leo / Lion.

Haha, I have many. I got this one when I saw them. Way late in their career to see them, but they played only old stuff and the new album at the time which was Death. Not a single friggin song off of the Black Album, Load, or Reload. Everything faster than on record, and for two and a half hours. It was a dream come true.
Worth an arm and a leg for the tickets.
Can I change my favorite food to beer?

If this thread could be locked and it was more of a "closed" show, I think I would participate.
[EDIT] Maybe.
[EDIT 2] Blitz looks terribly European. Amirite?
[EDIT 3] Skals is a sexy woman.

America has only been around a few hundred years so I can't say I'm American. That's not even an ethnicity!
You're totally right, most of me is English, Irish, Lithuanian, German, a pinch of Polish, other than a touch of South African (which is mostly Dutch immigrants from my understanding?) I basically am European.
And yet, I've never been across that ocean. I'm ashamed! I hear-by promise to visit Europe in my lifetime.
Skals looks like a stranger I would run into and then get flat-out drunk off Vodka with if I ever visited eastern Europe.
This thread needs more faces. We should have a "Post your face or be a pussy" thread to build camaraderie amongst the TWHLers.

I agree with Archie, moar photos. Photo should be required if you want to be a Sim. [edit: ok maybe that's too far, I can respect privacy]
It's a good thing! Seeing the person behind the username and the text really humanizes everyone. Text and a username doesn't really cut it, for all I know TWHL could consist of the people whose photos I've seen over the years and an AI robot who plays every other person on the site!

How about, if you don't provide a photo, you'll be fat, balding and have blue skin and then until the end of time, that is how everyone on TWHL will see you.
Either that or just covered in makeup and made to be the household bitch.

Ok, because we now have an excess of applicants, I used my old random number generator technique to pick the lineup. In the spirit of fairness, I even made it possible that I wouldn't be in it.
The lineup is (in order of their number appearing from the generator):
1. Dimbark
2. Joebama
3. Archie
4. Skals
5. Blitzkrieg
6. Madcow
7. Urby
8. Scotch
Terribly sorry, Hotdog, especially since you specifically said it was about time you participated in something like this. If it proves popular, I'll run another "series" that you'll have the #1 slot in.
I've built the house so I'll start creating your Sims tomorrow.
There will be a voting process involved where TWHLers will get to choose who gets punished or rewarded. Punishments could be, for example, having an inaccessible stereo constantly blaring music in their bedroom preventing them sleeping or something more sinister like being starved. I can't control the sims, but I can control their environment.
Sims will be sealed in the house and will not be allowed to leave until they're all dead or crazy... Or voted off.
Episodes will be weekly.

But no worries, looking forward to it and definately dishing out some punishment for making me miss out. mwahaha!

I wonder if I could actually have more than eight participants... There's a maximum of 8 sims in a 'family', but I could create more than one family and have them all trapped in the house. It shouldn't have any problematic effect since I never control the sims directly anyway... I'll look into it.

A fixed number of 8 is not fair for others. More slots!
