Power of Veto

The Power of Veto is a power in Big Brother. The Power of Veto allows the owner to veto one of the Nominations off the Block. The Head of Household chooses a new nomination.

The Power of Veto is won weekly in a competition. Six houseguests compete for the Power of Veto, the Head of Household, the two nominees, and three other houseguests.

In season 2, a Secret Power of Veto was unleashed among the house as a twist, that could be used after the normal Veto is used.

The Power of Veto Contestant Selection
The Power of Veto is based on the current version that was introduced in the U.S. Version of Big Brother. The Head of Household and two nominees will reach into a bag filled with small discs with either houseguests names on them or "Houseguest's Choice," where the HoH or nominee chooses the additional player. The six houseguests would compete in a competition determining the winner of the Power of Veto.

The Power of Veto Meeting
The winner of the Power of Veto is called to the[Diary Room, where they are briefed on the procedures of the Power of Veto meeting. The Veto Holder then proceeds to the Memory Wall, retrieves their Veto, and studies the portraits of all the remaining houseguests as they finalize their decision. The Veto Holder then calls in the remaining houseguests, who await the meeting in the backyard in the first season. In the second season, the houseguests are already in the living room and the holder will go outside, because the Memory Wall is outside. Then the houseguests take their respective seats, either on the couches or on Nomination Block. The Veto Holder begins the meeting by explaining the power the Veto holds and then asks the nominees to make a final plea. Each nominee makes a brief speech, if they so desire, to try and convince the Veto Holder to use the Veto on them. Once the speeches are concluded, the Veto Holder makes their decision. If they choose to use the Veto, they place the Veto around the neck of the nominee they have chosen to save. At this point, the Veto Holder is seated, Head of Household stands, and chooses a replacement nominee, who then immediately takes the empty seat. Right before the Veto Meeting is over, the Veto Holder will put the Veto in the box if they are the one operating the ceremony. After all decisions are made, the Veto Holder calls the meeting adjourned.
