What if the twist is that the HOH will be allowed to compete from now on in all HOH's. From observing the Bacci game Erika may end up HOH two times in a row.

I think you are right Charvie. We always expect a twist to be grander than it is. This makes sense.

A WAY off thought:

Maybe they will get rid of the POV after this week. Then have HOH comp like normal. HOH nominates the two people. They do have a competition on the normal POV comp day. But instead of it being POV, it would give the winner of the competition the Power to Vote -- meaning they would be the only person casting a vote to evict someone. If one of the noms wins, obviously the other nom would be gone. If the HOH wins it, the person that they really want gone would be out. If the two noms are from the same alliance and one of their fellow alliance members wins the vote power, that person would have to choose between two of their allies. Many different possibilities on this, would probably be a better thing to do a little earlier in the season. But, people would definitely go balls out to win the Power of the Vote competition, especially the noms.

Wow. I like that idea. I don't like it (if I were a houseguest), but I do, really like it. I would hate to see a contest with that much importance be set up to favor certain players though.

I like that idea Madiskit but I don't think that the twist is going to have to do with any competitions. I think that it will definatly have something to do with the sequestered people. Maybe they will be able to vote for nominations. What if all the sequestered people voted to whos going to get evicted and whoever gets the most votes gets 1 vote against them.

Since they're missing one houseguest due to Scott's banishment, maybe tonights HOH competition will be for a two week long HOH - no eviction next week but the week following? Just a thought

I think in some interview Arnold said that they had scheduled enough time for only 12 houseguest not 13 so scott being evicted didn't throw anything off at all in terms of scheduling. They may have been planning on bribing someone to leave or something.

How would they have known that they would have been sucessful in bribing someone to leave though? It doesn't make much sense to have 13 houseguests but only enough time to evict 11 with one winner. Doesn't something feel "off" about a comment like that?

I think the twist will be them showing the sequestered house and the fact that it's not on a beach. They will tell the houseguests the evicted people will be able to see parts of the show.

My dream would be to make the POV Platinum and let the winner pick who goes up on the block if they save someone.

I still don't understand the sequestering if everyone is going to be together. They will all have a preconceived notion of who they are going to vote for. Someone will be able to sway the vote.

I hope we see the "other" house some tonight. I also like the Plat. POV idea. Here's another idea: have a HOH like comp. between the 3 evicted HGs & whoever wins goes back into the orig. house as if they were never evicted. I would like this alot. Dana, Nate, & I assume Justin would all give the comp. everything they had. An endurance comp. would be good - BB could let us know who won whenever they wanted. These 3 have not competed in endurance type comps. - interesting!

Conversely, at some point, a HG could win a "visit" INTO the sequester house to hang out with the evicted for a time period. Hmmm.. Similar to Survivor where some are able to get out of the camp for a night or overnighter.

That would be rich! And make sense because it would give the winner a chance to sway votes, etc. Very cool.

Gigglesalot - there are several ways they could have gotten rid of an extra HG besides bribing one of them to leave, like having back to back HOH terms only last a couple of days each and basically evict two people in a week, or three people in two weeks, but it could be done. Nothing off about the comment IMHO :)

Good thought Lisad. What if we turn that around a little & let the HG whoever wins some type of comp. bring back in a sequestered HG for an overnighter.

I haven't read through the whole thread yet, so forgive me if this has been suggested. They should have a non-HOH week, unknown to the HG until after the competition. This would be kind of like the non-merger on Survivor where the tribes assumed they were merged. The remaining HG compete tonight, and the first two out are the nominees for the week. Wouldn't that be a shock for anybody who throws the competition!

I swear I read somewhere, early on, that Marcellas would be coming into the house. Does anyone else remember reading or hearing that? That would be a twist I suppose - just having him there for one night would at least shake things up and make for some interesting conversations (that's putting it mildly!). We shall see.......

Oh Cathie - what an IDEA! I don't see it because Erika would have amunity. Would be good for the 1st HOH next yr though. Please, bring my most fav ever BB contestant, MARCELLAS back - if only for a little bit.

What if they found out that when Justin won HOH that HOH competion was rigged? They will bring Nathan back with a new HG. Donny would really shake things up.

So what was the big twist??? The jury house???

Spunky, the twist will be on saturday!

The new twist is Ali's "NEW" EX Donny will come in to the game. This is after they offer one of "ALL THESE STOOGES" a certain amount of money to leave.

I think this would be where the integrity part that Julie mentioned will come into play.

Julie said the HG's will actually know the twist tomorrow, Thursday. Finally a reason the to be glued to the feeds...LOL...I hope they find out early in the day, but knowing how BB likes to punish us, I bet it doesn't happen until night time.

Spunky

Wednesday, August 20, 2003 - 07:39 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Oh scream FOUL PLAY!!!! Didn't Julie say last Wednesday that next Live show we'll see the twist.. or did she say Next Week...?
Anyway, bllllllaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! :(

Stingerman

Wednesday, August 20, 2003 - 07:43 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
I doubt we are going to see or hear anything until Saturday. My guess would be that all of this is going to be done in the DR and we won't see any of it. + the HG's will be told not to mention any of there conversation to any of the other players.

my money is on bye bye veto. No more vetos

Maris, but how would that test the "character" of the HGs? Didn't JC said the twist would test their character? Maybe they are going to make their noses grow every time they tell a lie? :) (So much for Ali's nose job.)
