Well, Cricket, you know we Americans with a vote in our hand are capable of goofing up a lot of things. LOL Thanks for the kudos!

Klaw Erics biggest disadvantage in being the AP is that people watching will vote emotionally. They will not think about his game so he has to be one step ahead of those emotional votes if he wants to remain in the game.

From reading the boards it appeared to me that the voting was less about what people want for Eric's game and more about disliking Kail and wanting to keep hottie Nick. I think Eric's doing very well in a situation that can be both a benefit and a hindrance depending on the mood of America.

That's a good point, Klaw. A lot of people can only go by what they see on the show which doesn't always give a clear picture of how things are really going in that house.

Cricket I am wondering the same as well. Why is it assumed this is a Kail eviction for Eric?

C1 ... I really don't have any favorites...I just don't like the whole AP thing because i think it has inherent problems. Hence the discussion...

Eric has said he can't see himself making it to the end in conversations C1Mag, and I agree that he can't. When he has to pull pranks on house guests and vote against the house, he can only push his luck so far to have someone to blame his actions on. The smaller the group, the harder that is going to be.

Yes, I looked that up, Zachsmom, and Michelle Maradie was 19 on season four.

Yep, C1, I think the emotional voting is a hindrance to Eric.

The only thing I can say for sure is that Eric was not trying to send Kail packing. In fact, he told Jess and Jameka that Nick MUST go home this week. He did make two suspicious comments: 1) he said the producers never grant his wishes; and 2) he want to try to get Zach to vote their way to ensure the house is not split (IMO, that can be intepreted in different ways). Oh and he was having a pretty detailed conversation with Jessica. They are both sick of Dick and want him out of the house. :-)

I think the stupid pranks have no business even being something America votes on. That's asking him to sabotage his chances. And it will get harder to cover those things.

Let's not forget that Nick being on the block is probably a direct result of last weeks AP vote. If Eric had voted the way he wanted - Mike then there would not have been the extra Kail vote that turned into Nicks final straw (via Amber).

Those who are Dick fans want Kail out and those that aren't want Nick out. I completely see that. Btw, I know how much you wanted Kail to leave and I am impressed that you went the other direction .

Gon don't you think it is wise for a player not to brag that they are going to win the whole thing? He knows he's got an equal shot but he also knows he's got something on his back that no one else has. If he can work around that and structure a game that gets him to the end what an impressive player.

I absolutely disagree with this. First of all, it's a broad generalization. Secondly, some people will vote for their favorites, some will vote for the ones they dislike. Some will vote just to mess things up. Some will vote against what they think everyone else wants. ZM is right, too. Daniele did not apply to be on THIS version of BB. She had already applied, and they pulled her outta the pile of wannabes.

Klaw you have no idea how much I'd love to see Kail out of there but since I don't get a dime of that money I'm not going to vote to wreck a guys game and force him to keep a person that will target him while the other wouldn't target him. I will have plenty of chances to vote out Kail and get her out of there without screwing up someones game simply because I don't like another player.

I'm a Dick fan. I want Nick out. I voted to evict Nick, even before I saw what Eric wanted. (Which, btw, was pretty cheesy of BB... to let Eric tell us what he wanted. Isn't AP supposed to be what WE want?)

I voted the same way, C1...but I would like to note that I also voted for Nick to be nominated this week...LOL. Kail gets on my nerves too, but it's hard to view her as a threat.

Zachsmom, I did a search for the season 6 eligibility requirements but couldn't find them. In any case, Daniele does not meet this year's requirements according to current rules.

lol, Costa...I read your posts about being a brat and voting the opposite way . I will correct my statement to say some of those that are Dick fans wanted Kail out and some of those who are not wanted Nick out...hehehe.
