There seems to be some confusion about this on this Board. Several say Jeff "overthrows" Chima and becomes HoH. If he does, then it is probably best he not use it. He loses too much and he will not accomplish what everyone thinks he will with Jessie and/or Nat. What does he lose? 1. The ability to vote for eviction. Chima will have that. This is why his plans to evict Jessie will not work -- assuming that what he wants to do. There is one less vote (Jeff's) to get rid of Jessie and one more vote (Chima's) to keep him. 2. The ability to play for next week's HoH. But Chima can be HoH 2 weeks in a row and will immediately go after him for "ruining" her reign. 3. Any ability to enjoy the luxuries and prerogatives of being HoH. He will hold it for only 15-30 minutes, and then can't try for a full week as HoH. It seems to me that Jeff is better off not using it since he can't get what he wants anyway.

Chima will not have the ability to vote. The rules state that Jeff can't vote and the HOH can't vote. There will be 5 people voting. He also doesn't lose the ability to play for HOH. He's not HOH for the 5 minutes. He simply won the ability to overthrow the current nominations and put new people up in their place.

If he is not HoH, why can't he vote for eviction, Gurliegirl?

I didn't make the rules, I just read them. Somewhere in this thread about 4 days ago or so they were posted. Verbatim out of Julie's mouth. I wish I could find them, but there has been so much going on lately that I don't remember where they were posted. Friday maybe?

If Jeff doesn't use it he's toast. He needs to get Jesse out of there. He knows that Russ and Jesse have something going, he's mentioned it. Chima will either have to grab Russ to her side (which I don't see happening) or take a chance with Lydia and Michelle. Lydia and Natalie hate each other, Nats only being nice because Chima wants Russ gone. I trust Michelle, Russell, Jeff and Jordan to try and get rid of the others and then go after each other. I think if Jesse is gone Russ will want to go to the end with Michelle because he thinks the others hate her more.

If uses the power of veto to find a way of evicting either Jesse or Natalie, that is the best possible scenario He should take off Russell and Lydia,nominate Jesse and Natalie, and one is gone for sure. He won't have to be concerned about being HOH

Gurliegirl, I think you are referring to the Julie's description of the CDE from another season. So far this season, she's only talked about taking down and replacing nominations - there's been no word about whether or not Chima and/or Jeff can vote, or who breaks a tie.

This is a summary from the thread here, mentioned at the end. These are the CDE rules from the past season it was offered: *Coup D'Etat winner can overthrow the Head of Household by replacing the two nominees with anyone you want. (Does NOT say the Coup holder becomes the HoH.) *Can use the power only one time, right before live voting. *HOH and winner of the POV are immune (can not be nominated). *HOH does not vote. *Coup D'Etat winner does not vote. *In the event of a tie...CDE winner is tie breaker vote. Discussed in detail in the *Jeff Coup* thread... ../10972/6802228.html"#DEE7EF"> | Naja

Right, all we know this season is HOH and POV winner are the only ones safe from Jeff's power of getting to replace the nominees. This season none of that extra stuff you posted was ever mentioned, What555456.

Jesse and Natalie both planning on putting Jeff and Jordan on the block next week. Just putting one of them out of the house increases his chances in the next HOH and the game. Chima will be livid(and have no power) but Russel will be greatful(and still hate Chima). Michele and Kevin would both love to see Jesse disappear. Natalie will be so rattled she may implode.

He MUST use it. Lydia and Russ could then move to (at least temporarily) Jeff and Jordan's side. Get out Chima, Jessie, Nat.......and then it's a new game (minus the bad people .

I do not agree with the title of this thread. I think Jeff has to use the power to put up Jessie/Nat or he will be simply evicting himself in the next couple of weeks.

Jeff would get to vote in a tie. You forgot that Kevin will vote to evict Jessie. Poor Kevin, people just keep forgetting to count him! I really think I heard Julie say that the Wizard could play for HOH Thursday after eviction.

If Jeff uses it there is no doubt in my mind that Jesse will go home over Nat. Neither they nor Chima can vote. As far as I can see the only ones who would vote to keep Jesse is Lydia and perhaps Russell. Jordan, Michelle and Kevin will vote Jesse out. Without Jesse it screws Lydia, Natalie and Russell the three who have final deals with Jesse. Russ will not team up with Chima, Michelle, Kevin or Lydia. He will try to team with Nat, but she will get on the "all girls team" once Jesse is gone.

How would there be a tie - Nat/Jesse on the block.. votes from Kevin, Lydia, Michelle, Sophie and Russell? A tie for votes is impossible

The coup d'etat was also available last week, if Jeff had used it then, there could have been a tie. That's why Julie said "in the event of a tie..."

If Chima gets to vote, I think she will vote to evict Jessie.

In the "Twitter" thread, Chima states clearly that she wants to pick off the males, one by one. Her vote will be based on that premise.

It wouldn't matter if Jeff or Chima got to vote they would both vote to evict Jesse, so it's moot. Voting will be Kevin/Russell and Lydia/Michelle/Jordan. Michelle and Jordan will vote to evict Jesse and Kevin will do the same, because Chima has included him in the all girls allience. There is not doubt in my mind that Lydia will vote Nat out and Russell will probably do the same because he has a deal with Jesse to go to the final two. That is three vote to evict Jesse and possibly two to evict Nat. There will not be a tie. If I am wrong at least one of them will go home.

so who will actually vote.....Lets say Chima is still HOH, Kevin is still POV holder (*he hasnt given it to Lydia) Jeff theoretically cannot vote. so russ lydia come down to vote Jess nat go up -no voting for them. Jordan votes Lydia Votes Russell Votes Kevin Votes michelle votes i can see Jessie staying...it all depends on Russell and whether he stays true to his word (ya ya I know! as if! )
