Highest placing newbie and the money

[Cal.]

I still don't get how it works. What if more than one newbie makes the final 6 and the viewers can't vote for them to win - how is it decided then? They can't open a vote to evict or anything between them 2 because that's distracting from the final vote. Will they decide the entire twist on a mere poll vote? It seems silly and anti climatic.

Nobody is going to vote to keep any newbie in because they'll go out in the first 10 minutes of the final with not much fanfare.

[Cal.]

If they were doing this 'second chance' thing properly they should have just said they couldn't nominate, be nominated or win and sent all 4 out the backdoor a few days before the final.

all newbies will go to the final with Chanelle and Raph i think :fc:

[BBDodge]

I expect there will be separate votes for the newbies so that only 1 of them is there at the final (1st out to collect their bobby prize).

Maybe the newbies won't be allowed to be part of the final 6 and will have to leave before the final actually.

no them nominating the hm's is genius, and don't worry Cal, our sweet precious angel Chanelle will be safe, or else we'll make sure she's safe for another week :hee:

I believe it will be a newbie-off in the last eviction. With the possible twist of giving up on the money to be eligible to win.

Still think this

Theyll get towards the end and be asked whether they want to compete for the big prize or leave now with the small prize.. surely.. thats the only way it makes sense.

It would work if from next week they evicted 1 newbie each Friday and left 1 (the winner) in the final to leave 7th with 15k. Also have the regular eviction each week, leaving 6 in the final to win. But I doubt C5 are smart enough to do this

[supertv247]

What I don't get is why the second chance housemates have went in and been given power to nominate normal housemates, even though they make absolutely no difference to their game, because they need to be going for each other to try and win their 15k prize.....

The twist will be cancelled before the final and whoever is left will be eligible to win. Bookmark me

It will be Sam because of the showmance

I'm thinking there may be separate votes for the newbies or something. So one goes every week along with a normal eviction. However, this doesn't fit in with the newbies being immune from nominations 'this week'. One going every week would mean the last was the week before the final if I am doing maths right...

I do think whoever is last of them will get the chance to trade in the 15k for a chance at the title.

This is what I said, and if it starts next week it'll mean the one newbie who makes it farthest and wins makes the final, they'll just come out in 7th place
