Dick admitted to cheating. He said his son used a code in the letter he wrote him when he was HOH. I can't believe it was caught on the live feeds. I'm sure BB wishes they had gone to the vortex. He's gotten away with murder in there, how are they going to let this slip? Dick should have a penalty vote. Funny, he's constantly telling everyone else how stupid they are, & he ADMITS to cheating on camera! Here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKuLTnVC7w4 Write to CBS and tell them how you feel if you agree.

How does anyone except the producers know that writing a coded letter is cheating??

Beckie---great point. But, I think the reason some of us feel it is cheating, is because most of us are under the impression that receiving any outside infromation regarding the game would be a direct violation of the rules of BB.

I think as long as the twists weren't revealed that there is no harm in coded letters. If Vincent didn't reveal the twists, which doesn't sound like he did...I see no problem with it. That's is, in fact, the whole reason BB doesn't want outside interference, because of the twists...that's all

Beckie, Airplane banners do not reveal twists, neither should letters from home.

BB knows about the code in the letter, and let him keep the letter. Why I don't know, but they can't be too bothered about it or they'd have confiscated it as soon as they found out. He's been talking about still trying to work out some of the codes, so clearly if BB thought there was much damage to be done they'd have taken the letter away so Dick couldn't still work on it.

Not necessarily. Kitt. I think you are giving BB too much credit --especially this year when BB's favorites have been so clear and given so many passes and so much help throughout the summer.

If they wanted to slip Dick or anyone else bits of information we know they would have done that in the diary room. We know they have done that in the diary room in fact! So I would say either they've asked Vincent what's in the code and he told them, or at this stage in the game they don't care. I think right now as long as it doesn't say about AP it's all pretty much irrelevant.

But, only, do we know that Vincent revealed twists?? I would assume that we would hear Dick ranting and raving if he found out about it. Like I said, I don't think Vicent told his dad about the twists, I think he just told him who was a bigger threat or who was working against him when they said they weren't. I don't think anything major was given out.

Yada- I'm not writing because I beleve Dick was bragging and exagerating as usual and the letter was after the fact and has no bearing on F2 comps.

Right now my only problem is that BB did not dare to mention it on the show. If it was violating a rule or not at this point seems secondary. I don't like that so far they are avoiding the whole situation. All that does is leave speculation and yet another stain on this season. I want to see them aknowledge it and then if it's not a violation explain why. If it was accepted behavior I would think there would be no need for it being in a code. I'd call it a nice little sneaky attempt but when he goes and admits it while holding the letter it sorta defeats any brilliance in regard to the plan. I'm still waiting to see if the show will say anything about it.

Ambi I would agree with you, if it not been for the fact that Vincent posted at another website, confirming they had had a plan. Its funny cuz he said his dad has a "big mouth" but, in posting at the other site, Vincent probably didn't realize, his words didn't help the matter. lol

I'm closing this thread since there's another one that's been on the board for several days here.
