The last housemate who made it to the list and who completed the top 14 is Denise from Team High Voltage. However, she was made to wait outside of the mansion and Big Brother entrusted her fate to a task given to Paco and Slater. It was Paco who completed the puzzles that paved the way for Denise to enter the house. Consequently, Big Brother announced that Denise will be transferred to Paco's team, team Wayuk.

In total, 5 housemates from Team Wayuk made it to the top 14 and 9 housemates from Team High Voltage. Denise' inclusion to Team Wayuk will make her the sixth member. So as part of the Intensity 7 Aftershock, Big Brother announced that another housemate from Team High Voltage will be transferred to Team Wayuk.

Pinoy Big Brother Unlimited: Update 11/19/2011

Unlimited twists and surprises marked last night’s episode of the Pinoy Big Brother Unlimited. The fate of the 3G’s and Power Strangers, the results of their weekly tasks and a glimpse of the new PBB house were among the highlights of this Saturday’s edition.

After 1 week in the Big Brother house, the fate of the “3G’s” and the “Power Strangers” were revealed last night. Of the 3 Power Strangers, only Reg earned the right to be declared as an official housemate after the other two failed in their task of hiding their faces to the other housemates.

Meanwhile, the 3G’s were successful in urging the male housemates to choose them over the other female UnliNight housemates. The majority of the male housemates voted to let go of Wendy, Diane and Joya in favor of the 3G’s. However, Big Brother announced that not all of the male housemates voted for the 3G’s to stay. Since this is the case, Big Brother declared that only 1 of the 3G’s will earn the right to become an official housemate. And the other female housemates will decide who among the 3G’s will stay.

Another big surprise that was revealed last night was when a new house was shown. The three UnliNight housemates that were voted out of “Looban” were transferred to a beautiful and elegant house, much like the other PBB houses in previous seasons. The three ladies were overjoyed when they saw the house. A sumptuous meal was also prepared for the three ladies who can’t help but to think of the other housemates that they left at the Looban.

As for their weekly tasks, the UnliDay housemates failed in the Tower of Card task. Their task was to build a tower of cards as high as the tallest among the group which is Seichi. Earlier, Seichi was tasked and succeeded to act and dress as a baby in exchange of a platform where they will put the tower of cards. However, even with the platform and a change of strategy, the UnliDay housemates failed in their task as the cards crumbled in the last minute.

Just before the show ends, Seichi and Jaz were called into the confession room and Kuya announced that they will need to leave the house and they are now officially UnliNight housemates. Obviously, the two housemates were surprised. Will they be transferred to the new house? Or will they be returned to the “Looban.” Who among the 3G’s will be chosen as an official housemate? All of these plus the first nomination will be revealed tomorrow night.

Pinoy Big Brother Unlimited: Update

True to its promise, Pinoy Big Brother Unlimited continues to entertain viewers with its unlimited twists and surprises. Last night marked the announcement of the results of the housemates’ weekly tasks and week-long tasks. Big Brother has also cooked a new twist as the show revealed the “3G’s” and the “Power Strangers” which will enter the UnliNight and UnliDay houses respectively.

The weekly task of the UnliDay housemates involves origami or the Japanese art of paper folding and their task is to memorize all the paper designs so that when Kuya picks any of them randomly, they will be able to do the chosen design. They even got plus 2 points as they successfully completed the noodle slurping task. In the end, they got 17 out of the 20 designs and Big Brother announced that they won the weekly task and they will receive 100% of their weekly budget.

Meanwhile, the UnliNight housemates were equally successful as they completed their week-long task which is to perform pole dancing and to be able to stay on top of the pole for 2 minutes. Tol had difficulty staying on the pole but he was able to complete the task anyway. As a result, they will enjoy unlimited water supply for next week! Their weekly task was also successful. Thanks to Casey’s efforts. She was able to complete the fake ritual with her recruits without the other housemates noticing what was going on. Since Big Brother announced that they won the weekly task, they will have ample supply of food for next week.

One of the highlights of last night’s episode is the introduction of the “3G’s” and the “Power Strangers” who are out to enter the two houses. The 6 were taken from the 30 reserved housemates which were shown during the opening of the show. Their identities were not yet revealed although audiences were given a glimpse of their backgrounds. The 3G’s were presented in silhouette while the Power Strangers were in masks. The “3G's” will enter the “Looban” and mingle with the UnliNight Housemates while the "Power Strangers" will join the UnliDay housemates.

Because of his decision not to pursue with his task, Slater Young was given an automatic nomination by Big Brother. He was made to read the PBB rule book where it clearly states that all housemates should participate and follow all the tasks given by Big Brother and failure to comply would mean consequences or punishments. Aside from the automatic nomination, Slater was also tasked to help the “3G's” on their task of convincing the other male housemates that they should stay inside the house. If the “3G's” are successful, he will also choose a female housemate which will need to leave the “Looban.”

The 3G's were introduced as:
- Pretty Miss Perfect ng Nueva Ecija
- Sexy Single Mommy ng Pampanga
- Independent Woman ng Sampaloc

The Power Strangers:
- Astiging Kenkoy ng Paranaque
- Pilyong Rakitero ng QC
- Poging Petics ng La Union

Will they be successful with these tasks? Will they go along well with the official housemates?
