Twists & Changes

 * The Weakest Link -  If a nominee survives an eviction, they will have the Immunity for the next week only.  They are allowed to participate in competitions but cannot be nominated.
 * All votes count - During first week there would be no HOH, instead The Houseguests would each vote for two people to be put onto the block. The two houseguests with the most votes would then end up on the block. If the POV is used, The Houseguests would vote again for a re-nom.
 * America's Care Package -  At the beginning of Week 6, JeJo introduced America's Care Package. This twist allowed the viewers to vote for one HouseGuest to receive a special advantage within the game each week. Once a HouseGuest received a Care Package, he/she was not eligible to receive another in the future.

 * Save-A-Friend - the winner of the power could give an immunity to one of the houseguests. Angela won this power and gave the immunity to Will.
 * Super Safety the winner of this power had an immunity for the week. He could also gave the immunity to the other person but if he did so they wouldn’t be able to compete in the next HOH. Will won this power and didn’t give immunity to some else too.
 * Co-HOH - the winner of this power was immune for the week and got a chance to nominate one of the nominees for eviction. Connie won this power and nominated Val.
