In the U.S., nominations are not concrete. The “veto” competition gives players a chance to alter the nominations. In seasons 3 and 4, all houseguests could play. However, in recent seasons, only the HoH and the two nominees, plus one other houseguest each of their choice (making that 6 people altogether), can participate.

The veto competitions are usually quite creative and fun to watch, not dissimilar to some of BBA's own FNL games. The winner of the veto competition can choose to save one of the nominees, or to not use it at all.

If a nominee is saved, (sometimes referred to as ‘taken off the block,’) the HoH must choose someone to replace them. The nominations are now concrete.
