Big Brother Endgame

## Series Chronology

***Big Brother Endgame***, also known as ***Big Brother 15***, is the fifteenth and final season of Suitman's Big Brother, which premiered on June 16, 2020, and ended with a live reunion on July 20, 2020.

After 29 days, James R. was crowned the winner over Evan T. in a 8-3 Jury vote.

## Production

A fifteenth season was confirmed during the *Big Brother Second Chance* finale on June 15, 2019 - alongside *Big Brother 13* and *Big Brother Double Trouble* - with the season announced to be the last in the series. The season's subtitle was confirmed as *Endgame* at the *Double Trouble* finale on December 29, 2019, alongside confirmation that the cast would follow an *Entitled vs. Earned* theme. Applications for returning houseguest candidates opened on May 24, 2020, closing a week and a half later on June 4, 2020. In total 40 people applied, 20 failed to earn their spot on the season and weren't chosen by production as entitled, and the remaining 20 went on to become the houseguests competing in the game. The full cast of 20 was confirmed on June 14, 2020.

Each "week" (a cycle of 2-3 days) the houseguests compete for the title of Head of Household. The HOH must take on the responsibility of nominating two houseguests for eviction. The winner of the Power of Veto then has the ability to save one of the two nominees, forcing the HOH to name a replacement nominee, or they may choose not to use it. The final two nominees on the block at the end of each week must then face the votes of all their fellow housemates, excluding the HOH. The person with the most votes is evicted, with the HoH making the final decision in the event of a tie. Once only the final two houseguests remain, a jury of previously evicted houseguests cast their votes to decide the winner of *Big Brother*.

The series remains produced and hosted by SuitMan13, with production assistance from aiwfwyattroh, who returned for the final season after his departure following *Second Chance*.

## Twists

* **Impact Player:** Each week, one player will be given the power to alter the game for that week. Changes each week may vary from a slight tweak to a major twist that affects the entire week. It is also possible that the player may be bestowed with a specific power for that week only.
	+ **Ring of Replacement:** This new power gives its user the ability to swap places with one of the three players chosen by random draw in the Power of Veto competition, if they're not one of the six houseguests playing. It was found and used by James R. in Week 1.
	+ **Vote Void:** This advantage gives one houseguest the power to block three houseguests of their choice from voting at a single eviction, voiding their votes. It was won and used by Brian H. in Week 3.
	+ **Ejector Seat:** This new advantage that gives one houseguest the ability to remove one houseguest from the house for a single week. The removed houseguest cannot compete in competitions or vote at the eviction, but they also cannot be nominated, therefore making them immune. It was won and used by Kelly R. in Week 4.
	+ **Secret Week:** During Week 5, the winners of the POV competition was not revealed. Their power remained unchanged, but it was not publicly stated who the power holder was.
	+ **Forced Veto:** During Week 6, the winner of the POV competition was required to save one of the two nominees, guaranteeing the need for a replacement need. It was won and used by Will I.
	+ **Double Edged Veto:** This new Power of Veto variant functions very similarly to the Pocket Power of Veto, but also renders the saved houseguest unable to vote in the eviction. It was won and used by Andy F. in Week 7.
* **Returning Houseguests:** Former houseguests from the past fourteen seasons returned this season, designated as either **Entitled** to their spot, or having **Earned** their place.
	+ **The Earned Trials:** Half of the cast this season were determined by 6 different external methods of selection, from fast reality mini-games to a voting poll and a chance lottery. The winners of these trials would earn their place on the season.
* **Double Eviction:** It was announced in Weeks 2, 5, 8 and 12 that there would be a Double Eviction on Days 5, 12, 19 and 27, respectively, where a week's worth of competitions and ceremonies would go down in one night, ending in the two evictions for the week.

## Voting History

* **^Note 1** : Nolan was not allowed to vote in the eviction due to receiving a strike for violating the Code of Conduct. He was not punished with a penalty vote for not voting, however.

* **^Note 3** : Brian gave up the Power of Veto after winning the "Placement Pressure" competition to claim a Vote Void instead, allowing him to cancel out three eviction votes during the eviction of Week 3; He chose Evan, James, and Will. As a result of giving up the POV, it was instead given to Kelly, who was the runner-up of that week's POV competition.
* **^Note 4** : Kelly used an Ejector Seat to temporarily remove Evan from the house during Week 4. Evan was not allowed to compete in POV competition, be named as a nominee, or vote in the eviction.
* **^Note 5** : Andy used a Double Edged Veto to remove himself from the block before the Veto Ceremony, which also made him unable to vote in the eviction.
* **^Note 6** : Due to the 1-1 tie, HOH Jayson cast the deciding vote for Andy.
