Yeh but Big Brother is never fundamentally about that, and that's the weakness of the strategic version. Alliances are largely set in stone, if someone leaves one they are a traitor and not a gameplayer. Big Brother is largely about who you get on with and so who you start with. Most moves are 'what the house wants', you suck up to those in power. It's very hard to change the game thus the necessity for twists.
