Making Nick nominate first is really crappy

He's basically got two guaranteed votes now, he should be allowed to vote after everyone else.

I suppose the only good thing is he can get away with nomming the same two over and over until they go or he goes, which may prevent more votes coming his way.

yes I see your logic - its still a tough thing to happen to anyone. - cant see him staying long as over time when people start getting into little groups that can work against him as its not just a vote against Adjoa and Sarah - their groups will gang up to get him.

It's actually a ridiculously huge advantage, - it tells the rest of the house who already has two votes, letting the rest of the house know who the easy targets are (as well as telling the remaining 11? housemates that Nick didn't vote for them, so it's much less likely they'll target him. Even if Nick gets 2 votes, it's unlikely that would be enough to put him up.

It's only a drawback a week or two before the end when the numbers are low.

Nick will be up for eviction as he is now always a easy target for them.

That's exactly what I thought. It's detrimental to the housemates he does nominate because the rest of the house will now be finding any reason they can to nominate them and avoid facing the public vote themselves. I guess it'll be interesting when noms are shown and we see who exactly votes for Sarah and Adjoa (I'm expecting Sarah to get quite a few votes but Adjoa seems genuinely liked within the house).

I agree that he should have gone last but only because it gives other HMs ideas of who to vote for. Knowing S and A already have one vote makes it easier to pile on.

He should have to vote last, otherwise it is a disadvantage to both him and the people he put up.

When has BB been fair lately though?

I agree it was totally wrong and unfair to make him nom first, now that the other hms have heard his noms, its bound to influence them or at least some of them. Should have waited til the others had nomd to avoid any chance of influencing them, he's now guaranteed two noms from those he nomd and anyone else who disagrees with him.
