Yes they do Mark, but it's hard to hold that against someone when they know they have done some lying too. Lying is what makes this game happen. It's what keeps the fans coming back. The only one in that house who has done his level best to respond in a truthful way is Adam. He knows he may have to blatently lie at some point, but I think he would prefer to not do it. Every single person there has lied and knows that the others have lied too, but they have to take a chance and side with someone. The very best liar usually gets caught but not before they inflict some damage. Not to mention, everyone left in that house is on the jury. Now you will be seeing more and more arse kissing, because now they have to play for inside as well as outside. This is nothing new, it's the game.

I don't have a problem with people lying, but I think the perception is Shelly takes it too far to where she is lying for no good reason in a lot of cases and purposefully just trying to mess with people. Not to mention she is in a house with a bunch of people who are not big fans of subtle game play and hold a high value on winning competitions. I think the road is pretty tough for shelly. All the former HG from this season and from previous seasons I have heard talk about Shelly all say it is only a matter of time before she is gone and some of them are shocked she has lasted this long. You can see from Jeff how her behavior can bother people and she 100% supports Jeff and Jordan. Jeff does not trust her at all. If she can't get the people she has dedicated her game to, to trust her.. .It is unlikely anyone else will either, and at the end of the day you do need to be able to create some bonds of trust with other players.

Marks ... the only thing I can come up with is that she wants B/R to think B is safe...so she's maybe blindsided when he walks out the door. Otherwise, why would she be telling them that she thinks they have the votes, when obviously he's her target... well maybe not so obvious since all of us are sitting here scratching our heads ... LOL

That may be your perception and some other's perception, but she is still there and will be there on Friday, so obviously it's paying off for her. If she gets evicted she's still on the jury and has gone over half way in a game where she is outnumberd by vets. Not a bad position to be in as far as I'm concerned.

You guys got me wanting to flashback and get into this discussion, I look forward to watching the feeds in a few hours after I do a favor for a friend. I hope Dani isn't messing with B/R I'd love love love to see Brendon stay and win HOH and put up Porsche and Kalia!!

DH and I off to the city for a day in Chinatown to celebrate our birthdays. I love these kind of days, but not this time of year, it cuts into my BB time. I will do my best not to miss anything and expect that all of you, even if I don't agree with you post enough so I don't feel left out. Don't get in trouble..

Shelly has been playing what she would call her "Trojan horse" game. She goes to the other side with Little "gifts' of information from one side but brings back more info to the J/J side, her true alliance. Last night she said, no more playing Trojan horse. She said this to Jeff and Jordan and I don't think they understood what she meant. They don't understand what she is doing when she is "friendly" to the other side. In my opinion, J/J are very black and white and do not see any shades of gray when it comes to playing big brother. It is what makes it much harder for them to play this game well. It is why they get to insulted and why Jordan takes this game and the backstabbing so hard. She can not adjust very quickly. Dani, she accepts , analyzes and recalibrates. Even Rachel does that.

If because of some act of god Brendon does stay it'll be priceless the look on that hardened face of Shelly's when she realizes she wasn't picked to stay over Brendon and I think Adam will have to step up and perhaps we'll see a more sinister side of him. However this eviction goes it'll be a fun watch.

Shenanagon, it certainly would be fun to see the fallout if Brendon put up my least favorite players Kalia and Porsche. I'm not sure Porsche wouldn't go the Chima route or for sure some sort of nastiness would come out of her.

I think that Dani was blowing smoke. When the conversation ended between R and B and Dani the other night she said she would work on Porsche for them. She never intends to do that. I think Dani will say that to keep some peace, but she wants Brendon GONE.. that has not changed.

Shelly says she has dedicated her game to J/J but doesn't she have an F2 alliance with Adam? Adam told the camera/us that he must get Jeff and Dani out and then he will be the best player left. He does seem to have everything memorized but has only won when he absolutely needed to win (POV), not even winning the first time he was up with Dom and then being assured Dom was the target. If Shelly is voted out unanimously, will she still doggedly want J/J to win?

is adam delirious? how would he be the best player left? porsche and kalia have come closer to winning more things than he has. especially if it's true that jeff practically handed him the veto.

During a conversation on the live feed Dani mentioned that Dan Gheesling was married last month. Of course, I have googled my favorite player of all and found some pictures. I put a link on "outside the house" thread for anyone else interested.

I just realised why Dani told Brendon she thinks he is safe - she wants to cover her bases when it comes to a jury vote - she knows Brendon is 1st jury member and she is just working him - she has to make herself "look" like she is trying to save him - ha! Happy time again- glad to know Brendon is out the door and Rach wont have her man for awhile -

Adam seems to be waiting for all the stars to align and win the only thing he is the best at.....BB facts and figures.....at the right time. I guess that makes him the best player in his mind.

Adam told the camera/us that he must get Jeff and Dani out and then he will be the best player left. Does Adam know that he isnt good at endurance - lol seems to me Kalia and Por are way better at that than him

everyone always asks him what happened in other season if they have a question so to him that must mean he's the best player. he hasn't done a darn thing game wise.

Lostfan, I agree with you about Dani telling Brendon that. She is covering bases.
