Just wanted a little lively discussion about the many ways Big Brother has completely destroyed any credibility it once had with it's constant manipulation on who's up for nomination.

Plus it would be nice to have a thread without any rampant Team Perez or Team Katie activists!

One such manipulation, and by all means correct me if I am wrong on this, but is there any rule as to how many are up for eviction?

From what I can gather, it was once at least two with the most votes. However often this'll be changed so if A had 5 votes, B had 4, C and D had 2 votes, suddenly, it seems, that say A and B were popular, the net is expanded to include C and D.

Then of course you have all the immunity. The fake evictions. Secret houses. Pass to the final. For me it's become a bit of a joke. Twists are supposed to be "Wow. I didn't see that one coming". For me the biggest shocker in the world would be to see good old diary room nominations without some twist no matter how big or small. Unfortunately, if that were to happen, Channel 5 would be besides themselves with the worry of a popular housemate exiting, and therefore less viewers.

If you want a thread that plays nice and is devoid of negativity - take it up to the AT area

Down here, you take what you're given

They just seem to forever interfere with normal nominations now a days, it's obviously nothing more than saving those they wish to remain ie this twist benefiting Perez from his Tsunami of nominations.
