wich would you prefer for BB9 out of the following

Evict - the public vote for wich HM they want to evict and the HM with the most votes is evicted

Save - the public vote for wich HM they want to save and the HM withe the leaste votes is evicted

Both - the public cant vote to evict and save 2 lines open for each HM nominated 1 to evict 1 to save!

Both, like the AUS BB, would be a good change.

Vote to save unless someone like charleys up again.

Ruth*Star · 05-09-2007, 05:40 PM

Vote to save, then the entertaining people might not go.

I would like to see a vote to save for one whole year.

Maybe having both for another year would be a good idea as well. Using both might actually make it all more unpredictable.

Both would be great !

n.l.o7 · 05-09-2007, 05:51 PM

The BBUS one works so that they have both a save line and an evict line for each housemate. So say the results would be (the following is completely fabricated):

To EVICT:

Louisa - 46%
Julie - 36%
Tomas - 21%

To SAVE:

Louisa - 58%
Tomas - 31%
Julie - 11%

Then the results would be something like:

Louisa - 12% (to save)
Tomas - 10% (to save)
Julie - 25% (to evict)

So Julie would be evicted, despite not getting the most votes to evict.

It doesn't work quite like that, but it's similar.

With a slight modification, I think that the Big Brother Australia system could work, for example:

Jon, Alex, Phil, and Kate are nominated.

To Evict
44% - Jon
29% - Alex
19% - Kate
8% - Phil

To Save
61% - Phil
16% - Alex
12% - Kate
11% - Jon

Merged (found by "evict-save," negative numbers are turned positive and made "to save")
33% to evict - Jon
13% to evict - Alex
7% to evict - Kate
53% to save - Phil

In this case, Jon would be evicted. This is because rather than the Australian system of what percentage of the merged vote, the system that I propose is the net result of the save and evict vote. Thus, it doesn't always add up to 100%, rather the percentage of the vote for that person is equated to how much people wanted to save and evict that housemate.

Yea I think to save would be good or both to evict or save, I deffo think that They need to change it up because I think more people would vote to save their favourite rather than vote to evict xx

It's the best of both worlds: if you vehemently hate someone you can vote to evict and if you love someone you vote to save.

Vote to save would be more ideal, because there's a greater chance of bigger characters with big fanbases staying in for longer.
And really, that's what we'd like to see and what provides the entertainment for the most part. It's been quite tiresome in the last few years when predictable big personalities have constantly been voted out throughout the weeks - it makes the dynamics and highlights more boring, I feel. At the end of the day, ratings should of course be the top priority, and I think voting to save would help in many respects.

Save/Evict vote in Aussie never really changes the outcome had it been only evict vote. It's just a way for producers to get more money. However if Aussie BB just used save vote a lot of big characters would have been saved.

I'd like to see a save vote next year. It would be interesting to see how it would work out.
