Liking or loathing the task is irrelevant. The task at that time was what it was and bleating that Jason picked the wrong one (in their eyes) was ridiculous. If it was so ridiculous to sycophant Sam and self important Ryan that her chance of winning was taken away then why have they not walked.

Heck if they rounded on Jason for something he only beat self important Ryan (remember him the outspoken one) to pushing the button then that only exposes the truth that they would have voted Jason

There can only be one (listening SAM...ONE) winner. If you think she's more deserving then walk

People are very quick to forget that one of BB's main rules is that it can change the rules at any time. It's a gameshow in its 17th year, it needs to change to keep it interesting. BB has never been a 'fair' game.

The whole thing has been hilarious entertainment and it reminds me of the old series where BB had total control. At the start of this series, the housemates were taking the piss out of BB, escaping into the camera runs, ruining the second-house twist, generally treating the show like they were in charge, etc. But with Annihilation Week, BB has taken back the power and I LOVE it. I hope it continues.
Well said Wilp

I think those who were 'annhialiated' are being shafted by being voted out by their housemates. So yes, I see why Lateysha is annoyed, because she stood a good chance of winning. Personally, I have no judgements on why she went on the show; she went to get money for herself and her daughter and that is fine. I just think you cannot expect to win anything in a show like this. Who is most deserving does not really enter the equation.
I agree with all of that. It's worth mentioning that they wouldn't have considered it so unfair or been annoyed had it been someone else, say Jayne, being shafted. Only because it was her.

Because of her 'reasons'. "....but your reasons Teesh" and herself popping up like an indignant meerkat demanding to know, "Does he KNOW my reasons?"

It came across to me that they - unlike us - weren't actually bothered about how it was done but who it was done to.

This.......If say Sam had voted Jason...would they be up in arms...no. What would Hughie or Ryan have done as they pressed to...we'll never know

Tough on them, they in any other nomination scenario have ganged up on Jason or Jayne with false platitudes. And the gang of 3 (now 2) who made a pact. At least in this the odds were even

I didn't like her, and I don't think someone from a Reality TV show should have any place on civilian BB in the first place

So I was glad to see her go

That said, she was generally well liked in the house and would probably have got to the final without ever being up for eviction

Given the fact that she is in the top three of every on-line poll, it's fair to assume she would have made the top three in the final and been top woman at least ... she actually had a real shout at winning the whole thing

So, it's fair to say ... she was royally shafted
Whoever pushed the button would of had to of chosen someone to go but as Lateysha was popular it was seen as personal and vindictive, but if jayne, jason or maybe Laura or evlyn had of been chosen would it of got the same reaction no of course it wouldnt.

There all so two faced its a game show which they forget and others pressed there buttons too but jason just happened to be quickest.
