Facebook voting update
 
As you know, due to technical reasons we’ve been unable to open Facebook voting this week. We are investigating the problem and will report back asap. In the event that we’re unable to reopen Facebook voting for the rest of this Big Brother series, we’ll refund unused BB Votes. Phone voting is open



Im betting it suddenly works again if Conor is up for eviction, or on final night though :p

Haha how true this is :laugh:

The technical reason being Deana and Luke A topping the vote then? :idc:

As if it'd take them over a week to have this fixed.

Munchkins 01-08-2012 03:54 PM

Its all greasy Ian's fault from the sweaty box
So annoyed its down D: this could affect Deana badly

Why should any housemate have significantly more facebook votes than phone votes if they cost the same? And if that was the case they would just be losing money by doing this anyway

billy123 01-08-2012 03:56 PM

Yes because closing one of there main revenue streams to sway the vote is something they would really do isnt it :nono:
BB fans are a strange breed with their conspiracy theorys.

smeagol 01-08-2012 03:56 PM

The only flaws with that theory are 1. Conor isn't from the ROI and 2. He's not up for eviction :pipe:

He's not up! :amazed::banana:

MTVN 01-08-2012 04:01 PM

They have just plotted it in advance, I'm sure the Irish are all voting for Conor

Don't be absurd :idc:

Vicky. 01-08-2012 04:04 PM

Anyway, my conor comment in the OP was just a bit of a joke. In all seriousness I just dont understand how they havent managed to fix this yet. Everything else on FB is working just fine...why would this one thing knack up enough to not be able to be fixed 5 days later :shrug:

How do people not get ROI/Northern Ireland thing, and the fact that you can live in NI and be British and Irish...bizaree.:joker: History books out MTVN... and lets begin...

C5 producers in cock-up shocker :tongue:

It'd probably be more of an issue if the pricing was as low as it was for CBB8/9/BB12 but some silly wankers thought it'd be funny to have a price increase for this series on Facebook.

Sensible wankers if you ask me. The price of fb voting compared to phoning last year rendered phone votes absolutely pointless :pipe:

Umm yes I get it thanks, but a lot in NI/ROI will still consider those across the border their countrymen

Anyway I was quite clearly joking :idc:

Marcus. 01-08-2012 04:11 PM

it could happen anytime

It sounds to me like they've just shut the facebook voting down for some reason known only to themselves. There's no way that they wouldn't be able to fix it. They could set u a whole new FB voting system within a day or two if they actually really wanted to! Awful!!!!!!

That 'update' sounds like they're basically saying that there will be no more FB voting this year. Stinks of some sort of manipulation again!!!

Can those in India vote via Facebook?
