Yeah, it's a fan thing, I know the rumors are that CT sent it, don't see that being the case though. If they did it, it would be more like "Amber is a basket case" ... they were told to close their eyes, but of course I am sure none of them did at all.

In scanning through last night's posting I found this...didn't see where it was responded to, but again, I was only scanning! LOL Lynn Member 07-27-2005 Sunday, August 05, 2007 - 12:28 am C1, Eric can not go after HOH. He knows that we control his noms and would be afraid of what we might do. Actually, we only control one...so if he only got ONE of the Daniele and Dick Duo up, they would most likely be the ones gone.

After listening to Eric play Jessica last night I can't help but wonder where all the "taking advantage of the poor girl" crowd is. If any other male in that house was doing this to a female there would be endless conversations about what a cad he is. Just because Eric is AP is not an excuse. Either he plays his own game and screws up (which he did) or he plays for us (which he didn't) he is just as guilty for playing the girl as Nick, Boogie, Will, Roddy, etc. He is the AP, but he is also trying to win the big prize like every single male has since BB1, so to give him a free pass on his lies isn't quite fair IMO. Is he really a cad or is he playing the game? What makes taking advantage of a young girl who really seems to like you any different than what any other HG does to get farther in this game? I don't believe Eric is this way in real life, anymore than I think Dick is this way in real life.

Earthmother, not having the feeds, I didn't hear all that and only skimmed through the hundreds of postings from overnight. From the video clips I have seen of Eric and Jessica and what I have seen on the show, I think Eric really likes Jessica and isn't playing her. Just my opinion from what I have seen!

Eric appears to have a genuine frienship like for Jess not a love interest (at least that is what I oerceive from Showtime, CBS and my own limited livefedd viewing)

It doesn't matter if he truly has feelings for her, he is playing her for a vote. It's game I have no problem with it, just that if he were not AP he would be burning in hell on this board right now. The hour Showtime conversation with the two of them last night was very telling. She doubts him and he took those doubts away, not by blaming others by appealing to her heart. I for one think alls fair in a game of lies and deceit, but to many on these boards it isn't.

I noticed that a couple of days ago, EM. And also noticed that Dustin was getting a free pass (at least, it seems, until last night). I have my theories but now is not the time and place.

Is it possible D/D are aiming for Dustin but making everyone think it's Eric?

The only time I have disagreed with anyone being played was last year and it was the way Boogie (my fingers always seem to want to type a B instead of the G in Boogie's name LOL) talked soooooooo nasty about Erica in the Diary Room.

It doesn't seem to me like anyone is getting a free pass on the boards... everyone has their perspective and their faves. It always seems to me as though Eric is getting trashed. I don't think there is one, monolithic opinion out here.

Heck yea Eric is playing Jess! He constantly tells her he didn't cast the "hinky" vote and he feeds her a complete line of BS about most everything. I hope he goes this week. When Jess was talking to Jen I thought she had seen the light. Was Jess totally sucked back into the Dustin/Eric thing last night or is she laying low and undecided? She looked so uncomfortable when she was hanging out with D/E/J/A. That's what confuses me. Does she care if Eric's playing her? Would she rather be played than be on the D/D side of the fence?

Did Eric do any campaining for noms after America's voting Thursday night? Seems like I've been watching the feeds forever since then but don't recall him campaining to Dani prior to the noms of Jen/Kail. From reading all the boards seemed like there was a good chance Amber would have been America's nom choice.

Citadelle, I am a big Eric fan, but I don't think the majority of the posters are trashing him so much as they are trashing the America's Player twist. I see this happening for TWO reasons: One...they don't like the fact that if being America's Player and the vote America made will hurt his game, then he doesn't go along with America. Two...they feel BB already has enough of a hand in manipulating the house and they see this as another manipulation...nevermind the fact that for years posters have been complaining that they don't have any say in the house, now that they do, they still aren't happy! Go figure! I never saw the first two seasons where America had say, so it never mattered one way or the other to me. Personally, I like the twist, but then at the moment I can't think of a twist that BB has done that I didn't like. I can think of people within the twists that I didn't like, but that is another story! LOL

Doesn't Jameka have to wear the bunny suit like the others? Or was that another choice in POV

That's what confuses me. Does she care if Eric's playing her? Would she rather be played than be on the D/D side of the fence? The question is, are you really being played if you know you are being played? Maybe is she is storing it all up, until she really needs it. Kind of a pick your battle thing.

Exactly Biloxibelle, my point exactly. Let's forget about the AP thing for a minute and just have the male and female playing the same game for the same prize. In the past and just as recently as Nick/Dani, there have been so many who assume the player is the male and the played is the female. Demonizing some male players for "taking advantage of the poor little female" has become the norm. I have never been sure in the past who was really getting played, except Diane/Drew and Erika/Boogie..I think those two women fell for it hook line and sinker. I just thought that everything he was telling her was suspect to get her vote, but I truly believe he likes her as a person. My point was that for years I have been watching the demonization of men and I don't think that has been fair, but in this case little or no demonization of Eric.

Caprica, you've said this in about 10 threads now. Why do they have an unfair advantage? Joe/Dustin and Carol/Jessica also had the same "unfair advantage." Just because the other two (Carol and Joe) were evicted right away doesn't mean anything.
