Oh, **** you C4

[Jack_]

Seriously. We wait all this time for the eye and then they decide to release it early whilst many people are at work/school?

I wasn't even excited when I saw the thread as it'd already reached five pages.

They ****ed up once again.

[Princess]

Why are you complaining? You got it didn't you?

[Shaun]

...so they're supposed to wait until you've got home, sat down, got some popcorn ready and don't need the toilet?

[Beastie]

Why? Because you wasn't one of the first to see the eye? ;)

[Smithy]

Why are you complaining? You got it didn't you?

It's not like it matters when you see the eye



Although I can see Patrick storming in here soon making the same complaint

[Jack_]

Yeah, we got it, but at a time when hardly anyone would have expected it. What happened to midnight embargoes?

[Kazakh]

You should be unemployed, never miss a thing then;)

[Smithy]

God, you people are never pleased, Your pissed when it isn't released when it's rumored to leak, and your pissed when it's released because your not there.

C4 can't base it schedule around y'all!

[Twilight]

Ermm its like only a Eye.

[Saph]

i dont see why we have to get it at a certain time of day :S it makes for a nice suprise when you get home!

Yeah a nice surprise than counting down to 12pm everynight!!! :hugesmile:

It's just the fact that people have been waiting night after night for a week now for the eye to be released at the expected time of midnight, and then they go and release it during the day when most people are at work/school/college, and they miss the immediate excitement of it being released.

[Smithy]

In fairness anyone over the age of 15 I think are on study leave, and people who are at work can check, like Niamh.

And I doubt everyone has been waiting up, just harcore fans :P

PMSL well its the last one so its not like it is going to be a regular thing to piss you off now is it?

[MrGaryy]

Who. gives. a. ****?

get over it my god, how immature, you have your eye, just cos you don't get to see it before most other people shouldn't take away from the experience...

[dj2k10]

correct smithy the good thing about study leave ;)

[Smithy]

ikr :thumbs2:

I got back from my exam this morning and like 10 minutes later I was ooh look the eye :p

Yeah, and it's the hardcore fans they should care about the most, considering we're the ones that have stuck by it year after year.

When I saw the mid-day release, I suspected there would be a thread like this. I suspected Joe might have been the one to start it :)

just wait till patrick gets here...

Well said Smithy, some people are just never happy:rolleyes:

[Locke.]

School kids are too young to watch Big Brother, so the makers won't care if you see the eye or not :)

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

Oh joy

Just what i was thinking:rolleyes:

I dont mind what time they release it, means i wont have to keep staying up till midnight now :) & I saw it when i was at school during dinner anyway so.....

[janaddy86]

Haven't all kids got smartphones with web access now :)

[Maia]

just wait till patrick gets here...

I can't wait to see what he makes of all this. :D

[Shaun]

take away from the experience...

to describe seeing the Big Brother eye for the first time as "an experience" is a bit much :tongue:

For god's sake it's a picture, it got released and now you've seen it. It doesn't matter when you saw it, some people just love to complain.

[Shasown]

Its all a question of priorities Shaun, some people just havent got things in perspective.

[Captain.Remy]

It's a nice surprise for me who's coming back from work. I didn't expect it so I like it even more. I like surprises, and this is a nice one.

The last thing I will ever do is make a formal complaint about a TV show.

The OFCOM brigade takes part responsibility for the demise of Big Brother.

It was going to be released early Monday but it was bought forward.

They may have them doesnt mean they know how to use them.

All the gear, no idea?

[Jack_]

By 'early' do you mean midnight?

I guess it's better having it released today, I just think breaking the usual embargo time that we are all used to seems a bit...well...stupid.

No.

haha i saw the eye before you

[Enid]

I KNOW! I mean, the least they can do is read our mind and release it at midnight when most people are asleep anyway. But who cares about them? **** YOU C4.

Okay, I see your point. But 11AM on a Friday morning?

5PM? 6PM? 7PM? They'd have been more reasonable times, no?

[Enid]

I don't see a problem with it. They can release it when they want, surely. It's not some competition to be the first to see it. Just appreciate it.

Some people are never satisfied.

But it was to catch the fans that go home for lunch and don't have school dinners. That's why it was released then.

[Shasown]

I saw it within 10 minutes of it being released pmsl.



Does that get the envy juices flowing or what?




Does it sting like a bitch knowing they did it deliberately to hack off all the tweenies who would be at school today?






Mwahahahahahaha

Of course they can release it when they want, I just find the time they picked stupid.

There's anticipation with a midnight embargo, without one, there isn't.

But it was to catch the fans that go home for lunch and don't have school dinners. That's why it was released then.

But that's a very small demographic.

Releasing it at a time where all, or most fans would have been at home would've been more reasonable.

[Blink_Me]

Jeez.... it's only an eye.

[Captain.Remy]

See Y'all should take a page from Remy's book

Thanks :hugesmile:

+ may I add that a midnight embargo was a nightmare for me as midnight in UK is 1am in France so I had to stood up until then. And when you have to get your ass up at 6am the next morning, it's not good.

[janaddy86]

So midnight is better?

[Captain.Remy]

Releasing it at a time where all, or most fans would have been at home would've been more reasonable.

Come on mate, it was going to be in the papers and all over the internet the next morning, you'd have seen it somehow.

And it's not like the biggest event ever. I mean, as much as I love BB, the launch is the most exciting thing of all and that's what really matters.

[Jack_]

So midnight is better?

Well not necessarily, but an embargo until a reasonable time is.

[Lucy.]

It's just the fact that people have been waiting night after night for a week now for the eye to be released at the expected time of midnight, and then they go and release it during the day when most people are at work/school/college, and they miss the immediate excitement of it being released.

I think the moral of this story is don't be tragic and wait till 12 midnight for a logo to be released.
In C4's defence, they probably figure daylight hours are MORE reasonable for their tweeny fans than midnight.

Oh, I know. I just like the anticipation of an embargo at a time when most fans can wait for it.

Because you know it's coming, and you can see it when it comes. It's the build up I like. This way I think is just...dull.

[janaddy86]

Well not necessarily, but an embargo until a reasonable time is.

Who decides what is reasonable?

[Patrick]

Must agree here,

I got home and went on MSN and the news popped up and in A SMALL THUMBNAIL which just spoilt it all..

'Channel 4 release Big Brother 11 Eye'
And I was like 'YESSS' but at the same time 'YOU BASTARDS' because of the way it was released.

Also I got into MSN and bloody Jessica had already made an emoticon for it again in small, which just spoilt it.

It was all hard to take in, all I wanted to do was to go on TiBB And see it in all its glory on a thread but instead its all over the net in and stuff and I was like 'WOW Slow down'

[pinkmichk]

:laugh3: people are really getting cross cos of when the eye was released i've seen it all on here now

[Jack_]

Who decides what is reasonable?

A 'reasonable time' is a time in which the majority of fans will be able to view it, when it arrives.

Considering most people have finished work/education by 5/6PM, I think anytime after this is 'reasonable'.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

Ah right, I always assumed that it was sent out several hours in advance to the release.

Its not just my school hours is it?
Its every person in the country that goes to school and work too.
