When Dani and Amber got back from their trip did they get to tell the others anything about it?

sisalou, Dani and Amber were only allowed to talk about the lemo, the plane and the hotel. they were not allowed to talk about the Power of Ten or even hint anything at all about it.

Thanks all - so I guess I need to take up smoking if I ever decide to try out for BB. Teacups and chaise lounges are not my idea of comfortable seating.

Kristen,

Jen said since Dick hid all her belongings, she tried to work out in flip flops and it didn't work out so well, so swimming laps in the pool was her only form of exercise.

Sis, not really. Said they flew to New York on a private plane, that they weren't allowed to talk to anyone except their handlers, they had to wear blindfolds and headphones at one point, and that the other hg's would find out in a few days since they weren't allowed to talk about it. I haven't watched the feeds since this morning so one of them may have slipped.

Kristen, not that I've heard or read. Mybe she was just blowing off steam or was bored?

Why do people post "Wrong Thread" and that's all?
I see this all the time in here.
If you go to a thread and don't like what it's
discussing, or it wasn't what you thought it was
going to be about, or you miss clicked on the
wrong link...why post Wrong Thread?
Just leave the thread.
What's the story behind posting "Wrong Thread"?

chances are, darclyte, that they posted something before realizing that, took their post out, but posted wrong thread since they couldn't delete it entirely. just guessing.

I think you misunderstand, Darclyte. When people post in the wrong thread and then realize they've made a mistake, they sometimes go back and edit their post, erasing the original text and replacing it with "Wrong thread".

Darclyte, people "usually" post "wrong thread" when they realized themselves that they posted in the wrong thread, they use the edit button on their own post to delete what they said and replace it with "wrong thread"...It's usually not a comment directed at anybody, just a reason left behind why they deleted their own post comment, rather than leaving nothing.

btw, at other boards I belong to, it's considered good netiquette to type "eta" (edited to add) if you change anything about your original post other than spelling corrections.

For instance, an erased post due to it being in the wrong thread would netiquette correctly be done as "eta: deleted wrong thread".

Isn't it because for some reason you can never just delete your post easily? A weird error message comes up.

You can not delete a post. You can edit it within a certain timeframe (5-10 minutes).

Dani was 21 yesterday I think. She was given some champagne and took a sip for a photo in NY, so Amber told Dick.

I don't know if this is for sure, Bigsis, but yesterday Dick told the others that Jen's penalty nomination for next week was changed to a penalty vote for this week. The penalty nom would have changed the course of the game (presumably because they might vote Jameka out this time because they knew they could vote Jen out next time). If that's correct then if she survives the vote this week she's back to normal next week I'd guess.

I couldn't remember what the coup d'etat was either, but I googled it:

Julie explains the Coup d’Etat to the audience (not the HGs). In any of the next three evictions, the winner of the Coup d’Etat will have the ability to overthrow the HoH and replace the nominations on the spot right before the voting. But none of the other HGs will know what the power is until it is used. The HGs will be competing for this over the next week.

What was Jen's explanation for swimming all those laps??


She tried to work out but had no clothes or sneakers, only flip flops so she decided to swim. Then I think she decided to do the 440 laps or whatever because it's one of the trivia facts that BB gives out over the speaker sometimes. She said maybe they were saying it for a reason and they'd be some prize. Later she joked about getting a party for it.
