Here's hoping this thread can be a place where "feedless" people can come to get brief but consistent updates--whether a ton is going on or not much. A thread that will give the basics, but covers a lot. Somewhat like IHH, but more expanded and updated much more often.

I was under the impression that's what the "Important House Happenings" thread is for.

I think we are just wanting "more" The IHH is great, but sometimes I would like more details - which is where the youtube thread comes in I suppose - but on the old computer I have I cant view youtubes, I have to wait till dh comes home and IF I can use his computer (its his work computer, he actually has to use it for work!!) something along these lines: http://bbdish.blogspot.com/ but from the tvch family! I've grown to love this place! Or the BitOBunny reports!! I miss those too!! 140 characters of Bunny just isnt enough (her tweets on Twitter)

Honestly, the more we dilute, the more the same thing has to be posted in multiple places and the harder it will be for people to find information. Is there some fear of posting in the Important/Interesting House Happenings thread that we don't know about? The Important/Interesting House Happenings thread should be a lot more than just who is nommed and who won the POV. We all know that soon enough. It should probably include interesting stuff like who is talking to who, who did what annoying stuff, who argued with who and about what, who is allied with who, some interesting conversation they had about their lives - stuff like that. The only thing it can't have is discussion because then it will get too long and people won't be able to find information. So we have an Important House Happenings Discussion thread for that. We all want to do what works best for people so whatever works for everyone is generally fine with us.

It should Jimmer, but it doesn't. (regarding your 2nd paragraph.) That is why I tried to start this thread. I see "threadership" way down as compared to years past, so I don't see the dilution thing ever happening... Anyways, I tried. I'm done. My opinion is out there. Do with it what ya want...

I'm not sure this is possible. When A new post is made, a thread moves to the top. Could IHH and IHHD be linked so anytime there is a post to one or the other, they would both move to the top together and sink together? Like Reader, I prefer my BB news from TVCH tho I can find better summaries elsewhere.

Ok guys.... I will try to inform people of what I know so far... It appears Russell won the POV by spelling the word Shotgun... Jeff threw the competition or so they say... In order to save herself Lydia threw Jeff, Jordan and Braden under the bus and is now aligned with Russell. Natalie and Jesse are closely aligned. Natalie told Jesse she is really 24 but no one else knows. Yesterday morning... Russell and Jeff got into a yelling match about the POV. Then Natalie and Jeff got into one. Jeff can not understand where all the hostility came from. (IMO Jesse because he is jealous and Lydia's words) It also appears that Braden is being backdoored. Ronnie who has too many fingers in the pot told the plan to Jordan who in turned told Jeff. The whole house appears to have marked JeFF as a troublemaker. The night time crew is Casey, Jeff, and Jordan. Michelle made an appearance to that group last night. (I went to sleep and church this morning so things could have changed)

I second Gidget every year I always came only here for my updates! its the first thing I check in the morning! when Michelle went in the back yard she told Casey she did throw out his name because she thought he was abrasive for asking about her job and education! When she had said it the first night! Casey said he was sorry if she took it that way it was just a question as he cant remember everyones info from the first evening! after she went inside Casey said geeze you have to so watch what you say to anyone! Like his Mom told him when he was in school the quickest way to get anything repeated is tell one person! And in this house it magnifys ( quoting from memory so not word for word)

Watching a little bit of last night's BBAD, and before being stopped for talking about production Chima revealed she was recruited from Craig's list; Kevin said he sent in a video, and has done for a few years; Natalie said she went to open casting and Laura said it was "a long story" but she wasn't allowed to talk about it. Laura also seemed a bit suspicious about Natalie's age as she said she'd wanted to be on the show before but couldn't because she was under 21.

It sounded like she responded to an ad, but they cut her off pretty quickly when she said it.

I'm not sure what the purpose of this folder is when there is a long established "live feeds" folder for those especially without feeds. The 11th Season has only just begun on Thursday, and everyone is busy trying to get live feeds set up or looking for feed reports. I understand that. Most people at this site are just starting to roll in for the BB info. I've spend most of today posting in there and so have some other people. When there aren't any posts there really isn't a whole lot to report on the HGS - we can only post so many times that 'so and so is tanning by the pool'. I've read thru this folder and any of the posts here which refer to happenings of the HGs could easily be posted in the Live Feeds folder. After all this website is clearly known for that specific folder reporting. In the end it doesn't really matter to me personally, as I have the live feeds. I just felt sorry for those who posted earlier this weekend asking about live feeds reporting and felt I could donate some of my time on this first weekend.

I agree with Loppes. What is the difference between this thread and live feed thread? either way don't forget to thank the LFPs in the thank you thread!!

the difference is this thread can provide a summary of the live feeds with some individual input - the live feed thread is continuous - you have to read through several archives in order to get some idea of what happened over a period of tme - this thread is for short summary versions

The other difference is that when THIS thread was created, there were barely ANY posts in the LFPs thread. If there are live feeeds being reported, I'd bet this thread may sort of fall to the bottom.

Thanks Cali and Costa. You guys explained it well. With any luck this thread may fall to the bottom!! Thanks also to any live feeder who adds to this thread or house happenings. Bottom line is some folks love to chat as they watch the feeds. And that is great. Nothing wrong with that at all. They have a lot of fun. Again great. But to find out what is going on, especially when one does not have a lot of time, you may have to spend a lot of time looking/weeding. And this thread was created before the Important house happenings thread title was expanded. Before that "expansion" often a whole lot was left out. Just super main things were posted, ie: who got POV, who won HoH, etc. So anywho, let the information continue. The main things plus some background stuff (who's plotting, aligning, changing their mind, being a baby *coughchimacough* about having to sleep in the metal room, etc. As always, thank you to all who have the feeds and keep us all informed!! So while I am here, anything worthy to report about last night? TIA!

Lydia was taken off "the chair"; Brandon was nominated - so far Chima is supposedly safe but we all know how that goes!

The last few years somebody (sorry, I can't remember who) did a daily synopsis of all the live feeds and I loved it...I don't have the feeds (yet, I'm trying to resist) this year or else I would be happy to assist...it was posted in the mornings and just kind of caught up most of the important stuff during the day.
