Wish there was also phone voting
 
Ugh I hate just app votes, I feel we have less control. Yea it’s good it’s free but it limits I feel,

Swan 12-10-2023 09:43 PM

I haven't got the app, have no interest in the app, so wont be voting this series.

Oliver_W 12-10-2023 09:44 PM

The app opens up a browser page to vote, so you could probably vote on the website.

I get that..5 votes as well!!

Its opening it up for a surprise live eviction though because it's easier to count.

But i prefer the smell of picking up the phone to call..its warming.

And I think I'm going to just vote if it's ever a vote to save.

I don't even seem to be getting a passcode when I try to register :joker:

In the last BB I spent a fortune trying to save a house mate that i can't even remember their name now .... £80 on my phone bill! So i like free votes lol

rph 12-10-2023 09:47 PM

I guess that means the bots will be rigging the voting results each week then

You need to register. Than you get a passcode.

In a Cost of living crisis I’m glad for the free votes ��

I was saying I was trying to register and they kept having trouble sending a code. It eventually came through after I gave up :laugh:

I prefer this way, everyone gets to vote not just those prepared to pay. I feel more involved.

I'm not paying to vote on a TV show

I appreciate that, and agree it’s good that there are free votes, but I also think there should be the option for phone voting. It makes it more unpredictable imo.

Also deprives us of the 'save xxxxx' operations which were always quite fun threads back in the day

bots 13-10-2023 05:40 PM

you can still make those threads and then have an X campaign to encourage everyone to vote

Wasn’t there a big ‘Save Ashleigh’ or ‘Evict Jale’ movement on here during BB15? :joker:

It just doesn’t feel the same. The nostalgia of the numbers coming up at the end of the show will be missed also :worry:

Thank you for the info

NICKP 13-10-2023 07:22 PM

I used to love when Davina/Brian/Emma would run through the phone numbers with that music in the background and the crowd would react to all the names

Haha I loved it, whenever the eviction went your way you could claim it was the campaign wot won it

Of course when it didn't you were left with the sheepish realisation that you'd just pissed away a tenner plus on something completely pointless

andybigbro 13-10-2023 08:15 PM

I also feel it’s so stupid them saying vote is still open. Like people have all probably used all their votes already as soon as the vote was announced :skull:

GoldHeart 14-10-2023 02:31 AM

I hate the phone votes.

I actually got really busy tonight and i missed the live show. I actually wish i voted to get Kerry out, but either way... Farida would be voted every week anyway... so what difference does it make.
