Do we get to decide who Eric uses the POV on?

I have heard two things on feeds.

One is that the POV meeting will be held on Weds this week (instead of Mon)

then I heard that it will be Monday.

so I am puzzled. there were a few vortex during the convo so who knows.

i found it weird how Eric is approaching Jess. Coming right out and saying he wont use it.

She seemed surprised that they hadnt discussed it.

Well, maybe Diary Room told him he wouldn't use it...although, from what I have been reading the general consensus is that (on the boards at least) America wants to vote on his using it AND who he has to try to get nommed in place. I don't think America would get BOTH those votes, but ya never know, they might, this being BB and all! LOL

Unless they show us the POV comp tonight, it would be a spoiler for Tuesday's show if they let us have a choice, right?

If POV is shown tonight, the vote could be open until the usual midnight.

However, I dont trust that BB will allow us to really vote.

I think Eric absolutely should use it, if for the only reason to cause drama.

Hasn't there been enough drama this season, Sunshyne?! Just joking!

Klaw I thought about that last night as well, they usually don't show us the POV until Tuesday after the ceremony has already taken place. So if they stick to their regular scheduling Eric will be able to make this move himself and I don't think he'll use it. Personally I think he may be kicking himself later if he doesn't use it because this is a golden opportunity to take out one of the D's.

But why would he want to take out Dick or Daniele? With this jury, if he were sitting next to Amber or Jameka at the end, he would lose, and it would be to someone who hadn't even been playing the game (an opinion he has stated).

If Eric's making clear statements of his intentions I'd have hoped he would have checked with the DR on whether he has to wait for instructions. I'm betting he's checked and they've told him it's his decision. And you guys are right - if the POV competition is shown on Tuesday not Sunday then they wouldn't change that to give us the decision vote on Eric's POV.

I think he should keep it the same.

His best bet would be Dick, Dani or maybe Zach in F2. Eric's weakness is Jessica (but I'm happy he has that weakness). Jess would smoke any of them except Jameka, I think. Eric had to remind her last night that she's not there to get Jameka to final two.

(Jameka working hard to get Amber to F2 but that is good strategy for Jameka)

If they do have a vote tonight, I bet it will be this:

Eric is working for you America. He holds the golden power of veto, tell Eric what you want him to do with it.

Text 1 to use it on Amber
Text 2 to use it on Zach
Text 3 to not use it and keep nominations the same.

I would be voting option 2 repeatedly.

I think they should let it be AC. This is the most powerful thing Eric has had all game. There's no reason they can't do it tonight right after the show. They have plenty of time, even if veto ceremony is Monday.

They could hold the vote open for four hours after the show on Sunday. Deliver the decision to Eric late Sunday or early Monday. Hold the ceremony Monday. Edit the show. Air it on Tuesday.

No problem.

LOL, Gina. I love how neatly you solved the problem. I hope BB will do as you say.

Problem is, I think tonight's show is already done. Edited...the whole nine yards...which means the voice over for Eric's task tonight has already been done also.

Now I could be wrong........(it has happened a few times) ............but I think they wait until they know who has won veto before doing the final edits (to decide what angles to show). I have always felt they did it this way.

I think Eric's reference to Wednesday night was just that he says they should make the decision between Amber and Zach the last night. He plans to pressure them each for deals if he "saves" them, not with the POV, but with his vote and the promise of Jess' tiebreaking vote. This might work with Amber who can only count on Jameka's vote, but Zach probably thought he could count on Dick and Dani.. still Eric could swing that vote for him too.

Shades of Dustin claiming to be the one who kept each person in the house.

But, I think the VETO comp and ceremony is shown on Tuesday's show...Thursday night and Friday are Sunday's show. Saturday, Sunday (nothing happens on Sunday as far as comps) and Monday are shown on Tuesday shows. Tuesday and Wednesday (and probably left over stuff) is shown on the Live show on Thursday.

They really could throw it up this week and show the veto ceremony tonight and the luxury comp on Wednesday's show. I dont believe it is written in stone what order things have to be done. Meaning they could propose America's vote tonight. I know they have editing and things to do before putting a show on air but how much of the broadcast show relates to a luxury comp or veto that cant be switched last minute.

Sorry I meant veto competition. And as far doing the actual cerenmony they could have the houseguests do it Tuesday with just the idea of expect the unexpected and to cause the houseguests do wonder why it was changed

America should not decide how Eric uses the Veto in my opinion. He has been hindered enough as AP without changing the show format in order to mess with his game.

Didnt I read somewhere that after a certain point Eric no longer has to complete AP tasks. I thought it was a specific date like September 7th or something like that. Does anyone else remember that?
