Big Brother 12

**Big Brother 12** is the twelfth season of Ty's Sims 4 Big Brother.

This season's main twist included three competitions where five to four different people would compete for advantages such as the Halting Hex (Pause), skipping the veto competition (Fast Forward), and redoing HOH (Rewind). The season was completely dominated by women, with the last man being evicted at the final eight. Lauren Farris vs. The Evil Ladies was the most dominant storyline, but Maria Olson was crowned the winner after making the ultimate move to evict ringleader Chika Segundo at the final three.

 **Post-Veto NomineeEvicted11 Votes**

Sixteen brand new houseguests enter the Big Brother house once again for a chance at $750,000. Because of the time theme, the opening twist is a competition where the winner would be safe for the first three weeks of the game. Chika was successful and was granted long-term immunity. Following this, Jessie won HOH. Chika decided to approach Jessie for a final two deal, and suggested an all-girls alliance of themselves, Giovanna, Jackie, and Maria. Before nominations, Bob, Hayley, Jessie, Lauren, and Maria competed for a secret advantage. Lauren was successful, and was told she had the power to freeze time with the Halting Hex. Leading up to nominations, the girls alliance (now called The Evil Ladies) decide Hayley is their biggest threat, and also noticed she had been hanging out with the guys a lot more than the girls. Jessie nominated Hayley as her target and Tommy as a pawn. Chika, Lexi, and Matt are drawn for the veto competition, with Hayley coming out on top. Needing to come up with a new target, Jackie suggests backdooring Harold, since he's close to Hayley. After Hayley used the veto on herself, Harold was the replacement nominee. On eviction night, Harold is evicted by a 11-2 vote despite Bob and Hayley campaigning for him to stay.

Before nominations, Giovanna defeats Austin, Dylan, and Jackie to win the "Fast Forward" advantage, which allows the user to skip the veto competition within the first six weeks. Following this, Bob agrees with Jessie's offer, nominating Lexi as an easy house target and Tommy as a pawn. Austin, Jackie, and Maria are drawn for the veto competition, with Austin coming out on top. Not wanting to rock the boat, he leaves the nominations the same.

Before nominations, Tommy defeats Evan, Matt, and Ren to win the "Rewind" advantage, allowing the winner to re-do the HOH competition during the first six weeks.

Shortly after, Chika becomes very angry at Maria since she believed Dylan did not need to be nominated and it will be harder for him to place his trust in the Evil Ladies. Evan, Jessie, and Lauren are drawn for the veto competition, with Austin coming out on top. The backdoor plan comes into fruition when Austin saves himself with the veto and Bob becomes the replacement nominee. Leading up to eviction, Austin and Lauren realize they are outsiders, and try to gather Evan, Hayley, Matt and Ren to evict Dylan. However, Chika is in Evan's ear all week.
