I do have to say I doubt votes are rigged at all but I am really amazed and do question why we have not the full breakdown of votes cast, in the first eviction to the 3rd eviction and much more so,why we have not the breakdown of votes cast in the final too for each placing.
I hope we get this for this BB series as I for one like to know the figures.

My view is this is a public vote and we should be told and shown clearly just how many votes are cast and how they are distributed.
I am at a loss and cannot answer anyone as to why these figures have not been released. We haven't even been told as to what percentage of votes Paddy even got as the winner yet either.

I also doubt very much that Pamela has been sleeping in that room, far too near the main house.She'd have been further away in the diary room.

Thats the thing though Joey,if the votes of CBB8 were genuine then I think they would reveal the figures.

But because C5 havent revealed the voting figures just proves my theory that at least two of the votes was rigged and that somebody else came in them positions.

Anyway on topic,I wouldnt be surprised if Pamela wont just have a picture of herself in the bedroom,but was really staying at a hotel.

They will NEVER give the number of votes cast. Even if they were to give percentages they'd be totally meaningless without a reference point.
10% means nowt if you have no idea what it is 10% of.

I expect a great number of people do vote in these things and many times too in some cases, I do for one and most people I know who watched CBB did too and are watching this one will vote as well.
We always got a breakdown of votes cast,even just percentages but the surprising thing is we haven't had a single percentage figure released over the whole CBB series.

That does seem odd to me. I would like to know even the percentages only, whether 500 votes were cast or 5,000,000. Since we take time to vote and spend money too, I feel we have that right to know the figures,especially at the end of a series.

Well, they open the door to suspicion if they don't give us the information.I thought more transparency had to be done when anything involved the public voting for things or entering competitions after all the rigging that went on in those situations that came to light a couple of years back.

It's a simple thing to say the winner got so much % of the votes and then go down the placings with the details.

Well that's massively unlikely that only 4 votes would be cast,However,yes it tells me someone gets 3 out of 4 votes rather than 1 out of 4 votes,there were 7 people in the final and I would like to know the rest of them too.

I don't know for sure how many people voted and how many times but I am sure it will be a very big sizeable number that voted and voted far more than once too indeed.

If I spend money on something I like to see results of my money spent especially on voting for people in reality shows.

We learn all the voting percentages in X Factor, Dancing on Ice etc, so we should as to BB too and in fact always have until now.

Actually it doesn't tell you that someone got 3 votes out of 4 UNLESS you know how many votes were cast.

I am not asking for the figures for total votes cast, I am sure I know they will be huge.

I would though and I think a good many others too would like to know the percentage breakdowns as to eviction voting and the final placings for the final.
You are not interested in the voting percentages that's perfectly fine for you,I am though and a great many others are likely to be too and there I leave this debate now because we are running round in circles.

For those a little confused by this thread, I split it from another topic, as the majority of posts in here were nothing at all to do with the original topic.

In future, try to keep threads on topic, or risk having your posts deleted. I will not be splitting them everytime.

Haha, its fine, I know it happens sometimes

Its just when threads go really offtopic like that one did, but still have some decent posts in, I prefer to split them rather than just delete...unless its the same people doing it all the time.

The voting isnt rigged, they have independant verifiers to check the actual numbers of votes cast per line, the figures released to the public have to be accurate. Ofcom and Oftel have issued guidelines TV shows etc have to follow.

The actual voting figures including percentage figures can be obtained from the verifiers, for a fee of course.

Thanks Vicky,im sorry for going off topic.

Shasown have you actually met any of these independant verifiers? if so then I take it back about the independant verifiers not being real.

Nah cant say am that arsed, I dont waste money voting for BB now.

However looking at the terms and conditions re voting on Channel 5 BB webpages http://about.channel5.com/big-brothe...and-conditions

Para 37 states all votes monitored by Electoral Reform Services

Their website http://www.erbs.co.uk/

They are legit, there will be no rigging of voting figures etc carried out internally by Channel 5 or anyone on their behalf. The only rigging possible is external - automatic phone voting diallers or biaised editing.
