Big Brother 6

## Series Chronology

***Big Brother 6*** is the sixth season of Suitman's Big Brother, which premiered on January 22, 2018, and ended with a live reunion on March 6, 2018.

After 26 days, JaVale M. was crowned the winner over Bennett N. in a 6-1 Jury vote. JaVale was praised primarily for his social game, and ability to win comps near the end of the game, despite early sloppy strategic decisions. Bennett was blasted for his deceiving moves, changing loyalties and lack of social connections, with some small respect given for ensuring he stayed on the right side of the numbers.

## Production

A sixth season was confirmed during the series' hiatus on December 21, 2017, to air in the first month of the new year. It was announced that it would feature an all new cast of players, following the veteran *Big Brother All-Stars* season. Applications for new houseguests opened on January 7, 2018, and closed almost two weeks later on January 18. In total 33 people applied, 17 were cut from the casting, and the remaining 16 went on to become the houseguests competing in the game. The full cast of 16 were revealed on January 20, 2018.

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 once again from aiwfwyattroh and manalord. This season production was joined by NJKoda1998 as the fourth member.

## Twists

* **Duel of the Votes:** Each week, the confirmed final nominees selected one voting houseguest each to square off in a duel. The winner of the duel could either cast two votes or no votes at the eviction for that week, with the unselected choice going to the duel loser.
* **Secret Week:** During Week 8, the winners of the HOH and POV competitions were not revealed. Their powers remained unchanged, but it was not publicly stated who the power holders were. The week this occurred was decided by a single houseguest through a side task in the season's first HOH competition.
* **Double Eviction:** It was announced in Weeks 5 and 9 that there would be a Double Eviction on Days 11 and 20, respectively, where a week's worth of competitions and ceremonies would go down in one night, ending in the two evictions for the week.
