Has anyone figured out what house is even being used?
It's most likely the S3 house:
- Jet said they're gonna have a full crew doing preprod BG2 while they're shooting S4 --> would make sense to be able to supervise or use those ressources even for the show itself (support, freeloaders)
- maejok was working on S3 house cameras and audio early off-season (mentioned replacing/having a better Island PTZ)
- mints joked about you being able to see him take a shit on lavatory cam and he is presumably still there

also all cam names have been reset to generic names so no space tank...
 
I’d be way more hype if it was confirmed to be a bloodgames season
In due time. I'm actually very glad to hear that they're putting real effort into BG2. I've said it before but if they tighten up the theming, write some good branching stories, and fill the dead portions of the day with heavily incentivized side quests, it's gonna be a great watch. I'm of the opinion that the more seriously they take the larp and story, the funnier and more engaging it will be. Invested contestants/participants are way more entertaining.

Hey Jet, make good food and drinks only accessible as side quest rewards. No more sausage and pancake handouts, they gotta bring the general store owner 6 imp horns for that shit. Makes side questing worthwhile and makes mealtime a celebration of daily success. If they fail entirely for the day, it's "innkeep gruel" only and they gotta pay a small amount for it: bland chicken and rice puree served in a bowl

This wasn't the issue with Bloodgames, the issue was the fact its not a video game and the contestants get physically exhausted from the exertion of moving around the woods all day, doing quests then fighting in the 90 degree heat. Then they don't sleep because of SFX spam all night. Maybe half of what went on during Bloodgames was actually recorded by the cameras, the fish would usually split up into groups of 2 and what happened to the other 4 isn't even lost media, it just wasn't recorded at all.

What they need to work on is the technology side of it, they need cameras that can switch to infrared with illuminators or are extremely good in low light settings because most of the night time combat wasn't visible because of the darkness and black clothing the vampires wore. Then they need more static cams to handle times the camera guys aren't around. The POV cams should probably be upgraded to Go-pros to take advantage of the video stabilization features as well.

First priority definitely should be to keep the fish from gassing out too quickly. Even if they have to break the day up with a hefty amount of non-canon indoor A/C and rehydration time. If they can figure that out, then the next thing is to ensure they are always filmed engaging with the campaign and side quests while outside and only doing strenuous stuff once or twice a day. Also, zero TTS after like 11pm.
It'd be better to do Bloodgames in the fall imo, the summer is brutal pretty much anywhere in the US.

And yes, the tech absolutely has to improve. The whole thing is pretty pointless if we can't even see what's happening. I think your solutions would cover it.

The theming and writing for BG1 was pretty much perfect, I probably wouldn't change anything about it. Ramping up the immersion and depth (so to speak--it's still a comedy show) would take the whole thing to another level though, and probably even bring in viewers from outside of FT if they emphasized it.
 
I disagree, season 3's cast was great and I won't stand for any more s3 slander in this thread. Mizzy, Simbal, and Ian were great and it actually was a bit sad when Smack left the way she did in s3.
Smaack deserved to go out on her own terms, and her family doing that was scummy...
Buuut, the ensuing paranoia was pretty great. Alex B being given the impossible task, and being told not to tell anyone (lest he split the prize), only for him to immediately fold and tell Binx? Hilarious.
Alex B then causing more distress as everyone started looking for Smaack, because he couldn't be fucking covert? Amazing.

Mizzy finding the other candy, and understanding what went down?
Kino.
 
Jimmy was so autistic that it came back around and became great viewing pretty often. Tay was not. The meta-reacting soyface stuff was absolutely painful to watch.
As soon as everyone figured out that the cast was fans it started the spiral into him being unfunny, Jimmy’s forced sounding laughter every time Sam said nigger was desperate. Other than Sam screaming at him when he quit like a bitch, he really bogged it down with his evil autism.
His secret code stuff was funny though.

“this is a special cast”
He said that last time and the only real special people were Burt and Alex. Someone dropping out last second and a replacement being found so quickly does not correspond to what he is saying.
The season 3 meme is "it's a good cast", which is a weird comment, because it doesn't even really read as a compliment. Kind of like saying something is "nice".
I think special implies that most of the contestants are autists/retarded. Jet implied that before as well.
