Well, since Dick has been ahead in the polls almost all season and Zach is gone I'd be willing to bet there's a lot of happy people right now. Zach only inched up in this last week.

I liked Lex from Survivor, but don't like Dick. I certainly will cancel my feeds.

Since Zach is ahead in the polls righ now that shows me there are more people who truly respected his game. So if that's the case, no matter who was ahead last week or the 28 weeks prior, it shows the popular vote would not be happy in the final two.

Never ONCE heard of anybody grinning about a votebot FOR Zach. Guess it wasn't needed to play his OWN game.

I'm actually spending my time figuring out how to convert cassette audio tapes to MP3 recordings. It's taken a few days...finally got it to work. How does it sound? Like crap. But for those with large cassette collections out there, it can be done. Just thought I'd share.

Twiggish..I love, love, love Lex. He is Nothing like Dick. Lex is a thinker in real life, and would never use that kind of language on anyone, especially another competor. The only thing they have in common is tatoos.

"Since Zach is ahead in the polls righ now" Zach never got over 5% for all of the game til the last few weeks. His gain in popularity is gain of last resort. They never liked him at all for most of the game--but being the only choice of someone other then a Donato he looks like he is now popular. People are voting for him cause he isn't a Donato---not that his game was respected or that he was well liked as a player (by the viewer's perspective)

. How does it sound? Like crap. hey Nyheat, there are some programs out there which will clean the sound up. Cant remember one off of the top of my head though...but I know they exist as I was researching saving some of my old old 78s onto harddrive.

I think the polls started to rise once people saw that Zach was actually playing the game. Dick and Dani repeated so many times that he was stupid and didnt know what was going on, and the public believed it. Once Zach showed his plan and made his character obvious, the public loved it. A gamer! Finally! the underdog to root for

Hi Sun--too late on the clean up cassette recordings software. My computer vomited incessantly and blew out my audio jack. Now all it does is hum. Next stop, the Geek Squad. Never, ever will I attempt that again!!!

Zach's popularity started to rise when everyone else was evicted. When there was no one else to vote for. It also started to rise when he actually started to play the game. Coincidence? Maybe.

Dick and Dani were not the only houseguests to say Zach was wierd and didn't know what he was talking about. I remember every houseguest including Jen saying zach was wierd or something similar at one time or another. Where do you think the Panty muncher thing came from. Dick didn't make it up. Zach actually said it.

Zach was almost universally disliked by all the other houseguests in the beginning of the season. Dick eventually started to talk to him, as did Nick and Dani. But there was a long period there were people didn't like him, talked about him often, and wanted him out of the house. He's lucky that he, too, wasn't ever a focus of AP and that there were others in the house that people wanted out more.

I quit watching several episodes ago. I saw the manipulation was working and the Ds were going to be the final 2. I completely lost interest. In my opinion this has been the worst season ever. I just may have broke my BBUS addiction. I will continue to enjoy BBAus. But I am not so sure I will bother with BBUS next season if this is how Alison is going to manipulate it again.

Those of you who are watching or have watched BBAus and BBUK...how are you watching them? (assuming that you are in Northern America) Just curious. Thanks!

Lot's of ways....Just visit their threads before the seasons starts to get it explained. I would say between us all who watch, it's a combo of torrents, usenet and Mirc downloads, Youtube (and places similar to youtube), and live online streaming tv.

Call me lazy (well don't call me that but you know what I mean) but it seems like it's a lot of work to get these other shows. I wish there was an easier way to view them.

It only seems like a lot of effort at at first...Like setting up and learning to grab your first few eps. After that, grabbing an ep is like tying your shoes

Where do you get most of them Naja? From Usenet or torrents? Usenet I can deal with. Torrents makes me nervous from a security standpoint.

My first choice is usenet. It's fastest and always private. If it's not in usenet, then I try to find it in torrents.
