Default Do you want tokens and the jail to return or not?

For BB9, we were introduced to the token system which would give housemates priveledges, and also the jail.

What did you think about those, and would you like to see them back?

Personally, I am not too bothered about the token system. They can get rid of it or keep it, but it doesn't make too much different to the show. I think it's just a ploy by Endemol to fill the airtime with silly tasks to gain these tokens. It can be quite tedious viewing sometimes.

As for the jail: I thought in its form last year, it was an utter waste. When a housemate went to jail, they would still be allowed to talk to the other housemates. They were allowed to leave jail for pee breaks, etc.

I think if the jail does return, I would much rather it return in another form such as solitary requirement. It would be good to have a room separate from the main bulk of the house where the punished housemates are sent, so they cannot talk to anyone. AT least that will make them learn from their mistakes.

In saying that, it could be boring viewing for the viewers. So I'm not entirely sure.

Your opinions?

No and no.

Unless the jail is away from the main House so the HMs think the offender has been evicted.

i think that money for food should come out of the final prize fund. then what ever is left the winner gets.

so water costs money
electricity costs money,
tasks failed cost you money

tasks passed wins money.

warnings costs money,
not getting up cost money.

so it will really get the housemates motivated...

Tokens idea was good... in reality though didn't quite play out as best as it could!

I would like to see the Jail come back in some sort of way.

I would like to see the housemates have to really try in the tasks and make an effort. If BB doesn't think they made an effort and failed the task, the housemate that wasn't trying should go to jail or something as well. BB could be really mean in the jail and like play really annoying music over and over or drop a load of rotten food on them every 10 minutes

Also I like the idea of housemates having to pay for; water, electricity, rent and food... I also think they should pay for being kept INSIDE the house. Some sort of punishment should happen if they fail the task and can't afford to pay for HM's to stay in the house.

Also who thinks that BB should make getting the shopping more interesting? They could make a little pretend shopping centre next to the house and all the food is fake but they still put it in and it looks like a real super market. They even get trollies and 5 housemates MUST choose what they are having and all have to stay around the trolley. It would be like watching a really awkward family
Oh and when they receive the shopping they have to go to the supermarket to pick it up and they have to wheel it in on trollies.

Yes, I do agree. But I think BB10 might have some old ideas thrown in to "celebrate the tenth anniversary".

Both were good in theory, but both could have been better executed. I do like the idea of some sort of currency in the house, other than the shopping budget, which HMs can sneak to the diary room in exchange for something else.

Make a better jail with a toilet in it so they dont have to go for toilet breaks, and a hole in the ceiling where big brother can drop slime, food ect on them

Yes. Make the jail extended like it was in Celeb BB, put it close to a lot of temptations like maybe a barbaque or something that would really p*ss them off!
