If they put as much effort into keeping us entertained with week-long tasks as they do with their silly twists...they could actually get more viewers!

I hate this.

Will someone explain to me why the hell AG has to mess with a good thing? Why can't she leave the show alone without any of her freaking twists!!!!!!!!!

Assuming it is true that AG will favor someone, who do you think it will be?

Jimmer, I think that AG had a thing for the Donatos, and Keesha is pretty much a dead ringer for Daniele. oh, and she was RECRUITED! From Hooters. ummmm....

So I think AP will be Keesha, or someone who would benefit Keesha in the game.

JMO!

The only good thing about this is that we only have to put up with it for a week, not a whole season!

It could change the whole direction of the game, though, and in an artificial way...I wish the producers would come up with something original overall...the comps are repetitive and cheesy.

Hell, we are all pretty sure this week will be endurance for HOH.

We know what the food comps are going to be (slop, no slop, winning different foods for each day of the week when they're down to 7)...the format is old and tired.

Then, what do they come up with? Something that's been done before. They're FIRED!!

If only some of the posters here were on AG's staff, you guys have come up with much better ideas!

If they want us to participate in the game, GIVE US ONE VOTE!!!

Please! Just do that, and I'll forgive you for this idiocy, Allison Grodner!

The only 'twisty' part is that we get to pick AP (SUPPOSEDLY!). And the only 'good' part is that it's just for a week. Still, I don't like it.

They didn't let us pick AP when they had it, and I really took issue with that.

After all, if he's OUR player we should have been able to pick him!

First of all, I think AG doesn't like the direction the show is going and sees that the fans are complaining. She probably wants to change the course of the show in her direction. No matter who we vote for, she has the winner picked out already. I know, I have no trust in these producers. They showed time and time again that this show is not on the up and up.

But giving them the some credit (which believe me is hard to do), and this is legit. I think it would be foolish to give it to Renny. We all love her and it would put her in a bad position in the game. I would love for it to be Jessie. Could you see him now, knowing America picked him and not being able to tell anybody? You know he couldn't pull it off. He wouldn't know what to do and he would look like a idiot. At least we could get a few laughs watching him totally disgrace himself. I would come back to watch again, if he was picked. It would be hysterical.

Lorry, Here are the reasons why I want Renny chosen for America's player for a week.

#1. She will know America loves her.

#2. I feel there is no way any of these kids will let one of the "older people" get into a position to win the big money, so at least Renny could get an extra $20,000 if she is picked as AP.

think we need to be careful who we make America's Player, they have to be someone who can influence and not get voted out quickly, I think that leaves out Jerry and Renny. I think it would be hysterical to make Memphis do what we want, but he already got the car. Who else is influential? We could make Libra go crazier, hahahahahaha!

The thing that worries me about Renny being AP, is that I do think she has a good chance to go all the way, and I fear that people will vote for her to do things that may mess up her game.

She's doing great, and is liked by everyone except Jessie and maybe Jerry.

I would hate it if producer interference caused her to lose.

HL, you bring up a lot of very good points in your blog.

I agree...and yes..there are many unanswered ?'s as to how this is going to work.

Naja, speaking for myself I don't like it because, not sure I can explain it, lol.

Back when Eric was AP, that was part of the game from start to finish. He went in knowing he had to do it and that it could either help or hurt him and that he had to tailor his game and strategy to that.

Doing it now though, three weeks into the game can really mess someones game up and while I know expect the unexpected and all, these hg's didn't sign on for that.

It might be fun? to do that to someone you (general, not a specific you) don't like but if it's your favorite, maybe not so much. Last AP, a lot of people voted for things that weren't in Eric's best interest and caused him all kinds of problems. There was also a lot of discussion about whether America was voting to help Eric win the game or voting for things to make the game go a different way (not sure I'm phrasing that right.) It might be nice to see someone I like win $20,000, but not if it comes at the expense of them going against their alliance or doing something they wouldn't normally do, especially when it's just for one week.

The press release said that the HG would be 'offered' the AP...like they CAN refuse to do it.

I would love it if everyone voted - and the HG said "No'

Another twist gone wrong....

(would they offer it to the next highest vote getter, and will they get a 'penalty nom' (Ha!) if they reveal AP?)

I think that even if somebody turned the AP task down, Grodner would make sure that somebody else did it. She's not going to let her twist go without a fight.

ETA - And thanks Rose! :-)

I think we need to start thinking strategically.

It's gonna happen so lets take advantage of it.
If someone from JMM wins HOH its a pretty good bet that April or Keesha and Libra will be put up.

If the other side wins HOH they will most likely put up Jessie and Memphis.

We don't want to waste the vote on someone who is on the block or has no pull.

That would leave Ollie, Ollie has pull and has an in with Memphis.

I would not want to see Renny get hurt by being AP. She only really has Keesha in the house.

What do you all think?

I've only been watching the shows and very very rarely visit the board this year, but I like Renny and absolutely cannot stand Jessie/Michelle/Libra and don't much like Memphis or Angie. I'd love for Renny to get the AP thing IF it's only fun stuff and nothing that could really hurt her.

OOH, I see Sportsfan's point.

OTOH, Renny will not win the whole game any ways. Let her pocket 20G!

If I were in the house I would do it in a heartbeat. Any opportunity for sure cash would be great. I just wouldn't do any individual task I thought would hurt my game. But you could make most of it work for you if you are smart. I would do it and then go around the rest of the time and make subtle accusations against someone else in the house being America's Player.

The truth is that most of these people are in this for the exposure, so anything to get extra screen time will be seen as good for them, money or not. They will not be victims.

I don't think America's Player was the problem last time...I think Eric was just bad at being it!
