This year everyone of the players should have known who they were up against. They've all known who played each season and what they were like. When word came they might be chosen this time, if they didn't know each HG's character, they should have brushed up. I also do not think you can give a bye for pure evilness and call it gameplay. There's a huge differance.

The only people in that house who aren't floaters are Howie and George. Howie by choice and George because nobody ever made him an offer. I think some people confuse floaters with those who ride coattails. There's a huge difference.

The rest of them have been floating, and all of them have pretended to be friendly to people only to move against them when the time called for it.That's the only way to stay alive in this competition.

Those in the house who initially complained that everyone should have to take a side were just being lazy. They didn't want to have to use their brains to figure out what was going on around them. They wanted everyone to carry a sign saying "friend" or "enemy." What's silly is that this is an individual competition, and everyone is an opponent. The war mentality will just get you tossed out, while the more fluid players keep going.

The enemy? You mean to tell me these people didn't know what kind of people Ali, Jase, Boogie and Dani were from Day 1 and even before? Do they need a play book? Come on.

It all depends how much people feel that it is a game or real life. I tend to think it is a game and quite a few of the participants feel that way as well, given how they are able to put their game differences aside and continue to form relationships afterward outside of the house (e.g. Beau and Janelle).

Yes, that proves that these people are much like they are on the outside. In the case of the LOD, that's more than frightening.

Good vs. evil? So...who's supposed to be so good on this show? Who's supposed to be bad?

And ...floaters are bad, but no one agrees what a floater is. We should relax, it's all a game, remember?

Watching tonight's show it hit me how much the 3 women left look more like actresses than the people around me in the real world. Most of the HGs are showbiz wannabes or don't have real careers going for them. And they put down others they call floaters? Guess I'm just getting tired of hearing that the people I'm rooting for on a TV Show are evil, as opposed to the other wannabes that someone has decided are good.

All is fair on Big Brother and those who don't like backstabbing and lying should watch MLB or NFL instead.

Okay. What kind of people are they, Bluefield? How are they any different from the oh-so-righteous Janelle and Howie? Isn't Janelle continually trying to cozy up to Will so she can use him and Boogie for her cause? Didn't she say horrible things about George and then tell James they needed to be nice to him because they might need to use him later? They are all playing this way. All of them. There are no saints in that house, just people you personally like more than others.

As to your question, apparently Janelle & Co. did need a playbook, because they've clearly shown they believed Diane was their big threat and everyone else would go after Chilltown. When they couldn't be 100% sure, they'd get frustrated and start talking about forcing the floaters to pick a side. If they knew what side everyone was on from the get-go they wouldn't have kept making this statement.

If you can't see the differance then it truly is beating a dead horse. I'll give you a hint. The vile ones sit around imagining how Janelle pays her rent and calling her dirty names. All the time. Last year it was the Friendship. Who were they saying was doing favors for the workman behind the walls or in the Dr? Janelle. You do the math. Is Janelle perfect? Of course not but she doesn't sit around 24/7 trashing her foes like they do her. This is relentless bashing this year too. Read the feeds. I'm pretty sure you get it. You don't need any more pictures drawn.

gee how did I just know that would be said. Lets see was how Howie talked about the girls in his season and went <MG> on them and even talked about Aprils Husband? Okay? His group thought that was funny and egged him on to do it.

There are no good people versus bad people in this house. There are competitors in this house.

I could make a case for each one individually -- or any group of two or more -- to be good people and the rest bad. I could also make the same case for each one -- or any group of two or more -- being bad people and the rest good.

It is a shame we need to label people with value-laden labels. Why can't we just say "I like this person/group because...." and/or "I don't like this person/group because...."

Our reasons will be part our opinion of them based on what we know about them as people and part of our opinion of them in their game playing.

But to claim some are good and some are bad strikes me as awfully judgmental about a group of people we no little about (except they are all a bit strange! )
