All forums going mad

[Vicky.]

Im viewing DS right now, and they are all going wild over this voting sham.

Other forums are the same.

People are demanding their money back on the c4 site.

People are complaining to ofcom.

People are complaining to c4/endemol/BB.

This recent decision has not gone down well.

But the main thing is, I think the people complaining to ofcom, actually have a point this time. As it IS scamming money to not announce something like this when the lines opened. Many people would have voted differently had they known it was a mass eviction. Some may not have voted at all, as it seems pointless. Wonder if BB have sorted out some sort of loophole for is this happened...or if they expected everyone to be overjoyed that they tried to kill the show.

[Braden]

I'm mad as well, we all know we'll be stuch wit the worst final in Big Brother history.

[Jack_]

I sincerely hope OFCOM get involved...and I never thought I'd say that. This completely awful decision needs scrapping - and fast.

Scrap it and replace it with a Vote to Save. Then you can have your ****ing quadruple eviction.

[serensilver]

its ridiculous! it means for me as a john james fan i will need to vote for everyone else apart from him in order to "save my fav" its stupid! id rather not waste my money and if he goes on friday its only 3 days without him!

[Braden]

Just voted for Steve and JJ :D

[Raph]

that's bollocks, it's ridiculous. :rolleyes:

See they actually could this time I believe.

As people voted without knowing the voting terms. We were not informed about this silly decision beforehand, so it may well be classed as scamming.

I am usually against the ofcom brigade, but I hope to god they make a big enough fuss this time. BB should not be allowed to get away with this :/

I dont get this, is it now voted to save, with 4 people going or is still to evict.:conf:

[Vicky.]

its ridiculous! it means for me as a john james fan i will need to vote for everyone else apart from him in order to "save my fav" its stupid! id rather not waste my money and if he goes on friday its only 3 days without him!

Which is the point that will be made to offcom.

See, before they announced the quadruple, you may have voted for sam, say 12 times...as you knew sam was the second most likely to go.

Now, with them announcing it later on that its actually 4 people going, you would need to vote for another 3 people too. When if you knew about this beforehand, you may have split your 12 votes, between 4 people.

Am I making sense?

[InOne]

It's crazy, they've really screwed it here D:

Could really be going out with a bang after all, but not in the way they wanted

I really dont think they have thought this through...at all :/

[Smithy]

I'd have thought anyone with any common sense would realize that they'd have more than one person evicted :S

[Mystic Mock]

I'd have thought anyone with any common sense would realize that they'd have more than one person evicted :S

but davina should have mentioned it on the night.

[Raph]

I think it's the best twist since the twists in BB7; I really don't see the fuss other than people paranoid about their favorites going.

[Jack_]

It just goes to show that this year they've been making nearly all decisions last-minute.

Sam was given a punishment of not being able to nominate, and now there's no nominations. Clearly a last minute decision.

People shouldn't be able to tell when the production decision was made, it makes it look messy. But that's all it has been this year.

The producers making it up on the spot...and it's worked out awful.

[smudgie]

They can hardly reverse the decision, as it would be a bigger sham, people are now voting for a 4hm eviction.

[Patrick]

WOOP!

I'm Lovin' this now, I'm going to go and complain to OfCom and Channel 4 myself actually, anyone else up for it?
x

Hopefully they take notice and we start uproar.

I sincerely hope OFCOM get involved...and I never thought I'd say that. This completely awful decision needs scrapping - and fast.

Scrap it and replace it with a Vote to Save. Then you can have your ****ing quadruple eviction.

LMFAO at that last part, true though.

I agree I never thought I'd be a OfCom supporter but now I'm all for it.

[Vicky.]

I'd have thought anyone with any common sense would realize that they'd have more than one person evicted :S

Did you also expect people to know there would be four? I doubt it.

[Kate!]

Which is the point that will be made to offcom.

yes, total sense. they are horses asses!

[Vicky.]

I think it's the best twist since the twists in BB7; I really don't see the fuss other than people paranoid about their favorites going.

I hope I see you say the same if corin goes ;)

I have given up on BB this year anyway. But I can still see a voting scam when it is blatantly happening.

[Patrick]

They can hardly reverse the decision, as it would be a bigger sham, people are now voting for a 4hm eviction.

They COULD do it actually and give refunds and they best do it very fast.

[Ninastar]

I dont understand? Whats actually happened?

[Braden]

I dont understand? Whats actually happened?

The producers have decided to make the eviction a quadruple, meaning four people will go.

[Vicky.]

I dont understand? Whats actually happened?

It is now officially a quadrouple eviction.

With now warning or anything.

People who have already voted will HAVE to vote more to balance their votes out if they actually care about BB.

They are scamming people, right infront of their faces...

[Mystic Mock]

I dont understand? Whats actually happened?

4 are going this evicton and big brother made out it was a single eviction at first.

but i dont mind anyway as long as sam is gone.

[Mr XcX]

Pathetic.

[vesavius]

I dont understand? Whats actually happened?

Whats happened?

Just an immense drama over reaction by some forum users because they see their faves now being threatened with the boot. :dance:

[arista]

"People are demanding their money back on the c4 site."


They Are Deluded then.

[Smithy]

Did you also expect people to know there would be four? I doubt it.

I expected 3, 4 is not much difference :P

[Ninastar]

people are acting like they ave been torturing the HM's or something

[MrGaryy]

the only problem i have with it is that the big characters that have made the series are clearly going go

[Raph]

Whats happened?

Just an immense drama over reaction by some forum users because they see their faves now being threatened with the boot. :dance:

exactly. No matter who goes, it's a phenomenal twist :hugesmile:

[Vicky.]

the only problem i have with it is that the big characters that have made the series are clearly going go

Well thats exactly why I dont like it...but thats just my problem. BB have done nothing wrong on that part really...

I'm talking about the people who have already spent money and will now have to spend more, and those who would have voted differently had they known in advance.

I do actually think BB has royally ****ed up here...by not announcing this yesterday.

[Tom4784]

I think it's the best twist since the twists in BB7; I really don't see the fuss other than people paranoid about their favorites going.

You do know that chances are Maro or Corin (potentially both) could go as well? You wouldn't support it then.

It's the worst move they've ever made, It's obvious now that the big characters will go.

[muchadoaboutnothing]

The producers have decided to make the eviction a quadruple, meaning four people will go.

I don't disbelieve what you are saying but how do you know the producers have decided to make the eviction a quadruple? Is it on the BB website or did you read about it in the papers? If it was the later then I wouldn't take too much notice of it. However I am curious as to where all this has come from!!!!!!!!!!

[vesavius]

You do know that chances are Maro or Corin (potentially both) could go as well? You wouldn't support it then.

It's the worst move they've ever made, It's obvious now that the big characters will go.

Eh? lol, mario and Corin are some of the nasty ****ers I am talking about :thumbs:

Both can go Tues for all I care.

[Jack_]

I'm just wondering how much sh!t this could land the show in if OFCOM got involved...would be a hefty fine, surely? An early axe even?

Still, I'm glad they've made the mistake of not informing us - at least it gives us some ground to complain and try to get it changed.

It's honestly the worst production decision I have ever seen.

[smudgie]

Well thats exactly why I dont like it...but thats just my problem. BB have done nothing wrong on that part really...

I do actually think BB has royally ****ed up here...by not announcing this yesterday.

Hopefully if anyone complains they will get a refund. I don't know how BB stand legally on this.

[Bigbrofan25]

This is a total set up for Josie to win by Channel 4

Sam won`t even make the final now cos of this:eek:

[Tom4784]

Eh? lol, mario and Corin are some of the nasty ****ers I am talking about :thumbs:

Both can go Tues for all I care.

They are his favourites, i'm saying he is only supporting the twist because he thinks they'll be safe.

[Bigbrofan25]

And your finalists are Andrew Mario JJ Josie Corin:sleep::sleep:

[flamingGalah!]

I think it's the best twist since the twists in BB7; I really don't see the fuss other than people paranoid about their favorites going.

THIS ^^^^

Whats happened?

Just an immense drama over reaction by some forum users because they see their faves now being threatened with the boot. :dance:

AND THIS ^^^^

And yes my favourite Corin could be evicted too, but so what? It ends four days after anyway...

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

Only thing im not liking this twist for, its going to be awful rush on Friday.

[vesavius]

This twist will make for some GREAT emotionally charged tv over the next few days.

Surely thats what we all want?

[stonedape]

Quadruple with vote to evict makes me very nervous for the final, but I don't really think it's a "scam". It's a twist for the viewers, and you've been asking for more all series. The money spent on votes is still valid and will go to evict the least favorite this week, it's just everyone is 4x more vulnerable so voting is encouraged. They're not forcing anyone to pay more money.

I think triple would have been unprecedented enough, but I'm not bothered. The public have actually been pretty good at getting out the bores over the entertainment (Nathan, Rachel, Jo) this BB: don't **** it up now guys.

[leigh17]

Any one who thinks theyl be gettin there money bk should read point 8, 9, & 10 in the voting terms and conditons on the c4 website.

[setanta]

This twist will make for some GREAT emotionally charged tv over the next few days.

It's what you want cuz Josie is safe from it. You'd be having a fit right now if she was up for eviction too.

[Vicky.]

Valid yes.

But some people would no doubt have voted a lot differently, if we were informed of this 'twist' beforehand.

Why not announce it last night? Why today...thats what doesnt make sense to me at all.

[vesavius]

another forum user presuming to know me or how I would react... :rolleyes:

Umm...

So...?

[*mazedsalv**]

I know everyones going mad!!

By the way I changed my username, used to me *mazedsalv**

No, it's YOUR truth. You need to learn to seperate opinion from fact.

That name was so iconic with the stars :(
LOL We'll get use to it though :)

Why do you have only 4 posts and no avatar yet it says you joined in June 2008? :shocked:

[setanta]

No, it's YOUR truth. You need to learn to seperate opinion from fact.

I just think you're relieved that she's avoided this possible early exit and you're taking far too great a delight in getting involved in this debate, that's all. All fun and games when your fav hasn't got their head on the chopping block.

[stonedape]

Valid yes.

But some people would no doubt have voted a lot differently, if we were informed of this 'twist' beforehand.

Why not announce it last night? Why today...thats what doesnt make sense to me at all.

I admit it would have made more sense to announce it last night, maybe they're flying by the seat of their pants a bit, but I still see it as a twist and an inevitable one when you consider the HM # and time frame.

If it was the day before eviction, the rip off argument might carry water. But there's still a whole week left of voting...the only thing it affects is how many people are walking out the door, it doesn't invalidate anyone's votes. Planned or not, it's caused a stir outside the house and will cause one inside, and that's what I want as a viewer. This is not a Nikki-back-in disaster by any means.

[vesavius]

Again, thats your opinion, based on not knowing me or my perspective on life.

maybe if you stopped to ask questions rather then pushing your own version of the truth via groundless statements you might learn more.

Just a thought.

That username is still active.

it makes no sense why salv would randomly start a new account :conf:

According to C4, no. They say housemates not pictured may also be chosen. It's just the promo pic for it.

Lol, defend yourself all you want, but deep down I know and you know baby.

You've been her most loyal supporter, so it stands to reason that you're absolutely delighted she's not involved in this fiasco, and that you'll be enjoying all the tension and drama as it unfolds this week.

And because of this fact, I don't take anything you say regarding this voting botch up seriously.

A few weeks ago, I'd be feeling the same way, but Josie pisses me off more and more each day.

I'm still very supportive of John James.

Think want you want, I don't know you and it dosent make it true.

You can take what I say however you wish, it means little to me, all I can say is that my stance on this is my true one whatever. Do what you want with that, I'm done discussing it.

But yeah, I am REALLY glad Josie has come through the ****storms she has been subjected to all the stronger, despite BBs and the hardcore fans of other HMs efforts to the contrary.

Josie to win, she has defined this series :dance:

How do you feel about Sam, vesavius?

[vesavius]

How do you feel about Sam, vesavius?

Well, at the start he gave me some good TV (I love a good villian and was rooting for Josie all through it), and that was cool.

Now he is just Josie's pet monkey.


I mean, watch this... http://bb-cache.channel4.com/bigbrother/video/2010/Jul/30/exclusive-new-housemate-sam-interviewed/play.c4

None of that lasted long eh?

In the end, he is just yet another HM who has tried to use Josie to get some TV time and play the public.

[umad]

This twist will make for some GREAT emotionally charged tv over the next few days.

Surely thats what we all want?

If Josie wasn't safe you wouldn't say that.

[vesavius]

If Josie wasn't safe you wouldn't say that.

oh here we go, another pocket psychologist.

See above for my reply.

One goes, four goes, who cares, the only thing I care about is that skippy goes.

thats a very good point!

[billy123]

the only problem i have with it is that the big characters that have made the series are clearly going goexactly! thats all it is kids and people of low intelligence getting pissy because their little dreamboat boy is going its pathetic.
some people need to grow up they wanted drama well you got it enjoy!

[Jords]

Its very stupid, a double eviction would have worked fine with another just missing out on the Monday when its a vote to win!

This is going to ensure both John James and Sam are gone leaving a 2-horse race between the girls...

[boomoo]

but davina should have mentioned it on the night.

I am sure today is saturday. I knew last night, Friday it was vote to evict.
