- ^ In week 1, all housemates made their eviction nominations. On eviction night, it was revealed that all housemates were actually up for eviction, before the eviction for that week was cancelled.

- ^ In week 3, under Sis Tamara and Yoli's leadership, the housemates won their first 100% wager.
- ^ For the third week in a row, only the HoH and deputy HoH were allowed to nominate, with HoH once again having the privilege to save and replace.
- ^ Week 5 was the first week that all housemates had the opportunity to nominate other housemates for possible eviction. Both the HoH and deputy HoH were immune from nomination while the HoH had to perform a save and replace in front of all the housemates.
- ^ The Conspiracy Corner was introduced, where housemates could discuss who they want to nominate.
- ^ In week 8, instead of nominations, the Ultimate Veto Power Games were played, where the winning housemate and two other housemates of their choosing would be guaranteed a spot in the finale. The Conspiracy Corner was also removed.
- ^ In week 9, all housemates except for the Ultimate Veto Power Holder and two housemates of their choosing were up for eviction.
