At the end of Thursday night's "live eviction" show, during the section where Julie Chen is sharing with the viewers the reasons to stay tuned for upcoming shows, she stated that there would be a CHANGE in the game. *Note, not a twist, but a change! She then left viewers with a tease by stating -see how this will cause the houseguests to change their way of playing the game- or something to that effect. My Questions: Did anyone else watch long enough to see that section? If so, what CHANGE in the game, do you suppose will take place that will make the hampsters play differently? Why do you think they are "changing the game"?

I watched it...but I'm assuming it's referring to the end of the golden keys.

I agree Scoot. I also think someone is coming back.

I think they just meant the change from working in pairs to working as singles. It's not a "twist" as they were told about it (four golden keys etc.) when they started.

It is semantics....."change" "twist" "Shake Up The House" "Expect the Unexpected", etc. It will be something new, IMHO, because they all know about the end of duos and the end of golden keys and are playing accordingly. She said it will make them play differently. Strange to me was that Dani told Rachel last night that there is a new change coming. How does she know. Only the viewers were told last night.

I think it's just the change from duo to singles. And Dani knows it, she's already playing it (hence getting Dom to do her dirty work). She's been playing the single game since Dick left the house. Very under the radar and cozy with both veterans & newbies. Good social game right now.

I brought this up in last nite's show thread but the thread died. The fourth person to get the key won't get it until Thursday. Unless the key is meaningless, it should keep that person safe for a week. So the last key goes into pay on July 28th, but the game doesn't become a singles game until August 4th, when a new HOH wins who can nominate any of the ten, regardless of partners. So if Julie said a change happens next week it should be something other than the key/partners twist. (Why are there duplicate threads of this topic???)

The final golden key could give the holder one free week just under the new (single) voting rules. Pairs voting has to end, or there'll just be three pairs in play and the POV will determine everything - far too exciting for mid-game!

WHAT IF THE CHANGE IS THAT THEY STAY DOUBLES BUT ALL HAVE TO CHANGE PARTNERS? COULD THAT BE IT? THERE WOULD BE 10 (AN EVEN NUMBER) JUST THINKING OF TWISTS.

I think we have several things going on here: 1. Duos end 2. Gold Key ends 3. Possibility of a player coming back 4. Mystery Guest The first two things, the houseguests are aware of, needing no change in gameplay. The second two things they are in the dark about. So, I think the change that will cause the players to change up their game would be #3 or #4. Here is my speculation: After the eviction on Thurs., July 28th, there will only be 10 left. Julie said the people who had gold keys would be safe until final 10. So I would think that the game goes back to the original way of playing Thursday, the 28th. This would make 4th gold key meaningless, because of Dick quitting the game and messing up the schedule. Then, as singles, they play in the endurance comp. At least, this is what I'm hoping will happen. I'm sick of the duos!

Naja just posted in the live feed thread that the people from the new CBS show 'Same Name' will be surprising the houseguests this week. (Blech - cross promotion). That doesn't sound very 'game changing' to me, so it must be a player coming back. That's the only thing I can think of that would make them change their game strategy.

I am sure it will be nothing, we always have better ideas than production.

They "change" the game more than I change my underwear. "Change" is the new "same ole, lame ole" we got with hope and change. Whatabuncha. And why in name of all that is holy would they do a meaningless fourth key??? You'd think someone in production, anyone, could have come up with something besides giving Dani a monthlong free pass but hey, they've always catered to the Donatos.

I like the idea of them having to change new partners and next week when someone is voted out there will be 10 players left so they would have enough to pair up with someone else. Sure would throw the game in a totally different direction.

Maybe the 4 golden key holders will have to play something by themselves and their golden key will unlock a box or something and their old partner comes back, with 1 week of grace from going on the block?

Regarding my earlier post, any opinions on how Dani knew there would be a "game change" last night when she told Rachael in the Tarot Room????

Nyana that is cool idea, esp. if they know why they're playing. Except, who will Dani bring in if she wins?

archiecat, the DR staff said just enough for her to figure it out. Or they flat out told her when she said she was bored and wanted to leave "just hang in there, a change is coming" or something like that. JMO, no factual basis.

Archiecat Dani probably was told in the DR. Not the first time that it has come out one of them knew something before it was going on.

I like the idea of them having to change new partners so the vets will continue to have a huge advantage and the numbers? i've pretty well lost interest since i predicted jeff or Br R would win HOH this week. why are the producers even pretending that everyone had a chance? there is ONE bed in the hoh room, a newb team couldnt win. unless they slept together. i dont think that the golden key was part of the original plan and that is why they seem to be scrambling and changing it up. the POV being singles is an example.

It will never happen, but------ I wish all the retreads J&J, B&R, and D, all would suddenly have to leave and let the newbees play the rest of the season alone! Oh, and bring back the evictees.
