Lucymac, I totally agree. People will NOT listen to reason and they go off voting to try to hurt Eric and end up hurting Jessica and now they are sorry and upset because Jessica is upset! As they say: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Hindsight is definitely 20/20!

I think that Eric is one of the most intelligent players that BB has cast for us . . . I am so sorry that his game has been so compromised by America's audience messing with him and trying to cause him grief. I think that Lainee put it so well and I agree with her and her heart: America/posters are deliberately setting out to hurt Eric because he isn't entirely giving up his own game to help further the game of their favorite player. I think he is entirely within his rights to ignore a task and play the game for himself. His punishment for not doing a task is that he doesn't get paid...

In the coming weeks, if Eric does not make it to the end, and goes to the sequester house, will he be able to tell the other houseguests there that he was America's player and that is why he played as he did?

We don't know...Julie was telling the evicted houseguests about the twist but she most likely won't tell any of them starting this week because they are going to sequester and will be part of the jury.

Can't he just talk to her and not complete the task? I would just talk to her and say the heck with this task. He has to figure by now that some people are not voting in his best interest. If Eric is gonna go anywhere at all he better consider crossing over from the dark side. And what, go to the really really dark side? The black hole? The nothing?

I originally thought once Eric got to the jury house he would probably be able to tell those in sequester about AP but the more I think about it, I doubt it. It really depends on what his final task is. Is it just to place the vote for America, or will it be to try to convince the jury to vote the way America wants? If it is only placing the vote, then fine he could tell and wouldn't even have to know himself until the finale how America votes. But if he has to try to sway their vote, then they can't know why,

It looks like the crisis is averted. Jess is being very receptive to his explanation.

He said he is sorry but BB wanted him to quarantine himself, and he told told her that when BB was telling him to switch his mic, they were really telling him to get out of HoH. He went on to explain how he told BB he was ticked at them for making him do this since it was such an important day to talk to people..etc..He did a pretty good job, Kitt. Jess is all smiles with him again right now in HoH.

Have any of you read Eric's brother's thread at Sucks? It was pretty good, until it was recently overtaken by the haters.

I wasn't a fan of BB1, when America voted. No offense to America, but America's votes have sucked in more than just the BB game. I'm not a fan of Eric's at all, but this just is just really stupid. The point of having an America's player for some seems to be to play stupid. I guess if those voters were in the house they'd be deliberately screwing up their own game? As my dad once said: People are free, which means they're free to be a******* too.

Thanks Naja. I'm amazed he got away with it, but glad that Jess is feeling a bit better. What a stupid AP question from BB and imo a stupid choice from the voters too.

LOL! For the record, I edited it within about 15 seconds of posting it. Plus it says the same thing anyway (just phrased a little better or so I thought). Before it said: I'm happy that Jessica wasn't hurt by this.

Kmin I so agree with you, and I think the reason people are not being strategic, is that there are now alot of 20s young viewers and they were kids when BB1 came on. Just for the heck of it, I've looked just at profiles of people at this site, who are making it difficult for Eric and don't like him, and most of them are very young.

But, Loppes, in defense of those on the site...we aren't the only ones voting...the majority of the voters only watch the tv show. They do not have live feeds or go to message boards.
