The Twists

 *  Newbie Season : This season featured the first newbie cast of Big Brother Cyclone.
 * Assassin: This twist was announced on premiere night and consisted of three roles: assassin, spy, and doctor.
 * As the assassin, the player would have to correctly guess who would be evicted from the game. If they were successful as an assassin, they could pick the next assassin and would get an advantage in the HOH competition. If they were unsuccessful, then the next one would be picked randomly. If the assassin won veto, they would automatically renominate their target. This is the only instance in which the identity of the assassin would be revealed other than if the spy guesses they are the assassin. Depending on if the HOH was live or not, they would be able to guess who would be evicted either prior to the HOH competition or prior to the nomination ceremony.
 * As the spy, the player would have to correctly guess who the assassin was. If they were successful as a spy, they would get immunity for the next week but be unable to compete in the following HOH. If they wished to compete, they would receive an advantage in the competition. They would only get to guess who the assassin is before the veto winner was revealed.
 * As the doctor, the player would be able to choose one person to be immune from being a final nominee. The doctor would be unable to keep themselves safe. The immune person would be revealed AFTER the final nominations and if they were on the block, they would be taken off and the HOH would have to make another replacement nominee. Depending on if the HOH was live or not, they would be able to pick someone to be immune either prior to the HOH competition or prior to the nomination ceremony.


 *  Survivor Week:  This twist was announced at the end of Week 5 after JD was evicted. Instead of a Head of Household competition there was a reward challenge, followed by an Individual Immunity Challenge. The winner, Lara, was immune, but did not have the power of a Head of Household. The outgoing Head of Household, Austin, was eligible for this competition, and the immunity winner, Lara, was also eligible for Head of Household during the next week.  In place of an eviction, there was a Tribal Council. Everyone cast a vote and the person with the most votes against them was the next person voted out of the game.   There was also a Hidden Immunity Idol at play that could only be played at Tribal Council. This idol negated ANY votes cast against the person it was played on, Icy.
 *  Anonymous HOH:  This twist was announced at the end of Survivor Week after Brendan's elimination. All of the houseguests competed in an HOH competition that could be submitted in their DR. The houseguest who won HOH was NOT allowed to tell anyone that they are the HOH.  This twist also gave the HOH the power to invite 2 people chosen specifically to ask for their opinion on nominees or 4 people at random for their opinions. Only the 2 people would get to know who the HOH is. The 4 people did NOT know. The 2 selected houseguests were NOT allowed to discuss this with other houseguests.  POV players were chosen anonymously in the Host chat, and were informed after the nomination ceremony if they would be playing in the Veto competition.  Nominations were not anonymous, and the POV winner was also not anonymous.
 *  Final 3:  This was revealed at the same time as our jury was revealed. Instead of having a final 2 like in a typical Big Brother, three people would be able to plea their case to the seven jury members.
