BBAllStarFan Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I keep hearing speculation that whoever wins Veto can actually save someone on the nomination block AND replace them with someone else. But I am confused about this because I heard Erika say that if she saved one of the people nominated Kayser would have to replace them with someone else. So can someone explain if the HOH is still responsible for replacing any Veto refugees? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajunboiler Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Veto holder cannot nominate anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveKaysar Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I think the Head of Household still decides who is put up. I thought I heard somewhere that if they were to get a DIAMOND power of veto instead of a Golden power of veto that the person that won it could then choose who they want to put up... But...I could be wrong...wait...I'm probably wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajunboiler Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Diamond Veto had the same powers as Golden Veto. It was just more shiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvin Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I think you're referring to the Ruby Encrusted Platinum Veto of Doom. They never whip out this veto until late in the season though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adria0 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Diamond veto is just the most important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoKo33 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 The veto shows are usually boring because nobody ever uses it. I don't know why they make the nominees state why the veto should be used on them because the veto winner has already decided what he/she is going to do - nothing. The only time it's interesting is when a nominee wins it. By the way, didn't James win the veto last season when he and Sarah were both up for eviction? And was Sarah upset that he used it to save himself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNunOwnedGoat Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 If I remember correctly, Sarah understood that James used it for himself. But I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuxomBlonde Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 The Veto holder can only pick the replacement for who they take off if they are the current HoH (like Janelle was in week 1). And Diamond Veto is like a regular Golden Veto, except that is what they call it when there are down to only 4 remaining houseguests, because at that point if a nominee takes themselves off, the HoH has to replace them with the fourth person, and if the fourth person wins it, they don't use it and get to cast the only eviction vote. (The HoH has never won it at that point, though. I wonder what they would do.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelegyrl Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I think the veto holder got to replace the houseguest only in the double HOH week. I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AR_Rocks Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I think they were talking about the Veto Holder breaking a tie if there was one at the Eviction in the double HOH week, not selecting a replacement Nominee if the Veto was used. I don't remember hearing if both HOHs would have to agree on a replacement if the Veto had been used that week. Anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNunOwnedGoat Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I know I never heard that the two HOHs would have to agree on a replacement, because I wondered that several times myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time it's interesting is when a nominee wins it. Amen! It is a TOTAL waste of airtime for an HG to say "save me I'm nice" or "Do what you want." I do remember Ali getting Nathan to use it to save her sorry ass only to turn around and NOT use it to save him when she won it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dumblonde Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Wouldn't is be fantastic & really shake things up if the veto winner got to name the replacement? That's the way I wish they did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbfan100 Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Be nice for a change if a nominee said. "If you don't use it to save me, then your azz is going up when I win next hoh'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikki2005 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 If someone does use veto to take someone off the block is that person (the POV winner) exempt from being the replacement nom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uvp Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 yes. no one would use veto then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikki2005 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Thanks! That's what I thought. It's just seems weird that people are always afraid to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
