Live Feed Updaters Needed

[KennyERJ]

It's that time of the year again and, like every Big Brother season, we're going to need help with the daily Live Feed Updates. It would be nice to get at least a couple of members from the West Coast to help especially in the evenings/nights as you will be in the same time zone as the houseguests. If the houseguests are up at midnight, it will already be 3 AM here on the East Coast and there are folks that have to get to bed to go to work, school, etc... the next day.

Remember, you don't have to be a professional and get every single word that is said. The more of the conversation the better BUT we're happy with any updates that give us the main points of the conversation and we all want to know about any drama that goes down!

Please let us know if you're able to help. Thanks!

Definitely going to need some help this season! And, like Kenny said above, it would be awesome if one of our West Coast members could jump in and help with all those late night ( really late night/actually early morn, if you are an East Coaster, like me) .... if they could jump in and help ...

Anyone game?

I will certainly try to pick up where I left off last year now that I can see my computer screen. I'm here in SoCal.

[KennyERJ]

Woot! Thanks, Joe! Are you near where the BB House is? Maybe you can just sneak in and hide and update directly from the BB House! lol

[joebourg62]

I'm in San Diego, about a 2.5 hour drive, although I have scoped out the BB House area.....just in case my daughter made it in the house.

I'll try to help from the West Coast... my late nights are mainly restricted to Friday and Saturday. Pesky job gets in the way of my BB watching

[KennyERJ]

Thanks Lisalulu! ANY help is appreciated!

[Lexie]

Joe and Lisalulu - any help (especially from the West Coasters ) would be awesome, it's always so late ( which translates to the wee hours of the east coast morning ) when the HG's start to really have fun.

I'm truly excited that you guys might be able to jump in and cover the Live Feed Updates : )

[crissykins]

when do we go live? after tonight's show? I can do some, some nights. I just can't stay up really late during the week, i'm an early bird. I know most of the best stuff happens really late at night.

[KennyERJ]

Hi & Thanks, crissykins! Yeah, the feeds go live after the show airs on the West Coast, so 9pm PT/12 Midnight ET

[crissykins]

see, i'm old and that's way too late for me..LOL

[MicahMW]

The feeds have been up and down from 7:35-7:45 pm eastern. Thought I would let you guys know :-) And I can help out!

[Lexie]

Any help is greatly appreciated Micah!

Here's where we'll be posting the updates each day ...

For about the next week and a half I should be able to post late night updates. If my VPN works well, I will be able to do it for the rest of the summer also as I'll be 15 hours ahead of BB time

[Lexie]

Thanks for your help last night, it meant alot! Any help you can give in those late night/wee hours of the morning would be AWESOME!!

[dragofour]

No problem, long time lurker happy to help

[ladynascar88]

I'll do what I can to help. The last 2 years I didn't get to help so much but will try to get in there and help as much as I used to if needed. I'm usually up late night or wee morning hours. I'm in Tennessee so that makes it Central time.

[KennyERJ]

Thanks! Any & all help is appreciated!

Just a sample post for any newbies that may want to help...

2:47 PM BBT, Cam 3 (Put the time in Big Brother time aka West Coast/Pacific Time and the Camera number you were viewing the conversation on so people know where they can Flashback if they want to watch it themselves)

John & James talking (put the people that are in/having the conversation)
John asks James if he's ever been to the dentist.
James says of course he has.
John says he didn't know if Asian hillbillys went to the dentist or not.
James says, "F*** off!"
John starts to cry.


What NOT to do:

Don't use abbreviations or nicknames for the houseguests that people will not know. Use their real names. (example of what not to do: J & J were talking or The Dentist & The Hillbilly were talking)
Don't post your own thoughts about what is going on in or being said in the house or about the houseguests themselves. We use the Live Feed DISCUSSION thread for that (example of what not to do: That was real messed up what John said. Look at him crying now. I can't stand him.)
