The majority of those on FB seem to be Jay fans, so how on earth does the above argument hold up?

Here and Digital Spy had massive campaigning for Aaron with loads of your claiming to spend up to £20... not said it was a bad thing its refreshing we have a different kind of winner even though I didnt like him. I like how yall being ignorant about it now to try and look like Aaron was very popular, crowd spoke volumes (only Rachel got boos and that was minority of the crowd).

Anyway I look forward to CBB9 and BB13 after 2 good series

Well done on the success, you still must have spent a lot!

The boos were beautiful though

Good series, good finale line-up.

Sour grapes Jords!

Some Alex fan said she spent £230 on Alex to win from DS.

Most were Aaron and Alex from what I saw. And still, there wernt campaigns on FB, all done on forums.

I don't want to be ignorant so educate me a little.

You say the crowd speaks volumes, well how many people is that roughly ?
Compare that to the total audience and would that statement still hold up ?

Serious question I'm not on a wind up.

TheManWhoLaughs · 11-11-2011, 11:09 PM

Jay would have won if you got to vote every time you pooed.

I dont fancy arguing (I know you wouldnt but others might post comment), shouldnt have made the thread because I sorta knew this would be the outcome and most would disagree with my point of view.

Anyway lll explain how I see it. I know the crowd only consists of, say 200-300 people? But every winner has been fully cheered (as it sounds on the TV) except Rachel but her boos were in the minority. This to me indicates that hes not THAT popular as the crowd drowned him with boos. I know its the crowd, and they are generally awful, but Aaron was cheered the first 2 times he was up... And like I said, winners have always been greeted with cheers.

Why do I think its down to the online campaigning? Theres been a lot of it on here and DS. Many members claiming to be voting loads using £20+... this is a lot of money to vote on a Reality TV show imo. It hasnt been successful before because the voting was dear so people didnt spend that much money. FB votes were only 7p this series so people took the opportunity to fork out knowing there money was worth more votes. Of course casual viewers will have used FB, and probably casted 5 more votes because of the cheapness or something, but not as much as the forum campaigners.

Its not a bad thing. The majority of the hardcore fans got their winner, not sour grapes or anything (maybe a little

), but I do think its what won Aaron, the FB vote system. Without Jay (maybe Alex) would have been the winner.

Just my thought, and I think the campaigners should be proud and not shy away... I said elsewhere if I was part of it Id be proper pleased.

Jay never would have won as he had alot of haters aswell,imo I think Alex would have won and Aaron would have came 2nd if it was just phone voting.

Precisely! Such hogwash and sour grapes! If the other HMs were popular, then way didn't their fans have an online campaign?

flamingGalah! · 11-11-2011, 11:52 PM

This thread is complete nonsense! Aaron won because he got more votes, does it really matter how he got those votes?? Fans of all the others could vote as many times as they wanted as well?? So what exactly is the problem & point of this thread...

I second that jf, he had also beaten Jay twice anyway too in eviction battles so that's more weight to your point.

I think you know exactly what Im on about, your not dumb

He wasnt a representative winner. But forums (hardcore fans) got their way because of the cheap voting.

Its all fine but that my theory (my only 1 this series!!!) on why he won and not Jay or Alex

Aaron became unpopular with casual viewers (hence the crowd starting to boo) as the series went on. Forums dedicating their money topped him and won it for him.

Without forums I still think hed make the final, but not have topped after the first 2 times he was up.

Were Alex and Jay fans banned from starting internet campaigns for their faves? Have they all got some kind of impediment stopping them dedicating their money to vote for them on fb? Aaron obviously hasn't become so unpopular that casual viewers were inclined to vote enough for Jay or Alex to stop Aaron winning. I agree with FlamingG, a completely nonsense theory.

It's an interesting argument, wonder how it would have turned out it all voting cost the same
