SBB1

SBB1 is the upcoming first season of Tengaged user Sethhhh's series SBB (2016). The series comes after an extensive hiatus, and is slated to begin in April of 2016. The season will feature twelve housemates competing to win. Each week, one housemate becomes the Head of Household, and is responsible for nominating two of their fellow housemates for eviction. The winner of the Power of Veto can remove one housemate from the block, with the Head of Household naming a new nominee. Those not nominated then vote to evict one of the two nominated housemates. In addition, the housemates participate in various task and team building exercises during their stay in the house. When only two housemates remain, the previously evicted housemates return to select one of them to be the winner of the series.

Development
Seth first joined Tengaged on March 4, 2012. He quickly became involved in various group games on the site, eventually going on to host his own series. Seth's Big Brother (2012-13) served as his debut as a host, and spawned three seasons prior to its cancellation. The series earned Seth a total of five Tengaged Outstanding Group Awards nominations, one of which he won. Spin-offs such as a side show featuring former Housemates and a series based on the UK format were announced, though were scrapped due to Seth's ongoing hiatus from the site. Seth returned from his hiatus and quickly found himself bored with the amount of Big Brother based games in the groups, and began work on SBB. Initial plans saw Seth working with longtime collaborator Matt Deavers, though a second hiatus led to progress on the series stalling. Seth officially returned to Tengaged in April of 2016, and immediately resumed work on the abandoned series. Casting for the first season of SBB began on April 2, 2016.

Selected housemates will be privately informed of their casting prior to the launch of the show, though the cast will not be revealed until the premiere. This decision was made in hopes to prevent pre-made alliances from entering the house. The series received sixteen applications within the first twenty-four hours, twelve of which were male contestants. Due to the initial success with applications, the second round of auditions is anticipated to begin on April 3, 2016. Though the goal for the series was to have a balanced number of male and female contestants, lack of female participants could lead to the series featuring five women and seven men. For the series, Seth hoped to find interesting characters, putting gameplay as a secondary requirement. He believed that an interesting cast would make the game fresh, and more memorable for those competing. Upon selection, housemates were sent a questionnaire featuring random bits of information about them, to be used for their individual wiki pages and for future competitions. Housemates are always able to submit information to be included on their page; however, they are under no circumstance permitted to edit any of the wiki's pages themselves.

The season is currently scheduled to last for a total of thirty days. The beginning of each week in the house will see the Head of Household competition take place. The following day will feature a secret task of team building exercise, with the nomination ceremony following that night. The Power of Veto competition and ceremony will occur the day after; the Power of Veto will be up for grabs for anyone that is present during the time of the competition. In the fourth day of the week, the housemates will evict one of the nominees, and the week will reset with a new Head of Household competition. The format sees an eviction every three to four days, thus keeping the game interesting for those playing. The season was initially set to include a weekly Have-Not competition, though this idea was later scrapped in favor of tasks, secret missions, and team building exercises. Events in the house are anticipated to occur at 7 PM Eastern time; tasks and secret missions can occur at any point in the game.

The competitions for the game were all selected by Seth. They consist primarily of adaptions of competitions from the televised series. Head of Household competitions are generally quizzes, though endurance competitions are scheduled to take place. The new series logo was unveiled on April 3, 2016. The logo featured a simple design of a camera and the name of the series, as Seth hoped to convey the simplicity of the series. The group pages for the Head of Household suite and the Jury House received new logos as well, featuring a similar theme to the main logo. The rules and regulations for the series were posted on April 3, and required potential housemates to agree to them prior to the start of the season. The rules stated that should a housemate not vote in an eviction, their vote would automatically go with the majority of the house. The rules state that bullying of any form is not permitted, and will result in immediate expulsion from the house.
