If the regular nomination rules were in tact that week, Caroline would've easily been evicted. If anything, putting everyone up helped her. The fact that she was still evicted when there was a twist designed to help her just shows how much she sucks. They've reopened the lines before so it's not rigging.

Not fishy, the whole 8 way was an attempt at saving Caroline. It would have been her, Deana and Luke A up if they hadn't done the twist, so it helped her if anything.

joeysteele
14-08-2012, 11:15 PM
It didn't say who topped the voes in the 8 way eviction, Emma got a bit lost on that one even saying Ashleigh going.
So Deana topped the votes 3 times of the 5 evictions she was in,if she topped the 8 way one too then that was 4 but I don't recall being told who topped that vote.
Either way, she fought as many evictions as Aaron last year and did far worse than him.also she didn't win either,in fact she wasn't even the runner up in the end so hopefully the comparisons with Aaron last year are done now.
I have to admit as being really surprised at the gap between her and Lydia in their head to head and also really shocked at Conor taking over 80% of the vote in his head to head with Shievonne.
That must be the biggest margin ever almost.
Where on earth though were the Arron supporters in the 4way eviction, I voted over 150 times for him that week and he still only got 12.8% of the vote, what was his supporters doing?
Oh well, that's how it goes sometimes I guess.
mirak_eel
14-08-2012, 11:16 PM
The only reason Conor topped that vote against Shievonne is because Shievonne was being a Grade A prat that week. And in a head to head, people can vote to save the other housemate, so the housemate they don't like, is evicted.
Macie Lightfoot
14-08-2012, 11:19 PM
The only reason Shievonne got <20% of the vote is because she's a black girl. If you think that's one of the biggest margins ever, you must be new.
And the comparisons between Deana/Aaron have been bogus. They have primarily the same fanbase, but they're a lot different themselves.

Conor clearly though was more popular with the voting public than some Deana fans indicated he was or gave him credit for being so, that is also a clear fact.
However where he and Deana were up for eviction,(obviously they never were head to head), she did poll more than him in those situations.

Because you brought up fact Siobhan was black as a factor against Conor " deranged black girl" to quote you. Its irrelevant and offensive. Caz is deranged but you dont hear me calling her a deranged white girl. Also if Siobhan was up week 1 she may have beaten Conor as she was 2nd fav.

Well she is black and it as a factor against Conor. It's completely relevant. How many times has a black girl survived a head to head eviction? They almost always get evicted the first time they're up. I'm just stating facts and showing the inherent racism (and sexism) that comes with the general voting public. You can break down nearly every eviction just by the stereotyping. "Hot" Irish personal trainer will win almost every time, especially against argumentative black girl.
Caroline being a deranged white girl has nothing to do with it, I don't think you understood my point at all.
Because of the inherent racism and sexism of the voting public.
uh-huh. everyone's racist and sexist but you.:sleep:
seems to me two of the top three are visible minorities.and one of those is a minority female. yes, the racism and sexism is overwhelming. ntm, the winner is a transgendered person. the voting public is obviously pretty open minded and fair. but please dont let that get in the way of your holier than thou condescending twaddle.

Why are you so desperate to invalidate Deana's popularity? She topped the vote 3/4 times where they were revealed [it was not revealed who topped the vote Week 8]. She came in 3rd place with 21.47% of the vote - which is more than past 3rd placers David, Mario, Liam, Makosi, Daniel, Dean, and Darren. The only housemates who have gotten a higher 3rd place percentage are Aisleyne BB7 (22%), Sara BB9 (30.1%), Scott BB4 (27%), and Alex BB3 (27%). Also keep in mind - the BB13 percentages are out of 5 while the others are out of 3, so it's likely that Deana did get the highest percentage of votes for 3rd place ever (or at least behind Sara).

Good job ignoring my point. I never said everyone's racist and sexist. I just said that there's inherent racism and sexism when it comes to the voting. This show's been around for more than a decade, it's easy to see the voting tendencies. Being transgendered is irrelevant after Nadia and Sam (who nearly beat Nikki in a head to head.)
The public is far from being open minded and fair. A guy does one thing and is called a legend, a girl does the same thing and is written off to be crucified and is evicted in a landslide. If a black girl is not mute, she's labeled a aggressive or argumentative and is swiftly evicted as soon as she's nominated. There's nothing holier than thou or condescending about it, it's just the facts. If you can't see it without someone having to spell it out for you then god help you.

And Gary Glitter would probably get a higher % than Hitler. Doesn't mean he's popular.
Percentage is no indication of popularity of people in the house (vs all the others in the house) unless everyone is up for eviction the same week. But then I'm sure you understand this and are just trolling as usual... If you actually believe what you say then I guess that shows something about the intellectual level of debate you're capable of.

With full and total respect I diasagree with so little information from BB.
By your logic then, Deana's very large result against Lydia is also virtually meaningless too if percentages are that unimportant.
Since although it's true that Conor and Deana never had a head to head so we cannot compare that,Conor also had a very large near 65% win over both Lydia and Victoria in the first 3 way eviction or is that another eviction battle that is meaningless because Conor won it?
Also, presumably, you do actually know the actual totals of all votes cast in each eviction to be able to say the percentages are meaningless.

With full and total respect I diasagree with so little information from BB.
By your logic then, Deana's very large result against Lydia is also virtually meaningless too if percentages are that unimportant.
Since although it's true that Conor and Deana never had a head to head so we cannot compare that,Conor also had a very large near 65% win over both Lydia and Victoria in the first 3 way eviction or is that another eviction battle that is meaningless because Conor won it?

We can say what would happen in a Deana vs. Conor eviction, seen as though she got double his votes in the four way. She would have completely annihilated him into oblivion. He got 80% because it was white man v. black woman.

You can guess what may have happened you cannot say for sure.Head to heads can bring about very different results.
Hence my point, as to Conor and Shievonne,if the public and people really wanted him out for whatever, then all they had to do was vote for Shievonne but people didn't do that,so what happened to the massive anti Conor brigade that was supposed to exist.
Equally so, I would guess,not say for sure,that in a head to head with Conor,Deana likely would have won it, however those who really disliked Deana in that head to head would have only needed to vote Conor to get her out too.
Many supporters of many other housemates did not care for Deana,that could have played a major part as to what may have happened in a head to head between them.
Nothing likely certain at all.
For instance also in the 4 way eviction Arron only got 12.8% of the vote, had Arron not been up that week those votes may have gone to Conor.They for sure would not have gone to Becky or Deana.
