I will say poor Erika, she thought she had it and then lost it. I do have empathy.

If Danielle has won the Coup D'Etat and over throws Janelle's nominations are people going to accept that? Or, are they going to scream that Janelle is getting screwed too? OR if Janelle wins it how many are going to be screaming is it because the producers told her the answer in the DR? I thought it was a bit over the top when people were cancelling their feeds over Janie losing tonight but it is equally radical in my opinion to believe that the do-over of what was proven to be a flawed competition was done only to insure Janie the win. It is funny how a reality show can bring out some theories so out there from true reality.

Hey, i think that they should redo the Coup too! Cuz their mental states were affected by the faulty HOH, and Janie was feeling more bummed than Dani who felt safe so Dani had an unfair advantage to think more sharply. We need a Ewe Do Over!

We should all just be grateful it was just a lame BB competition. It's lucky BB isn't as popular as the Super Bowl or the World Cup. When screw-ups like this happens in games like that, there are riots, burned cars, and looting....and invariably some poor schmuck winds up dead. They had an HOH do-over. Janie won. Who cares? No one died and there aren't drunken mobs in the street breaking windows and looting businesses.

I feel bad for Erika too. She thought she had won it and had it taken back. Plus, she's at risk of going on the block and getting evicted. However you feel about the situation, you've got to feel bad for her.

I think the do over tonight was because of a loop in the contract that Will brought out. Will told Howie he could legally sue. I think BB understood this and redid the to HOH to make it fair. Notice the new comp had non electronic answers?

Raenstorm, don't try to confuse people with something like logic. There seems to be a lot of focus on Janelle being allowed to play although she went out on a missed question. The problem is that the integrity of the game was compromised when both Howie's and Boogie's lights were shown to not work...yet Howie was eliminated and Boogie wasn't. Had Boogie answered wrongly, he'd have been gone, and there's no way to know which answer he tried to give, so the results of that question (and therefore Janelle's elimination) had to be tossed as well. Too many doors were opened there for future lawsuits, so the whole comp had to be tossed and redone. I love how all last year the same complaints were leveled that BB slanted comps for Janelle. Of course the FS whined on and on in the house about it, but it went on in here and other sites too. Last time I checked, Janelle finished third and out of the money. Some conspiracy that turned out to be. Same thing this year. The comp had obvious faults, that were severe enough to affect the outcome of the comp on more than one instance. Thus, the only fair and responsible thing to do was to redo the comp. The HGs were talking about how many comps were redone in each season, and there have been plenty, but that this was the first HOH comp that was so fouled up that it had to be redone. Again, any HG who was evicted this week could have sued CBS after and said that this faulty comp screwed them out of a chance to win, not just Howie...anyone! Especially after they showed the tape to the HGs and they all saw how Boogie's lights didn't work either.

Oh and btw, why does Janelle get a bed in the HOH room while the rest of the house is still on cots? It doesn't seem very fair that last weeks HOH had a cot and this weeks doesn't. Hmmmm.

Gee.. maybe the competitions are not " fixed" so that Janelle wins.. She wins because she rocks.So silly to believe it is fixed that she wins all HOH and vetos. Lets see..she is a physical and mental threat.From the way the <MG> act.. breaking a nail or whatever would win it for her.. but these are actuall competions every one has a chance at. James also tanked on first comp. but had a chance to come back.. do I hear a conspericy theory about him.. mmm nope. Get over it <> she is just awesome and will continue to rule this game.

Well, with that reasoning (about cots), it doesn't seem fair that this week's HOH has to contend with the Coup d'Etat.

<MG> Spear, re: the cots. All I was saying is that the HOH shouldn't get a bed until the whole house does. That was the deal that was made. If the HG's get their beds back tomorrow, then so does the HOH.

Well hard to see it that way when most are complaining that its set up by BB to let Janelle win it and mostly complaining Janelle had a second chance and not many metions of others that also got a second chance that didnt deserve it. Basically they all had another chance.. Janelle just happened to win it.

Wendo - I'm thinking that maybe Janie got a bed becaues when they do the "hey guys - wanna see my HOH room?" and they do that whole 'ceremony', the TV show probably wanted to show a bed with it's new design.

Wendo, you have a great point. It was supposed to be the WHOLE house on cots. Also someone earlier said She thought she had won it Erika was announced the winner. This isnt like the questionable POV comp where Hgs still dont know what they've won. This was a clearly announced winner. ((i missed most of the excitement as the Cable server for this island blew LOL))

You all need to read the other thread regarding this matter. It might help in the understanding of why CBS legally had to redo this competition.

you need to be aware of all the messups and equip probs from other years to understand the issues involved in this matter.

Well I jsut watched the youtube of the Second comp. Does no one really find it questionable that three out of the four feeds were squarely on Janelle through the comp?? even when mike and jan are Final two Mike doesnt have ONE closeup. The producers/ cameramen knew who was going to win this comp. Otherwise they would have the comp and no footage of the winner other than a far away view.

Yes dear. The producers would like someone like Janelle to win as opposed to someone like Maggie winning again. Isn't that refreshing?
