how soon they seem to forget! I guess they don't realize that it probably will not be one of them that wins HOH next week. Don't get me wrong I still love them & I am glad they are getting a second chance but why weren't lessons learned from last year?

I still love Janelle but I want Howie thrown the hell out. Could he be more annoying? He also ruins any chance for getting out key players by his Nakomis obsession. He always picks the wrong people to target and then manages to convince Kay and Janie of his stupid thoughts on the game. His sexual harrassment of Erika is wrong also. The only reason for him staying is he is backup and protection for Janie. I just can't stand him. The Sov6 could win HoH several more times and Will, Dani and even Boogie would still be safe thanks to Howie.

oh, and IMO, I think Howie and James are the only ones acting a bit cocky. And I can kind of understand Howie, because of last year, he probably just was accustomed to acting that way. His 'survival' attitude from last year is still in him. I mean if that's all you know... Kaysar has been very low key. And I think Janie has been very open and not acting like she owns the house or anything. If anything, I think the rest of the house has put Janie and Kaysar up on a pedastal by making them the huge targets (= threat).

Good post, Luvmykittens. I don't think this year will be as nasty as last year. I don't think the tension level is anything close to what it was with the FS, and I can't imagine it reaching that point -- although I think Diane, Boogie, and Howie have the potential to make it nasty. And I feel like I'm watching different feeds when people talk about the Sovs isolating themselves. I see the Sovs mingling a lot -- James buddies up to everyone, Janie has bonded with Marc in particular and also with Nak, Kaysar and Erika seem friendly, and Howie and Will have that strange friendship going on. The Sovs knew they came in with a huge target on their backs, and I think they've done a decent job so far ... I really expected 2 of them to be gone in the first 2 weeks, and I've gotta give them credit for not taking a hit yet.

Cousin Jake's right...the four from last year were an immediate target for the others when the game started. It's the easiest strategy to cull the herd in this manner, starting with the most recent players and gives the others a rallying point. The jackals began to circle and Janie was smart to get in the centre of the other three from last year.

I wanted Howie out before I saw him in the HoH room last night acting very serious while talking strategy and revealing how much insight he has gained about the other HGs. Yes, Howie's act is annoying, but last night he proved how tuned-in he is with the game this year. And I agree with Luvmykitties, the other HGs have put the BB6ers on a pedestal by making them the only target in the house. Much like last year, the Sovs have to play on the defensive and they haven't had the luxury to sit back for a couple of weeks to coast like several other HGs.

i still LOVE the s6! imo they are mingling just as much as the rest of the house is. if diane had won i bet boogie and will would be up in the hoh room, but not jase, as he is laying low (w/the mr & mrs smith thing) even if the s6 would not have entered into the house as an alliance the REST of the house put them together. give them a break.

I still want Janie to win it all, and still have some attachment to the whole BB6 group. Howie may be annoying as heck, but he is really in tune with what's going on in the house. Janie is not pulling it all together yet, but I have faith in her smarts. Kaysar appeared to have some things figured out, but his game play is worse than last year. He is annoying the bejeebers out of me and I don't care if he gets the boot or not. The BB6 group has multiple people gunning for them. They can't afford even one mistake. Unfortunately, the odds of that happening are probably nil. As long as Janie survives, I'll be happy. BTW, I really don't think it is good sportsmanship on this board to be putting people down for having the BB6 group on a pedestal. It's all in our own perceptions and we each have the right to like, love, worship, and hate whomever we want. Personally, I don't care who likes who I do and I base my decision on my own assessment of things. I am not swayed by the masses and even if 99% of the people here started saying that they no longer like Janie, I still do.

Who doesn't like Janie! Are you kidding me? (Just kidding - I've read the threads) I think she's playing as well as she can considering many of the others want her out. Her chances of making it to the end are slim, but I'm rootin for her all the way! I think Kaysar's also playing as well as he can. People are putting down his nominations, but you can only take out one player per week after all. He said in the HOH room last night that he didn't really want to win HOH last night but when it was just Nakomis and him left, he felt like he had to try as she'd likely put up Janelle and probably him.

I still LOVE the Sov6, especially Janelle. There's probably nothing Jan can do/say that would change my mind!

Still my big question is why can't the Sov6 recognize the key dangerous players and target them? If they keep this up they'll find themselves on the curb scratching their heads and wondering what went wrong. This reminds me of last year when they didn't get rid of Maggie when they could have. They just don't get it.

ummm... IMO Nak/Diane is a good choice to go up... will split up the otherside somewhat. Will/Boogie are easy targets, just takes one HOH , put them both up then one or the other will go....

In hind sight, when Maggie was up against Eric, they probably would have been better off to vote out Maggie. Eric probably would have imploded shortly after. However, Maggie hadn't really shown her full range of manipulative skills at that time so I can see why they gave Eric the boot. Also Myla, I think they see Diane and Nakomis as key dangerous players since they have an alliance with Jase and can win comps.

I don't like reading about how James wants to boot George out just because he's a bit annoyed by him, the Chicken Man is pretty harmless in terms of James staying power compared to 4-5 others. Hopefully Kaysar won't listen to him.

I am still a S6 fan, but I am frustrated by them at times. They know there is a target on them, but if they spent more time with the others (more than just Marc and Erika), they would have a clue that Kay's idea to forge a "fake alliance" with Chilltown (Boog/Will/Jase) is crazy. It will be CT forging a fake alliance with THEM. Also, it is harder to vote off someone you have forged a relationship with, regardless of alliances. The only way to forge those alliances is by sitting and talking and having fun with people. Not strategy talk or past season talk, but fun, personal talk. Like what Janie and Erika have done. I think Erika would have a tough time voting Janie out, and I doubt she would nominate her. By spending hours alone in the HOH room so soon after winning it, Kaysar and Janie made themselves seem even more aloof and gave the others time to build up even more determination to oust them. It seems like all the All Stars are acting similarly to the way they did in past seasons. All the other seasons had lots of large group hangouts. S6 had far more segregated time alone, especially toward the middle of the game. So, S6 is not as involved with everyone else while everyone else is bonding. Just my take on things.

But the Sov6 know the true colors of Will/Boogie and Dani. If they go down the tubes because they thought these three were known dangers and therefore less of a threat, they deserve what will happen to them.

From what I see of some of the strategy sessions, I am feeling like we're seeing the fact that the Friendship didn't win BB6, the Sov6 lost it. They seem like genuinely nice, likeable people. The problem is they just don't 'get' the game of BB, IMHO. All the others seem to get it -- the floaters should be your friends for the beginning of the game when you need numbers. Go for threats. But they're tilting at windmills and nominating their shadows looking for "drama" and "making people scared"... I seriously doubt a S6 person will win this year, either.

Hmm - are there really haters on S6 on this board? My feeling is that this is a very different year because most of us know everyone. It's hard to want one specific group to win, especially when its human nature to root for the underdog. I haven't noticed any friendship like commentary towards S6. I'm enjoying the show and getting to know the past hg's again. And I've yet to find who I really want to win. I love how strong Janie plays the game but after seeing Dani play last week she impresses me too. I also love Dr. Will just because of who he was. Marci is great...with his brilliant commentary!! It's like choosing between the Clap and Gonorrhea (sp??)

Well, the Sov6 (despite being an alliance of only 4) is playing the same game they did last season. But, with the exceptions of Jase and Dani, I think everyone is playing the same game they played earlier. And Dani's new strategy "bit her in the butt" as she said. I think it's too early in this game to have an overall strategy. Alliances change daily. I do agree with the posters who've talked about how the Sov6 were easy to root for last year b/c of the FS. This year, there are more people to cheer for. With the exceptions of Alison, Boogie and Diane, there is no one I really dislike (though I'd hate to see Marcellas win). And this year's group will play with their heads, not their hearts (or lack thereof!). I'm enjoying this season.

I don't think any of this season's players are hard to watch. The Friendship was hard to watch because they were just so negative and nasty ALL THE TIME. I don't find any of that this year so far and am enjoying the complex and intricate game thought processes that is going on. I'm enjoying this season quite a bit...even tho there are people in the house I didn't think I would enjoy watching...

I was depressed when Kaysar won HOH lastnight. I really wanted anyone but a Sov6 to win it. I liked Kaysar till he was voted back in and made such a stupid play with Jen. I don't think he deserves to be an AllStar. And I really didn't like the idea of 4 people from BB6 all being in the house. They were just in there last season. And they are the only season to spend time in this new house. I just wish that BB6 had not been an option for AllStars. I need a break from them.

Justin, I'm not sure I understand. If Kaysar nominates Di and Nak, I don't think that's bad. And if one gets taken off, not sure who they're talking about, but I'd put up Jase (or Boogie). They are known to be an alliance, and technically, the next with the most numbers. And Di and Nak were the only ones that voted for Ali - against the rest of the house. Sovs did befriend some of the floaters. Marci and Erica. Howie befriended CG ("you're all right Chicken George" LOL). Janie AND Kaysar befriended Erica. I think they may think Dani is kind of with them since they saved her. Will, Boogie, Jase, Di and Nak are not floaters. They have their alliance, and for the most part, joined forces to some extent for the numbers. And bottom line, most the house did flipflop and vote out Ali instead Dani - which is what Janie wanted. So how is that bad? I'd love for them to keep Will around until it's time for sequester - the one thing he DOESN'T want. I believe him about that. If you know you're not going to win, why sit around for weeks? They need to get rid of Boogie. Either way, I'm still a Sov6 fan - but mostly a Janie fan. I can't see changing on that. Even if she makes a stupid mistake and ends up getting sent home, she still has proven herself to be one of the toughest competitors and plays with integrity at the same time. For her to make it to final 3 last year was very impressive. GO JANIE! In any case, I'm enjoying things so far. Howie's been getting on my nerves, but he's a good person to keep as he's proven to be very loyal.

You forgot to mention Danielle. HELLO! Is anyone worried about her? Apparently not! Nobody hates the Sov6 that I know of. Howie is irratating me because I know he will cost Janelle the game again this year. They are hard to watch because they are giving the game away, yet again. I'm starting to think of them as the "box of rocks" instead of the Sov6. Come on Sov6- everybody strap on your thinking caps please!
