Auntkk, there will be no lawsuits. There was room for the Twist in the contracts every houseguest signed.

I'm not sure an evicted HG should win the whole 500k if it came to that. Much like on Fear Factor if all the contestants loose then they cut the prize in half. THey already played the game badly and got kicked out. The others that have positioned themselves well,and to play do not deserve to be playing for the same money that a person that hasn't can get.

That being said if it comes down to voting either by America, or by the HG's then Eric will come back I think. Excpet for this board I do not fell the love out there for Amy. Lori isn't even remembered at this point, and Tonya is.... well excpet for Chiara not liked.

The only way I see them ddoing this is through some sort of challenge.

If Eric goes back in the show will become Small Bother instead of Big Brother. Because I don't know if I'd bother watching reruns of last week.

Cancel Realplayer and hello family!

BMH... Do we ALL have to be happy because you are? I'm very unhappy with this twist. I think it's unfair to the remaining hgs.

My facts are fine, you posted many times in more than one thread that you were threatening to quit watching.

Which is 100% true pure solid fact.

Glad to see you get something your way though, it does suck when nothing seems to go the way you wanted it. :)

Maybe anyone who feels they can't participate in an issue-oriented discussion needs to take a few moments away from the computer :)

Thank you!

If I missed this somewhere, forgive me. Is the player evicted next week eligible to turn right around and be back in the game along with the other evicted HGs? If not, why not? That seems blatantly unfair.

Can't we all just get along? :)

Eden, if you think about it, being evicted so early in the game could also be considered unfair... so it's just a different kind of unfair. Less camera time = another chance.

Wow, no need to get touchy.

I did include a smiliey.

I am HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY about the twist. I am just dying to see Lori or Amy get back in.

I am really amazed at some of your responses. The game needs to keep the mental pressure applied.

This will have a major impact on the game, and will help seperate the players from the played.

I think some of you are still longing for the days of the BB1 lickfest.

I don't necessarily want to see any of these houseguests come back either, except for the fact it will have a major impact on the game and the people who are in the house now.

It will also throw them off-balance because they will not know what BB has in mind next.

These kinds of twists tend to lead to a more deserving winner... But we shall see what happens. I suspect we will have at least one person self-destruct next week depending on what happens.

I said this someplace else but I don't think this particular twist leads to a more deserving winner. Allowing evicted HGs to come back will just make the others even MORE inclined not to try to win HOH or the veto, to avoid making enemies of people who may return.

I really think it blows but...

The 3 ladies annoy me to no end. Come on Eric.

Eh, its all cool in my book...just as long as Eric does not come back.


So far so good, I think we negotiated our way though this one Bmh. :)

Let's look at this in terms of "shaking up the house" and causing a shockwave. Who could do that? Who has the ability to cause a quake in the house. There is only one answer. Amy.

Roddy will feel his endgame schmoozing will be compromised if he once again has to put up Amy. I mean, he regretted it right?

Chiara will be livid if Amy comes back. Chiara's two faces may even meld into one very scary one.

Marcelles, even though Amy is his friend, may feel the added stress of having to choose between his 'new' alliance and his friend. Plus...will he have to babysit and keep Amy out of trouble?

Josh may look at Amy as an ally but I believe he'll be walking out as the "mover and shaker" is walking in.

Gerry will have yet one more person who has him in her sites returning to the house.

Comeon Keiffer and Penpoint....ya'll usually like the shake and bake players. Southern fried Amy served on a dish!

hmmmm.... just a thought, a rambling perhaps...

Is it about control? BB3 wants a lil more control, so we FOH, the HG try to control, and so well lots of examples (winning/trying to win hoh, veto etc) And I know I dont have much control in my life so I would like to think that there are at least rules to follow, that would allow some control, but here we throw in a "twist" a "shocker" and so goes the control!! I cannot imagine how horrified the evicted hg will feel next week, hg leaves, enters TWIST... More controversy...

Hey wait, controversy, yeah , controversy = ratings, ratings = more BB??!!! Who knows, but one things for sure, as long as we get suckered into these things, the more there will be!!

(and a few posts back I know someone posted on a love cruise that allowed an evicted couple to return Annie I believe, well, as long as ratings dont support a Twist, then there wont be a repeat. imo of course. The weasels at asp have to try and keep interest up, this is at least keeping the bb moving... isnt it???

I think the twist is good. I like change. In fact, when it comes to this game, I idolize it. :) It keeps the HG's on their toes, and more importantly, it keeps me interested and entertained.

The only type of twist that I wouldn't like would've been either a truly benign one (like changing Peanut Butter & Jelly to Marmalade & Honey) or one that would make HOH a true hegemon (like allowing the previous HOH to compete the following week for HOH). That would be boring. This will be anything but.

I'm hoping that in order to mix things up further, the returning HG automatically becomes the HOH. It'll mean that they'll probably be gunned down the following week, but since that's likely to occur anyway, at least they'll make a mark. I'm hoping for this, even at the risk of empowering an HG I don't like or trust (Eric or Tonya).

If the returned one wins in the end, so be it. It's Big Brother...not the Love-In Cakewalk show. So let's get ready to rumble!

But what is the point in returning a house guest. This was suppose to be a game. What game do you know that changes things in the middle of it? Baseball? NO Hockey? NO This totally sucks and does not seem fair to those in the house who have worked so hard ie Danni, Gerry, This is just crap with a capital C !

I asked this in another thread, but didn't get an answer....

So will the rest of the houseguests get wisked away to a luxerious resort following the return of an ousted houseguest?!! Or was it only for the first 4 ousted houseguests? (If so that kind of sucks)

I think it was only for the first 4 and from here on out on eviction day we will see the houseguests reunited with their families.

What do you guys think?
