FANBLOGS LIVE! - Week 6

This weeks live chat will be starting Saturday at 11 AM ET.

Last week we experimented with the panelists and producer options. The result is that a few of you all have been invited to be producers this week, if you should chose to accept this mission.

Jobs of a producer:
Primary: DON'T HIT THE RED CIRCLE WITH AN X IN IT THAT CLOSES THE CHAT
Secondary: Say what you would say if you were not a producer
Other: Approve people joining the chat

It will last until the end of the 8 PM games or the halftime of the BYU-UNLV game (whichever is latter), or until one of the newly invited producers ends their career as a producer by accidentally ending it. (In the latter case check back here after 10-15 minutes to see if a new chat room has been started)

Other than that, no changes this week:
1) No imposters.
2) No personal attacks/vendettas.

If you are making your first post it might take a couple minutes to show up, as the moderators may be getting another beverage, be distracted with a particularly good game or obsessively researching some stat somewhere. Once your first post shows up you should be good to go, unless you leave and come back. The additional producers should help with this.

Keep it clean, fun, and feel free to knock a team when they are down (Didn't Illinois used to be respectable?) and celebrate your team when they are up. This is a drinking game, but I'll leave the details on those rules up to you!

If you have access to twitter but not our website (on your phone at the game maybe?) you will be able to post comments to the chat once it is started by including #fanblogslive in any tweets during the games.

Enjoy week 6! May the best teams (or your team) win!
