Game II: Mysterious Puzzler

The Game is an interactive virtual game patterned after the Big Brother television show. There are 10 players, affectionately called BGs (short for Board Guests) sequestered inside a virtual Big Brother-type house. The BGs are allowed to post only in their own virtual house although they may view most other discussion areas in TVCH. They may not, however, view the Game II discussion area!

While the BGs are allowed to communicate with fellow TVCH members, they are not permitted to have any discussions about any aspect of this Game. (see rules for a full listing of restrictions.)

The guests were selected by the members of TV ClubHouse. 5 males and 5 females will see who can solve the most challenges, who can keep their cool, and who will last until the final day.

The BGs will be given challenges to complete in the form of team and individual puzzles of various natures. The BGs will also be expected to provide input on diverse discussion topics that will be provided by the Game hosts, Digilady and Noslonna (digilady@home.com). Chats between the players will also take place at specific scheduled times. A big part of what takes place results from the BGs themselves asking questions of each other, coming up with games, and starting their own discussion topics.

Just like Big Brother, one of the highlights is the virtual Red Room. An Interrogator (affectionately called “Gator”) will email the BGs and ask pointed questions. These Red Room session will be posted in the Game Discussion area.

The BGs will vote for two of their own to be put up for banishment based on a certain schedule, and the members watching vote for who is to be banished from the top 3.

The final 3 players win valuable Prizes, and the audience gains a unique perspective on 10 diverse individuals: their dreams, their morality, and their beliefs.

“Life on the Inside; a Former Player’s Perspective”
Ok folks, now for the inside answer to the question “What Is The Game?”.

First of all, it’s addictive.
It’s something that is very different from most other games—especially if you were a Big Brother fan/fanatic/addict.

It’s as interactive as you want to make it. The Game is a great way to get to know so many things about your fellow BGs. If you choose, you can use it to learn a little more about yourself. It is also a great way for all the TVCH members to get to know a heck of a lot about who you are.

Should you be willing to get into it, you end up saying things about yourself, your ideas, and your feelings that you may have told only a select few, or no one at all. It’s about letting your feelings take over and becoming a part of the Game, as opposed to being just a player of a game.

It’s amazing to sit with real life all around you while you’re playing, yet not have it really exist till you look away from your screen or till someone gets your attention.

It is a great study in psychology of yourself as a player and of those around you. There are feelings that crop up resulting from nominating your fellow BGs, especially toward the end of the game. Some feel that this is the hardest part of the game to go through. I was sure that I wouldn’t have any feelings at all about doing that process—“it’s just a game” was how I went into it.

I remember the last set of nominations. I thought to myself, “ok, this is indeed a game, but it’s not “just a game!””. Other than being able to be a contestant on Big Brother, playing in The Game feels like “it’s as real as it gets”. If you ever have the opportunity to be a part of this Game, all I can say is take full advantage from it. You will walk away having gone through something in games like nothing else you’ve ever experienced in your life.
