Talk:Big Brother House (Borehamwood)

descriptions

some flavor, not sure in which form to add it to the article:

You are inside the runs, a series of dimly-lit corridors that surround the studio. Two-way mirrors look out into the house. With the lights out, you can hardly see anything. The building's fire exits have been secured.

You are inside the control room, with monitors and consoles stacked on desks and shelves. The building's fire exits have been secured.

You are inside the offices, a network of corridors, meeting rooms and office spaces. The doors to the street have been secured.

You are inside the Big Brother lounge, a large, wooden-floored room with designer chairs, flock wallpaper and a small kitchen. The doors to the street have been secured.

You are inside the diary room, a blank room with a large, purple chair in the middle.

Note that:

1. the runs are dark buildings.
2. the diary room has no entrance/exit to the streets at all.
3. powering up control room can make some monitors there usefull (like cctv in police stations)

I'm confused as to how the Lounge has a door to the street. :/

Power on in control room enabled CCTV

A portable generator has been set up here. It is running. CCTV monitors show the interior of the house, and a large red clock reads '88:88'.

CCTV switches between: the diary room, Bib Brother lounge and the garden --~~~~ [talk] 11:53, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Image

Should we include an image, or does the grid suffice?

grid's enough --~~~~ [talk] 20:39, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Hidden location?

It's location is uncertain, and users have been asked to keep it that way. —Hagnat

Asked by who? If it's anyone short of Kevan, I am disinclined to acquiesce to your request.ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 13:24, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

My updating of this article has just been reverted. This wiki is a resource, I consider the removal of factual and sourced information to be in bad faith and will take people to A/VB. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 13:26, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

I was just about to say – nice work on the find, and good timing! Unless there has been an explicit request from Kevan to keep the location hidden, I have to agree with you. "Information wants to be free" → it's going to get out, especially now that iWitnesses have been posted. Anyone who wants to keep it hidden, you might as well bow to the inevitable and save yourself the hassle. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 13:30, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

I actually went out and found it yesterday afternoon, I was just busy until then. If it hadn't been for Hagnat's "Noez, keeps it sekrit soez i can haz winz!" bullshit I wouldn't have been in a hurry, however I'm violently opposed to censorship. This is now sourced and posted on Barhah and the Philosophe Knight boards just in case. Those iwitnesses are public, and were made so for a reason. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 13:34, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

You're naive to think that your iwitnesses are first that reveal location of the BB house. How do you think i got the coordinates in the first place? --~~~~ [talk] 13:44, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Never claimed to be first, but more public iwits increase everyone's chances. I actually found the house because of you and Hagnat, thanks for that ;) -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 13:46, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Iscariot, i play zombie... the doors to the place are locked and i still didnt got inside. Therefore, i am not participating on the competition... yet. This is not a matter of censorship, its not a matter of a user keeping this info so he can win the prize himself, its rather a case of allowing people to have fun searching for a unique building. If this information is publicy available, most of the fun of searching for it vanishes. Its like telling the end of suspense/drama movie to someone who just bought a ticket for it. The wiki might be a resource, but it must be a resource thinking on the fun of its users. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^talk 13:57, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
