Doublethink, Eric and the others would vote Kail out if Kail and Jen stayed on the block. Dustin would have to make a choice to give Kail up. They know Jen will help them get Dick out and Kail can't even go for POV, so she's no help. Jen needs to start making deals and make a deal with Eric.

Also, they want to show Kail that Dani isn't a person of her word. She keeps telling Kail she's safe and they are upset with her for that. Right after Dani told Kail that the first time, she told the whole group she'd have no problem breaking her word. I think Dani went down a LOT in Jameka's eyes after that. Jameka is done with both of them.

If, for some reason Jen goes, she's ready because of the retainer and losing money.

I feel bad for Eric. He was playing just fine for the first few weeks. Then, a bunch of TV only watchers decide how he should vote and it isn't in his best interests but he is stuck. He wanted to fly under the radar for a few more weeks but found he couldn't. I think he was panicked the first time when he voted for Kail over Mike.

Then the second week, he sees that for himself,getting Nick out of the house is the best thing. He did jump the gun by campaigning before he found out what "America" wanted but he keeps forgetting that the majority of the people who vote don't watch the feeds or visit boards. He may have mistakenly assumed that the viewers were seeing who it was best for him to eliminate, not who the viewers didn't like.

When he had to vote against the majority for the second week in a row, he knew he was in trouble and he has again panicked. It would be nice if we could also vote for "Eric's Choice" as one of the options.

The voters have screwed up the type of game he wanted to play. YMMV

Eric is not a dirty player. D/D are much sneaker and underhanded than Eric.

The thing that keeps going through my head about Eric is the way he acts in diary room. He said he wants to be the alfa male in the house and flirt and be the playboy so Nick had to go.
Sorry but this made me laugh a little but now it is just sad.

But if I were her I'd be afraid not to use the POV just because you'd get the "How could you pull a Marcellas" thing everywhere you went if you were booted. And besides, it would give ED too much satisfaction to see it happen.

I think they are letting them sleep in since some of them got almost no sleep over the weekend due to the once an hour slop thing.

EM, I know where you are coming from too, but I don't understand why Eric alone is taking the heat. It was Dustin and Amber's idea to backdoor Nick the first place and it was Dustin who nominated him. Eric gave all the reasons why Kail should be evicted the night before and not one person, including Dani and Dick, jumped on the chance to flip the votes. They just sat there. The decision was made before they even had the meeting, IMO, and that was that. Also, Nick made no effort to save himself, so it just doesn't make sense why Eric is getting all the blame.

IMO, who ever sent the banner was also mad at the LNC as a group for backdooring Nick hence the Nerd Herd. Although Dick has already acknowledged that it was a mistake, I wish someone would point out that the comment included him too.

If Jen does not use the veto I hope America continues to vote out Kail.

Good point, Caprica. It would be horrible if Eric makes a deal with Jen and then is forced to vote her out, but in reading some posts here and other boards, it appears some will gleefully have him do that.

Cricket -oooh I am so thick - thanks. I was thinking Jen would use it on Kail - but she definitely didn't say that. Ok thanks for waking me up - duh.

And you're right - that could definitely help her out. I wonder if she gets the game enough to understand that. But then she would also be betraying Kail, and I'm not sure her moral compass would let her do that.

Ohh, Doublethick..no..she CAN'T use it on Kail, lol. I see where you were coming from. Everyone will say it's dumb move because of Marcellus, but in this case it might be brilliant comeback for Jen. I wish she would talk to Eric and Jess about it. I think Zach may even be persuaded to vote Kail out over Jen if he knows the rest of the house is.

Jen is using the veto. If she doesn't, Chill Town will disown her for doing a Marcellas. CT couldn't stand Marcellas so that's why Jen will be using the veto.

I personally do not see any reason why Jen should use the veto on Kail or make any effort to save her. As Dani pointed out last night, Kail jumped off the bar knowing that it was Dani's intention to backdoor Jen. JMO.

Doublethink, it sounds like she's not feeling well mentally and physcially, so I'm not sure if she realizes it could help her. The best part is Kail would be gone. I feel she isn't the best person in the house for Jen right now in a bungling sort of way.

If you think about it, the DR should try to get Jen to see the wisdom of not using it, lol, to try and help bail Eric out of this mess the banner made.

If Jen said this to Kail, all it will take is for Kail to tell Dustin and he might see the advantage of it. I sure wish Jen would tell Jess and/or Eric that Dustin is the one working with Kail, not Eric.

Geri, I actually think all of America's votes have been good ones up until he blew off the Nick one. I think America genuinely had his back, even though we didn't have to, until he did the opposite of what we wanted.

And I still say that even though he felt he needed to get Nick out, we can see more, and the overall game would have been FAR better/more interesting IMHO had Nick stayed. Also, Eric wouldn't be in any trouble in the house had he done this. So I can't see how folks are up in arms about us betraying him, when not only is it vice versa, but how he wouldn't be in any trouble now had he followed our votes!

I just don't get it at all!

Jen still will probably use the veto...I think she's angry at the stuff going on in the house, is on slop for a month (but she's said she preferes if because otherwise she tends to eat when she's emotional), got almost no sleep the last few days, and it's likely if she does veto herself off that she'll lose the only person who tends to like her (Jam and a couple of others are neutral I think)...it's just her frustration talking..

Chere - at this point I'm sure if in fact Jen did get tips from ChillTown, she knows they threw her under the bus and, Jen could now care less about their opinion. If her actions of the first two weeks were because of ChillTown, they did nothing but alienate her from the rest of the house.

Jen should not trust anyone else but herself to save her, IMO. There are too many days before eviction for people to change their minds.

If the DR butts in, which I hate, it should be to get Dani to see that putting up Dustin would be a stronger move at this point.

Aren't there at least 3 threads on this board devoted to AP? Why is the current happenings thread another one? Some of us Canadians don't care about AP and would like to know what is actually happening in the house currently.

And one more thing...I don't get why folks are saying D/D played Jen. They got her to see that Eric was in an alliance with everyone and telling everyone different things. All true!

So what if he never broke his alliance w/Jen. The fact was they have no clue who he was lying to, and that is what D/D were getting Jen to see, NOT that he totally betrayed her. Just that he has everyone in the house thinking they are with him to the end!

Angry fans aside, how did getting Nick out hurt Eric's game?

Lurknomore you say that a lot but I'm still confused. How would keeping Nick have helped Eric's game strategically?

good point Wink...but everytime I come here that is the talk so I respond lol. Of course it is the most important happening in the house now, so I can understand it being talked about here too. But it is confusing knowing where to post what!
