Oh, so the other HG's will know about the saboteur. I like that a bit better. Now no one will trust anyone.

"We’ve inserted a game piece into the show this season that will make life for the Houseguests harder than ever before," stated Allison Grodner, Executive Producer of Big Brother. "This is a twist that will wreak havoc on the house and the audience will be a part of it."

Upon moving into the house on premiere night, Houseguests will discover that one of them is not really there to win the game, but rather to sabotage their fellow players. While the saboteur’s identity will remain a secret to the Houseguests, America will learn his/her identity on Thursday, July 15, during the first live show. At that time, fans can begin offering suggestions for how the saboteur should disrupt the game. The longer the saboteur is able to maintain their anonymity while carrying out their fan-inspired sabotage, the more financially rewarding it will be for them.
That's from the press release

It's basically just the press release I posted on the previous page.

Thank you

I have so many reservations about this twist. I really dont like the thought of America having any say in the show, and I have a horrible feeling that with the sabotage aspect in place, good players will end up getting shafted by something they have no idea about and cant strategize against

In that TV Guide article it says there are several BB superfans that are in the cast, so surely you'd expect them to pick up on a potential saboteur and get them voted out early. I need to hear more on how this twist will actually work, but I'm guessing we won't get the full details until the premiere next week.

Forget the viewers, it's Grodner wanting to preserve her twist as long as possible that worries me.

Somewhat prematurely yes, but I like to moan.

Now thats more like it. The fans quite often overplay their hand and flop eg Ronnie and Laura (), but it's always satisfying to see people who are actually interested in BB get to play the game.

She really is the worst and she coddles her darling favorites. There really isn't any twist she's put in that actually worked successfully. The Twin Twist might have been her idea but Arnold Shapiro was head honcho then so it doesn't count.

If the house is told there is a Saboteur it will be sniffed out in less than a fortnight. Hopefully, America doesn't vote for tasks but only provides suggestions for production to take on board.

Also, for the record I will be rooting for the 4th hamster introduced on the Early Show for no other reason than being introduced 4th. It'll be my dark horse favorite till the end no matter how much of an assbag they might be.

I suggest you all pick a pony blindly as well for a laugh.

I've just read that Diane isn't doing cast interviews for CBS2 this year! Those are the only interviews that usually give an insight to the housemates personalities. That means instead we'll have to make do with the Chelsia ones! Ugh!

There are 13 housguests now, apparently one person dropped out at the last minute and there were supposed to be 14.

I wonder if the person who 'quit' was the girl who blabbed on Twitter about being on it. Or if it was really a case of someone being asked to be the saboteur, but turning it down.

Edit: Scrap that last theory actually, it wouldn't matter if someone turned it down since they'll all be told about it when they enter the house anyway.

At least there seems to still be an HOH room upstairs.

I didn't think the layout looked different, only the decor.

I'm gonna go for player #9 if we do a sweepstake I nearly missed out last year, so if there's a sign up page and I dont show up, someone say nine for me?

I like the house. Even though its pretty similar in layout, it actually looks really different to recent years.

Things I noticed:

The table has 12 seats, but there are 13 Houseguests? Not a problem for nominations cause the HoH stands, but could someone leave early?

Trust Allison Grodner to put her name in there somewhere! Surely the Chen-bar would have been more appropriate.

Dont hate that the Have-Have Nots challenges are coming back, but I think the cliques twist made it work last year, and it lost its effect once the group were integrated - like this year

On the whole, I absolutely love this house.

BB9's Chelsia as nice as ever:

'Hey Big Brother ladies... Did anyone else see what Monet said about us!? You just wait. I got names. I wanted to spit on her. #BB12'
