URGENT NOTICE
Dear Viewers,
As you may know, today was supposed to be the first Guillotine Ceremony of our little game. Mr. Melville, as Head Thinker, was tasked with choosing two of his fellow HouseAuthors to be put up for decapitation. When it came time for the ceremony, however, Mr. Melville locked himself in his room, and refused to come out to fulfill his obligations as Head Thinker. No matter what the HouseAuthors said to him, all Mr. Melville responded with was “I’d prefer not to.” We are currently dealing with the situation as we speak, but our producers believe it is in everyone’s best interests if the ceremony is postponed until tomorrow afternoon.
Fret not, faithful viewers! Once reason reaches Mr. Melville’s ears, the game shall be back even bigger and better than before!

Week One: Ideal Reveal
HouseAuthors, the Ideal you’ll be focusing on for tomorrow’s Head Thinker Challenge is…
Predestination & Social Mobility
Our Enlightened Realm has cast off all notions of predestination in favor of complete free will. There is no higher power that’s already planned out the path we’ll take in life – it’s all up to us.
Our choices.
Our decisions.
Our future.
We have also cast off the shackles of the Great Chain of Being, and fully believe that those that work hard enough can rise in social ranks if that’s what they so desire. In fact, everyone in our Realm strives to be in the highest of high social classes!

Welcome, HouseAuthors!
Our ten HouseAuthors have arrived at the Enlightened House, and all appear ready to compete. They’ve been given some free time to settle in and get to know one another.
Tolstoy has taken the initiative to redecorate the House, but the general consensus among the rest of the HouseAuthors is that nothing he does really looks any different from how the House looked before. Woolf and Sor Juana left the common area to talk further out in the backyard, leaving Rossetti alone to listen to Baudelaire reminisce about a particular trip to the park he took a few weeks ago. In the kitchen, Xun suffered a panic attack after opening the bread drawer. He’s expected to make a full recovery in time for Tuesday’s Head Thinker Challenge.
