Jameka vows that she did not put the blue ball in the tube...you know, the one that disqualified her in POV...she thinks it bounced in there. Does anyone know?

Have the feeds been out since before the show? I wonder why? Is it possible they are reviewing/redoing the challenges?

I bet that it bounced in there. Once again a feeble comp that goes wrong. They didn't bother to really test it out. I bet no one even considered that a ball could bounce in there. Had she WON and then been disqualified and then the tape shows that it bounced in there they would have to do it over again to be fair. I'm sure we will see what happened on the next show. But what happened didn't have any effect on the outcome. I love it when shit goes wrong on live TV.

But it might have made a difference. She stopped to plead her case, and was definitely preoccupied with it from that point on. I think it was a poorly designed POV on the producers' part.

I bet it just bounced in...those things could have easily bounced in, those stations were relatively close to where the balls were coming out of.

Yes. Poorly designed POV. They should have just flipped coins.

Yankee she didn't stop, she kept going while pleading her case. The girl has heart.

Poorly designed for sure and I do agree with Yankee... she DID stop for a second telling BB, Julie and anyone who would listen that she didn't do it. She could have won the POV, used it, Zach goes up... she votes Zach out.. totally changes the "outcome" of the game!

If she SAYS she didn't do it and the tape shows that she DID do it does that make her a liar?

of course... the deal she made probably said if she won POV she wouldn't use it (with a guarantee that she wouldn't be voted out... since they all 'had a feeling' that this was a double eviction week and all)

So, she was disqualified before the end of the competition. And, it was an accident? That's not right.

Archie it doesn't seem like she was really disqualified because she kept going & Julie didn't make her stop.

There is a photo on realitybbq.com, showing dick with a blue ball in his hand. Now there are conspiracy theories that he sabotaged Jameka. I don't know why he'd have that ball in his hand, but I didn't see him putting anything into Jameka's tube anyway.

Oh for goodness sakes, it sounds like a witch hunt. Irregardless, she kept going & still lost.

Watching the tapes Dick did have the blue ball in his hand for a bit. Why wouldn't he just drop it right away? That said, I can't see him cheating as he knows it is all taped! It had to have just bounced in there by accident.

Dick picked up something and put it in his pocket, I wasnt sure what it was, but after the comp, he took something out and was looking at it and said something was missing and he called to Diary room about something being out back

They were playing for HOH during the blackout. Zach is HOH. I'm quite sure they have it on tape and will show it to Jameka. The only thing I saw was Dick suddenly looking down and then picking up his broken necklace and putting it in his pocket. Then inside he realized part of the necklace was probably still outside. A bounce that would go into that container seems unlikely and the balls came out at angles, but again, they have lots of cameras so it can be reviewed and I'm sure it was. Tobor, what leads you to believe they didn't do a test run? I would think they set it up and tested it during the lockdown earlier today. The really poor design to me is that the green and blue balls were so close in color. I'm guessing that was by design to make it harder to find those green balls? Tobor.. I'd say it wouldn't make her a liar. I'm sure IF she grabbed a blue ball and thought it was green and stuffed it in there in her mind she really did not put in a blue ball. It would be like all of the HG who took a finger off something or one hand and were really convinced that they didn't. Or the foot that moved but the person is completely convinced it didn't move.

She DID stop momentarily - I watched the veto comp 3 times believe it or not (once on ET, once on PT and once recorded when my DH got home from soccer). She stopped looked up and said "I didn't put that in there," then went forward but the entire time she went forward you could hear her pleading to Julie that she didn't do it and to watch the tapes. So she was preoccupied from that point forward with pleading her case while looking for the green ball. You can say that it didn't affect the outcome, and I'm not saying I know she didn't put it in there herself, but I'm saying if she didn't, Julie telling her she was disqualified could/might have affected the outcome.

She may have kept going, but she was totally thrown off her game as she was pleading her case. You could hear the frustration in her voice. Who wouldn't have been distracted and thrown off?
