I thought Nick was just pretending to be in the Mrs Robinson alliance.

Who exactly is supposed to be the 6 person alliance?

The six person alliance is Kail, Zach, Mike, Nick, Jen and Eric but I don't think Eric is in that alliance. He can't really be in any firm alliance expect with us as he is America's player. Also Nick told Dani yesterday that he was faking he's alliance with Kail and them and I really think Zach is on the outside of it too.

Kail, Mike, Zach, Nick, Jen and Eric ="6 person alliance" but it's not for real at all.
Zach wants Joe gone before Dick for some reason but he will vote however Mrs.Robison tells him to,lol.
Mike, voting with the Mrs.
Nick, voting for his future father in law
Jen, voting for Dick to leave
Eric, voting how America tells him to and is probably ok with either of them going.
I think all the supposed alliances are weak and it could go either way but I'm leaning toward Dick staying.

Okay, I get it. The 6 person alliance includes Eric (who is really in that 10 million person alliance with all of us) and Nick (who has stated that he is just faking his loyalty in the Mrs Robinson alliance) and Jen (who cannot vote tomorrow).

10 voters total....which includes a 6 person alliance that, in reality, only adds up to 4, one of which can't even vote tomorrow.

This will be an interesting eviction!

I agree that it's a lot more exciting when so many of them are really floaters or double agents. It isn't so obvious as it is with a house divided into two main camps like it has been in previous years.

oh, Scoot, I knew that! LOL, I was so into explaining who the 6 were that I rolled right past that fact. If she could vote, she would vote out Dick, no?

But, there's 10 voting this week, right?

So, doesn't that mean that if it ends up a tie then Jen would cast the deciding vote and she would get rid of Dick? So, that means that if the other "three" in her alliance vote, they only really need to get two others to vote that way and she casts the deciding vote. Or am I missing something here?

This is infinitely more fun than Season 6 where we were certain who was leaving.

There seems to be a misconception that Eric HAS TO do what BB suggests that he has to. He doesnt. Only if he completes FIVE tasks does he benefit...and he is only one for four at this point?

2 of 4 Sunshyne (The Carol vote and the sob story to Kali), so getting this one would be 3.

"There seems to be a misconception that Eric HAS TO do what BB suggests that he has to. He doesnt."

I don't think that's a misconception at all.

Eric has stated that he will do what America tells him to and it seems like he wants to. So far, he has shown that he is absolutely willing to do whatever we tell him to.

Eric's quote is at the end of this article:

Big Brother 8' reveals houseguest relationships and America's Player

<snipped due to length>

"So it looks like I'm going to be America's Player," Eric revealed to Big Brother 8's home viewing audience at the premiere's conclusion. "Welcome to reality TV's first alliance of 10 million. I couldn't be more excited. We're going to pull-off reality TV history. We're going to win this thing... You guys are in full control of my destiny in this house. You're gonna be able to tell me who to vote for, who to target for nomination... Your wish is my command. I'm here to give you guys what you want. I hope America realizes this is a chance for us to be the stars of this show and send everybody else packing. I am the quintessential Big Brother player. I've got the brains, I've got the cutthroat skills... We're going to have some fun."

<snip>

I had previously posted this in the "Current BB House Happenings Discussion" thread, but that thread moves so fast, I think a lot of people might have missed it.

I thought Eric gets 10K for each task he completes...and there is going to be five tasks?

Maybe I heard wrong?

i read something that said he had a Choice. I realize his "cue cards" had him say those things on the first show..but his body language was all over the place.

Wilsonatmd, don't forget, he also tried to get into bed with Joe, but he couldn't fit and gave up...and he also tried to target Jessica for eviction but no one took the bait.

He has yet to refuse to do anything we voted for. He has tried to do everything we voted for, but he just wasn't always successful.

I think America voted for him to target Joe this week. He refused to divulge his decision for tomorrow's vote to everyone that asked yesterday evening, but I've read here on the board that around 1am he was called into the DR where I think they gave him the choice we voted for him because after he came out, he let Dick know he was voting for Joe.

I have no doubt that he will vote for Joe, if, indeed, that is who America voted for him to target.

I thought he got $10k for every five tasks he completed. The longer he stays the more potential for him to take home cash.

My understanding is that Eric will receive $10k for each set of 5 tasks he completes. I think its his option how much effort he puts into completing a task. At this point he has failed 3 out of 4 times.

Redhawk, I recall it differently. Eric has to complete five tasks to get the $10K; don't know how many total tasks he will be given.

Yes, Eric gets 10K for every 5 tasks he completes.

They also said that if he makes it to the jury, America (we viewers) will get a vote in the final two. That's because Eric is a surrogate HG for us (AKA "America's Player"), so if he's on the jury, we are on the jury!

We will get a vote in the final two because we would be telling Eric who to vote for.

Red, Eric was successful with his vote and with his sob story. He failed at getting into bed with Joe and getting Jess on the block. He is 2/4.

I just read the CBS site...for every 5 tasks he completes successfully he gets 10K. So the longer he stays, and the more he completes, the more he earns.
