Big Brother 3

To go home, go to Home

Introduction
On Launch Night, 6 Housemates entered the all new Big Brother House; 6 more Housemates entered the following day. This year's house was twice as big as last series' house. The new house included the chamber for nominations, a circular pool, and secret rooms between the walls of the house. This is the first time ever the main house that included the bedroom, kitchen, and lounge was not attached to the staircase. Instead the staircase out of the house led to the backyard. The only thing that stayed the same was the Living Room where Evictions took place. This year, there were many secrets in Big Brother and the secrets included a plethora of intruders. The Launch Night Twist was the Fan Favorite (determined by fans voting in a snap poll) and the Public chose two out of three Intruders to be the Final Housemates (who would then later enter on Day 8).

Intruders

 * Due to the "FINAL HOUSEMATES" twist, Gemma and Nikko, labelled as Latecomers, entered the House on Day 7
 * On Day 7, the new Housemates Gemma and Nikko went to The Platform and chose Misty out of the three possible Gatecrashers (three out of the four were chosen by the Public) to enter the House on Day 10
 * On Day 26, Intruders Stacy and Mathias entered the Big Brother House to host the Wednesday Night Showdown. They were both chosen by random draw out of the three Housemates held in isolation above the Living Room.
 * On Day 40, the new Intruder, Sofia, entered the old Big Brother House and spent time with the fake-evictee. They both re-entered the House together the same night.

Wednesday Night Live Competition
New to the Virtual Big Brother franchise, the Wednesday Night Live Competition is a competition where the winner wins immunity from eviction. This competition takes place after nominations to give the nominated Housemates incentives to win. Whoever is immune from eviction gets to nominate a housemate in their spot, as long as that housemate received at least 1 nomination point during nominations. If there is only one housemate with at least one nomination point or no housemates with any nomination points, anyone can be nominated. Note: The power of immunity is optional - a HM can decide whether or not they want to use it. The competitions ran from Week 3 to Week 10, but was not played during Week 8.
 * Week 3 - "Red Alert" - Winner: Tate ; Removed: Mac ; Re-Nom: Curtis
 * All HMs began in a circle and had to rush to push the red button in the center of the circle. The last HM to push the button would be eliminated and the new round would begin without them. This process continued until the final two HMs where the first person to push the button would win immunity from eviction. Mac had to sit out of the competition due to being voted the worst HM in the Shopping Task.


 * Week 4 - "Totem Holder" - Winner: Nikko ; Removed: Nikko ; Re-Nom: None
 * All HMs stood on a 3 foot high totem pole and had to balance a board with a ball on it. Wind would blow at them every so often. The HM who was able to stand on their pole the longest with their ball won immunity. The new intruders, Stacey and Mathias, competed and if they won, they had to give immunity to someone. Since there was no one to re-nom, the winner could only save themselves or someone else.


 * Week 5 - "Big Trivia" - Winner: Gemma ; Removed: None ; Re-Nom: None
 * All HMs except Mathias and Stacy (who were immune from the Public Vote) faced off against each other. One pair would face a trivia question and the person who got it right stayed in the game while the loser was eliminated. The winner of that round chose a pair of two to face off against each other.


 * Week 6 - "Train Up" - Winner: Alex ; Removed: Alex ; Re-Nom: Gemma
 * All HMs were told to balance on pistons. Without notice, the pistons began moving up and down. The HM to stand on their piston the longest without falling off won Immunity.


 * Week 7 - "3x3 Balance Beam" - Winner: Alex ; Removed: Alex ; Re-Nom: Nikko
 * HMs were split into three groups of three and had to balance on two poles, one for each foot. The HM that stayed up moved on to the final round with the two other winners from the other rounds. The winner of the final round won immunity.
 * Week 8 - NONE due to twist on Day 56
 * Week 9 - "Hay Rollin'" - Winner: Jana ; Removed: Sofia  ; Re-Nom: Nikko
 * HMs were placed on a hay stack that continuously shook. As hay began falling off, the HMs tried to stay on as long as possible. The HM that stayed on the stack the longest without falling off and without pushing another HM off, won immunity.
 * Week 10 - "Laser Tag"
 * HMs were in the darkened arena with bright lasers. They were told to dodge them and if they were struck three times they would be eliminated. The last one standing won immunity and made it to the Final 5.

Twists

 * "An All Female House?!" - Launch Night Part 1 - The 6 Housemates were told by Agatha that all everyone this year would be female and that intruders would be constantly entering since only 6 entered on Day 1. This was a lie and was revealed the following night when the males entered.
 * "FINAL HOUSEMATES" - Launch Night Part 2 - The Fan Favorite (Dixie), who was determined by a snap poll, and the Public both chose one Intruder to become a Housemate and enter the House on Day 8.
 * "Snap Eviction" - Week 1, Day 4 - The female Housemates were given 5 minutes to decide which of the male Housemates (who entered the day before) they wanted to evict. This twist was cancelled since Andrea decided to walk from the game the same day.
 * "Nominating With Help" - Week 1, Day 4 - Housemates nominated for the first time, but in pairs. Their partner was selected by alphabetical order. Both Housemates had to decide on two people to nominate and for how many points.
 * "BB's Ultimate Gift" - Week 1, Day 7 - Helen was selected to receive a gift by Big Brother. All she had to do was find ten Big Brother Eyepieces throughout the House during Week 2; after finding the Eyepieces, Helen entered the Prize Room on Day 14 and won a pass to the Big Brother 3 Final
 * "Survival Trial" - Week 3 Eviction, Day 21 - The HM that received the second most amount of votes to save and second least amount of votes to evict was sent to The Arena to compete in a trial. Upon entering, the HM, Curtis,  learned the trial was about temptation. The choice given to Curtis was immunity for the week, but with two evictions in one week and every other HM was nominated, or chosing a permanent nominee that could not be replaced and take $50,000 from the prize fund, but receive an automatic 2 pts for nominations. Curtis chose to be immune and have two evictions during Week 4.
 * "The Luckiest Evictee In The World" - Week 4 Eviction, Day 28 - The HM to be evicted in the Double Eviction went to The Platform and chose a door. The door they chose led to an amount of money that the HM won and took from the winnings. The options were $1,000, $10,000 , or $20,000.
 * "Best Fake Eviction Ever" - Week 5 Eviction, Day 35 - The HM that received the most votes to save was fake evicted and sent to the old Big Brother House to live in luxury and be immune from next weeks eviction. During their stay, the HM would be visited by ex-HMs and was able to save a nominee from eviction the following week.
 * "Bedlust" - Week 6, Day 37 - All HMs lost their beds, meaning they also lost their privileges to nominate. Scattered around the House were 8 keys. If a HM found a key with their name on it they won both rights back. If a HM found one without their name on it they had to put it back without anyone seeing. HMs who did not find their key have "REVOKED" next to their name in the Nominations list.
 * "Satisfying The Exs" - Week 8 Eviction, Day 56 - The ex-HMs appeared in a Live Show to pull someone out of the House that they believed didn't deserve to be there. The reason of "entering the house later than the others" was deemed unaccpetable.
 * "The Twisted Games" - Week 9 Eviction, Day 63 - The Final Wednesday Night Competition was announced to be played right after the eviction that night
