Default There is 1 problem with nominations?

Yes i know, i know nominations is a 'fundemental' part of Big brother and what makes the show different blah blah blah, don't get me wrong I am not against nominations and I totally agree they do make the show different and are very interesting to watch and also it does get the people we absolutely can't stand out but then there is one problem... Most people do complain about how we usually end up with a boring final and all the good and drama causing housemates are gone in the first few weeks but the whole reason is nominations and the bad thing about noms is that the housemates are nominating for who they want out which the majority of housemates are gonna choose people who cause arguments,drama etc. and the bores would hardly get any nominations to be fair! So what I think they should do to change this is we vote to evict and then the top 3 who recieved the most votes to be put up then the housemates nominate to evict do you get me so in other words we nominate and they evict or there is another idea and that is that the housemates must nominate the 2 housemates which have been the most BORING housemates each week to Big Brother's satisfaction! and then the whole series would be absolutely AMAZING! what do you think?

I understand what you are saying, but I disagree.

The whole point about BB is that they are cut off from public opinion. If the audience voted for who they disliked, then the game would be up. The house would know for sure who was unpopular. At the moment they only get clues based on the crowd outside. And even that tends to be focused on those up that week.

As well as that, its an unfortunate fact that women tend to vote out women. If the viewing public had their way, the first 3 weeks would be just getting rid of the pretty girls. We'd end up with a house of men and the one inoffensive woman.

I'll use sophie from BB10 as my sample. She won because people took the time to get to know her. Had the audience gone on first looks, then the pretty blonde, with the big boobs, that works as a glamour model, would never have had a shot, as she would be up straight away.

This is all my personal opinion - no offense meant.

Maybe they should base who is up for eviction the first 5 weeks of BB soley on twitter and facebook interest. The ones people are not showing interest in go up for eviction. Once they have been selected then we get to evict by phoning in each week. After week 5 resort back to nominations. That way the deadwood & fence sitters & bores go early and they also get a kick up the arse knowing the public put them their because they have done nothing to deserve to stay in.

I like nominations but with them are we actually getting the same winner have it be a public vote with all up see basically the winner is out of 5 finalists not the whole housemates and also i can guarantee Gina won't win! think about it Deana was leading every single whole poll for the whole duration of the series and she came 3rd?

I say get the Silver Fox Christian Howes (where has he been recently?!) back on BOTS and use his social media stats to determine who is up. The least three talked about housemates are up each week and it's a vote to save. That way those who aren't doing anything might actually get off their ass and stop being ****ing bores.

I do like nominations but the problem is that those who are annoying the housemates inside the house go up and that's not really a good thing for the show

A positive nominations system would be interesting but I expect all the nice fence-sitters would get the votes anyway so it would be pretty pointless. Having said that, if you had three people saved each week and then had a vote to save on the rest you'd still get a dullard out cause you'd have like 10 housemates up for eviction.
