Peridiam 07/19/18 11:23:16 PM #210:	GTM posted... Peridiam posted... The point of the original BB5 backdoor was to completely prevent a player from being able to save themselves. It was easy to pull off in 5&6. Now with the random draw it just means if theyve played in the veto then they had the chance to save themselves, which isnt what the backdoor outlined. But why is that an important factor to the definition that BB historians get nitpicky about it? Like, can we say "the classic backdoor isn't possible anymore so this version of the backdoor (backdoor V2, let's say) has evolved and allows them to play in the veto because the veto draw is now beyond the HoH's control" It's important because it's true to the definition. There's no deeper meaning. It's just... that's the definition. The 'classic' backdoor is still possible. It's just tougher to pull off with RNG. There's no term to describe what happens if you're the backdoor target but are selected to play in the veto. It's just not a backdoor anymore. --- https://imgur.com/6Lra0Xf https://imgur.com/fZbEYu0 <cite>Peridiam posted [p:905390971] in Survivor/B...
