The "twist" was quite pointless when 90% of the series was F2F nominations. BB16 was all about the production trying to fix the plot because it wasn't delivering like they thought it will. Too-nice Nick got the nominations twist? let's make everyone nominate face to face. The housemates don't explode in the first 2 weeks? let's replace 4 of them with loud and feisty ones. Marc won't survive long? let's give him immunity week after week. The housemates still don't start a war? ummm take Helen and Nikki and Aisleyne and Brian to do the dirty job! They all nice and happy 2 weeks before the final? let's bring the money twist.
They tried very hard to make it explosive but the housemates just didn't play along.

In the last series of our local version they had a mix of BB15&16 launch twist with eternal nominee, pass to the final, eternal F2F nominations 2 hms as one eternally etc. After each housemate got his/her own "verdict", their first task was to get everyone exchange it among themselves. The F2F nominations moved from one of the boring housemates to the most explosive housemate and the villain of the series. He destroyed each and everyone of them with his public nominations, very personal, very vile, more than Helen could be. It brought a lot of action and a big divide to the house, but it wasn't a nice view and quite hard to watch. Was it worth it? without a doubt - no.
