## ***Twists And Changes***

* **Split House - After Clea was evicted, the house would divide into two groups which would be referred as The Takeout House and The Leftovers House. Due to an odd number of houseguests, the houseguests were told to vote and the person with the most votes would be the Untouchable. Phoebe was rewarded as the untouchable.**
	+ **Carnival Cards - The two houseguests that were evicted would make the decision to unleash 1 of the 3 powers/twists into the house. Due to Buppy winning Camp Comeback, Hardy made the decision alone. Hardy picked from an Auto Nominee that would allow them to name one of the nominees in the upcoming week, a Diamond Power of Veto which allows the player who uses it to save someone from the block and name their OWN nominee, or Backwards Week where the houseguests would vote on the two nominees, then the HOH would have the sole vote. Hardy selected the Diamond Power of Veto and gave it to Buppy.**
	+ **Diamond Power of Veto - The player who gets this power can save someone off the block and name their own nominee. Buppy got this power from Hardy after they were evicted. They used this power in Week 5 on Storm after winning the POV, then used the Diamond Power of Veto on themself, saving them and their duo from eviction. In their place Twinkle renominated Shalk and Buppy renominated Estelle causing one of the most chaotic weeks in Dynamic History.**
* **Camp Comeback - Due to issues, Phoebe made the decision to pull them self from the game during the split house. As the twist was made so both houseguests would fill up the last two pre-jury spots and allow the houseguests who survived to make it to jury. As a result, Hardy and Buppy battled it out to return to the Big Brother house, Buppy ultimately returned to the game.**
* **Anti-Purge - In this twist, the Big Brother house was flipped into a fight for immunity. The HOH turned into an immunity competition in which Ero won and secured their safety. The rest of the house had to battle it out in the POV. Kacey won the veto and was able to take a +1, they took Lucy. This left Storm, Joshua, and Shalk on the block as the final nominees.**
