Default Isn\'t \'vote to save\' so much better?

Personally, I think that a vote to save rather than to evict this series would be so much better. It would get rid of the dull characters early on.

Yeah, it is.

Like you said it would get boring housemates out quicker.

I'm not sure if they're going to introduce it this year though, we'll just have to see.

The public always get rid of the people that actually make the show interesting!

I hope this happens!

this would be great coz the boring hms like: mohamed, darnell, luke, rex and michael could leave in the first six weeks or so. vote to evict gets rid of the bigger characters.

Yeah, I think the voting is stupid. IT should be vote to stay so that people don't vote out good characters .

It's miles better! Big characters tend to form split views - people who love them, but then those who can't stand them really can't stand them! As a result, with vote to evict, it's far more likely that people will bother to pick up their phones to vote for their eviction. And we're left with them gone, and a less entertaining house. Voting to save would counteract this problem, because fanbases of bigger BB personalities would vote to save them.

they should've switched to vote to save ages ago...and if they do this year, it will help the series. It did wonders for BBAU, that's for sure.

I would like to see it, but vote to save doesnt necesarly mean the best characters will stay. In CBB3 they had a vote to save, and it really didnt help the show IMO they same people would have gone had it been a vote to evict.

The only way a save votes works is if you have t least three nominees. If you have just two, then it a backwards evict vote. For example if BB8's Charley & Tracey were up against each other in a save vote, then all the Charley haters would just vote to save Tracey and Charley would be evicted.

Not necessarily. Even if it's two, if it's a close matchup (not tracey and charley) it could make all the difference and keep in the more interesting one.
