If as I am predicting, the bookies are wrong and the twins are evicted, then this will demonstrate that tactical voting has come to Big Brother.

We have seen this in elections at all levels. I myself voted Labour to keep the Lib Dems from gaining a seat after they told blatant lies about the labour candidate. The Conservatives did not have a chance.

Getting back to Big Brother, the problem with the betting odds is that it is referencing how people vote with their hearts, if people voted tactically, whether it is considered ethical or not, then we may get a different result.

So tonight will be a litmus test of the Big Brother audience. Do they vote tactically or not

So does Tactical voting happen.

I am certain it happened in BB3 in the johnny v Kate v Jade v Adelle vote

Sticks I don't want to be mean, I hate that but you are paranoid, british people don't vote tacticlly, stop with that theory about the twins evicted. You know, I know, we know that they won't be out and they will take part in the final 2. So there is no fiw, no tacticall voting, nothing agaisnt the twins because C4 will have a lot of publicity with them as winners.

twins to win!!!

If tactical voting occurred at all, we wouldn't have lost characters like Shabnam, Seany and Billi over people like Carole and Tracey.

And if tactical voting happens tonight, then Amy will stay and Kara or Jonty will go.

[JeanP!]

I hope not

[CassetteFinger]

I know brian fans might vote tactically that there nearest competition to there favorite winning.

i don't think people use tactics when they vote!!

You seem to be obsessed that the twins are going tonight, even though every where you look says their here to stay. Stop seeing the twins being counted as one as a bad thing, in my opinion BB until this week was at best a 2 horse race between Brian & Liam, with the twins coming in 3 & 4th, the twin being counted as one to me just put them back in the race for first place.

[iem]

yes, i agree the twins have a bigger chance of winning bb now!!!

[Fat.Rat]

they will win!!!

[Sticks]

My task is to sound the warning bell, so twins supports are not complacent thinking they have it in the bag.

Getting back to tactical voting, it did happen in 2002 when we had people being persuaded to vote out Adelle, as Jade would almost certainly be nominated again the following week. That was an appeal to engage in tactical voting.

In BB2, people were voting anyone against Paul out, so they could see more of the P&H romance. When it was Helen V Paul, it was tactical voting that said it was better for Paul to come out first.

At a certain level tactical voting did occur, and this vote tonight is one where the threat of the tactical vote is most visible and obvious.

Your task is maybe to vote the twins out but not to tell us your theory completely from an other earth, I hope you realise that what you said is wrong. What happened in the past happened, why are you obsessed with tactical votes and fixing ? Don't be paranoid anymare, I'm sure you are wrong as the twins will stay tonight and will win Big Brother 8.

[Fat.Rat]

yes they will!!!!

People don't dislike the twins enough to vote them out, the Liam and Brian fans also like the twins and wont be voting them out.You're way overestimating the one's that will be voting tactically, nothing indicates that the twins will be going.

I think you need to realise that there are quite a lot of people out there that want Amy and Kara out and they will be voting.

It's just illogical and inconceivable that the twins will be going.
