You have essentially paid for something that was going to happen anyway, and now want to take credit for it.

I'd be interested to see the voting percentages. I bet marc got more than 50 per cent of the total vote in a 4 way eviction.

I was no fan of marc and think his eviction was totally fair and predictable.

All I am saying is that trying to pretend this campaign affected the result is ridiculous.

In a close head to head eviction, with say danny and joel up, getting joel evicted with 51% of the vote would be something to crow about.

But throwing a few votes at a certainty and then claiming a win is ridiculous. It's like peeing in the sea and saying you have helped stop the oceans receding.

There is no way that the producers can allow Marc to go now and leave people just getting along in the house. They need the tension of the 2 sides for the finale and also for this cash week nonsense.

But we contributed. If that means giving Marc 52% of the vote rather than 51%, I don't care.

Yes your votes were added to the others. But you can't claim that this campaign was a "success" and imply that he was evicted by the campaign.

He would have been evicted if the campaign didn't exist.

You just admitted our votes were added to others so you recognize we made a contribution to his eviction.

The campaign was to get Marc out. He's gone = campaign 100% success

Trying to make a point that Marc probably would have 50% of the vote with or without this thread just falls so flat when you're quoted as saying hat Marc will stay, he's been positively edited, the bookies had him leaving at 4/1, the online polls didn't see it coming and tibb is in meltdown all over the place..

At best, he narrowly lost. And a narrow lose can be thanked for a successful campaign.

I'm announcing a campaign to get a bear to **** in the woods. If we find a any bear droppings then I will declare it 100% successful.

This campaign had no bearing on the result whatsoever. The edit would have had to be extreme to prevent marc going and I don't think BB could have managed it.

Someone started a campaign about a foregone conclusion. Bit silly really. Channel 5 will be counting their cash this morning and wondering how they managed to get so much.

Have you previously announced that the campaign to get bears to **** in the woods wouldn't work?

If this is forum is pro team smug then I probably am applying too much critical thought.

No it wasn't.

The average voting viewer has never been near an internet forum and does not vote based on campaigns.

The most common thought process last night would have been "Duh that Marc has been mean to fit hero Danny, I am gonna vote to evict him."

The point is that no campaign was needed. It was obvious to anyone with 2 functioning braincells that Marc would go in a vote to evict.

And then you say that Marc was a cert to go.

Which is it?
