Schedule to remind people.

I guess we will find out tomorrow.

Ima need some episode schedules :rant:

okay sorry to keep posting these interviews and there's nothing wrong with this one, except this which made me laugh :joker:

So they haven't even said yet whether there's a proper launch episode? http://cdn.thisisbigbrother.com/cust...r77153_157.gif

The 'annoying sister' looks like Morgan Frazier.

Also the schedule for this is literally horrible for UK'ers. :(

I hope this isn't successful tbh. The online only is plain silly.


if BBCan did it, it will be free and easy to watch

I would actually pay for this if I could

I'm still not sure how I feel really, Jason's participation is a pull factor for me as is the experimental side of it all but "America" picking the winner really puts me off. Like, it's just dumb to mix a social and strategic game with a popularity contest :shrug: they're two completely different entities altogether

It's just left me in this limbo of not knowing whether to bother or not, and I really don't know if I'm going to have the time anyway which doesn't help. I wish they'd just stuck with the regular format or gone all out with public voting, and then I'd at least know where I stand...

I will be surprised if anyone keeps up with this, it sounds full on :worry: people are at uni,work,school etc so they might miss the important bits.

I probs try but i probs give up if i can't find anything.

I kinda like the idea of viewers picking the winner, since only superfans will have cbs access so the casuals crappy opinions can't influence the voting.

Apparently the launch won't be an episode.

Let's not pretend like 'America' isn't a pseudonym for Allison Grodner :joker:

And even if it isn't, it's still just silly to waste ten weeks positioning yourself in a social game only to then have the result determined on a whim by people who weren't actually involved in said social game. The pandering to America by people like James is bad enough on the broadcast version too, **** knows what it's gonna be like now they're gonna determine the winner

They're just too cheap to house the jury for another five weeks, that's all that's happened

If America had chosen the winner between Paul and Nicole, Paul would have probably won :shrug:

I've never liked the idea of the housemates choosing the winner when they have the perfect opportunity to just bus someone if they personally dislike them or vote with their hearts not their heads. You always get bitter jury whereas this way I actually think the better person will be rewarded.

I wouldn't count on that. 'America' gave Corey a Care Package and Grodscunt was dripping for Nicole, she'd probably have rigged it.

What you just described is jury management though, which is half of the game. If you can't convince (at minimum) four or five people you've lived with for three months to award you $500k/$1m you don't deserve to win. That is the game. Sure, I'm not happy with the outcome of every jury vote in history, but it is what it is and ultimately the blame (mostly) lies at the hands of the person I wanted to win - and I can deal with that, in much the same way I can if they're voted out.

But with public voting? It's on a whim, certainly in the UK the public's taste is appalling - and I know this'll be contentious but I'd go as far as to say BBUS has far better winners overall than we do. The biggest problem though isn't any of this, it's the fact that it makes no sense to spend ten weeks playing an isolated social game among your peers and then to have the winner determined by a popular vote :shrug: you could do all the work and then lose for something trivial like not being attractive, not playing up to the cameras all season, etc etc. Pick a format and stick to it

Is there any USA'ers have a All Access account they want to give me the login for? :hee::hehe:

If you make it to the end and the jury doesn't vote for you to win, then that's through your own fault, not the jury's. There are no guidelines or regulations as to how one should or shouldn't vote, so if you want to win it's your job to manage the jury to the best of your ability and give them reasons to vote for you.

As for whether I'd prefer a public vote vs. a jury vote for the winner, I don't really care and I don't think a public vote would be that bad? Like, just compare the last four AFPs to the last four winners.

Victor fits in way too well on so many of those. :joker:

SuperV, if you wanna join me on Google Hangouts or Skype (if you have either); I can let you watch the launch with me.

Jason vs Jozea result (it's quite obvious):

It's time.

65 days?

Viewers have a impact on evictions and noms :s

How are you watching it? :conf:

Kryssie :love:

ugh I wish you didn't have to use an american credit card for CBS all access.

I don't know what I'm watching but this seems atrocious <3

They're going in one at a time "throughout the evening"...

*superfan enters the house*
"oh i have to pick out a bed!"
*walks to the bathroom*

intricate strategy already!!!

BBUK teas

Is Chen Bot hosting tonight?

Morgan :drool:

Looks like she just hosted the opening links (probably prerecorded) and now they've cut to the feeds to show them entering

Oh?

is everyone watching it on videobrother?

Yeah but it's very laggy, I think it's my internet tho

Thanks so so so so so much Luke for telling me that!

lol they don't know who won
