I've just found out that this year they are going to let the public nominate, and the housemates vote... At least that's the way I took it...

I just found this... It's the rules... rules...

OH I agree with you there and what I meant was that I felt sorry for Dixie because she had lost Rima in the house as a friend... You know I was pissed about the anit American stuff she said... I don't like it at all, but in her defense, she's young, she is ignorant to the issue also, that's no excuse though, IMHO if you don't know about an issue that is being talked about, the you sit back and listen and learn more about it before speaking on it... I joined the forums for Aussie BB and some of the people over there are with me when I say that it wasn't racist, but ignorance, and then some of them are worse than her and Saxon...

OK I think maybe I am the only one that feels really bad for both Rima and Dixie... Poor Dixie... I know she's crying a lot, but it seems like she has such a big heart and feels really bad about Rima hurting herself and she is really going to miss Rima... Someone asked over on the Aussie BB boards if Dixie had a crush on Rory, and I have to say that I think she might, she admitted she liked constrution workers... I personally don't know why she wouldn't... He's a cutie...

Aussie BB Housemate Rima removed due to injury... Statement re Big Brother housemate Rima Posted in: Network Ten By Network Ten During last night's Friday Night Live games, an accident occurred where Rima fell during one of the challenges and as a result was taken straight to hospital following treatment by the Big Brother medical team. X-rays revealed Rima has broken her leg and is expected to take several weeks to recover. She is in fantastic spirits with her husband Carl by her side. Rima said: "I've broken my leg but my spirit is still intact. "I'll speak to everyone about the amazing experience in the Big Brother House very soon. "I just want you to know that the hospital food is much better than the food in the Big Brother House." This week's Friday Night Live game was an exercise where housemates were required to hold on to a tilting platform, with the last person holding on winning the competition. Those that couldn't hold on slid down the platform onto a well-padded surface. Rima was one of the last housemates holding on, but she slid down the platform at a tilt of approximately two meters and unfortunately landed awkwardly on the padded surface. All games on Friday Night Live are tested three times or more and approved by a Work Place Health and Safety Officer. The officer is involved in the creation and execution of the games which are modified to various degrees depending on the fitness and capabilities of each housemate. During the telecast, the officer remains on the arena floor with the housemates at all times. All housemates are required to wear appropriate safety gear during all games. A nurse is in attendance during all games and a doctor on call for the duration of the program. All of us at Big Brother wish Rima a speedy recovery and we look forward to her decision on whether she will return to the House. Network Ten and Endemol Southern Star

I'm not sure how people get nominated, but from what I can tell the public votes on who is evicted...

I think BB US should have ninjas too... They are about as funny as the housemates... I like this Friday Night Live stuff too...

LOL It's ok... You have to have time to get to know them... Friday night's show are up... No Show for Saturday so nothing but feeds tomorrow...

Yeah Rima hurt herself and hasn't returned to the house... I don't know who Merit is... I like Dixie and Rory...

xx200xx has posted a competition... They have what is called Friday Night Games... This is a really funny game and I really enjoyed it...

LMAO Jem, you've been here in the states too long... You don't have as thick an accent to me though... My hubby and I laughed today about the fact that we have talked about going over for a vacation, but if everyone over there thinks of the American public like Rima and Saxon, we won't be going... We were only joking, cause you know how I am about lumping people together like that, but they did have some nerve talking about us that we LOL...

With xx200xx you really have to click on see all videos, then they have sort of worked on their system a little... Now he has them labled like BB AU 2008 Episode 4 part 1, that would mean it's the 4th show and it's part one of however many there are, for example episode 4 had 3 parts and BB AU 2008 Episode 4 part 1 would be the first of 3 clips you would watch to see all of episode 4... I hope that helps... I enjoyed Episode 4... I will wait for others to see it before I talk about what's going on in it though... Don't want to spoil it...

xx200xx has just put up the 4th episode...

Rima and Saxon lost me with the America bashing and they didn't know what the hell they were talking about...

Their meals for dinner are also lotto style... Meaning the seats are numbered and when you sit down you have to eat whatever it is for that number, Nobbi seems to always get number one...

You're very welcome... I am watching some of the feeds that happened overnight... They are 12 hours ahead of us of for them it's night time and they are getting ready to go to bed for the night and when they wake up it will be the 2nd while for us it will be that we are just getting ready to go to bed on the 1st... I did read in the highlights of the overnight feeds that Rima and Saxon are bashing the US, so I don't know what that's about yet... I love the way the have to eat... They have to eat what BB gives them weather they like it or not, and they can't save something they like and eat it later... I don't think I would like the fact that I couldn't eat a snack anytime I wanted though...

LMAO I know me too, but be forwarned Duckie (Travis) voice will get to you after a while... LOVE their version so far...

Cool Joyami you are getting in early enough that you don't have much to catch up on...

OK... I've seen it already... It's great!!! I can't wait to see what happens with what was going on as it went off...

Dream is this their feeds? ETA: Ok nevermind... That is part of the first show... Cool... Do you have the next one???

here...... They have posted a couple of episodes and have posted a little of the feeds... The show just started... I am really enjoying it so far...

I am in the process of watching BB AU... I love their show right now... They don't have a really big age range, but they are all strangers, from all parts of AU, and all different culturals... Their twists are different...Like they have one person that is staying in a van in the backyard and they aren't allowed inside the house unless BB tells them to go in to vote, they have a bathroom outside for them, but their fellow housemates have to bring them food, also no other housemate is allowed into the van unless Nobbi (the housemate living there) asks them to come in, and he also has his very own diary cam, and if the do not disturb sign is out the other housemates can't knock on the van door... They weren't allowed in the house of the first night... They had to stay in the backyard and evict someone within the first 8 hours, then the other part of that twist was that that person was the one to evict the second person... They also seem to show their show on TV every night except Saturday... They also don't have a pool, they have a hot and cold um can't seem to remember what they called it, but it's a very shallow, very narrow area and part of it is hot and part of it is cold and it's "a place for the housemates to get intimate", and their diary room door is green when nobody is in it and red when someone is in there... Just a little bit of what is different about the aussie and us BB's... I forgot to mention that they have one big bed for 12 people to sleep in and that they don't seem to have an HoH type room, and they have a heavy set lady and a little person on their version... From what I can tell they don't have a kitchen either, their food is sent out to them by conveyor belt... Their showers are also out in the open pretty much...
