It's a good thing that I don't know them in real life then.:joker:

But yes that's one of the many posts that proves that I could break Nicole's eviction percentage record if I was a contestant on the show.:joker:

That's not really something to boast about..

Getting higher than 94% to be evicted would not be something to boast about?:laugh:

Liam- 26-03-2015 07:26 PM

Yeah, it really wouldn't be :joker:

LukeB 26-03-2015 07:26 PM

what is happening..

Anyway.. Gina was amazing tbf, Hazel is better but still

Macie Lightfoot 26-03-2015 07:29 PM

at the end of the day Hazel just really wasn't that good at being Hazel. Like good job you let Gina Rio break you and you told her that she smelled.

She was collateral damage on the train wreck that was Daley though

I liked Gina and thought she was a great housemate, but I didn't agree with her behaviour towards Hazel.

I liked her during BB14, but in retrospect, she was a nasty bully, who got away with everything just because people found it funny.

The way she behaves on Twitter confirms my thoughts of her.
In response to her "Skidmark of Society" comment towards Sallie.
Well Gina can talk.

Being called a "Skidmark" by Gina Rio, is like being told to sit up straight by the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

2 years later, and it still baffles me at why Gina was forgiven her Primark comment, and Zoe, a year later couldn't live down her Tesco comment.
Is looking down on people who shop at Primark less insulting or something?

Maybe because there were other things going on and that comment was forgotten whereas with bb15 nothing else happened that week so Zoe's comment stuck out. Didn't like Zoe anyway regardless of that comment she was so cringy.

Well, when you think about the amount of black Housemates that are put in each year then I guess they have less of chance then the white HMs just because there's a whole lot more of them then black HMs in general, male or female

In all fairness she was up against 6 other housemates.
Plus, with the odious cast of BB15, you can guarantee even the more obnoxious ones won't leave to that much of a landslide.

Though 80% in a four-way vote is actually worse than 94% in a 3 way vote, if you do the maths.

In a 3 way eviction you need over 33.3%
In a 4 way eviction you need over 25%

94 divided by 33.3 = 2.82 times more than the needed percentage to be evicted.
79.4 divided by 25 = 3.176 times more than the needed percentage to be evicted.

Therefore, Pauline's percentage is worse than what Nicole got in a 3 way vote.

Also, Nikki's eviction result in BB7 was quiet a landslide, when she was up with 11 housemates. She got 37.2% in a vote to evict.
In an eleven-way eviction, you need just over 9.09% to guarantee your eviction.

37.2 divided by 9.09 = 4.09 times more than the needed percentage to be evicted.

In theory, Nikki's eviction percentage in a eleven-way vote is far worse than what Nicole or Pauline got, in 3 and 4 way evictions.
Nicole may have had the highest actual percentage, but it wasn't as bad as what Nikki or Pauline got, in their evictions.
Interesting, isn't it?

Not Niamh drowning this thread in logic and reason.

Regardless of black to white ratios, the amount of black females who have survived evictions is ridiculously low and worries me.

It's not necessarily overlooking it, it's more to do with the fact that entertaining contestants are keeping the show alive and after seeing BB7 it's never very good to vote them all out.

Where as boring people make silly comments they're giving the public even more of a reason to attack them.

Less people voted for Pauline probably only a few hundred whereas back in c4 days there were probably thousands of votes, dont know how you'd work that out.

BB14 is one of my favourites. But thinking about it a huge part of that was down to Gina and Dexter and the relationship they had. Everyone else was rather dull. I think if those characters were in other series I don't think there would have been as much support for them. I loved her but she was nasty!

Daniel. 03-04-2015 10:22 PM

Gina was entertaining for sure, she annoyed me so much near the end though but in hindsight it's easy to shrug off

Daniel. 03-04-2015 10:22 PM

Marsh's dissing of her it just jealousy
