Diamond Power of Veto **may contain spoilers**
Mug Costanza:
So can someone please explain what the stipulations of the Diamond Power of Veto are? Does it pretty much let Matt overrule whoever wins the Golden POV? Or is it something like the Coup d'Etat, where he uses it before voting takes place?

He can use it for 2 weeks only.
It lets him take someone or himself off the block AND name their replacement.

he is not allowed to reveal that he has it...
Interesting idea...do you let someone do their bit with the POV and then say...wait just a minute?? :lol:
I don't think Matt will use it this week, whether Brendon or Rachel goes is no biggie, and as HOH he already gets to do the replacement nom.
But NEXT week he could be on the block, he might need to use it. And perhaps even FAST if it is a double elim.

When Matt read the card it said, "can only be used at the next two evictions."
So, I assume it would be used like the coup d'etat, before the voting Matt would stand up and say, "I wish to exercise the Diamond Power of Veto that I got from Pandora's Box." Then Julie will ask him who he wants to save and who he wants to nominate in their place.
I would also assume that whoever is HOH would be exempt, as well as the gold POV holder. But I wonder if he could re-nominate someone who was saved at the regular POV meeting?
Also because of the possible drama this could cause, I don't think either week will be a double eliimination.
TexasLady:
Hmmm good question, could someone be renominated. I don't think so, nor should the POV holder be nominated. That cuts down the remaining choices of HGs. When Chicken George won HOH the All-Star double elimination, he only had a few minuted to decide and for some unknown reason nominated Howie. Dooming him. :lol:
I don't know if there will be a double eviction or not. The HGs surely think there will be.
I don't like the way they did this Diamond POV. I think everyone should have had a chance to win it, especially when the HOH endurance, IMO, was designed for a smaller framed person just like the first one. The year Boogie won the golden power of veto, everyone had an opportunity to figure out because there were clues that they had to decipher.
I can't remember, didn't we vote for Jeff to win it last year?
chill_sd:
Last year it was the coup d'etat, but yes, America voted for it to go to Jeff. And Boogie won the same power in All-Stars.
