this years twist / theme

[Halfwit]

if you didn't watch last nights bit on the side i guess this could be considered spoiler, you have been warned.

just noticed a trend in the personal tasks/challenges/secret missions, so far deana, shievonne and rebecca had challenges and every single one of them got exposed by big brother in front of the other housemates.
after seeing deana cry because she felt used by rebecca it clicked for me that the producers used this strategy to create tension between housemates 3 times already.

do you think this will keep happening for the rest of the season and can it be considered this years twist?

I wouldn't so much call it a twist as a series of deliberate, and somewhat desperate, attempts by the producers to cause conflict. But hey, it's working :shrug:

I wouldn't call it desperate, I would call it messing with their heads, which is classic BB. Nice to see it introduced so early as well, no time to settle in just bish bash bosh.

i wouldt call it a twist either, and we have seen this kind of task for years..

i have a hard time calling it a twist as well that's why i put the /theme in the thread title, but i have a feeling they could call it twist in production meetings.

[...] and we have seen this kind of task for years..

yes we have, but they used this device very rarely, i would think once or twice at most per season, we have seen it being used 3 times already during week 1.

I think the season theme is unlucky thirteen. That's why the house is Vegas themed, Vegas = gambling = luck, BB season Unlucky 13

This.

I don't think there is a blatent 'theme' this year but instead BB are just trying to turn the screw on the housemates, causing conflict and paranoia.

I think there will be more major twists to come, the twists so far have seemed very tame. We havn't even had a proper shipping task yet. I think there are many very unlucky twists in store. :D
