Hand grenade-Dixie from here on in is the Washer of the house...she must do all house mates laundry..a lot were going to ask BB if they could do their own undergarments as they feel those are personal

is there anywhere on the site that they show how the HG's are voting? I looked the other day and couldn't find it. Thanks.

So far this season has been weird to me. I don't have any strong feelings about anyone except I think that Travis is the oddest guy I have ever seen. He sure seems emotionally young to me, maybe that's it, too young for the house, I feel like I am watching a child (younger than Corey). By the way, when does Corey go.

Corey is gone, I think it was on Friday's daily show, but he apparently left wednesday.

I don't really like the new eviction process. Being as greedy as possible, they allow voting right up until the eviction show. So nobody knows who is nominated until the actual eviction show. It just seems like there is no suspense at all any more.

It would be better if they would stop voting, say on Friday and announce the ACTUAL nominees to the FNL winner. As it is now what the FNL winner is told is worthless as it always changes.

Dipo, I'm seeing how the HG's are voting @ this site in the Youtube videos of the eviction show.

http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=xx2OOxx&p=r

I think the votes may have been close (haven't watched everyone's yet) and am very, very, upset if Bianca/Dixie turned on Rebecca. Don't they realize the boys will pick them off one by one?? I was SOOO wishing Dixie was the next lowest vote getter. She acted so rude during the hand grenade episode. Did she really have to eat during the grenade explanation? Couldn't she have waited a few minutes?

I used to like Bianca, but don't like her that much anymore since she and Dixie have teamed up. Rebecca was my favorite and I was so pleased when she won HOH so she'd be safe...hah!

It wouldn't have mattered if Rebecca hadn't given herself the 4 points or not- she was gone regardless. (She had 22, Ben had 15, and Rory got 5. Rebecca gave her 2 to Ben, so if she hadn't had given the 4 to herself and given the four to Ben and 2 to Rory, she would have still had 18, Ben would have 17, and Rory 7).

Rebecca got 1 from David, 1 from Terri, 2 from Nobbi, 2 from Bianca, 2 from Alice, 2 from Dixie, 2 from Nathan, 2 from Renee, 2 from Ben, 2 from Rory, and 4 from herself.

Ben got 2 from David, 2 from Brigette, 2 from Terri, 1 from Nobbi, 1 from Bianca, 1 from Dixie, 1 from Nathan, 1 from Renee, 1 from Travis, 1 from Rory, and 2 from Rebecca.

Rory got 1 from Brigette, 1 from Alice, 2 from Travis, and 1 from Ben.

(I think Rebecca just wanted out, Ben is in trouble if he's nominated again, but Rory is in good shape- a lot of the HM's like him, so that's why he got so few points.)

After watching the whole eviction show, Wilson, I now realize that. I was thinking who in the heck would want to be HOH if they couldn't save themselves. On another board they are saying this was a set up between Rebecca and BB. They say she told the DR she wanted to go home this week; it was arranged for her to win the games and all of sudden she wasn't part of the bottom 3, but rather right there @ number 4 to step in and vote heself out. Hmmmm.

I like how Dixie decided to make nice to Brigitte after telling the DR she might be in the bottom 3 and get voted out by Brig's friend, Rebecca. I completely agree with Rebecca that Dixie/Bianca gossip so much about the other girls because they are jealous of them.

I wouldn't mind seeing Dixie/Bianca next to each oher (with Rory, heh, heh) next week. For some reason, the housemates think Renee will win this game. I do agree with Rory being nommed every week and not getting voted out, he could make it to the end.

I am just getting caught up now. Poor Travis' mom sure was on the defensive about her son's personality. So many things I want to say about it, but I think it's all considered politically incorrect to even discuss it, no matter what view you have. That's a shame.

Travis is one of my 3 favs at the moment, he is very entertaining, and it stuns me he was in the bottom 3.

Naja, I know what you mean. However, maybe Travis is just super naive...who knows? It was interesting to see his name called as being on the bottom 3. His face got flushed and you could tell he was upset. I'm now wondering if he really was on the bottom 3 at all. However, if I were a voter in Australia I might stop voting for Travis as I see him as playing Josh's (BB8) game with him getting everyone to tell him who the like/dislike. Vewy sneaky, lol.

With how BB is showing Bianca/Dixie going on about Rebecca, I wouldn't be surprised to see them in the bottom 3 at all this week.

What I don't like is Kyle S..the host...he seems to be getting more and more snide..I thought the host was to take a more impartial role..he is making remarks about Travis...telling Rebeca that no one likes IT in the house in reference to Bianca...he can't keep the house mates straight..I feel for Jackie O..she has to work with this bumbling man

May I ask how you all view the other BBs from other countries? And are you watching Live Feeds or the actual show?

I have been watching the shows here http://bbcouchpotatoes.blogspot.com/. They have daily shows plus a couple of specials each week. I have also been reading a bit at jokers here http://forums.jokersupdates.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php?Cat=&C=9&ShowCat=1. With the daily shows I don't feel like I am missing to much.

I'm thoroughly enjoying this week's Big Mouth. It's hysterical. I'm watching it here:

http://www.youtube.com/user/bbaus8

I'm surprised that everyone (in the house and on the Big Mouth show) thinks Nathan is using Renee for gameplay. I think he really likes her.

What does everyone here think?

Where is Brigitte getting her clothes? Is it possible Rebecca left some of her clothes for Brigitte to wear?

Heh, heh, nice that Dixie doesn't want to put down Brigitte, but goes on to call her an airhead!

Rebecca did not leave her anything but the red dress,,,,yesterday they did the vending machine which is part of the HOH duties,,wasn't shown in the daily show last week..Bridge's clothes were on offer but Alice decided to forgo them...got chocolate and a cricket bat instead...so the clothes must be borrowed...

They all got into the strategy room yesterday for a short while..so they all know who was in the bottom 3 for the last two weeks..and some were hard core strategizing ..but it seems if Bridge is in the bottom 3 she will get cut..and if not Terri..

Thanks for the info, Kellee. I still don't understand when the peeps are allowed to go in the strategy room. Last week when Travis found out who the bottom 3 were, it kind of traveled around the house, but this week it didn't seem like Brigitte or Rebecca told the others. However, I don't have the feeds, so don't really know.

I wonder if Alice is surprised she's on the hit list.

This is the best site I have found for BB AU. It has the daily shows, friday night comps, and big mouth, where they recap things. It is also updated very well.

Big Brother tells them when the strategy room is open, Up till now it has only been for an hour after Friday Night Games. So they were pretty shocked when Big Brother Announced it would be open for one hour. They all kinda rotated in and out of there within the hour. The only people who seem not to is Terri and Nobbi. Ben even commented on Rory standing outside the door yelling for them to go faster.

Some odd combinations like David and Nate, and Bianca and Bridgette. Alice was surprised but not as much as Dixie to find out Alice had been on the list.

I'd like to comment on what Kelleesaid about Kyle not being impartial.

This is my main complaint with BBAU, but Ryan isn't as bad as with the three hosts of Friday Night Live. I wish they would be root for everyone and stop going on and on about how Terri should win because she's old. Being old is not a reason for everyone to let you win. I don't mind when the men root for the boys and Bree roots for the girls but the constant talk about one player bugs me whether I like that player or not.

Callasin..yep with you on the Terri thing..but then again I think she is holding her own in there and think she does add something..but they do push her too hard on the audience..

I just hate when the hosts are cruel with their comments ..Ryan was about Rima the FNG ..before he knew she broke her leg..next week he appologized..

on the panel show Big Mouth I don't mind the choosing sides as much..cause that is the format..debate..but on the main..don't be cruel..if as a host you can't say something nice..don't say it..

wasnt Gretel chastized for being mean and hard on some guests and that help lead to her being booted.

Btw loved the other one of Carson crashing..which was filmed last Thursday...Biannca and Dixie looked stunning..Dave and Nobbi looked hot..Now they are pretaping all the events..apparently last night they were hypnotized by the guy that they were to have in in O^ Paul Powers or something...

I like Kyle. I think they should be more cruel. Being nice is boring. This show is boring enough already this season.

I'm watching the feed, from yesterday I think, where they are going in the strategy room. It's funny, none of them seem to know what to do with it. Definitely a big change from US BB where ALL they talk about, ever, is strategy. These people are finally given the chance and they have no idea what to do.

I would think it would be the perfect place to set up alliances, or at least figure out who others would vote for so you can try align your votes.

I just got caught up and couldn't believe BB let/made Brigitte watch as the others went on about her. I didn't like her that much @ first, but she's grown on me. I laugh when her face crumbles as she's about to cry. I know that's not nice, but it's just soo funny.

I saw a different side to Brigitte last week when Rebecca befriended her. She was so happy to have a friend and told Rebecca she's very shy. She doesn't trash others as much as Dixie/Bianca do. I know it's confusing if BB lets her have some of her stuff back, while making Nobbi stay in the Kombi and not enter the house, but that's BB and not Brigitte necessarily.

Dixie is very afraid of how she's being portrayed. She's said do in the DR and at the Wed night dinner. I loved how she said in the DR how 'happy' she was to have the hand grenade of washing everyone's clothes (putting on a positive front for the cameras and Australian public) but wasn't it funny how her idea of a hand grenade was to have Nobbi wash all the clothes and herself go stay in the Kombi van. That doesn't sound like someone who's happy with her grenade, lol. I also feel her new softness toward Brigitte is for show and not how she really feels. Sheesh, I wanted Alice to just GET IT OUT! She kept saying how surprised she was @ Dixie's attitude toward Brigitte because....but she never finished actually.

I can't help but feel BB is doing what they are doing to Brigitte to garner sympathy from the Australian public to ensure Brigitte stays off the bottom 3 or 5. She is a good draw for them.

Flagg, it was funny how they would just go with different peeps to the strategy room and they seemed to want sodas more than talk strategy, lol. I thought it was nice of Brigitte to tell Bianca she would save her if she won FNL.

DUH on me re the "rose colored glasses." Took me awhile to get that.

I'm not liking Rory that much and you'd think he'd tone it down after being in the bottom 3 all the time. Also, I don't like Nobbi's confrontational ways. He makes me laugh a lot and I like watching him dance, but why call people out all the time? What gives him the right? I don't like him and Rory together.
