Default The Twist - Question

If your favourite housemate or even a housemate you liked was in the white room, would you still be outraged about the twist?

Just wondering

Answer truthfully please.

I don't like Luke S at all and I like the twist...not cause Conor's in there, just cause I think it'll make for some interesting TV (if they do it right).

I'd have preferred this whole White Room twist if it had been a bit fairer with the selection process, been done live etc, but yeah, I like this prize fund twist. I'm usually one of the only ones that support them, Eugene's one in BB6 was great and last year's was a bit poor, but I like this one.

Yeah I dont believe the prize fund should be messed with

I wouldnt actually be too bothered if it was 50k seperate from the prize fund

And if it had been a fair selection of who went in there. Ie. A public vote.

And someone I like is in there anyway.

I think it's unfair because only Luke S, Conor, Sara, and Scott were eligible. If they were all eligible I wouldn't be as outraged.

I wouldn't mind as long as it was someone who deserved it. Conor and Luke S definitely don't.

Yes because they're messing with the ****ing money, basically the producers are picking a select few HMs who can have some cash for doing **** all. They weren't voted in the white room and now they're offered the amount of cash that people have to vote for the winner to get.

If everyone was eligible and the main prize fund hadn't been tampered with I'd be fine with it no matter what.

I hate messing with the prize fund, If It was Deana/Adam/LukeA I'd feel the same.
I wish it was like Lisa/Sara from BB9 where BB added an extra 50K & told viewers BEFORE the nominations what would happen & not just hand select the 4 to possibly win 50K..
I'm sorry It's not acceptable at all, fact.

I love the twist. Not fussed on either of the lads, but it makes for good viewing.
Does not bother me in the least that the prize money is halved. not as if i could win it. Will be a joy to see the faces of the desperate to win housemates when they find out about the twist.

All my favourites are gone now, and to be completely honest? Yeah I'd still be annoyed.

Because every housemate this year - maybe with the exception of Benedict/Sara/Luke A or Adam are unlikeable bastards who don't deserve the money.

Had Arron, Caroline or Lydia been in there - I still wouldn't think it's right they got the money. But whatever, they're out now anyway.

Well, I have to vote Yes!
Because I have repeatedly stated for years that the prize money is far too small!!
So for the winner to have to split it with an 'also-ran' just stinks to high heaven imo!

My main issue is with it being 50%. If it was a smaller amount, yes, it would still be annoying, but it wouldn't make winning seem like an afterthought. Giving someone the chance to leave with the same prize as the winner, but without having to win a public vote to earn it, where's the reward for the person who wins?

Not outraged but still pissed its half the prize fund.

Ideally Id have Luke A v Luke S or Deana v Conor for it, where a really decent person had the opportunity to take it if they want in a sort of good v evil, this scenario some arsehole who hasnt been that good of a HM will be stealing half the money guaranteed.

If the £50K was seperate I wouldnt have a problem full stop.
