Hope I didn't frightened the Final 5. This is random and not game related.As we draw closer to the end of this season, the beginning of the next season draws closer as well. I just thought that I would ask around to see what my past houseguests have thought. I'd like to know the good. Things that you think are good about the Recycled series that should continue on. Could be a twist, bringing a certain player back, a specific competition, the bbr home...idk anything.
I'd also like to know about the bad. What things do you think should be tossed. Certain competition, a certain houseguest, alliance boards, HOH rooms...just let me know.
Lastly, I would like to know what you think should be added or what things should be changed. Sick of episodes, want every voting history with houseguest pictures, want BB Starz players to be brought in future seasons as 'celeb' guests...comment and comment some more.

The good things about this series that definitely make it shine like it does are the innovative twists you throw in almost every time. A neutral season here-and-there is good but I love the seasons where you include something like the Veto Store, Nice & Naughty, Vets vs. Newbies, etc.  I can't think of anything bad really, besides the challenges that require you to know about past seasons because not everyone keeps up to date with past seasons and in particular ones they weren't apart of. Just my personal opinion, I'm probably just mentioning 'em because I sucked at them. xD I think the voting charts should be changed from being made via Excel or whatever and look like what the charts on wikipedia do. That is all. Love the series as a whole. |

There are a lot of elements that make this series great. Episodes being one of them. I think without them, future houseguests will have LESS knowledge on the Recycled series and history. It's also entertaining to see it all pieced together instead of trying to piece it together yourself by reading through Diary Rooms. Alliance boards are also a good read after the season is over.
I also enjoy the different twists that are created, so that's definitely something that should be kept.
Now for the bad things...
There really isn't anything, other than the fact that there shouldn't be luck competitions towards the end of the game...but hey, you're the boss, Chenbot!
Things that should be changed...
Again nothing much. It would actually be cool to see the pictures included in the voting history, but idk if anyone else agrees. Also, what do you mean by BB Starz players brought into future seasons as celebrity guests? 
Other than that, this series is great as is!

Like I was talking to James and he was all for Adam Levine visiting the BB Recycled house one season (he played as Adam Levine in Starz)
Also, Parker I don't understand what you mean by wikipedia voting history. :/

If anyone is good with video editing, I always thought custom made intros for the series would be cool; however I understand that's pretty time consuming, and I wouldn't ask anyone to actually make an attempt at one unless they were super serious about it.

Like I was talking to James and he was all for Adam Levine visiting the BB Recycled house one season (he played as Adam Levine in Starz) I don't remember this conversation Chenbot lol. But hey, I'm for it I guess  The change - I think since you don't allow someone to be a recycled houseguest that's already been used, it makes each of us have our own distinctive recycled personalities with the characters we used. I think you should have returning recycled houseguests compete in different types of competitions, such as RW/RR challenges (Battle of the Sexes, Gauntlet, Duel, etc.). I think that would be FUN!! Just a little spin off when you're bored of bb and recycled hype is up  You HAVE to be preggo Chenbot soon. Mandatory. The good - I love that you have a twitter account. Your homepage kicks ass, and the episodes make recycled what it is. Great. The bad - Don't rely too much on the history of recycled for competitions. Also, be a little more firm with deadlines . The ugly -  SHARON OBERMUELLER <3 MY MOST EPIC FRESHMEAT PARTNER IN SEASON FIVE. I miss you Sharon. |

The Good: The twists. Your twists have been great. Freshmeat, and A House Divided were very awesome, and incredibly unique. However, since then, a lot of the twists (Veto Store, Redemption Island, Cliques w/ Winners, and HvV), despite having unique tweaks are not that original and just a wee bit bland and overused. Coming up with twists is hard, but I know you can do it! Recycled had the best twists and you just gotta get that spark back!
The Bad: Not enough Pandora's Boxes! They don't have to be game-changing DPoVs, but little things to spice up a boring/slow day are always fun and exciting. (Plus it's good to see who's greedy.)
The Change: BRING BACK HAVE NOT COMPETITIONS! You are one of TWO ORGS I've seen have Have Not Competitions, and It's upsetting you took those away. It makes the game more Big Brother like, and if people can't win HoH or PoV it makes them feel good to win omnomnomnoms. If it's time consuming, just hire anouther Housecall to take care of it *cough*Dustin McDreamy*cough* Not to mention, that awful skin punishment REALLY DOES get to you, and it makes the stuggle more authentic. (Just tone it down so nobody gets a seisure.)

I pretty much agree with everyone here. This series is GREAT and its FUN! The twists are good and thought out and don't completely screw you over. It also makes each season feel like it has a theme which I like. The Recycled history challenges... yeah def ugg!!! As far as what to change? It's so good its hard to say, and I have faith that it will continue being just as good if not better! |
