TWHL Big Brother 2012 Created 12 years ago2012-07-28 17:10:55 UTC by Archie

Number one is actually Dimbark i think and number 8 is archie?

Eh, my guess is the same as Joe's, so not much point.

I'll accept the stubble represented on myself, because even if I don't like having it, I do tend to have it often because I usually can't be assed shaving

EDIT: Yes, CT, you can really see Dimbark's beard in his reference photo

I think dimbark will drown in the pool.

I look like a retard
Fair enough I guess

Can't see the similarity with the hair though, lol!

Oh God. Howled at Madcow, in the office... cheers Archie. :rly:

loool they all look silly. I think some of them are going to be hard to distinguish, but probably with the shirts it won't be a problem.

Joebama is correct.

Choose who gets punished in ep1. It won't be fatal.
Provide a reason for your choice for added lulz

Urby.

Because it's fun to piss him off.

You.

Just because.

This is not a vote. Joebama's choice is law in ep1.

First person to correctly identify all 8 sim TWHLers get to decide who receives a punishment in ep1!

That said, waaah!

Are you sure he wasn't saying "you" to Dimbark?

Lets clarify this before you trap yourself in a 1x1 room.

it is possible to join the sim project?? am i late or something? i dont have much photos of mine i have just found one of themfood: chicken
music: trance
sign: fish

Sorry mate, you're too late for this one. Don't worry, I'm sure there'll be a second series!

I've filmed day one. 65gb of footage, and a surprising end.

65GB! How does the movie-making saying go? Five hours of filming gets you five minutes of film? Something like that.

This is going to be fun.

Urby.

Because it's fun to piss him off.

Well, how bloody dare you!

Every one knows season two always beats season 1, hehe.

Awesome, cant wait for the video

damn. wish i didnt miss signing up but im DEF gonna watch

It's weird how much Archie and I look like brothers. In the Sims 3, that is.

Out of curiosity, when you said "You", Joebama, were you referring to Archie or Dimbark?

Archie.

So um... What's happening?

I have a job and 65GB of footage to edit. Actually it won't take that long, the first episode just takes longest because I'm still trying to work out the best format.

I also spent a good many hours today doing the title sequence in after effects. It's pretty pimp, if i do say so myself.

Oh you.

Oh, I forgot to say when you started, after remembering how things went when I did this: Welcome to Hell.

Welcome to Hell.

Nnnggg.
I know it'll get easier after this first episode, because this is the only episode that is very effects heavy (introducing each TWHL member) but god damn this is a lot of footage and tweaking in photoshop and AE.

I wonder what they're looking at...

Madcow. Pole dancing. Nude.

Anyway, I'm sure it'll pay off. Can't fault your editing skills as of late. Push comes to shove, we'll just have to unwind this evening with BF3 after you missed the game last night, you apocalyptic sphincter.

That sounds like me alright!

So some of you were saying in the shoutbox that you didn't know what the name Big Brother referred to. This surprised me a lot!



In the grand sense, it refers to Nineteen-Eighty-Four, a novel by George Orwell which you must read at some point in your life. It paints a picture of a terrifying world and was pretty much the sole inspiration for V for Vendetta in which a single totalitarian political party runs a country with such micro that everyone is watched at all times.
This is what Big Brother is - an entity who watches ordinary people at all times and punishes them for wrongdoing.

In a more modern sense, it was the name of a British TV show (latterly versions appeared in many, many countries including the US) in which a certain number of the British public were locked inside a house with no access to phones, internet or newspapers for a few months and filmed live 24/7 for the entirety. It was the spawn of almost all modern Reality TV.

Housemates' only contact with the outside world was through an omnipotent voice which would issue challenges and reveal results of public votes which would remove contestants from the show if they were unpopular.

If everywhere else is anything like Australia, I'm amazed no-one had heard of it. Hell, I couldn't wait for TV to shut up about it.

If everywhere else is anything like Australia, I'm amazed no-one had heard of it.

yes when they first previewed it on channel 9 i was like "nooooo!"
its kinda like jersey shore, but they cant leave the house!

1984 should be read by everyone. It's a damn good book.

Never heard about this book, so I read on wikipedia. There's a striking resemblance between 1984's plot and HL2's story.
Also:

Nineteen Eighty-Four is a dystopian novel about an oligarchical society. It was banned in communist Russia and very nearly banned in the U.S. and U.K. in the early 1960s.

I understand why it was banned in USSR, but I don't understand US and UK.

As much as I'd like to respond to that I'd not like this to turn into a political thread, let's get back on topic

How's it going Archie? Any progress?

I'm itching for this to start coming out, but I'll refrain from hassling Archie on account of him having a life and such.

But still... Nnngngnggnnn.

Would you like me to scratch that for you?

Nnngngnggnnn.

Actually guys, really sorry but I'm giving up on this. It was just too much work and I couldn't handle the pressure. I sincerely hope that none of you hate me forever now.

LOL JK HERE'S EP 1

Be sure to watch in 1080p if your net can handle it. I've not used an HD link for you low bandwidthers. This episode is slightly longer than planned and takes a while to get to the point because each TWHLer is introduced.

Special thanks to Eugene Naesmith for doing the voiceover.

Don't forget to vote for who gets punished next! Voting closes on Thursday at a non-specific time.

All I could see from the front page was the first two sentences and I was like OMGWTFBBQ!

But now all is well.

That was good, the intros were funny. Also, WTF skals?

I love it!

Heheh, my character seems to have the right idea of myself. Hate socializing, love working alone.

EDIT

I vote we punish Urby next, hotdogs are very unhealthy.

I vote for Dimbark simply for trying to get me punished all the time.

You know this by the way, because we were on TeamSpeak, but fuck me did I laugh at this. Well done.

Why hello there Blitzkrieg :3 :3 :> :>

I laughed so hard at this, even though I have a cold and a soar throat, damm you for making me laughhhh!!! But that was great Archie, keep them coming pleeeease! ...and um, is it just me, or was Urby getting a lot of hate?

I was :rly:

He was

Dimbark.

Scotch is also a piano prodigy. Fuckin' right he is, this episode is the bollocks!

I've not used an HD link for you low bandwidthers.

<3

Very amusing episode.

Hahaha, I love it! This is so very awesome.

I would say I need punishing for that... SALAD spits.... but I must have been doing that just to block everyone off, so I consider it redeemed.

So my vote is for Dimbark, unless he reveals this project of his.

Urbs, if I change my vote to Scotch will you change your vote?

Dimbark is obviously building a bomb, which makes him a terrorist. I vote for Dimbark.

Also, I shat my pants laughing. Well done.

Well made Archie. You're definitely in the right field. Hilarious as expected, and i also vote Dimbark.

Foul called, flag on the field- yup its a salad blocking foul. Penalty is one vote.

Urbs, if I change my vote to Scotch will you change your vote?

Can I vote double Dimbark?
