Big Brother
Myself and a couple of friends have come up with an idea of a "Big Brother" like modification.. Below is a brief-ish description of the idea, if anyone would like anything explaining, don't hesitate to ask..
Basically, the principle will be to "lock" the members in the Big Brother forum, ie. they can't access anything else other than that forum. This will give the feeling of being locked away from the outside world since they cannot view any other forums, nevermind threads. While in the Big Brother forum, members try and entertain each other by posting activities, and making interesting new threads in that forum. We, the public can view the forum, and then decide whom to evict based on posting qualities, personality that comes through and such by voting them out (like a poll vote).. The system would automatically count these votes, and automatically post who is going to be evicted. Once a housemate is evicted, interviews are cast and they return to a normal member and have general access around the forums again. Admins of the board would play the part of Big Brother, and set the housemates tasks that would be discussed between them. Rewards are a possibility for completion of the tasks (not quite sure how that will work yet, ie. what rewards could be given). Possibly also a "Diary Room" forum or chat room would be added, in case any housemates wanted to leave and return back to normal posting status or any problems that occur in the forum. This would be a challenge in it's self to code up with php so that all messages were private to Big Brother and the single housemate, and no other housemates or normal members could see them. It may be a bit farfetched, and probably impossible.. But the idea is there. Unfortunately this is FAR beyond my knowledge of PHP (I'm still learning the basics.. ). If anyone would like the challenge of writing such a modification, let us know! :knockedout: |
