Talk:Big Brother 2006 nominations table (UK)

replies: text: Is it necessary? I mean, they announce the nominees on BBLB, which is only an hour and a half before the channel 4 show, and isn't that the only thing on the table that people would want to wait for? Alex9891 11:51, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I put it up after Michael and thingy moved next door, and this week's nominations were listed here a few hours before they were shown on Channel 4. -- AnemoneProjectors (talk) 12:00, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Should we remove the names of the three housemates she moved and just have Jonathan as he was nominated for actual eviction, whereas all the others are now in the main house? -- AnemoneProjectors (talk) 22:18, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

: As part of this week's task, housemates will nominate in pairs. The five pairs are Aisleyne and Jennie, Glyn and Mikey, Imogen and Susie, Michael and Spiral, and Pete and Richard. The housemate with the most votes on Friday will be evicted along with their 'best friend'.

replies: text: I've had a look at how it's done for other countries. Out of all of the (English language) articles with full nominations tables, the UK and Australia have the housemates listed alphabetically, whilst USA has them listed in order of eviction.

text: Ha, you don't know Big Brother Australia at all...  Housemates only get banned from nominations if they commit the most obscene of crimes.  Otherwise, it's just $5000 AUD knocked off the prize and a visit to the Torture Punishment Room.  And as for twists, my God where do I start?

replies: text: No I do; I used to live there. And anyway I said "involving nominations". I know it's usually 5000 AUD, but sometimes if they repeatedly discuss noms then they get banned... godgoddingham333 00:12, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: They have to discuss it a lot for that to happen, though.  They normally get banned from every other thing they could possibly be banned from first.  And that's not many things.

thread_title:  Re-arrangement 

message: If the housemates are put in alphabetical order, then we would know who nominated in what order, they always nominate in alphabetical order. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SimonPeter (talk • contribs) 
:Nominations in Big Brother Australia weren't always in alphabetical order, so the order of housemates is meaningless on that table.  On the UK ones, does it actually matter what order the housemates nominated in?  It's not about the order nominations were made in, it's about who got kicked out each week.  That's what Big Brother is about.  --JD don't talk email me 16:15, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The order the housemates nominate is not really that important because nothing is revealed until all housemates have nominated, therefore one person's nominations have no influence on the other housemates. The housemates are listed in order of eviction because it looks clearer. When you read down the columns, you are not interrupted by the red bars going across, because they are all at the end.

thread_title:  Teen Big Brother Nominations 

message: Somebody has taken the liberty to sort this table in order of when the housemates left the house.  However, the housemates that returned to the house after being evicted are sorted by a mixture of when they first left the house and when they second left the house.
We should make it consistent.  Either list everybody in order of first exit from the house, or list everybody in order of last exit from the house.
You could try to argue that there is consistency, namely that they are listed in order of last exit from the main Big Brother House, as opposed to the House Next Door.  However, on this basis Jonathan cannot be placed, since he never entered the main house.  Moreover, if we were to do this, then should we count Grace's 21-minute visit?
-- Smjg 01:12, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: They are in reverse order of their original leaving, with the exception of Nikki because she re-entered the main house. Jonathan's case is an obvious exception, and Grace's 21 minute visit certainly wouldn't count. I don't understand what is inconsistent about it? --Alex (Talk) 01:19, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

text: It looks great as it is now. If we moved Grace, Mikey and Lea upwards then it would look extremely messy (it was done that way during the show), and we certainly can't move Nikki downwards. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 01:20, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Order! 

message: At the moment they say No nominations. But that's technically incorrect as there were</I> nominations - Susie's. Therefore shouldn't they something like <I>Not permitted to nominate maybe?
:In each of the cells in the table, 'No nominations' applies to that housemate on that week, so the table is saying Pete made no nominations in week 4, Glyn made no nominations in week 4, Aisleyne made no nominations in week 4 etc. Susie is still listed as nominating Nikki and Grace. The problem with changing it to Not permitted to nominate is that it's a bit long and might not fit in the table cell. What's often done when there are complex twists that cannot be explained in the table alone is that the twists are described in more detail in the notes at the bottom.
