Hi Guys, slight problem here.

Basicly a mate of mine started a joke/rumour that I was having a house party on new years eve, I was never intending to, and my parents would never let me.

I thought it would all just blow over giving it a couple of weeks. That was a month ago and it hasn't, the whole of my year at school (about 300 people) now are planning to turn up, I have told them all that I'm not having a party, but they still carry on about it spreading the rumour through the school.

I'm out on new years eve anyway with my family so that itself isn't a problem, however I have a worry that a couple of the kids in my year may decide to break into my house with everyone else there.

I don't want to tell my parents cause then they will worry and take it all over the top. I also don't want to get all official about stopping the party cause there are loads of hot girls in my year and if I decide that I'm going to be all nerdy about stopping this party then thats going to mess up my chances with them, ever.

Any help/ideas/advice.

Thanks
Luke


Edit: Someone has just posted about the idea of me having a party on facebook and within 30seconds it had 11 likes and 5 comments. I'm still hoping that this will burn itself out before new years but thats looking increasingly unlikely.
 
Direct it to the friend that started the rumour. Say something like 'Well, we're having it at his house now...'

I will try that however the problem I also have is that because I'm kinda quite nerdy people are taking this as a way to get at me not just to have a party. Where as they won't do that to the mate who started the rumour.

I guess that 80% of people won't turn up but its the 20% which are the nutcases that will turn up.
 
Cancel the party. 5 years from now it won't matter. Thats when the girls really get good. Dont worry about the high school ones.

How to cancel it though, as soon as anyone mentions it I tell them that its not happening, however the news is still spreading.
 
Just post on facebook it was all a rumor man. There are always other parties.

THATS WHAT I'M TRYING. I have told everyone that its not happening however they say they are still going anyway.
 
How old are your peers if they're convinced that you can host a house party of over 300 people? There is probably something else behind this if the entire year is in on it and refuses to listen to you. Most people will just accept it if the host cancels, or never actually arranged the thing in the first place, instead of insisting on going anyway. At your age most of them are probably in on it just to pretend they're hardcore, and that they can manage their drink (If they even drink at all). There's something fishy going there, or your fellow students are just very immature.

Perhaps call the cops to come that day for trespassing? Will it be possible to arrange the cops to come on the day the rumors set? Honestly if they won't stay away I'd call the cops and tell your parents that you are being forced to have a party with 300 people. I bet your parents would not be happy with a broken house(Since you said there is people who don't respect you and would break in) so I'm sure they would be glad to know it.
 
Get a paintball gun for when they show up, they'll get the message. But seriously, maybe have it at your "friend's" house or rent a hotel room or something.. Just saying.
 
So everyone at your school thinks it's hilarious to tell you that they're going to your house even though they know you're not having a party? You sir, are being mass-trolled.

Yeah, because getting your house broken into and ruined is worth it just to try and impress some random girls at school who, in the end, will turn out to be ugly freaks who nobody likes or cares for because the yobs all had a go on them back when they were popular.

Plus, these guys are basically trolling you. They know it won't happen and if they break into your house it's not like you've not got any evidence, is it? They seem to be loving going on about it on Facebook.
 
Anyone that says that they're going to your "house party", just say:

"What party? The party at my house? Oh Lord, stop it! You're making me laugh too much! Hahahahahahahaha! No. It. Will. Never. Happen."

Just say it in a dead-pan voice that it's never happening and just keep your cool with it. They'll soon move onto another victim.
 
1.1 Go to facebook, make a public event at your friends house, invite everybody, not just your year, everybody.
1.2 Call over gay strippers at your friends house, order food, drinks, all at your friends house
1.3 Order some gay magasins at our friends house before new year as a teaser, he will like the outcome (pun?)

2.Ask your neighbours to take a look at your house at new year and call the cops if they suspect something.

3.Don't tell everyone what your doing, it's a surprise

=Last time someone going to troll you.
 
First of all, it seems to "get your goat", so they keep talking about it.
If you have access to the FB announcement, simply change the address to the address for the police station, and make it a BYOB, and bring a dessert event.
Then tell everyone how much you're looking forward to seeing them at your "house".

One of the best ways to derail people that are teasing you, is to give them no room to escalate.
For instance, if they call you fat, you say "Damn, I am pretty fluffy. Good thing I'm jolly too!
Or "You are the ultimate nerd!"
reply. "You're damn skippy! Maybe, I'll turn out like that Bill Gates dude! Oh, and what was your name again, in case your resume' comes across my desk?"
You've addressed the commentary, agreed with it, added some humor of your own. You've just sucked all the fun out of "piling on" more commentary. And if they do pile on more commentary, who looks like the jackass? Not you.
Learn this skill, employ it regularly.

LBSF1 !!!!! not lbsf

I know what hardly any of the people who have threatened to turn up will however my worry is that a couple of the schools druggy nutcases will decide to turn up and break into my house.

The address change won't work as my mates know my address.

I try all the witty responses for insults already, I'm nerdy and I will get a better job than most of them so that doesn't bother me.

Thanks guys for the advice.

If people have heard about this via Facebook, then any potential burglar will have a digital paper trail back to them won't they?

You aren't nerdy. You compete in competitive go karting. In my books, that isn't nerdy.

Where's my invite?

I thought you were coming to my party?

In all seriousness lbsf1, I know it's a little morbid, but you could invent an uncle who "dies" the day before the party. That way you'll save face and maybe people will feel guilty.

If people still persist with the "party", then you have to tell your parents. You've done nothing wrong.
 
Best. Idea. Ever.

"Decorate" your house to either look like a house full of spirits, or the house has been broken into by a raging man with a chainsaw and spill red liquid all over the front porch. Let's see someone try to walk in there while you're out. :P

But in all honesty, your house should be more valuable to you than a bunch of people who barely know you...house comes first!
