Default Opinion on 'The Power Of Money' Twist? [SPOILER]

So what do you think of the newest twist?

Read here if you haven't already..

http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/bigb...ney-twist.html

I personally like it, it won't mess with nominations too much at least all the ones nominated will still face eviction and I honestly do not think it was designed to get rid of any specific housemate, we already knew there was a twist coming because we were informed of it on Friday.

And most importantly I think we will see some real true colour on show when there's money involved.. I think we will find out who cares more about the cash than their fellow housemates that's for sure.

Adding a poll but what's your opinions on it?

I don't like it, because I hate nominations being messed with, but I am glad that's not save and replace. The haircut thing is just stupid and seems to be something else for Helen. The family time thing would be interesting if it was for housemates that would be more interested in spending time with family - Christopher and Mark are likely to go for it, but possibly not and I can't see Chris bothering with it.

Overall I'd say I dislike it because it doesn't look like it's really going to show any other sides of the housemates or this supposed 'double crossing' that they mentioned (unless that's still to come). It all basically comes down to them wanting another housemate [Chris] up this week.

I hate it because it's like the 8th times nominations have been messed around this series. Chris, Ashleigh and Ash didn't get the most nominations so should absolutely not face the public vote, what a joke but then the whole of bb15 has been a joke and I'm so glad I stopped watching weeks ago

Yeah it doesn't sound like it, though it would make more sense for the 'double crossing' and 'greed' they mentioned etc. If Ash had the 10k and Chris had the 1k, would they still pick Chris for example? Do they pick the choice they think will be evicted over them or do they take the chance and increase the prize pot? Would the decision be the same if they didn't know the amounts? I'm not sure which is best overall though.

Its possible that they wont know how much is in the envelope when they pick it, but that it will be revealed before the person is chosen to join the nominated. That works best I think

I find it unnecessary, I'm not keen on replace twists. But maybe when it plays out it will be interesting, I'll wait and see.

I like the idea of giving the housemates the ability to increase the price fund.

But 25k isn't really much of an incentive for them and they're pissing around with nominations yet again.

I love it.

Nothing better than keeping them on their toes, the more twists the better I say.

I've pretty much given up on the series now anyway so I couldn't care less for these twists now.

Sounds a bit crap really, £25k is a laughable increase as well. Budget much?

Winstons face lit up when he heard it was being increased, so it makes a difference to him.

Its not so much about the amount, but what hm's value most, their looks vs money in the hairdressing, seeing friends and family at the expense of others seeing them, would they nominate a friend rather than an enemy if the person is holding the biggest value.

Its all great from where I'm sitting

Big brother can put the most money in chris card so basically its a way of getting chris up again. I don't really understand the whole hair cutting thing though

Are they going to reveal who has the most money before letting them pick or is it going to be random?

They might think "Ashleigh is the least likely to go so we'll pick her"

It will be interesting to watch.

I'm pretty neutral over it. Not thrilled but not disappointed either.

It will be an interesting week but really, £25k isn't that much in an already £100k prize fund.
