Every season my group chat turns into a spreadsheet war.
Who got HOH. Who flubbed the veto. Who just got backdoored. Someone always “has the points” in a Google Sheet that nobody trusts by week 4.
So I built HouseDraft — fantasy leagues for Big Brother–style seasons. Invite friends, snake-draft the cast, score every twist as it happens, trade for a backdoor, and crown a league champion on finale night.
What I built
The full season loop in one app:
- Invite → snake draft → weekly scoring → trades → predictions → finale
- Live draft room with snake order and “on the clock” clarity
- Commissioner scoring for HOH, veto, noms, evictions, and season twists
- Leaderboard + Diary Room Receipts so every point has a paper trail
- 1-for-1 trades (optional commissioner approval) that don’t rewrite history
The sticky idea
Points follow whoever owned the houseguest when the event happened.
Alice drafts X, banks 20 points, then trades X to Bob. Alice keeps the 20. Bob only scores from that moment forward.
Rosters are ownership intervals — not static lists — so the leaderboard stays honest through the chaos of trades.
Built with
Next.js 16 + React 19 + TypeScript, Supabase Auth/Postgres (RLS + RPCs for draft/scoring integrity), Tailwind v4, deployed on Vercel.

HouseDraft
Draft the house. Win eviction night.
Fantasy leagues for Big Brother–style reality competition seasons — snake-draft the cast, score every twist, trade for a backdoor, and crown a league champion on finale night.
Overview
Reality-TV fans already argue about HOH winners, veto plays, and blindsides all season long — but most “fantasy” setups are spreadsheets, group chats, or season-specific one-offs. HouseDraft turns that energy into a real product: create a league with friends, draft houseguests into rosters, let a commissioner score episode events as they happen, and watch a live leaderboard through finale night.
Built for friends who watch together, commissioners who want clean scoring without spreadsheet chaos, and anyone who wants season-long stakes beyond “who wins the show.”
Highlights
- Full season loop in one app — invite → snake draft → weekly scoring → trades → predictions → finale bonuses → champion.
- Database-backed game integrity — draft picks…
What’s next
Realtime draft room (polling works today), richer trade packages, and “you’re on the clock” digests.
Not affiliated with any network or franchise — fan-made fantasy for people who already argue about the veto.

Ownership intervals deserve invariant tests. Verify every score belongs to exactly one owner when trades overlap event boundaries.
