OK, this is something that just occurred to me and I haven't seen a thread devoted to it yet, so I figured we might as well start this discussion now. If I've missed this somewhere, well, it's mainly because this season hasn't grabbed me as much as past seasons have.

What happens if it ends up a tie between Ali and Dani? I'm not remembering a chance for this to have ever happened in past years. I mean, it is now seeming more and more possible that we could end up with that tie. My point -- 14 in the house, 2 on the block, and 2 HOHs. That means 10 voting members of the house, which means it could be a 5 to 5 vote. In the past the HOH breaks the tie. This week we have two HOHs..what if they cast their votes for the opposite people on the block? That would make it 6 to 6. What does BB do then? Do they both stay? Do they both go? Do the two HOHs go up and the house have to choose between them on the spot (which could still bring about yet another tie)? Is there a competition? So many options, so little time for us (at TVCH) to find a solution.

I say we come up with suggestions for Arnie and company to break the tie. Granted, it could all be a moot point, but with some of the conversations in the house...it's possible.

Boogie went in DR and asked that question today, but nobody there could give him an answer.

So, in other words, Nmbeach...BB doesn't know yet. I actually want it to happen just to see Julie's reaction. That would be priceless.

It's probably something like...The HOHs will have to agree and break the tie, or they'd both be up for eviction and the other revote.

Maybe it will come down to the POV holder making the tie breaking vote, in the event of a tie. LOL, Janie gets to do it this week.

Bring on the first America's Choice of the season... Oh, wait, we were already picking who we thought would leave first -- can we say CBS may use that against us?

I still think it is going to be a survivor style tie breaker. Quick questions but something quick between the two to see who is shown the door.

Oh, Stop, you may be right. Maybe they are going use America's vote if there is a tie.

Well that is the normal procedure, Pamy, but what if the two HOHs don't agree?

Has there been no convo between Janie & Jase about the possibility of a tie and how they'll handle it? They must be thinking the same way y'all are...what if? I think in the event of a tie, they've already discussed it and have agreed on who they vote out.
Or is that just wishful thinking? I sure don't want what I read elsewhere that Jase would use a tie to get Janie out.

Well for starters Jase doesn't even want Janie to know there is even a possibility of a tie.

Fly in Jeff Probst from the Survivor Cook Islands location and have the nominees make fire.

Arnold is likely to have something closer to drawing rocks though.

It would be wacky if they called the week a stalemate and evicted NO ONE.

I've seen a few theories.

I like the HOHs have to choose, and if they tie then ONE of them goes along with the person that they were voting for.

For instance, Janelle and Danielle possibly go because of the second tie. But how is it chosen WHICH two wil go.

The only thing I can think of is that the BB people wont tell teh HOHs what will happen if there is a tie. They already KNOW that they had to agree on the Noms so the trend may play out that they BOTH may be evicted.

NOW that would be a rotten twist. Dani and Ali still in the house and Janelle/ Jase gone.

maybe America gets 1 vote each week. Next week only 1 HOH so the number of votes will still be even. The 2 HOH the week after, etc....

I don't think they will revote or have america vote. also the HOH should not go. Their only rule was they had to agree on who would be nominated or they would go up for nomination. They did agree and if you are going to put them up after all do it before the veto cerempiny. Eviction is a live show so it has to be a quick dcision by a quick question and answer question.

Hey, guys! I just had some thoughts about this situation.
First of all, we don't even know if it'll be only the ten votes. I know that it could will be 5-5. 6-6 or 7-7! But in the cases when it turns out to be 5-5 or 6-6, maybe the HsOH still get to have input. But, just as the one decision for nom could be one vote for eviction...

Got to go

Do a quick contest. Give them 3 live bugs (or cooked if you insist) and the fastest to eat them stays. Quick and dirty.

My opinion is that if the two HOH's vote or have to agree on who goes then Jase will evict Ali. His alliance of Diane and Nik are aware he's playing the other side and they are in his plan even though he isn't/won't talk to them. To keep himself 'safe' and continue getting inside info from the BB^ group he has to vote with them and not make it appear he has a bunch of side things going on, which he does.

I think Jase will play it smart and agree with Jan, no arguement, because he is getting info from that group that no one else will EVER be able to get. It's his smartest move and I think others will see that. Well, Diane won't but Nik will explain it I figure.
