No, Julie basically said that they may not be safe because if they lose Battle of the Block then they're stripped of their power, and could potentially be put up whether things don't go their way after POV.

what I don't understand is what if they both want to nominate the same people?

^ that's the only bit I don't understand and is why I assumed they'd split them into two teams to make it easier

Surely the noms ceremonies are gonna be a bit messy now

I think overall the twist is really good. It changes the strategic and competitive nature of the game. Ive always said that it is good to throw HOHs in the first half of the game, but at the same time you don't want to look weak because the HOHs might purposely nominate the weak people so they lose and don't jeopardize their position. It really changes everything

this show is such a joke. Wasn't last year's twist designed to have no floaters or something? That was the sell for one of them, no floaters allowed (even though there's nothing wrong with floaters.) And now this year's twist is gonna encourage weak competitors getting nominated since they'll suck at the battle of the bull**** comp.

It adds an extra dynamic to the game though because if you're the dethroned HoH you've pissed off two people and got nothing from it and there's every chance you could end up on the block by the end of the week

On the flip side though if the HoH's use the opportunity right they'll put weak players up as pawns in order to keep themselves in control of noms and then there'll be more backdoors of stronger players post-Veto
