I responded to a post in the Team Christ! thread. Caprica stated: Perhaps Adam is hoping to lull James into a false sense of security. If he does not feel to pressured he may not win the veto. My response: It's a thought. But honestly...I don't think James is that stupid. He will be trying just as hard to win that POV just to make sure the noms stay the same. He will not be taking ANY chances. What do you guys think??

True... I think Jamesee still has to win POV. People have posted that there is no more backdooring, but I think there is because if anyone else other than James gets POV, they could use it to take Sheila off and then Adam has to put up a replacement (James), right???

And James is too smart to let his guard down. I think he'll play HARD for that POV!

Definitely, Trueheart, James isn't stupid and I don't think he's going to leave much to chance. Jarr, I think the more scary option for James is if one of the others wins and takes off Sharon (or if Sharon wins and takes herself off). If they do that Adam will lose one of his own group unless he puts up James. If one of the others takes off Sheila then he could still put up Nat or Ryan as a pawn, with Sharon still going. (That was very longwinded but I hope it made sense!)

I think the only person James needs to worry about winning POV is Sharon. I mean the thought of Sheila winning ANY comp. is laughable. Plus, Ryan and Nat are probably so worried about what unpredictable thing Adam might do, I REALLY don't think they will use the POV if either wins it. Because ultimately they lookout for numero uno, themselves. And Sharon or Sheila is not THAT BIG or a loss to Ryan or Nat. Yeah, I think if Nat or Ry wins POV they will keep noms the same out of fear of their own butts going up on the block. I think Adam would keep them the noms the same too. So yeah, the only person IMO James has to worry about is Sharon.

Thanks, Kitt! But let me ask you, say for example if Nat wins the POV and decides to give it to Sheila who comes off the block, is Nat still safe NOT to be Sheila's replacement?

No, Jarr. She would not be safe. If Nat were to use the POV on Sheila she would be fairgame to be nominated. That is why I do not think Nat or Ry will use the POV. They will want to make sure they, themselves, remain OFF the block.

If you win POV and take someone off the block, you cannot be nominated. POV is also like immunity.

Wait..what!?!? That's how it works??? So Nat could take Sheila off and then Adam would NOT be able to nominate Nat as a replacement??? But I thought he could nominate her because then Nat would "technically" no longer have the POV (protection). I totally thought it was the other way...

Exactly, Trueheart...Both Nat and Sheila would be safe.

If you win the power of veto and you are not on the block and you use it to veto someone else, you can not be nominated as a replacement. So James could win and veto Sharon and not be nominated. However, if you are already on the block and use the veto to veto the other nominee, while you can't be nominated, it is a moot point because you are already nominated.

Thanks for clearing that up for me, guys! So why is TC so upset??? The odds are in their favor to win POV and take Sheila off, so why blast on Adam? (Don't worry folks, I still believe James will win the POV!!!!)

The ONLY competition James has is Sharon, Nat and Ryan. He HAS to beat these three. Sheila is no competition at all. And I think that Adam would leave the noms the same if he won it. James just needs to keep the communication lines open with Adam this week.

Aero, I tried to post the "Team Pink" pic you made me with James & my name but I don't know how to embed them into a post. lol Can you help? lol GO TEAM PINK!!! I think James will be so thrilled to see how much support he's got on this thread. I hope someone from his inner circle knows about TVCH & his "fan club". I, too, am so happy that we created and have kept this thread going in strong support of James. It is really very nice to come into this thead with positive thoughts and encouraging words for James and eachother. Thanks to everyone who has posted here in support! I think it's BRILLIANT of Adam not to nominate James for eviction. He knows James has fierce loyalty (ie. Chelsia & Josh) and he may need that in the coming weeks. Clearly, Adam is aware that in the next week or so, his team will eventually have to break up so he needs an ally outside of "Team Christ" (I hate typing those words together). GO JAMES & TY ADAM!! GO TEAM PINK!

I think TC are mad because they didn't give him permission to do it and they want to feel that they were part of the decision. And Ryan and Nat both have side deals with Sharon, and it now looks like Sharon is more likely to be going. Go James! I so hope he wins POV, it will be so much more interesting!

Did they have the nominations yet? If so who did he put up? I can't believe he didn't put up James. Here's hoping he gets the VETO!!!

I can't believe it. Are they planning on trying to win the VETO and then put him up? I am shocked. How is Sheila handling it? Was this a plan by that group? I would imagine that James is happy right now.

Initially I was really pumped but now I just feel like "What's the difference?" I mean he basically HAS to win the veto anyway. Because it looks like if he doesn't win it he will be put up anyway......he has to go after that POV just as desperately as before in order to keep the noms the same.

I'm not sure, I haven't been watching the LF but from what I understand, Adam did it in order to form an alliance of sorts with James. Then, TC harped on Adam and he seems to be second guessing his nominations. But whatever, the noms are done and James will fight to the death for his POV to ensure safety another week.

Not to worry. I think this is a week for "What would you do" POV & in that instance, James would be all over that one with a huge victory. GO JAMES!
