Twists
- Team Twist: On Day 1, All 16 house guests were brought into the backyard and were put into 4 different teams of 4 house guests each. Team One: Warriors of 6-1, Team Two: Team Commando, Team Three: Team Bantman, Team Four: Leaping Banana Shookers . The Teams lasted until Week 4.
- Battle of the Block: On Night 1 the house guests were informed of the seasons second twist. With this twist in play there would be 2 HoH's for the first 5 weeks of the game. Each HoH nominated 2 house guests for eviction. After the nomination ceremony the nominees would all battle it out in the Battle of the Block competition and the winning duo would escape the block and dethrone the HoH that nominated them.
- Pandora's Box: On Week 6, Kody, the HoH was offered to go inside Pandora's Box but he declined making Gupta on Week 7 receive the same offer but this time Gupta accepted it and he unleashed a 17th houseguest, Parker on the house.
- Triple Eviction: At the Week 6 eviction after Fluffy was evicted, the house guests played a weeks worth of Big Brother in one night. The HoH, Brady, got to name 3 nominees and at the end of the week, 2 of them went home. The way voting worked was that the players safe that week voted for the person they wanted to save.
- Double Vote: At the Week 8 Power of Veto, David eliminated himself to recieve a second vote going into that weeks eviction. He used both of his votes to evict Alec.
