re: Big Brother 18 - Season Long Thread (SPOILERS)

I'm watching it right now. God I hate Frankie soooooo much, I will be extremely upset if he's brought back for an All Stars season. Got a lot of joy out of watching Davonne lose.

So I'm not too upset about not auditioning

Graduated and got a sweet job out in Kenner, so it all worked out. Wouldn't have gotten this opportunity if I was on Big Brother

Big Brother is recruiting mock houseguests. Other BB's in other countries have done this before to test camera angles after house redesigns. Hopefully this means we have a new house.

Big Brother 18 Mystery: Production Recruiting “Mock Houseguests”

We have received very interesting details that Big Brother production is actively recruiting “Mock Houseguests” for a week long BB18 experiment that has my heading spinning with possibilities.

And then there's this:

Another spoiler that has been floating around is that the Power of Veto will get a facelift, and have special new powers. Apparently, the winner of the veto, if they choose to use it, will have the power of renaming the nominee, not the Head of Household. It could bring excitement to a game that has been predictable the past few seasons.

SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!

As of right now, the only thing we know for sure is that there aren’t enough all-star players to play to dedicate a whole season. It seems highly plausible that it will be a mix of all-star and new players and could have a theme of ‘Superfans versus Villains.”

kind of support

I don't. Either have a full cast of all-stars, or a full cast of new fans (but with absolutely no more recruits). If you have a mixed group, then more than likely the all-stars will team up since they probably have met each other doing BB events. That, and they've been in the house before so they'll have an experience advantage with the stresses that living in the house produce that fans truly can't understand until you've been there.

And if they throw a theme on it such as "villains", then we could have some of these all-stars coming in trying to play a part or character, and that would get old fast.

Really hope the veto rumor is true.

Yet again, another year, another twitter account with spoilers. Last year's spoiler twitter account was about 60% accurate. Here's what they have to say this year:

28 players (14 veterans, 14 rookies) will move into the house. They will be told that 1st impressions are everything.

After some amount of time (likely an hour, details haven't been revealed) the returning players will play a new competition, dubbed "Fight of Your Life" or "Fight for Your Life." It sounds like it will be a trivia-based game revolving around past seasons of Big Brother, with each player earning a spot in the game, permanently, once they reach some milestone in the competition (for our sake, let's assume 3 correct answers).

When a player earns their right to enter the game, they will also choose one new player to enter the house with them.

This means that, like in Big Brother 14, production will send invitations to the players, instead of keys.

Eventually 8 returning players will earn their right to enter the game, each bringing a new player, for a cast of 16.

There will be another "Fight for Your Life" competition sometime in the season. Don't know when/what it will determine.

Nobody who has won the game before is in the potential cast. Also, no 2- or 3-time houseguests are in the pool either.

John Mcguire of #BB17 and Brian Hart of #BB10 will both be in the original group 14 returnees, as speculated.

Also in the initial pool of veterans are two houseguests from #BB12 (a pre-juror and a juror).

Also in the initial pool of veterans are two houseguests from #BB14 (both jurors).

I do not know how many players from #BB16 are on board, but I do know this season will not include Frankie.

Despite a lot of speculation, Vanessa Rousso of #BB17 will not be on the season. I don't know if she was contacted.

There are no representatives from #BB13. It is the only recent season without any returnees in the initial pool.

There will be a new twist to the have/have-not system. Producers hope this will force have/have-nots to factor more into the houseguests' gameplay than it has in recent years.

America's Player will make its return this season. I do not know if it will be for the entire season or just a portion.

Battle of the Block will not be a central twist. However, producers are considering using it as a Pandora's Box twist.

The old key wheel, despite its popularity within the fanbase, will not make its return this season.

There will be a twist involving the Power of Veto sometime throughout the season. I have no more details on it.

there will be at least one representative from #BB3, #BB5, and #BB6.

Number of returnees from each season:
1-0
2-0
3-1
4-0
5-1
6-1
8-0
9-0
10-1
11-1
12-2
13-0
14-2
15, 16, 17, I do not know
