Default Was there any valid reason for the Nom Rule?
The rule of only Brits being nominated?

Did they give a reason for it, or is BB just making it up as they go?

Why do viewers put up with it?

It was team USA's reward for winning the task. The Brits would have got the same reward if they'd won.

Did they say what the reward would be before the task?

It's more fair than all of the girls are immune from the vote in BB15.

Why did the Americans get stuck SERVING the Brits for an entire week, was that fair? The Brits just spent a week living as royalty, and even that paul diana dude said the brits were insufferable and rude to the Americans all week. that wasn't fair.

This is just evening the score.

Why is this an issue?

they are preserving the theme of the show and they will likely do something similar next eviction. I would imagine that when final night comes they would like to have a couple of Americans there to keep the theme alive

exactly, if they just get rid of all the americans right away, how can they keep up the theme? they'd have to change all of the decorations if it's just an all UK house.

Think of it like Affirmative action. it's a necessary positive discrimination.
