I'm sure Dustin's ex-lovers didn't sign waivers, so I don't understand why he is being allowed to pontificate on the various sizes and giving/receiving styles.

WoW Bonbon...come sit next to me..usually I feel so lonely here lol! And Tres hun, keep in mind if I'm right Eric was hired to go in the BB house to do this. So he likely is getting a salary, the bonuses from completed tasks and any more money he can get. This is why I feel so strongly that it's his job, because it would be so grossly unfair to someone who just came to play the game, and I think there would be too big a risk they would refuse to do it. Although he's getting kinda close to that now IMHO, so who knows maybe I'm wrong. If so then BB did it totally wrong IMHO. But if I'm right, then Eric is just doing his job. Either way, he agreed to it!

Amber is much smarter than I give her credit for. She knows exactly what Dick and Danielle are doing to her and the buttons they are trying to push.

Here's what I could find on LF's from last night/early AM. I can't find the part about Devil's advocate. 08/01/07 02:15 AM "Eric and Jess trash Dick, Eric says he's feeling his anger rising(I missed some from feeds, but apparently Eric is tired of Dick's own personal agenda, and reiterates to Jessica that Nick must go this week. He plans to coerce Zach into voting "with the house.") We'll see what happens in the meeting tonight..well, I might see or I might fall asleep. Will Eric be upset with BB getting after him today and maybe be more vocal in the meeting, or will he lay low.

Lurk, if Eric was hired at a significant salary to play this role, I'd feel better about his situation. But you are right in saying he agreed to it. I'll just have to hope for the best outcome for him.

We are out of synch Tres...to reply to 'Maybe at the root of my discontent is the fact that people care more about booting Kail because they dislike her than they do about what is good for Eric in the game" I didn't base my vote on either point. I genuinely believe the game will be more interesting in how it is played out if Nick stays and Kail goes. If that happens then there is a good chance the LNC will implode, we might finally see some alliance talk, and no matter what the game would shift. If Kail stays I see some of the folks I don't enjoy using Kail/Jen to do their dirty work, get rid of who they don't want to publicly do, and kiss and cry their way through the game. No more alliances, no interesting BB, just picking people off like we've had so far. I have been bored by it, and see it remaining that way unless the LNC implodes soon. To me the best shot of that happening is for Kail to go. So I voted based on what I think will make the most interesting BB for the rest of the season. Didn't vote for or against Kail or Eric!

C1mag stated: People may have used his brothers thread to point that out to him and I'll say this that Erics brother is very cool in taking all comments about his brother good and bad. He's very respectful. I wish he would post here. I like reading his posts as well and there was someone posting there last week that had a very nice discussion with him. They got along very well.

If he gets evicted, there's no more AP to play for us. This is true, but what is the point in keeping him around if he is not playing for us... I guess it is a catch-22

The way I understand Eric's position is, he is a player like all the others in the house EXCEPT he has the opportunity to earn more cash by completing tasks that are assigned to him. I don't see how that translates to he is America's lackey and must do everything he's told, irregardless of how it impacts his game. He's trying to do the tasks while maintaining himself in the house at the same time, not an easy task I would think! I think Tresbien made a lot of sense, if he completes a task that gets him booted out of the house, then what do we do? We don't get to play anymore. It's stupid to vote him to do things that kill his game. This is how I see it anyway.

What would have happened if he had declined would he have been allowed to play knowing that there was a mole in the house who did accept the challenge?

I didn't know Dustin thought Dick stole his thunder this week. Dustin keeps saying it was a strong week.

Where are we getting the idea that he is getting paid a salary to do AP?! They showed him in the Diary Room in the first show where he has obviously just found out he is going to be AP, and he's pretty jazzed about it.

Depends on how you look at it Bonbon, he cannot play for everyone, even if he did exactly what the vote said, it would not be for those who voted the other way. This week, Eric is doing exactly what I would want him to do, so therefore he is working for me. I do understand your point, but again, there must be a balance. It is possible more people voted for the other 11 houseguests to get the prank, but because jen got the most, she got the prank, so...in he is not always doing what everyone wants. It is not a perfect twist for sure, has it kinks, but making him blindly follow everything said would mean there was no point as he would be caught so early.

I doubt it, Pinnie. That's what many of us are trying to say. He had the opportunity to play the game as the AP or go home. I voted how Eric asked me vote, as he's in the house and I want the best moves for him. If he does well; we do well.

I'm glad to hear that Lurk, but I think anyone who has read the boards would see how much Kail is disliked, and that has been the motivation for their votes. As far as Nick goes, he has been playing Daniele not the BB game recently. I think it's a leap to think he'd do anything differently in the future. Not sure it would be the shakeup you seek.
