Why don't housemates nominate tactically?

For example, Sree is one of the favourites to be nominates this week - he'll be aware of that. So he should be nominating other people who are likely to be nominated this week to help his chances. These include Angel and Halfwit.

But he won't nominate Angel. He'll nominate Marcus who he has a grudge against, but Marcus won't get many votes.

Basically he's wasting a vote. They should really think about who to vote in a tactical sense.

Because they will need a valid reason, they cant just say "I wanna nominate Angel because I think she will be up and so to help me out when I'm up for eviction"

Yeah, but they could easily make up a reason.

There's loads of reasons Sree could give about Angel, even though she hasn't annoyed him directly.

Say something like: "she doesn't join in group discussion"... "don't think she should have fasted" etc.

Easy

Freddie won't be up this week. People such as sree, marcus, noirin and angel have got on a few peoples nerves

The "cool" group will still nominate freddie I reckon.

Kris clearly dislikes him a lot, and so that's going to help sway things

There's only 4 people in the slag group though. They will all nominate marcus too, and many others will also nominate marcus and sree. I think freddie will narrowly escape.
