I don't know why you think that's better.. And besides at the end of the Deana's series the ugly guy in the sweaty box was reading out comments about what viewers want from next year and he said that a lot of people didn't like splitting the prize fund, so it's not gonna happen considering it happened in C5s first two series' and the audience hated it, and they'd lose all their calling in money anyway because theres nothing for them to win that they don't already have...

I think it could backfire if certain contestants don't care about money. If I went on the show for instance money would not be an incentive at all.

It definitely has potential.
Someone raised the point that they'd like a prize fund too for the winner - I think the ideal solution to that problem could be to copy the US system, and allow a People's Champion voting situation where one housemate is given money... obviously this could just be kept the same with the vote to win LOL, but say one housemate has some sob story about needing money for an operation or whatever, but hasn't been a very good housemate, the public might choose to give them money and vote for someone else to win. Idk. Gives the public more choice. The one thing raised in this topic I'd object to is a final-night "share or steal" twist... it'd just be horrible, and have no tension whatsoever. So many other shows have done that, and I don't enjoy it at all, it's just really base and primitive and an ugly situation, and not something I want to see. I do however love the idea of tasks boosting the prize funds / bank balances. There's also a small question, and I think it may be a foolish one so forgive me, in the legality of it all. If they're being paid for tasks and have their own "balances" I think there could be some legal problem; housemates evicted early or deducted money could argue that they were effectively employees if they were on television and being paid to do tasks. Obviously all sorts of ugliness could arise from that... but I imagine it would be easy enough to work in a "the money isn't yours until you leave" clause or something. Would people who walk forfeit theirs? What if it was for extenuating circumstances (a relative is ill/has died, they've been ejected for rulebreaks, etc.)? I just worry that the idea has been presented with rose-tinted glasses because it does offer up a lot of competition and entertainment... it's worth a try, though. Beats another "oh here's a room next door are you a housemate or not idk here's natalie cassidy" series.
