Default The most important rule of all

Looks like most have forgotten the MOST IMPORTANT RULE OF BB

14) THE MOST IMPORTANT RULE OF ALL: Big Brother reserves the right to change the rules at any time.

This rule has been widely known as the most important rule of all since day 1 series 1.

So they can do whatever they want, make any decisions and changes they want as long as they don't deceitfully have the public spending money in a vote then ANYTHING is fair game.

They never have a twist that every single fan of the show will be happy with, people only enjoy the twists if it favours a housemate they like which is obvious, but to shout that everything's a big fix the minute it goes against your housemate is pointless, the twist that affected your favourite might be crap, it might be unfair and so on but it isn't a 'FIX'.

Big Brother reserves the right to change the rules at any time. Big Brother’s decision is final.

The problem is that BB have changed their rules so many times, that any future things will just not be believed...the housemates will become totally complacent.

I like the show still, it still entertains me! I don't mind the twists or anything, even outside contact because it's still entertainment. At the end of the day it is only a tv show.

So if Big Brother decide they want to give Ashleigh immunity, then change their mind because they can change the rules at anytime, the same applies to Helen's immunity?
Or has there been an amendment to the rule and it's now
Big Brother can change the rules at anytime when it involves certain housemates

Those rules are for the housemates, and I think tricking the voting public is taking it a bit to far but whatever.

No the rules always been the same.

Ashleigh wasn't the only power housemate btw.

Last nights twist had nothing to do with Helen but if they decided to remove Helens pass then they are perfectly entitled to do that (not that I think they should) but anything is fair game as long as the public aren't being deceitfully led into spending money.

Well they can't do that obviously because the public spend money voting, unless they do what they done last week and have the housemates do it.

They are always carrying out twists without the public knowing in advance, just because this one involved someone people like doesn't mean it was a trick, it was a twist just the same as all the others this series..

Ah, in which case you're right and it's fair game, they only need to let the public know what is going on if it's their hard earned.

Still distasteful how they can put who they want into the firing line.

Ah Josy... Always defending these charlatans.

BB Spy looks like it's had enough. So TIBB will be the last fansite standing. That's nice.

What they don't like is that they were told repeatedly something other than the truth. They were told it on the show, they were told on BOTS and they were told it in the press releases. Even Emma and Rylan are tweeting of their shock.

Tell me, if they just send in a producer and have him take one of the HMs by the collar and march that person out whilst saying "You're evicted", will you still be here defending the show?

But deceiving the public without costing them money is fair game. They're getting ever closer to the money part it seems to me.

Not defending them as much as being bored of all the fix claims from people when things don't go in favour of their favourites.

Where was all the fix claims when Ashleigh was given the power housemate role after a 'what if' poll on an app that not all of the public has access to or even knows about, there was no official announcement about this 'what if' vote on the highlights, or bots as far as I know. Where was the fix claims then?

BB Spy is going down the drain cause they bar people from saying the most innocuous things. Its not a site for mary Poppins fans, and as long as racism isnt used and people are not calling other forum users names, they should leave it be, but they dont, which is why all the people I used to see on BB Spy are now on here

digital Spy as a whole is dead to me!
