a lot of us don't care that 'we' didn't pick him. we are enjoying having a say in the assignments, even if he fails. those who do not like this twist, why ruin it for those of us who are having fun? in the end it doesn't matter how this game plays out. at least to me it doesn't.it does not affect me in the grand scheme of my life.after all, God has already preordained the outcome. i like having an AP and i am glad God is allowing me to have a lot of fun voting.

Why does Eric HAVE to continue to be AP? Couldn't he just decide to forgoe the money and start playing for himself? It couldn't be much worse for him than it is now.

I suppose he could try but I expect that he signed some sort of agreement. Of course, he could just ignore all of the instructions but he still couldn't vote the way he wanted to.

If Eric IS on the block this week, I hope they DO take the vote away from the HGs and let America decide who they want to go...Kail or Eric. It would be awesome, and we already know that the contracts say the audience may be given a vote, since Jen clearly told us it was in their contracts. Oh, and I would want Eric to stay!

Out. I am over this AP twist. It hasn't added anything to the show...and he gets on my nerves. (Oh, and for the record, I'm not a big Dick & Danielle fan...I don't really have a favorite this season.) I started out liking Dick but that has faded...if I had to pick someone to win I guess I would go with Zach...just because it would be such a shock to the rest of them.

I don't approve of the way he is handling things on his own, but I say that at this point CBS should blow his cover and I would vote for him to stay and let him play.

BB/CBS should blow his cover and give him the same opportunity to win as everyone else.

The twist is messing with the game big time, and hurting some of the players unnecessarily, causing severe paranoia and distress, and I'm finding Eric to be quite unlikeable, so, out him, let him play the game, but he'll sink or swim based on how the others react, and I don't fancy his chances after lying to each and every one of them. I wouldn't miss either the twist or the player.

All this AP stuff proves that America can't handle having a vote.BB will never give the public a vote again in future seasons.I'm pretty sure they knew this would happen and they can finally tell the viewers "America you just don't understand how to play Big Brother".

I vote to evict Kail. Eric has had more to deal with than any other HG in BB history, and I admire the way he's been able to keep all those balls in the air.

I think the original idea of an AP was great, but unfortunetly, the banner plane really messed up the game. I don't think people would havefigured it was Eric for a couple of weeks. I am glad the Eric is going to at least make it to the jury (providing he isn't voted out this Thursday..and I think he will stay)...so, for me, I like that America will get a vote on the jury. I just want to add...that I would like to have a BB season without any twists at all, and I really hope that BB9 (if there is one....pleeeeeze) that they just have a normal game.

Eric will only be able to cast our vote for us if he is allowed to vote. Eric can't vote so we can't vote.

I also vote to evict Kail. Not because I'm a fan of Eric, I'm just sick and tired of her and it's time for Kail to go home.

AP player would work great if they weren't allowed to discuss who to vote for as a herd. If each individual had to make their own decision without discussing it as a group THEN AP would work. But, when they get together and vote as a bloc an off vote stands out like a sore thumb. I vote to evict Kail and BB should come clean about the AP and let Eric play the game.

I like watching Eric try to figure out how to do Americas bidding AND still play his game. Big Brother HAS to have a twist...to properly play with the heads of the hampsters. Keep Eric.

I vote to evict Eric. Despite the AP twist, his complete and utter willingness to attempt to strongarm/blackmail Amber, his admitting that, that is what he will do when the time is right, is soooooo disgusting to me, that he needs to leave before sequester, so he can't pollute the BB waters more.

I vote to evict Eric as well. For someone who claims to have watched every episode of past seasons and is the BB know all....he sure doesn't play the game very well. I'd love to see Will in there...Eric wouldn't stand a chance! I agree with Robinyyes, for him to use that extremely personal information about Amber, (given to him as a friend whom she knew before the show, and trusted) and blackmail her with it speaks alot about his true character. It's one thing to play the game, a little lying, some deceit, but to use something so personal to bring a person down is disgusting IMO.

"For someone who claims to have watched every episode of past seasons and is the BB know all....he sure doesn't play the game very well." His game has been compromised by viewers that voted for choices that caused Eric to do things he would not have done otherwise, not to mention sending a banner to expose him further. His two odd votes that have drawn such scrutiny aren't due to Eric not playing the game very well....they are due to America telling him to vote contrary to what would benefit him in the game.

The day he completely went against our votes with Nick, and made a farce of the AP role is the day I felt he needed to leave...so OUT is my vote! The AP reminds me of BB1...great potential, not executed properly. They should have told the HG that one player was playing for America, and we would be voting. That they were never permitted to discuss it in the house with anyone. Oh the paranoia. Folks heads would be spinning, but they couldn't compare notes. And my guess is the reason Eric went in as a HG not a mole is for legal stuff. But if they let the HG know my next guess is that no longer is an issue. This would add to distrust, but since they can't talk about it (and BB should learn to enforce rules) then linch mobs couldn't form and they couldn't assume as a group that it's so and so. Just guess and then decide accordingly. And if there are funny votes it might give some players an idea of what we want. I think it would have been far more interesting that way, plus if the AP is just a hired role then there is no debate about fairness to him etc. He would purely be in there for US...the end!

We didn't work for him, he worked for us. He stamped a Nick eviction 3 days before he got his assignment from us..he had literally no time to sway the votes and he didn't try hard anyway because he wanted to use his own agenda. I don't like the way he is playing "his own game"..I want him OUT.

"They should have told the HG that one player was playing for America, and we would be voting." Then they would have all been whispering a lot lower and more often when they discussed strategy because they would know a voter (the public) could hear everything they say. They would hold back on the drama and everyone would get really bored and complain about how bad BB is. "Folks heads would be spinning, but they couldn't compare notes. " So the viewers could watch them play cards and chess while not talking strategy. That would just make the HGs clam up and be more boring because they'd know the public watches them 24/7 and could vote to screw up their strategy if they target a HG with a lot of fans.

Eric has screwed up his own game...not us. He knew for weeks America wanted Kail out...but did he start campainging against her...NO. He pushed and pushed for Nick to go and then acted "surprised" that America wanted Kail gone. DUH! Was that strategic for him...someone who knows the game so well? I don't claim to be a BB expert but I could have told you before the vote who America would choose..and it wasn't Nick. And I thought the twist was America's player...not America being played. If we are supposed to vote according to what HE wants or WHO he wants...I'd say that is us being played. So what is the twist? I think the whole concept has been a big flop.
