Default Who Actually Votes as far as members here are concerned.

Which members on here actually DO vote, every year, week in week out.

I don't. I think in all the years BB and CBB has been running - I've voted about half a dozen times in all, in about 2 shows, mostly as I was doing it for a laugh.

I've never voted, never will, I'll never be that concerned about the result of an eviction/final that I feel I have to spend money to vote. I'm happy just to watch it

I do Pyramid. I have ever since 2006, I am a mad fan of BB. Sometimes,like in the Bobby and Sally eviction,I wasn't bothered who went so didn't vote much, just a few votes for Sally.

Overall though, I enjoy feeling part of it,for instance, although I voted for both Tara and Bobby for Fridays eviction, I was really pleased to feel maybe my votes had helped Bobby survive although I was hoping Lucien or Darryn would go rather than Tara.

At the moment though it is Jedward getting my votes and I have a busy week on that one up to thursday until voting closes.

Once I get involved in something I really go at it,especially on this where I get the chance to really support someone I like such as the Twins.
Last year for Ben for instance,my phone was boiling hot from near constant use.I failed sadly there though.

Crazy to some but I love BB and want to support it and the people in it I come to like as much as I can.

See...that's my take on it too.

I wouldn't say it's crazy - not at all...it's a very important part of the show - people voting and 'diehard' fans most certainly shouldn't feel they are nuts for doing so!

to quote Shree: Personally, me... I wouldn't give the media companies the money - that's all !!! Miserable Scot through and through... tee hee!!!

It could be said that people like me who don't vote: shouldn't comment if their fav doesn't get further - which is true of course!!! I fall into the same category though as MusicMan above.

Not at all, whether you vote or not, voting is an option,the show is on the TV if you are watching it or following it in other ways then all your points are as valid as anyone else who watches it and follows it.

A lot of my cousins are the same as me and vote for their favourites loads too, this year we are near all on the same choice for a change.

I've voted in the past, but due to the lack of live feed and the way it's being edited, I don't feel as if I really know what's going on. So I won't be voting this series.

I have never and would never. If I had been England when BB7/UBB was on I would have voted for Nikki though. That would be my only exception. I will never in the future though, It's just a waste of money.

I meant in respect of 'Well if you don't vote for your favourite: don't moan that they didn't win".

for entertainment value: what I find really interesting - and hilarious - is the fact that you can have very close friends who are so very close at any other time: who can almost loathe each other throughout the show, if they have 2 polar opposite favourites (ie: think Ben vs Mario scenario for a more recent example). Hells bloody bells .... the effect is brilliant on that score though!!

I did do two votes each for Tara and Bobby last eviction. Fat lot of good that did But hey, what's four votes really, not much to my purse. Maybe I jinx those I vote for

I won't be voting any more, but for those who do it's your money and so why not spend it on votes if you wish to You never know, forgetting the cynic I have become where all things BB are involved I could well be wrong on that, and your votes do indeed count So good luck with voting your favourites

I only voted for Pete in BB7 because my Mum forced me to.

I voted for Darnell about 12 times in the finale of BB9.

I voted to evict Noirin about 30 odd times in BB10 to save Marcus.

And I'll probably vote for Bobby and Jedward in the final of CBB8.

What? Did your mother hold a loaded gun to your head.

Norin...god how I disliked her - and yes, I thought Marcus was brill. In fact, I think that's one of the few times I did actually vote IIRC.

I vote if there is actually someone worth voting for. I've voted for Kerry in the first eviction. Haven't voted since. But want to vote for Kerry in the Final.

I was going to a concert like 2 days after the finale IIRC - so as soon as the opening titles came on she was like;

'PATRICK! QUICK VOTE FOR PETE! COME ON!'

And kind of pushed me out into the hall to the phone.

And I was like 'Mum he's going to win anyway ' but she was like 'If you don't vote you're not ******ing going to that concert, and I'll make sure of it!'

But I snuck a cheeky vote in for Jennie not that it did any good.

I voted for Darryn last week although normally I dont, not because it's a waste of money or anything (I'm not paying the phone bill ) I just never really get round to it or seem able to bother

I can't vote, the last time I remember voting was for Brian during BB2. If I could, I probably wouldn't vote all the time only for the winner or If I really liked/disliked a person who was up
