I think they do. While they were individuals we had a competition between Amanda and Brian. Now you can add the Sam supporters to Amanda supporters and as pairing they beat Brian by miles. With six people in the final there won't be enough votes left for Brian to make up ground on the twins. That is why it's a fix.

They knew what they were doing and they have pulled the wool over our eyes. It's not a twist it's a fix.

No. Big Brother did not choose to put the twins together, the twins themselves did.

It was predictable they would chose to be together they have been together all there life and in the womb too.

The mother of my first two kids was a near identical twin just like Amanda and Sam and they would always consider themselves to be one and still do.

It was not about being up for eviction, that didn't matter to them. If they leave the house or win the show together it is the fact they are together that counts. They have always been together and if you believe what they and the press says shared boyfriends to. It's how they are and how they have be brought up.

They are experts at the game. They know they are stronger together than they are apart. They know how the show works.

its funny, because when people say "i dislike so & so because they are PLAYING THE GAME" its like the twins are not able to also do this! next year, BB should just have charley's, saskia's, victor's, sezer's, grace's, maxwell's etc. imagine that!!! C4 can pay me half the money & i would still make it a No.1 show... with NO fixing!

The twins can play the game. I have no problem with that. I admired the way Victor played the game in BB5 until he got it all wrong over Shell and the wedding task. But they didn't need the help of the producers to win they could have done it one there own. Nothing in general wrong with game players it's part of the show.

It's good fun when it is done in a fair way. It's a reality game show these days and not an experiment in social observation as it was in BB1,

The twins should have been individual from start to finish, or together from start to finish. Doing this with such a short time to the finale is a desperate attempt for the Twins to win.
No.

Lots of the people who like Sam like Amanda too and vice versa so their chances of winning aren't doubled.

Yes but some people like Amanda more than Sam and Same more than Amanda and now there votes are combined together so they have more fans. From what I have seen Amanda had more fans than Sam so it not half and half but there is a combined summation effect on the votes for both of them as a pair which results in them being almost certain to win.

Yes.

Amanda and Sam would've split the money anyway.
But. Now it makes it a predictable winner, because if the twins were seperate Brian had a chance of winning.

With brians chance now out of the window, you've gotta ask yourself how many people supported the twins AS the twins.

Cos Amanda is much more 'social' than Sam. Personally, in an ideal world, they should've brought the bars in BB8 and split them up.

That would've made it easier to see who was the better twin.

I agree because on here for example Amanda has always had more support than Sam who has had about half as much support as her sister. But the point is that there combined appeal is great than there individual appeal. You can effectively sum there individual appeals. They have in effect been given an unfair advantage over other housemates.

The producers should have made it clear from day one that the twins would be counted as one housemate and not pull this twist which is nothing more than a form of vote rigging.

I do think it would've been better to do something like making the twins one housemate at the start of the show, rather than at a time like this, because it makes things more suspicious. Since viewers had to see them individually from the start, and form opinions, more seemed to prefer Amanda due to her hyperness etc. in comparison to her sister.

However, I also feel that those who had Amanda down as their favourite housemate, or Sam, still liked the other twin. That's probably why joining the twins in that respect wasn't such a dangerous thing to do. Despite this, the two together are much stronger based on their personalities - they do have an excellent chance of winning now, but that isn't to say there isn't competition... so there's still some level of excitement.

And it doesn't bother me personally as much, because I'm a fan and would like to see them win.

How do we know that Brian will win? We don't know where the twins votes would go and there are a lot of votes behind them at the moment.

They know what they want to happen which may change as the show goes on. They manipulate what is happening, what they are doing I'm not sure but it is going to come down to Brian or the twins at the moment.
