At first I like the AP twist but now I have seen the light.Eric is <57> is there to do their bidding.The awful editing for Sundays show made me realize that if they can fool the viewers into hating certain HGs Eric will target who the producers want gone.

BINGO!

Why is Eric telling everyone that he was the first one up this morning? Is he supposed to be setting himself up as a target for the messing with people's stuff?

Jen's choice was a lame one when all the heat has been on Kail since Dick became HOH. At least say "kail", Jen was already "passe'", at least to me.


When the voting commenced for that AP task, all we saw was Dick win HOH. We didn't see anything else. So how would Jen be "already 'passe'"?

i think everyone, especially the tv audience, LOVED the sight of the JEN tshirt defaced by mustard!!

I laughed when I saw the screencaps in the thread. Jen looked none too happy.

"Eric is <57> is there to do their bidding."

Actually Eric is OUR <whatever> and he is there to do OUR bidding....hence the name "America's Player".

i totally do not like the vandalism task. why would anyone want to do that to another person's belongings? i am very disappointed in Big Brother for making it O.K. to do this when the toothbrush incident from another season was not.

The toothbrush incident was considered a health hazard... a little different than mustard on a shirt.

But Mustardgate won't cause Jen to stick a toilet tainted toothbrush into her mouth.

Agreed Mustardgate is not the same health concern as the toilet scrubbing the toothbrush, but similar in the respect of destruction of others property...

I haven't paid a cent to vote. You can vote for free at cbs.com.

Who are the majority of the votes coming from?
The TV viewers.
The TV viewers form their opionons of the HGs based on what? The show.

Who edits the show? The producers.

Eric and the viewers are doing the producers bidding.

I guess it's how you look at it. I have more fun going with the AP concept than staying mad at BB for the entire season.

It is what it is.

When/if Eric gets to the jury, we will be telling Eric who to vote for in the final 2.

We're sure you all are creative enough to use other more refined words to get your point across. Thank you.

How will it work if Eric gets to F2. Will BB tell the sequestered HG's after the vote?

Honestly, I don't like it when people mess with other people's stuff. I didn't like it on Survivor, I didn't like it on The Mole (although it was faked,) I didn't like it with Hardy's toothbrush, and I really don't like that TPTB made messing with someone's personal stuff one of his tasks. Wrong, just wrong, and tacky.

Let's say you were in the house and heard all of them saying "it wasn't me" and they seemed genuinely sincere, wouldn't you suspect Jen did it herself? I almost expected someone there saying... "maybe Jen did it on purpose, to stir things up..." ... well, it's a long shot, Jen is too indifferent to drama...
But if it had been Amber or even Daniele, attention grabbers, they surely would suspect it.. LOL
Eric must be itching to reveal himself...

Hypermom, by the time jury cast cast their votes, they will be out of sequester and in the stuudio for the LIVE finale. My hope is that Eric would be the last one to vote (hopefully a tie-breaking vote!)and they will tell everyone about AP just before he casts it.

And America votes for.....

Wow. It's just mustard on a shirt. I'm sure Eric had certain ground rules to follow. A harmless prank, and the funny thing is, Jen wasn't phased by it in the least! She will laugh when she finds out the real culprit: AmERICa.

If you don't like it, don't vote, don't watch.

I think BB will expose him before that. They always expose the twist when it's down to about 6-8 HGs left. Then everyone will hate him for keeping a secret and earning cash in the game, and he'll get voted out. Remember the twin twist? basically the same thing.

But what if BB early on tells the HGs that there is an America's Player, and doesn't say who it is? Then they'll all be suspicious of each other, and not know who it is. Especially if they're told that we tell the America's Player who to vote for. It might make Kail suspicious of her loosely-threaded alliance because they didn't vote with her on the Joe/Dick nom week.

I was at an art fair last week, and there was a hot dog vendor. I got a lemonade and was sitting down when a lady went to put mustard onto her hot dog. Apparently, there was a build up on the tip and instead of pouring down, the mustard sprayed out sideways. It sprayed all over the shirt of the guy next to her in line. He had a dark blue shirt. The guy was pissed because his shirt was ruined (mustard doesn't come out,) the woman was really upset and crying, her husband was upset because it wasn't her fault and she was "over apologizing." So, I think it's bad enough when someone violates someone else's stuff, but to deliberately put mustard on someone's clothing is just plain wrong. I'm glad Jen didn't freak out, because obviously that shirt is just for the show. It's the principal behind the idea and that CBS came up with it that bothers me. At the end of the day, it could have been a lot worse, but I'm pretty sure CBS usually instructs the HGs not to mess with each other's stuff. I can dislike this stunt but still watch the show, and no, I didn't vote for Eric to complete this task. It may have been AmERICa's choice whose stuff he messed with, but it was CBS who had the idea. I wish CBS would allow us to submit ideas and then have a poll of the top 10 ideas and give us a week to vote on them for a task for him to do the next week. That would be better than CBS and their lame ideas.

According to this site:
Ask a Scientist

NOPE -- most mustard stains do NOT come out unless it is a white shirt and you can use bleach on it.

I'm enjoying America's player, but I did NOT think this stunt was appropriate. Respecting other people includes respecting their stuff. CBS screwed up on this one big time.
