Thinking about Makosi and how she has to be nominated, how would you go about making sure they nominated you?

Personally I think she should try the "I want to go home" approach. She should go totally silent, look upset, depressed, say she wants to get out of the house, go home, shes had enough.

With it being the first round of evictions, they will hopfully pick her as an easy nomination by saying they want her to be happy and go home.

Then Makosi can come out and be herself once the challenge is over.

Only risk is the other HMs may take it the wrong way and feel she used them.

Murder Lesley.

Oh, wait, that would probably save her from being nominated.

i would be alot more subtle (sp) as people are going to remember this long after this weeks nominations.

I would ignore BB. Make friends with everyone. Get herself put up for eviction. Because if she did this the public won't vote her out and she'll establish herself as a nice girl both in the house and outside the house.

she might get voted out for ruining the publics potential fun of seeing her trying to get put up, i would have done that anyway.

I think running the public gauntlet at this time isn't a bad option. If Lesley continues to draw opinion like she is, she could be a good target.

Does she understand now what she has to do as last night she didnt look like she got it! I think she thought that we had to give her the most votes not her fellow house mates!!

Makosi is doing great..her big mouth over shoots everyone with her half cocked opinions she spent the night ramming down everyone,s throat...I think she is toxic.... I lived in Kenya..there are No Kings..she is `NO Princess..except in her own teeny brain...

On first impressions, Makosi is my favourite girl (though that may change at a moments notice!). I also think she should just have a great first week and take her chances with the public vote. If she's nice or a really strong character, the british public have (hopefully) wised up that she should be kept in for entertainment value. If she tries to get people to nominate her for negative things this week, then it might spoil the rest of her stay in the house.

If she really put her mind to this, she could have a lot of fun and come out on top. She has to really put her mind to use, coming up with interesting tactics to annoy the housemates and entertain the general public. Picking little arguments etc will only get her so far though, maybe she could throw diva strops etc?

I wouldn't even try to complete it.

I would just not annoy anyone and be myself. Who cares if she's up for eviction? It's much better to risk getting evicted than annoy everyone else - first impressions really count and if she actually pisses everyone off then she will be nominated for real the week after anyway.

I do like the girl, however, I would have just been myself. If people were to vote for me- then so be it. At least I would know that they voted me because of who I am and not who I was. If she took this approach, you would likely find that there would have been one maybe two people who had the most nominations, making the rest up for eviction - which would give Joe Public a wider selection to choose from and kick out.

Saying that, I think waaayy too much about these things

P.S Loving the series so far!

get up in the middle of the night and lay a cable on the head of every sleeping hosemate

Do you think she fully understood the challenge i don't think she did, I think she thinks she has to get the most votes from the public when she is up for nomination, she did say that. I'm not surprised she was very excited and nervous like most and wasn't paying attention as was first night. I hope BB call her back and go thro it with her again.

Do you think if she survives next week she will be able to tell the others because if she plays it right and goes up for nominations she is going to pee alot of people off therefore go up again the next week and the next........

No - she's Unlucky 13. It's gonna be hell for her.
She has got the concept of task now - Big Brother forced it into her last night.

I believe she is from Zimbabwe and her father might not be a king but, it is very likely that he is chief of a town which makes him more or less a king.
The fact her father can marry 15 wives definitely proves that he is someone (very) important, most african kings/chiefs tend to have lots of wives.

Does anyone know if the unlucky 13 HMate is that peron the unlucky 13 for whole time they are in there or will the person change???

Bit confused myself- from what I assumed last night there was only going to be one twist to being unlucky 13... but that would be a bit lame for Big Brother standards.

I'm guessing Makosi is going to have a lot of bad luck while being in that house!

The trouble is, if she gets disliked this early on, she'll be up for eviction on a regular basis, and will eventually go.

I'd have said - to BB, right there and then, in the Diary Room.

"OK - put me up, I'm not gonna annoy the others just to save my own skin - I'll take the chance and face the vote"

This would give her extra 'Brownie points' in the face of many of the public voters - and could even work FOR HER if she survived the first vote.

if i were a rabid christian i wouldn't bother about any strategising to make myself unpopular ..... i'd just open my mouth and let "the word" fly out and puncture everybody's ears till they bleed

Thats a great plan actually! Because the problem she doesn't seem to realise is that if she does totally start being irritating and annoying, then not only will she be nominated this week- therefore ecaping nominations, but she will be again next week, and the week after.
She has to be subtle, not springing heatedly into arguments that will be remembered when it comes to nominations.

Wait until everyone is asleep and then shit in their shoes.

No. It doesnt.

Her sister on BBLB said "our father isint a king, i dont know why she thinks shes a princess"

Her sister does not call therself a princess either.



Having a very important father does not make you a princess.

The princess title she affects likley just makes her feel like shes important, or maybe she thinks it gives her an exotic flavour..
