Turtle Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 There have been so many threads and posts about how BB is definitely/ definitely not rigged... I just wanted to see what the majority of BB fans thought. Also, if anyone has examples of how BB is/ is not rigged...feel free to post.
fizzle Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 how many polls have there been on rigging? i am not falling for it again! nope. not gonna do it. ::::make mental note:::::
UnderRENT_is_WICKED Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 Even if it was (which we'll probably never know until some1 from cbs says so) and you think its rigged, you know you're still going to watch like you always do, so why are we contemplating over it AGAIN?

Tarman12 Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 You forgot the "I don't care" option, so I voted no, on sheer blind faith in Arnold Shapiro, who has a spotless reputation in the industry and has publicly ridiculed the idea. Every time a competition doesn't go the way some people want, they're going to say it's rigged. I've seen it in AI not so much on this board as another that I browse. Chris Daughtry was the Golden Boy. Then he was voted out and they shut up. Before that it was Kellie Pickler. She was The Chosen One. Now it's BB season and we're getting the same stuff because Janelle is dominating the competitions. Not even sports fans do that. The Red Sox went 86 years without winning a World Series while the Yankees were dominating, and there are a bunch of absolutely crazy, wild fans in Boston, and not even THEY cried foul.
Sheri Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 how many polls have there been on rigging? i am not falling for it again! nope. not gonna do it. ::::make mental note::::: With fizzle on this one!!
Guest jordansmom Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 You know what I find funny is that ppl didn't like the poll but still voted in it.
sherwayf Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 I watched the clip the other day where Arnold Shapiro was on House calls and he was like this show is not rigged, he went on and on about it. But IMO, it seems like it at times!
chichi Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Yes and Will shot JFK. I'm sure they can and do manipulate some things, but rigged seems to strong a word. I don't care though, I eat it all up!
rook9566 Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 I'm just glad the poll results show a majority of people dont think the show is rigged. It shows that there is some sanity left in this world.
crappysucks Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 CBS would not rig this show in a million years. They would get way to much negative backlash, in addition to there being probably legal issues. Of course, that isn't to say they don't but certain evenst/comps in to benefit certain peoples strengths. That's not rigging though.
TheStilesClan Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 slowly coming into thread looking around oka its safe BB is not rigged running as fast as I can out of thread bye
Cathy Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Nah, it's not rigged. They just have houseguests that make idiotic choices.
Turtle Posted September 3, 2006 Author Posted September 3, 2006 I personally don't think it's rigged. However, I do think that the producers do some kind of manipulating (or whatever you want to call it) to get certain results. Like many people have mentioned how they choose questions in a competition that they know a certain contestant will do better with, and previous houseguests have said that they try to get you to see things differently, or get mad at another houseguest, etc. in the diary room sessions. I know a lot of people were mad about the HOH redo a couple of weeks ago...because Janie won the only week that she could not play in POV...some people found that coincidence a little too suspicious. I still think they should have redone it, but without the contestants that answered incorrectly the first round (as opposed to just the slowest player to answer correctly) becuase they would have lost regardless... anyway...just trying to get the thread back on track. =) LOL, I think we may have caused that announcement... Anyway, I'm glad...thank's Jem =D (Where is the warning thingy? I don't see it...)
squirrel Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Just wondering Turtle, did you see Housecalls with Arnold Shapiro as the guest?
Turtle Posted September 3, 2006 Author Posted September 3, 2006 Okay, cool. I know he said it wasn't rigged, but I still wanted to know what people thought because if he is a producer of the show, obviously he would deny something like that...
BadAssJanie Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 The only people who think BB is rigged are people who dont like Janelle... If anyone else was winning most people would be like "yeah they are great" blah blah blah...Whatever!!
Guest jordansmom Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 That is not true ppl were saying the veto for Cg was rigged. Janie for once has nothing to do with this.
fizzle Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 lol i can see it now: "it was rigged.. the pov was rigged. boobie, Will, and erika all had broken hooks BUT Janelle didnt!!!! FIXED!"
squirrel Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 I wonder what the nerdherd thinks of Janie now
