Format
Big Brother Stinovia is a game show in which a group of contestants, referred to as houseguests, live in a custom-built "house" (actually a set near the Stinovian Television Network headquarters), constantly under video surveillance. While in the house, the contestants are completely isolated from the outside world, meaning no phone, television, internet, magazines, newspaper or contact with those not in the house. This rule could be broken, however, in the event of a medical injury, a family emergency or death. The contestants compete for a grand prize of 250,000 Stinovian Wammies (STW).

At the start of the week in the house, the houseguests compete for the title of Head of Household. The Head of Household for each week is given luxuries such as their own personal bedroom and bathroom. They are also responsible for nominating two houseguests for eviction. The Head of Household is not able to compete in the following weeks Head of Household competition, meaning that a houseguest can not hold the title for two weeks in a row, except for the final week or other stated circumstances. After the Head of Household has made their two nominations, the Head of Household, the two nominees and three players selected by a random draw will compete in the Power of Veto competition, a competition where the winner can choose to VETO (nullify) one of the nominated houseguests. The Power of Veto does not have to be used, it is entirely up to the holder of the Power of Veto. If a nominated player has been taken off using the Power of Veto, the Head of Household has to name a replacement nominee, and it cannot be the houseguest who won the Power of Veto, the houseguest who just got VETOed. All houseguests excluding the Head of Household and nominees later vote to determine which of the two nominees should be evicted, and the nominated houseguest who received the most votes is evicted during a live episode. If there is a tie in the voting, the reigning Head of Household is requried to make the tie-breaker decision. The houseguests are allowed to discuss the nomination and eviction process openly and freely. Whenever a houseguest is evicted, they will be sent home, unless they are apart of an eventual twist which may include a competition to be brought back into the house.

Upon reaching a specific point during the game (usually when there's 9 or 11 players left), the evicted houseguests go on to become members of the jury, which are responsible for choosing who wins the series. The members of the jury live in a separate house, with complete isolation from the outside world, just like the house they were previously evicted from. The jurors are not shown any Diary Room confessionals or interviews, or any footage that may include strategy or details regarding nominations. They are, however, shown a weekly recap of who won Head of Household and the Power of Veto competitions, along with the nomination, Power of Veto and eviction ceremony.

To keep the series intriguing, each season typically features a new twist to change the format of the game. This could include (but not limited to) two Head of Households, a third nominee, a player returning back to the competition after being previously evicted, or immunity for a week, or more. Season 1 of Big Brother Stinovia did not include any game-changing twists.

Incidents

 * The season was critiqued due to the large amount of houseguests who were under the age of 30.
 * A few days after the show had started, it was revealed that fellow houseguest Justine Ezarik had managed to smuggle in a phone into the house, which was used to check up on social medias. As soon as this was revealed, Stinovian Television Network confiscated the phone and scolded Justine for doing such a thing, reminding her of the rules, in which she responded "I didn't mean to do anything bad, I just wanted to see what my friends were up to". Stinovian Television Network was then critiqued for not going through the luggage of the houseguests well enough. It doesn't seem like this affected Justine's decisions during the show, and that she was telling the truth.
