Nope. Just bringing back certain aspects that had been lost over the years.

Thank you for proving what I've been saying all along...

They did for CBB and as usual.... everyone moaned.

They didn't promise "normal nominations" for civilian, they said "more consistent" as in they wouldn't change the rule/method of nomination every single week.

“Normal” nominations weren’t promised for CBB either... They said the rule would be “more consistent” for that series too... People have just assumed that’s what they meant... Just like “back to basics”...

Yes they did. Specifically diary room nominations and the two or more housemates with the most nominations would face eviction.

From BBSPY:

There should finally be solid nominations criteria

After years of twist after twist after twist, will this finally be the series that the nominations process gets a much-needed simplification? We’re not entirely sure. Paul and Tamsin did say they prefer normal nominations, as they give you insight in to housemates that face-to-face nominations do not, but they did not give any assurances that there will be less twists this year – especially for the Celebrity version, noting that it’s harder when there’s two evictions per week.

However, there is another nominations bugbear they do intend on sorting. For years we’ve never quite known Channel 5’s formula for deciding who faces eviction; usually it’s any housemate that receives two or more nominations, but that isn’t always the case. This time, Paul says we’ll know the criteria right from the beginning.

So, you're using a fansite to try and "prove" the fansites are wrong?

Ok then... moving on.

People will moan whatever. See they want normal nominations/a consistent format for nominations, but it this results in the wrong people being up...then they wants twists to ensure that the people that they want to be up are up. Basically. Producers can't win really.

[y.winter]

Where does it say that it's "and replace" - they only mention saving a housemate.

my point being that people got what they wanted, normal nominations and then moaned because their fave was up in a head to head, no matter what the producers do there seems to be constant moaning and negativity, the forum is dead because of it

Exactly.

It's like VTS/VTE, they only want it when one results in their fave being evicted, then when the opposite evicts a good housemate too they never learn.

or what Vicky said.

[Headie]

So what happened to this "consistent and well thought out/well planned" format? Now they're changing it to TWO people with the fewest votes are up alongside the 2+ nominees.

Same old messiness as usual! Back to basics my ass!

on the app it said the 2 hm's with the most votes will be saved .... thats different, no?

edit: haha ... they have changed the text of it since i voted ... what you say is true

[TomC]

Although them changing it is annoying, it's a twist they're carrying on for the whole series so i don't mind as much, and at least she's telling us before the vote's taken place - i wouldn't put it past them to change it once they've seen who's at risk in the vote in previous seasons

[kingston]

I really don’t see why changing things up is such a bad thing... They’ve let us know ahead of The the vote what was happening and as production copped a lot of **** for head to head evictions in CBB22 it’s no wonder they’re giving us more nominees... This is really no different than when C4 would throw in a random vote to save...

They're trash for having a whole CBB with back to basics then reverting back to their messy ways for the civilian version. They really don't care about civilian BB.

Sve and replace started in bb11..

[Cal.]

At first I thought they might be doing two public nominees because next week would be a double eviction but apparently not which just makes it a bit unnecessary.

[BBDodge]

They made a mistake. The public only put 1 housemate up and the task winner saved that housemate rendering the whole process redundant.

Now the public put 2 up and at least 1 of them will stay up.

Which doesn't mean that the public will vote them out in a Vote To Evict.

[user104658]

They do not like or want head to head evictions. I don't think they thought this last one through at all as it inevitably generated a head to head... IMO it worked fairly well because "Lewis Vs Lewis" was kind of iconic, but for the most part, they want at least three up, so if they're going to continue doing "gamechanger" where one person is saved, they have to make it so that at least four are vulnerable.

Interestingly I actually think that - other than maybe Isaac - it's UNlikely that the housemates who are bottom of the "vote to save" poll will end up going out in a "vote to evict" eviction. It'll be the less visible ones who go up as no one has bothered to vote for them, but no one will bother to vote to evict them either.

In the meantime, the housemates end up confused because "harmless" housemates are up for eviction and they can't figure out who nominated them.

I don't mind it as a twist. Twists to put extra people up are fine. I'm not such a big fan of twists where really unpopular housemates can end up being artificially saved from being at risk (immunity, etc.)

[Cherie]

I dont care, they can do what they like
