Jimmer, okay okay, I concede. I guess to me it was pretty clear and a no brainer when he came out of DR after the Tuesday night show. At any rate, I'm not a conspiracy theorist toward BB, and don't think they excluded showing the card for any devious reasons and simply have a limited amount of time in tonights show to deal with the major blow up in the house this week along with the girls trip to New York.

They didn't show the card because they don't show it on the night of the live nominations, they show it in a clip from when he gets his orders from America on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning.

Because they didn't show that clip, along with the clip of Eric going to Jameka and promising not to vote her out (because really, how interesting is that??) they had to have him say in the DR that America votes to evict Jen, because they hadn't had time to previously edit in to the show his being given the results.

It's a freakin' piece of paper, created by the staff, not the sealed results of the Oscar Votes that have been carefully audited by the accounting firm of Price Waterhouse. If the producers wanted to lie about the votes, all they had to do was type Jen's name into their word processing program and the deed is done.

I agree that BB can do whatever they want and put whatever they want on the card. There is no proof that any part of the process is audited.

All I was saying is that it isn't a slam dunk that America still disliked Jen as much as they appeared to before, because they voted for Eric to try to get Amber nominated. America didn't vote to get Jen nominated.

Anyway, I agree that it is a moot point.

They don't usually do the card thing on the vote. For the Thursday vote, Julie usually says something like "we know you're going to evict xxx but ... (some question)".

My theory of why it was different this time is that I have heard Eric say phrases like "at no time did I ever say I voted to evict Kail". He can actually say that and not by lying, because Julie tells him the vote. The way they did it tonight Eric couldn't tell half-truths in the same way as he did actually say he "votes to evict".

He said, "Me and America are thrilled to evict Jen." At least on the west coast he said America.

nope. I dont believe it was Jen. She was talking to the cameras about the public keeping her.

I also voted for jameka and the thread for us to talk about it was huge.

They never showed the card because we didnt vote jen.

SCAmmmmmmmm LOL

Everyone I talked to voted to evict Jen. Not one person that I know off the board, voted to evict Jameika.

Kearie, I think he might have said "we" (but maybe you're right) but my point was the "vote to evict" phrase was there. Or not. It might just have been to speed things up!

But there wasn't ever a card on Thursday, so it was just a change in wording in the interview - no big conspiracy and nothing to do with fear of others seeing the card.

I don't think people realize that the Dick and Dani fans always seem to vote one way in their votes to evict and nominate. This week most of the Dick and Dani fans will vote Amber.

People who are not fans of DD scatter their votes. Look at the threads...

Help Eric Evict Dani.
Help Eric evict Dick.
Help Eric evict Jameka.

The thread to evict Amber is weak...but... you see it all over the board from D/D fans.

D/D fans vote one way....

everybody else votes for various other people.

I think Amber will be the person America votes to nominate.

I think it was a time thing because Julie also started asking who each HG was voting to evict as soon as they opened the DR door...normally they at least get to sit down.

As others have said, the show was packed. They didn't have time to do the usual America's Player bit where Eric finds out who America wants gone and then reacts to it. So, instead, they had him reveal it with the vote.

I have no trouble believing America voted Jen. I'll chime in with the others here on the "everyone I know who watches the show voted for Jen" commentary but I also think Jen has gotten more negative coverage overall than Jameka. Sure, the last two weeks haven't focused on Jen much but remember that she's been in the spotlight for the majority of the show and it's rarely been all that positive.

I think some may have voted for Jen just to get her out of there; not because they didn't like her but because of all she had been through. Yes she did some questionable things at the end but she also took a lot of crap from just about everyone in that house.

That doesn't make any sense. If they wanted to "rig" the vote, they would have just put the name they wanted in envelope.

That made me laugh. Do all of the conspiracy theorists think that America gets together and makes a card to send in or do they think that BB had a meeting and said "America said we have to put Jameka's name on this card so we will and we'll just tell Eric to say Jen and not show the card." LOL

I think BB set it up last night for one purpose and this is to give Eric a chance to speak his vote in a hateful manner.

I don't know whether America voted for Jameka or Jen to be evicted. It doesn't really matter. BB can make the "vote" be anything they want it to be.

But instead of Julie announcing the AP vote as she usually does BB wanted to let Eric have his say. He's going to eat those words eventually though because when the season is over he's going to have a bunch of trouble. Too bad, Eric. So sad.

500,000 is a lot of moola

It's a freakin' piece of paper, created by the staff, not the sealed results of the Oscar Votes that have been carefully audited by the accounting firm of Price Waterhouse

for the integrity of the game I think we should be getting the actually Vote distributions and SEE Eric show us the card results.


((sequester house isnt shown until the second HG surprises the first))

Good lord.........I bet CBS was the one who shot JR too. I think we need to call the sponsers of "DALLAS" to protest.
