Join in Smilie Sister, Ship-of-Fools answer to reality TV. We have 8 willing participants who will spend the next couple of weeks locked in an undisclosed location battling it out to be the Smilie Sister winner!!!! Their survival is in your hands. Every other day there will be a vote with one smilie being eliminated from the contest.
The competition will proceed like this:
Day one, three, five, seven etc. Action Days. The smilies will be given a task to complete during the day. As participants in the thread you can write the dialogue between the participants, and hopefully we'll get some key characters emerging, possibly some personality clashes, maybe even a few romantic moments. Who knows?!
Days two, four, six, eight, etc. Voting days. Here the thread will freeze frame the drama as everyone gets a chance to vote which smilie is to be ejected from the contest. After the twenty four hours of voting is up (one vote per shipmate), the votes will be counted and one smilie will be asked to leave. Voters will also be asked to suggest a task for the next days activities. The drama will continue on day three.
The days will run from 00.00 hours as shown on the thread dates. Anyone may count up votes cast at the end of the voting periods, declare the smilie to be ejected and set the next days task. It is also permissible to submit media commentary on the antics in Smilie Sister, or to conduct interviews (with ejected smilies only).
Note: when writing smilie dialogue you have a limit of 8 smilies per post.
The 8 smilies will start their sojourn in under constant public scrutiny today.
Introducing the contestants:
Important: these are the only smilies who have been selected to appear in Smilie Sister. Do not use any of the others.
The first days task is to build a life sized norman castle. [ 10. March 2003, 02:14: Message edited by: Erin ]

You can draw me to your bridge any day.... yeah, right, sure you need to wear your bikini for this sort of heavy manual labour? i'm not so sure about the moat. how deep should it be? and can we make it with only a teaspoon in the tool shed? who's norman?

You know, I think that special whitening toothpaste is going to do the trick as far as getting a little more camera time. Forget the cleavage. All right, no more slacking. We've only got a few hours left on this project, and so far all we've got a two inch trench dug with a teaspoon for a moat. Pass the sunscreen, would you? I burn so easily. Especially in those, um, delicate cleavage areas. I'm digging as fast as I can, really. How deep does the moat have to be? Do you have to apply it right there, right now? The camera's rolling! I'm sure the glare from my teeth will blot out the more titillating parts. At this rate, we'll all be voted off in the first round. Hey, who's Norman?

Oh, hello stranger! Beg pardon? I just noticed that you can stick your tongue out....how.....interesting. Will you take those things and get on with the project? And stop smiling! Chill, man. You know, if you wore shades the glare from her teeth wouldn't be so bad. The spoon handle is bent. As long as it's deep enough to toss in Lady Colgate who cares?

Well - I'm going to vote off . I mean he's a really nice bloke and all that, but he's just so, like, down all the time, and giving off, like, negative vibes, and that's just not going to help us get through the challenges. Even though actually he was the only one trying with the castle cos no-one was talking to him. But I'm still going to vote him off and, yeah - that's it really.

I'm voting off - just cause she fancies herself far too much - and I can't stand people that fancy themselves.

DAY THREE - ACTION The First Smilie Sister Eviction, and has to leave her much enjoyed limelight after polling a massive 6 votes. How will the remaining contestants cope without this most 'bouncing' of characters? The next days action will tell all... The task for the day is to put on a fashion parade using rubber, wood and pillows as the costume material.

cool it man. i need my sleep. i'll give you my pillow when it's time to move out to the deckchair. no rush. let's see, here's my pillow. do i need to do something creative with it? oh dear, i don't think i could 'design' anything.. can't i just pop out to marks and spensers and buy something sensible? creative skemative - pah. not this early. bugger off and cook us a full friend brekkie if you want to be useful. These negative attitudes won't get us anywhere! Think Can Do Not Won't Do. We Will be fantastic haute couture models of cutting edge wood, rubber and pillows! We Will! so we're allowed to wear rubber then? this might be worth getting up for... ...And I'll load up my camera.

I'll just balance my pillow ever so casually as I saunter in my model walk. See? It barely wobbles. Oh. Nice. But what about the other bits? Well, I got this nice stick pushed through my pillow but I can't seem to balance it or attach it anywhere. Stop whining, or I'll tell you where to put that stick! All right, that's about enough from you, Tough Boy. So Norman has the sticks, right? Where's Norman? Clueless, let me help you out. You go find Norman while I take a nap. Then come back, pile your pillows on the deck chair, and you can both carry me through the fashion parade. All the way back to that castle thingy?

How about: Write and perform a profound-yet-entertaining existentialist musicial comedy with critical-yet-affectionate allusions to Aeschylus, Chekov, Satre, Kabuki Theatre, and the works of Aaron Spelling.

Okay, then. Costumes. Everybody got theirs on? Yes. But these Greek robe thingies....I can't do the Bunny Hop part of the chorus line in them. My legs get all tangled up. You know, my voice really echoes inside this mask. Listen.......ekkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkko. Look, I told you, the Bunny Hop is O-U-T. It's a conga line. Is that right foot in, left foot out? Or left foot in, hop, hop, hop? And give Whiny the scissors to cut off the parts of her sheet dragging on the stage. She's going to break her neck. Help! I can't see through the mask. Where are you all? The eyeholes are too far apart!
