Upon closing applications, producers put hopeful applicants into a public poll offering a pass straight into the house for whoever receives the highest percentage. The poll was closed at 3/2c on August 8th 2013, and the official cast was realeased shortly after.

Before the season started, it was announced that 13 houseguests would enter the house on premier night, but it was later said that there would be 14 players.

The HoH must nominate two of their fellow houseguests for possible eviction. Then houseguets compete in the Power of Veto competition, where the winner get's a chance to veto one of the HoH's nominations, if they do the HoH myust name a replacement nominee, but cannot nominate the veto winner. All houseguests, apart from the nominees then vote to evict one of the nominees. (The HoH only votes in the event of a tie).
