5.2 - 5.6, choo-choo by the way. Fivesville on the horizon.

Not saying that anyone won because of the teeny vote - just saying that whatever impact it had is severely degraded this year.
|
|
By:
I think plenty of the younger 20's sort of voters are most likely to use FB to vote - and I believe they are fine with liking the slightly older man type in this.

He has had a great start because he has been able to demonstrate his wit and intellegence alongside the anti-Rebeckah thing. Quite unusual in week 1 - we are usually weighing everyone up and thinking it is a "weak" field without really knowing them all. I think that partly explains such an unprecedented poll lead.

Does anyone know how many previous winners have been up for eviction via the 'normal' process ie nominated by fellow hms?
|
|
By:
All bar pete????
|
|
By:
that was a wild guess by the way
|
|
By:
more like half a dozen if you're just taking about by HM noms
|
|
By:
as in Pete is one of half a dozen
so the others were nommed by fellow HMs. |
|
By:
Sophie wasn't
Craig was ? Josie wasn't? |
|
By:
Yeah....I should read post more carefully I was just thinking who faced eviction rather than who had picked up noms. Dont think Sophie ever nommed.
|
|
By:
Craig got loads of noms
|
|
By:
Sophie faced loads of evictions, so I think she must have been
weeks 3 and 4? Josie definitely wasn't |
|
By:
2 Brians
Antony Pete Sophie Josie |
|
By:
think Sophie was up through misdemeanours
|
|
By:
Sophie was up for eviction as punishment by BB but not nommed by HMs. Josie never nommed.
|
|
By:
What a naughty girl. Must remember to give her a good hard spanking
|
|
By:
Yes I could think of better punishments
|
|
By:
messed around with noms no end that series
|
|
By:
Cheers. Not too much correlation it seems.
|
|
By:
A more interesting question would be how many times a total c unt has won.
What correlation are we looking at? ![]() |
|
By:
The ladies don't think he is GB, and that's more important that us.
|
|
By:
Plenty on DS are already having doubts after last nights show.
5 ish is a ridiculous price. |
|
By:
On the noms point, I have a theory (not tested it scientifically, but logically) that being up for evictions can be a good thing if you can survive them - it motivates your supporters, makes them associate more with you and stick with the 'cause' for your guy. Of course, it's just a theory.
|
|
By:
..and Freddie wasn't far off these numbers and he was by and large a nice bloke.
If a little insane. |
|
By:
Plenty on DS are already having doubts after last nights show.
I checked out additional positive votes he picked up after yesterday, and he was easily well clear of the next down the list. I agree he is starting to rub up some, but the beauty is it's a positive vote to the end, so the supporters matter much more. |

stu
Once people latch on to their favourite it takes something pretty to shift them. Figgy thinks 5 is too short, I think it's way too big. I guess that's what Betfair's all about. |
|
By:
Freddie would have still won in a landslide if it had stayed postive voting (or at worst been runner up)
|
|
By:
+ pretty big
|
|
By:
His fans love him for what he is - just like they did with freddie, rex, marcus - all of them will keep voting even if he annoys plenty other viewers. However, on the negative point he isn't even high up the negative polls anyway.
|
|
By:
Give it a couple of weeks stu and we'll see where his positive and negative polling stands.
|
|
By:
Spot on again stu. I think a lot of people are having trouble grasping the change in dynamics with this positive voting.
|
|
By:
And add to that that you can vote on facebook - IF you have a credit or debit card.
Sorry kitten but that is just wrong. They can load up credits via paypal or moneybookers and there are plenty of ways to get money into either of them. |
|
By:
Must admit it took me a while to think it through too K - I honestly think we'd had have a few different winners in the past in this format.
|
|
By:
As the winner of CBB was oldie Paddy vs all the 'yoof' in there, there's obviously no age-bias (Aaron's only 30 anyway!)
|
|
By:
Paddy proved that BB hasn't changed. Salt of earth type won yet again
This one will be no different |
|

Time and time again male punters on here get sucked in by these characters
|
|
By:
There's no one in there that fits that description GB! (and don't say Faye because I don't believe that from miss hard as nails, teary tears
) |
|
By:

It isn't male punters throthing in their knickers on the forums GB. Plus, time and time again we had negative voting (in the past) - it makes a difference. |

wot GB says.
