Default Should there be Nomination/eviction twists for BBUSA?

Here's what I mean

For example one week goes like normal until the eviction where Julie tells the houseguests that the noms are void and the houseguest will be naming two hgs to evict. All hgs nommed will be eligible to be evicted by the HoH who be casting the sole vote. Hoh and Veto winner are immune from eviction.
or
After the houseguests vote, Julie reveals who evicted who. (Forced show of your cards basically)

I would like to see at least 1 week that's different from normal every season. (I'm not counting Doubles but I love doubles)

BBUK didn't get really good until it began creating twists which broke it's own rules, rather than keeping all twists within the rules. BBUSA has never really done that - the format is so predictable they even know when the surprise double evictions are coming, so I'd be all for rules which make the houseguests feel far less comfortable. There is a duty to be fair IMO - Shane was screwed over this year with the cancelling of an eviction after his HoH, while things like the Coup d'Etat in the past were a fair twist as they were either won or voted for and could be used over multiple weeks.

I'm bored of the Veto being used every single week so one regular twist I'd like to see is should the Veto be used that the viewers decide the replacement nominee. That really would change the game and make evictions far less predictable.

For some reason they tell the HMs before the first eviction in a double that there will be a second eviction later. It's like they don't want to surprise them too much. Wish it could be tougher all round, the whole have/have not thing is a joke.

The problem with twists is it can just help save the producers favourite. But that's really what the pandora's box thing does anyway. This whole series started off with the twist that some HMs weren't even eligible to be evicted (until it turned out after a few weeks). And of course they cancelled Frank's eviction.

It is a bit boring with the HoH always deciding the replacement nominee. It was always more dramatic in Save and Replace where the saved HM picked someone else from a board. All HMs should certainly take part in the veto, I really hate when they restrict that.

If anything that'd make the season more predictable - series villains get voted out and the "good guys" prosper.


I actually liked the week this year which had two vetoes. It'd probably make it messy to try fit it in an hours show but it'd be interesting to see how it could play out, at least for the first four to six weeks.

I think I have said this before. But how about HoH is the only one that's safe and everyone's nominated and everyone votes BBAUS style for a double. 2 for one hg, 1 for another hg

^ I suppose it wouldn't be a bad idea as a one off.

Nominations:
HoH has two colored keys. The Blue colored key would be the strategical nom. while the Red colored key would be the random draw nom.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Evictions:
1Single Evictions: 2 points to SAVE and 1 point to EVICT.
1Double Evictions: 4 points to SAVE and 2 points to EVICT.

Notes:
-The person with the most evict points during single eviction weeks will go.
-The people with the least save points during double eviction weeks (after a points merge) will go.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
