Big Brother Universe 4

"Big Brother Universe 4", a Reality Based Game, is the fifth in Shattered's Big Brother Universe Series. The season ended prematurely without crowning a winner due to the host's IRL priorities.

This summer, Big Brother is once again choosing new victims to participate in the ultimate social experience. A group of contestants from around the world, referred to as HouseGuests, will be enclosed in the Big Brother House under the surveillance of cameras and microphones. Each week, the HouseGuests will vote to evict one of their own, facing twists and rules incorporated from Big Brother series around the world, until two HouseGuests remain on finale night. The winner will be decided by the last seven evicted HouseGuests, collectively known as the Big Brother Jury. To survive in this house, you'll need a lot of charm and wit to convince your fellow HouseGuests to keep you around. Trust me, this is going to be one drama-filled summer. Are you up for the challenge?

Head of Household Competition & Nomination Ceremony
The first event of each week will be the Head of Household Competition. All HouseGuests will compete in this competition except for the previous HoH. HouseGuests will have 24 Hours to complete this challenge by PM. Most of these challenges are timed. If you fail to respond to the competition [responding = completion or notification of throwing], you will receive a strike. If you receive 3 strikes Pre-Jury, you will be prematurely evicted from the game. The Head of Household has the power for the week, and is guaranteed to be in the house at least one more week. They get to nominate 2 HouseGuests for Eviction. Once the Head of Household is announced, they must post in the thread their Nomination Ceremony, in which they will nominate 2 HouseGuests for Eviction. These two HouseGuests on the block are not finalized for the Eviction Vote until after the Veto Ceremony.

Veto Competition & Veto Ceremony
Once the Head of Household has posted their Nomination Ceremony, it will be time for the Veto Competition. Only 6 HouseGuests will compete in this competition; the HoH, the 2 Nominees, and 3 HouseGuests chosen by random draw. HouseGuests will have 24 Hours to complete this challenge by PM. If you fail to respond to the competition [responding = completion or notification of throwing], you will receive a strike. Most of these challenges are timed. while others will be held in the thread. The winner of this competition will win the Golden Power of Veto, which gives them the power to remove one of the Nominees from the block if they wish. Once the Power of Veto winner has been announced, that HouseGuest must post their Veto Ceremony in the thread. If they choose to use the Veto, they will remove one of the Nominees from the block. This will force the Head of Household to nominate another HouseGuest in their place. They cannot nominate the Veto winner. The Veto winner can also choose not to use it, keeping the Nominations the same. Once the Veto winner has made their decision, the Nominees are locked.

Live Eviction
After the Power of Veto winner posts their Veto Ceremony, the HouseGuests will send me an Eviction Vote for one of the Nominees via PM. HouseGuests will have 24 Hours to send their vote. Once I have all of the votes, the HouseGuest that received more votes will be Evicted from the Big Brother House. In the event of a tie, the HoH will choose which HouseGuest will be Evicted. At the halfway point in the game, when a HouseGuest is evicted, they will be required to fill out an Eviction Interview via PM that only I will see. I will ask you questions about your gameplay and what led to your Eviction, what you may have done differently, etc. These Interviews will resurface, however, at the end of the game. Be honest with these Interviews, and have fun with them.

Live Finale
When there are only 3 HouseGuest remaining, the Live Finale will commence. This night will consist of the 3-Part Final Head of Household Competition, the Final Eviction, the Jury Questioning, Closing Statements, and the Vote for a winner. The 7 Jury Members will be choosing the winner of Big Brother Universe 4.

Week 1
Sixteen former HouseGuests from The United States, The United Kingdom, and France were chosen to enter the Big Brother house. On Day 1, the HouseGuests learned that they would be voting to grant another HouseGuest Immunity for the week. Talla received the most votes and was therefore crowned the first Head of Household. It was then revealed that this week would be a Double Eviction, where she would have to put up three HouseGuests for Eviction and two would be voted out. The HouseGuests also learned of the season's twist, in which they would be playing as members of common high school cliques. Despite this, HouseGuests continued to play the game as individuals and competed in competitions as individuals, were nominated as individuals, and were evicted as individuals. They also learned that if a member of their clique won Head of Household, they could not be nominated for eviction. HouseGuests Aaron, Aaryn, Mutya, and Talla were in the Athletes clique, while Michelle, Renny, Tara, and Will were in the Brains clique. Beinazir, Eric, GinaMarie, and Makosi were placed in the Offbeat clique, leaving Amanda, David, Keesha, and Liza in the Popular clique. On Day 2, Talla nominated David, GinaMarie, and Will for Eviction in an attempt to break up an obvious alliance. This caused a huge stir and set off a chain of arguments including Mutya vs. Makosi and Will vs. Talla; it was clear Will's alliance wasn't going down without a fight. David, GinaMarie, Keesha, Michelle, Talla, and Will all competed in the first Veto Competition entitled "The Longest Word"; David won the Power of Veto and surprisingly decided to remove his closest ally Will from the block instead of himself. Talla decided to nominate Renny in Will's place. On Day 6, GinaMarie & Renny were Evicted from the Big Brother House.

Week 2
The HouseGuests, besides Talla who was not allowed to compete as outgoing Head of Household, participated in the second HoH Competition "Majority Rules". David won the competition, becoming the second HoH. He nominated Talla and Eric for Eviction. Aaron, Mutya, and Tara were chosen as the players in the Veto Competition alongside David, Eric, and Talla. In the Veto Competition "Puzzled", David won the Golden Power of Veto, making that his third competition win in a row. He chose to use the PoV on Eric, and replaced him with Tara, who in a conversation told him she would save Talla with the Veto if she won it. After the Nomination Ceremony, the HouseGuests learned that instead of them voting to evict one of the Nominees, a Public Poll would be opened for the viewers to choose who would be evicted. On Day 10, with 62% of the vote, America evicted Talla from the Big Brother House.

Week 3
Following Talla's eviction, a Public Poll opened to vote for one of the HouseGuests to be the Big Brother MVP for the week; this person would have the duty of nominating a third HouseGuest for Eviction in secret. HouseGuests then competed in the "Most Likely To..." Head of Household competition. For this competition, HouseGuests attempted to correctly guess which clique the viewers felt best fit a certain scenario; when a HouseGuest answered correctly they could eliminate one contestant from the competition, while an incorrect answer led to their own elimination. Aaron was the winner. Later, Aaron chose to nominate Michelle and Tara for Eviction. When picking players for the Power of Veto competition, it was revealed that the Big Brother MVP chose to nominate David as the 3rd Nominee for Eviction. Makosi and Will were selected to compete for the Power of Veto. HouseGuests competed in the "Big Brother Mint" Power of Veto competition, and Tara was the winner. Tara chose to use the Power of Veto to remove herself from the block, with Makosi being nominated in her place. On Day 13, drama erupted in the house when Tara attempted to flip the vote off of Makosi by campaigning against David. Despite her efforts, Makosi was still Evicted from the Big Brother House in a 5-4-0 vote.

Week 4
Following Makosi's eviction, the HouseGuests learned that the viewers would select one HouseGuest to win a "Secret Power", though it was not revealed what the power would be. HouseGuests then competed in the "Hand Games" Head of Household competition. For this competition, HouseGuests were thrown into a Rock Paper Scissors Tournament in an attempt to outsmart their opponents. Mutya was the winner to much of the house's dismay. Though numerous HouseGuests tried to suggest who should be nominated that week, Mutya informed the HouseGuests that she would be making her own decisions that week, rather than listening to the other HouseGuests. Later on, Mutya chose to nominate Keesha and Liza for Eviction. Drama erupted when Keesha and Tara claimed they wouldn't kiss ass to keep themselves from being nominated, and Mutya along with a couple other HouseGuests rebutted against them. When picking players for the Power of Veto competition, Amanda, Beinazir, and Will were selected to compete in the "When Pigs Fly" Power of Veto competition. For this competition, HouseGuests chose various truffles with point values on them; the winner was the HouseGuest that had the highest total when combining the numbers on their truffles. Beinazir was the winner of the Power of Veto, and chose to not use the Power of Veto to remove anyone from the block. Following this, Amanda learned that she had won the power of the "Second Life", in which she could save the HouseGuest who has just been Evicted, allowing that HouseGuest to replace themselves on the block and reset Eviction Voting; this power could only be used at the next three Evictions, and the current Head of Household was unable to be Nominated. On Day 17, Liza was Evicted from the Big Brother House in an 8-1 vote, however Amanda chose to use the Second Life, thus overruling the Eviction and keeping Liza in the house. Liza chose to replace herself on the block with Will. Mutya was ineligible to vote during this eviction as the current Head of Household. On Day 18, Will was Evicted from the Big Brother House in an 8-1 vote.

Week 5
Following Will's eviction, the HouseGuests learned that the "Cliques" twist had ended, and that all HouseGuests were playing the game as individuals. The ten remaining HouseGuests, not including Mutya as outgoing HoH, then competed in the "Big Brother Graduation" Head of Household competition. For this competition, HouseGuests played an online endurance test; the HouseGuest with the highest score would be the new Head of Household. Keesha was the winner. On Day 19, Keesha chose to nominate Aaryn and Mutya for eviction, with Mutya being her main target for nominating her the previous week. When picking players for the Power of Veto competition, Aaron, David, and Tara were selected to compete. HouseGuests competed in the "Vini Vidi Veto" Power of Veto competition where HouseGuests had to determine the quantity of heads in four images. During the Veto Competition, Beinazir stood up in defense of Aaryn against Tara picking on her and the two hashed it out. Aaryn was the winner of the Power of Veto. She chose to use the Power of Veto on herself, and Keesha named Amanda as the replacement Nominee. On Day 22, Mutya became the sixth HouseGuest to be Evicted from the house in a vote of 6-2.

Week 6
Following Mutya's eviction, HouseGuests competed in the "Say What?" Head of Household competition. For this competition, HouseGuests were asked true or false questions about things the HouseGuests have said; Beinazir was the winner. Shortly afterwards, the HouseGuests learned that a previously evicted HouseGuest would be returning to the game in one week; Mutya was not eligible as she had left sequester. Later on, Beinazir chose to nominate ally Aaron as a pawn against David for Eviction. After the Nomination Ceremony, David called a meeting where he decided to address the comments he's been hearing about him behind his back and how he supposedly had multiple deals with everyone in the game. When picking players for the Power of Veto competition, Amanda, Keesha, and Michelle were selected to compete. HouseGuests then competed in the "BB Farm" Power of Veto competition. For this competition, HouseGuests were required to complete a bridges puzzle. On Day 25, Keesha decided to walk from the game, as it was getting "way too ugly, personal, hurtful and emotional" for her. The HouseGuests were then informed that because Beinazir's Head of Household duties were not completed since Keesha was not a Nominee, the week would continue as planned and the Veto Competition continued. Aaron was the winner of the Power of Veto. He chose to use it on himself, and Beinazir chose Aaryn as the replacement Nominee. After the Veto Ceremony, Aaron confronted Beinazir about her decision to put him up as a pawn when they were allies, questioning how close they actually were in the game. On Day 27, David became the seventh HouseGuest to be Evicted in a vote of 4-3, with Beinazir breaking the tie. Minutes later, it was revealed that the viewers had chosen Will to return to the house, having received 22.7% of the public vote.

Week 7
Following David's eviction, HouseGuests competed in the "Hit the Road" Head of Household competition. For this competition, HouseGuests faced off two at a time and were asked questions about past competitions played this season; the winner of each round would select the next two HouseGuests to face off, and Aaryn was the winner. Later that night, Aaryn chose to nominate Aaron and Liza for Eviction. When picking players for the Power of Veto competition, Michelle, Tara, and Will were selected to compete.
