Big Brother Returns was a spin-off season of the game show Big Brother. The season premiered on August 26, 2017 and was discontinued on September 1, 2017. mine_man_ was the host. This season featured 16 houseguests. The season was set to be renamed to Big Brother 3 if successful, however, it was canceled after a week.
Format
The contestants, referred to as "houseguests," take part in several compulsory challenges that determine who will win food, luxuries, and power in the house each week (each week may not be a real week, but rather a game week). At the start of each week, the houseguests compete in the Head of Household (HoH) competition. The winner of the HoH competition will select two houseguests to be nominated for eviction. Each week, six houseguests are selected to compete in the Power of Veto (PoV) competition: the reigning HoH, their two nominees and three houseguests selected by random draw. The winner of the PoV competition wins the right to either revoke the nomination of one of the nominated houseguests or leave them as is; if the Veto winner uses this power, the HoH must immediately nominate another houseguest for eviction. The PoV winner is also immune from being named as the replacement nominee. All houseguests vote to evict one of the two nominees, with the exception of the nominees and the Head of Household, who is only allowed to vote in the event of a tie, in which case they must do so publicly. This compulsory vote is conducted privately. The nominee with the majority of votes will be evicted from the house, after which the cycle begins again. Houseguests may voluntarily leave the house at any time and those who break the rules may be ejected from the house. The last seven evicted houseguests will form the Big Brother jury and vote for the winner during the season finale. Breaking promises and making alliances are allowed in this game. Typically, they are used to advance one game, and hurt others'.
Challenges occur separately, where each have a time frame to be submitted. Voting is also an open time window, where votes are to be cast and are sent to mine_man_ privately. Houseguests are allowed to change their vote until all votes are in. If a houseguest does not vote in the time frame and makes no contact with mine_man_, they can possibly be ejected from the game. There is no house to be locked in. All social interactions happen through any means, and the game is a side-game to daily server goings. All notices are placed on this page. Check often for updates.
Twists
Secret Assassins
For the whole season, each houseguest is given a random target. If a houseguest wins Head of Household and gets their target evicted, the houseguest wins $175. Additionally, if they evict their target before jury period starts, they also receive safety for the next eviction. If somebody new joins the game, that houseguest will not have a target put on them or given to them. If a target is evicted and rejoins, the bounty will be placed on them again for the same houseguest to collect it.

Deception Offering
Every week, a power is given to a random player. Each player cannot win more than one power. These powers can be either small or game changing. If a power is refused, it goes to the next player on the list.
Week | Name | Winner | Affects | Details |
---|---|---|---|---|
3 | Third Nominee | godzilltrain | Nominations | The winner of this power will be able to nominate a third nominee for both evictions in Week 3. The winner of this power cannot reveal this power. If the winner of this power is nominated, they will be revealed and will recieve immunity for this week.
