Yeah I'd be pretty bored of living with him and would be more than happy to bend the requirements of the vote to incorporate that fact

[Northern Monkey]

Bitterness aside.You can't deny that it was brilliant.The interesting one for me was Jamies vote for Calum.I wanna see that conversation.

[Crimson Dynamo]

what would have happend if say 4 of them had just picked James Jordan for a laugh?

But it begs the question

what does DULL mean?

The very fact several housemates remarked that he was a totally different person when drunk than during the day kind of dispels the idea that he was one dimensional. It's the very opposite actually

So would I if I were living with him, but that still doesn't change the fact that they were obviously voting for who they dislike as opposed to who's objectively speaking the 'dullest'

[Macie Lightfoot]

Dull isn't objective though! The house, who actually knows him, believes he is the dullest and voted accordingly.

'Dull' can and is quite easily translated as 'I don't like them and find them annoying'. That's not the same thing

This is a futile argument though because had it been Stacy evicted nobody on this forum would be agreeing she was dull, so

She isn't dull. Austin is in my opinion.

Neither of them are

Depending on who the tie was between, I would assume the rest of the housemates would have to vote between the two of them.

That's at least how it is in Survivor.

Though tbh had Austin tied with James C or Calum who also had two votes, he probably still would've been out

[Cherie]

Jedwards vote ousting Austin, that's got to hurt

Nobody would be happy if someone they liked was evicted so I'm not sure what your point is. Besides, aren't you someone who wants the show to get rid of the public vote and go to house votes anyway? This should've been the perfect scenario for you.

My point is that I don't know why people are trying to tell me that Austin is dull and that I'm wrong (when as you said, it's a matter of opinion) when if it were someone that was liked (i.e. Stacy) this forum would quite rightly not agree she was dull. It's a pointless discussion riddled with hypocrisy

And I am (like I said in another thread I don't oppose non public votes as a matter of principle), but as I've said before I'd like that to operate under a proper, consistent format, not these embarrassing twists concocted hours before the live show

[Macie Lightfoot]

You call it embarrassing, I call it iconic. Another house vote that sends home an annoying turd in humiliating fashion, they should do these more often

[LukeB]

James C was such a obvious choice to get rid of but it was shockingly Austin which was fantastic tv and something you didn't expect at first. maybe they should have said vote for someone you dislike the most but we are not there 24/7 and the housemates know Austin the most so if they think he's dull then he's dull to them. (two of his votes were about him wearing glasses and being in bed, that is dull) this twist backfired on them is also perfect. but the newbies seem promising so Austin won't be such a loss anyway.

Could've sworn you had a different opinion when it happened to Sam and Danielle, and pre the live show

Actually, Danielle's was the only one I was upset about, and it was only because BB15 was a **** series filled with human garbage and she was one of the only people I enjoyed. I wasn't really fussed about Sam's eviction since I don't really care about her at all -- I think it's remarkably insensitive to literally put price tags on people and sell their HM status to the house, but again, it was Sam Kay. How much could one care? And for this twist, I don't think I commented on it at all before the show so.

I've never been a Big Brother purist by any means and I don't really get too worked up about twists or anything like that. As long as the end result leaves me entertained, and this one certainly did, I really don't care.

[Crimson Dynamo]

it was kind of worth it see his his

"sorry what now?" reaction when his name was called

[Jason.]

He wasn't the dullest but he was annoying me this series so I'm not too bothered. I'd rather we lost him (even if it wasn't the fairest of evictions) than Stacy, a better HM, via the public vote.

[Amy Jade]

James J said he was dull and lay on his bed all day when they argued - it's not impossible Jedward, Speidi and Jedward agreed.

But youve done exactly the opposite and more times over your definition of dull is just different to most peoples.

[Northern Monkey]

Another point.We see about 45 mins tops of highlights.How do we know that Cosmo doesn't have really interesting convos with them all day while Austin mopes around in bed crying all day and only perks up at night after a drink?We don't see it from the hm's perspective.Austin could be boring af when he's not rowing with women.

I'm not going to get pissy over an obnoxious, piece of **** getting his comeuppance early. It makes for good television when they get outed early when they don't expect it.
