I don't think there's an issue from the money point of view. The rules are clear on that front. We're voting to save our favourite from eviction. As long as that is still the case, I don't see that we can complain on that basis.
I think the problem is the implication that they may be changing the rules after the fact, in order to manipulate the situation. That smacks of unfair interference in the results of the game which would be out of order. If the standard mechanism that they have been using for several series would not have resulted in Evander and Jasmine being up and yet they suddenly change it, without explanation or pre-warning, so that they are now up then I think it's reasonable to cry 'foul'.
Personally, I don't think they were deliberately trying to manipulate things, I suspect they had always planned it this way, but the lack of pre-warning for a change in the mechanism means that they have opened themselves up for accusations of manipulation which I think was a mistake.
