Battle of The Block: Love it or Hate it
 

What do you think of BOB? is it really a fan favourite?


wait for poll

edit: I was meant to vote Hate it :omgno:

Utter trash, ruins the element of the show as the HoH should never end up on the block on the same week.

I love it, because it adds a new perspective on the game; and I also think that it could be a permanent part of the game in a few seasons.

Yeah I agree, It's bad for anyones games too

One of the worst twists BBUS has ever had. Good idea in practice but it's a season ruiner. Well, it was last year.

The worst byproduct of it though is the disgusting nominations ceremony with key blocks as opposed to the wheel. I wouldn't hate it half as much if they incorporated the wheel somehow.

One of the most annoying things about its return is their audacity to call it a fan favourite when it is anything but. Twists by and large shouldn't be repeated but if you're going to repeat one don't pick the worst.

They better not drag it way past jury again :bored:

I've gone into why it sucks a bunch of times, but something nobody really talks about is how it kills the pacing of Sunday episodes.

They should just rename it buff man enabling device.

I don't think winning BOB should entitle you safety for the week tbh, they should be allowed to get back doored at the veto ceremony. All players should get 1 chance to save themselves.So yeah it seems pointless

I just don't see the point of it. :shrug:

I also think the two HoHs / two sets of nominees thing actually drains a lot of tension and momentum, rather than adding it.

:clap1:

the new box is awful :omgno:
I miss the wheel so much!

Hate Iit

Agree with Jack about missing the wheel. I just hate the whole premise of BOTB in general. Why try to fix what's not broken?

Yeah that's another thing, it is pretty much pointless and just adds extra (wasted) time to episodes for no reason at all

I think the real idea behind it is the risk of 'you could go from HoH to being evicted' but did that even happen last year? Totally pointless

Justice 4 Nicole

And as much as I disagree with Josiah, I am convinced it will now be a permanent extra element of the game, and won't even be billed as a 'twist' from next season onwards

Nicole </3 that week where she was planning on evicting Allison's favourite Frankie

Since when was it a fan favourite

I don't count BOB wins as a comp win tbh. It's just veto and Hoh for me. No one is stealing Janelle's Comp Queen title :nono:

All it succeeds in is encouraging large house alliances to take out everyone else. That's boring and isn't fluid gameplay at all. For a show obsessed with ~big moves~ for some reason (that's another topic tho), BotB actually discourages them. If you're in the big alliance, you just nominate two people outside of it like you would've done, and if you're not in the alliance you have to nominate two weak pawns just to have a chance at staying HoH. Nobody outside the alliance can actually take a hit at the majority successfully, which is why we got the awful season we had last year.

:clap1:

and the fact is the bob comp is more easy because you have someone helping you, Victoria comp wins has only been BOB. (and that veto that Caleb handed to her by taking another prize)

Allison's Fan Fiction world.

Hate it, will probably be the reason why lots of females are evicted this season

Hate it. Its wasted time that could be dedicated to something decent.

Controversial but I kinda want POV removed for the same reason.

I know
