Pinoy Big Brother: Double Up (OT)

Talk all you want about it here.

A few days after Melisa "Melai" Cantiveros was announced as the winner of PBB Double Up, some fans questioned the showing of the vote ranking of the housemates 4 days before the big night. ( http://ph.news.yahoo.com/abs/20100215/tph-pbb-vote-results-not-rigged-85c5a6c.html ) They said it affected the standing of 2nd Big Placer Paul Jake Castillo (who was leading at that time) in the final tally of text votes.

The management of Pinoy Big Brother denied accusations that the voting system had been manipulated to favor Melai and maintained that she deserved the win.

What do you think? Do you think Melai indeed is the rightful winner or was there a manipulation that took place in the voting system to favor one housemate?

I already said to myself that Melai will definitely win the moment ABS-CBN showed the rankings 4 nights before the big night. Fans of Melai were already aware that they need to double or triple their efforts to make their idol win. This was the first time that ABS CBN revealed the names of the leading housemates prior to the big night, the act was very unfair. I think ABS CBN made an effort to do this because they want Melai to win since she has been one of the main reasons why the ratings were high.

Paul Jake should have won..Unfortunately, this country is packed with cheaters.

Although I would say Melai isn't exactly an "undeserving" winner, clearly there was a manipulation when the management of Pinoy Big Brother showed the results 4 days before the big night. This was never done before, why did they have to do it this time?
