Well Jeff has a choice here- he could BD Dani, but he'd lose her vote for sure for breaking their "deal"- and he has to make sure he has the votes to get her out. If he stands pat, I think Porsche probably goes over Kalia, but either way it's a net win for J/J.

It's a matter of semantics.

It has changed since Marvin told Nakomis and she implemented it.

Why go through calling it something else?

If Jeff wanted, he could have put Dani on the hot seat.

Instead, he waited to see if she would win the veto....why make her angry ahead of time.

Why isn't anyone running over scenarios of a possible FF week? They will all be caught off guard on Thursday.

Because the HG's think it's going to happen a week later.

Adam who is up on his facts about previous seasons, mentioned the week after this so they all fell in line.

They may discuss it more after Mondays veto meeting but the veto meeting is all that's on their mind right now.

Dani has it right. She said last Wednesday, one more HOH then fast forward.

I'm glad Jeff didn't let the DR sway his decision. Dani was going to get him out next, so he had to do it first.

Dani had the luck of the drawer in the beginning. All she had to do was lay low but she chose to push too hard too fast. With that, she lost Dominic, who by the ways loves Jeff. She could have talked Kalia out of putting up Lawon. If they had gotten Rachel out, they could have aligned with JJ. She chose to evict Brendon, thinking he was the biggest competitor.

Won't be too surprised if AG pulls some crap to save Dani. She's just as snarky as the rest of them, but she is more subtle, in an under her breath behind the back kind of way.

I just had an ah ha moment.

Adam is playing the smartest game.

He is playing under the radar...

He is staying away from any confrontations/conflicts with anyone...

He is socializing with everyone and everyone likes him...

He's no one's target...

He has a good alliance with JJ&S...

He has a separate secret alliance with a girl just for extra protection...

Adam is sitting in a good position.

And I read that Jeff and Jordan think he might be about to turn on him so he might not be so safe! :-)

I just saw that Scooter, I can't believe Porche is running her mouth. What if Dani stays, now her secret is out. LOL

Why are JJ getting suspicious of him?

I don't have feeds so I really don't know...I only read that Jeff told Jordan (I think) that Adam may be getting ready to turn on them.

Jbw posted this in the LFD thread,
concerning tide-turning timing and alliance-positioning :


This IS the time to flip. Adam and Shelly are #4 and #5 in their present alliance. J/J won't turn on Rachel right now as they need her to win comps to save them from nomination and Rachel's another big target in case the other side wins HOH. No one is going to target A or S when D/J/J and R are still in the game.

Shelly should know or be told that she'd be gone right now if Jeff could have gotten Adam to vote to save Brendon. Adam should realize that if Dani had won the POV and taken Kalia or Porsche off the block, HE would have been Jeff's replacement nominee since J/J couldn't trust either Rachel or Shelly to not take the opportunity to get each other out if they were on the block. The best you can ever hope to move up to in the J/J alliance is #3. J/J would never vote each other out or take you to F2 if you make the F3 with them.

Going into Thursday's HOH comp, it's better to be #3 & #4 in the Dani alliance than #4 & #5 in the J/J/R alliance especially with Jeff unable to play in the HOH. If they switch sides now, the next HOH contest will be 4 vs. 2 since Jeff can't play. I'd rather be playing on the side of Dani and Porsche in the Veto comp than playing with Rachel and Jordan. Those are better odds to make F6 or better than being a J/J puppet.

I wonder about this latest plotting by Shelly. So far discussion here and presumably with Adam-Shelly-porche is about keeping Dani.

But what if Shelly has no intention of keeping Dani, and her sole purpose is to get Adam muddied up in the game?

A real theme so far this season has been Shelly's bedazzled J/J alliance. She seems to want a J/J/S F3. Maybe she really believes she can beat them at F3 and force herself into F2, and thinks people will want to award a newbie over a vet. If that still holds, then getting Dani out is still a priority for her.

And therefore she really has no intention of keeping Dani. What she's really up to is closing off J/J's options with alliance members...getting herself to that F3 spot in the alliance ahead of Adam (and Rachel).

Shelly is becoming more and more of a mystery to me... she behaves as the "movers and shakers" of BB, she managed to keep Rachel by wanting to get rid of Porsche but she got credit for eliminating Lawon.
Then it seemed she wanted to flip the house and keep Daniele only to go first to JJ and promise them her alliance to F3. What does she really want to do, she is not winning any comps so far and yet much of what happened in the house is of her doing.
It will be interesting to see what she will do on Thursday with the double eviction, it's about time she will have to either win or show her hand if Jeff is on the block with Jordan.

Adam has no intention of keeping JJ together and believe me he will play for HOH on Thursday,

Thursdays DE allows him to get to final 6 and if he could get Jeff out he will...if not... then Rachel.

If he has to use Porsche, Kelia or Shelly to do so he will.

Dani still didn't learn from her last season.

Dani isolates herself in bedrooms...HOH when its her or a buddy.. and her bed when she isn't...She doesn't spend time playing the social game because she felt she could win all the time one or the other.

Shelly will get caught in a web because Adam is filing this in his head for future discussion if he needs it...Adam knows with this information he could use it against Shelly if he and Shelly are final 2...With Porsche the same and knows nobody in jury would vote for Kalia.

If Adam gets to the final and that depends on Jordan because she's somewhat on to him....Adam against any of the newbies including Shelly wins.

Adam against Rachel is iffy if Rachel makes moves the rest of the game.

I thought Jeff wouldn't be able to play for HOH on the double eviction, if he survives then he'll play for HOH right afterwards.

Adam will certainly keep his info on Shelly's intentions to keep Dani for later, I was a bit surprised when he didn't run to JJ and told them about Shelly's trying to flip the vote. Either Adam is more with Shelly than with JJ or he is a smart player and keeps things to himself until the right moment. He's not a blabber...

Jeff can't in the first one and that's what Adam is counting on.

Jeff cant play in the next HOH but he can't make a move against Jeff until he sees who wins the next HOH...Thats why Adam will vote to evict Dani.

Shelly has a lot of skills in this game but it seems her downfall is that she is never satisfied with her current position, however strong it may be. The grass is always greener sort of attitude. She just can't resist tinkering and switching things up.

I think Adam's playing a smart game, but Shelly...she's doing herself in with all tattle-tailing. At this rate she's going to be Jeff's next target
