There isn't all that much tech talk here, but the new thread is a good idea.

Check this thread on Behind Big Brother. Hilarious.

http://forum.behindbigbrother.com/showthread.php?t=30747

Michael, who was giving Brigitte quite a hard time about wanting to be in "Zoo Weekly" and "Ralph" which are Australian Maxim clones basically, was called on it by an interviewer because his girlfriend is a stripper. He got quite irate and threw around a few threats. Very funny seeing him getting a bit of bad press when he was such an obvious press wh-re.

He went in the house knowing he would walk for a tour in a couple weeks.

YEAY! according to Mike Goldman, Rima is coming back! She has a pin in her leg, but really wants to, and he is happy about it. He also says that the theme for FNL this weeks is Hip Hop, with the top three dancers from Oz. The Article is linked at Jokers.

So much for no outside contact.

If it were anyone else I'd bet they wouldn't have been let back in the house after being outside for so long.

Wow, in the last episode I watched, they aren't editing Dixie in the best light. I wonder if they are trying to show her to to voters so she wont get votes and be up for eviction. I don't like her that much, but I'd still rather see one of the guys from the HT Mafia alliance go first.

thats pretty much Dixie on the feeds too...she really is the Debbie Downer of the house. I was really rooting for her in the beginning, but come ooooon girl, suck it up and deal with it a bit better! Im surprised with the Danger Zone people tho, I thought Saxon would be a fan fav.

Dixie has been getting a bad edit from the minute she entered the house.

Everybody else is moaning about food as well, but the only one they show usually is Dixie. She doesn't help things when she practically orgasms when she gets chocolate, but they are really going out of their way to show the fat girl and her food obsession. Though it is obvious she has a problem. Taking an apple to bed?

just wanted to add, hes not my fav, just thought he would be a fan fav. I guess my favs right now would be Travis and Alice.
This show doesnt seem to have the room to edit the hgs in one way or another as much as US BB. With so many shows per week, and the Big Mouth panel discussing every move they make, they have to show more realism than out US version.
We live feeders are in the minority in the US, but it seems that the viewers know much more of what is going on in the house in Oz.

I don't think Dixie is getting a bad edit..she is really like that..on the live feeds and all

few minutes ago all the spa mafia had Travis trapped in the locker room having a go at him about being a "pleaser"...and how fake he seems...Nobbi is in there cause they are getting ready for Friday night games..I just wanted to have someone rescue him...I felt so bad for him..

once he left they were discussing how Travis would give them 2 points...so really kinda code about if he is up give Travis 2 points..

I hate that they seem to be able to talk about points this time..

Well FNL is over- and Nathan won, but because he's immune this week, BB gave the perks to Travis:

-he has access to a special "strategy room", where he can talk to one other HM at a time about who to vote for (the length of these sessions and when the room is open is up to BB however)

-anyone in the special room can ask who is in the bottom three at the moment in terms of the audience vote.

-He can save one of the bottom three before the eviction vote. Whoever is next in line in the vote goes up.

-His votes also count double- 4 points to evict and 2 to save (it looks like the voting is 2 points to evict, then one point to save- whoever has the most eviction points after save points are subtracted is out).

Nathan does have all the rest of the responsibilities as HOH however- he assigns chores, doesn't have to do any work (he's specifically not allowed to) among other things.

Interesting. Does he HAVE to save a person in the bottom 3? Or can he choose not to? Not much of a perk if he puts himself up, just like previous FNL "perks".

It's a mindless stupid power if you MUST use it.

...and once again they show their originality by calling the winner "Head of House".

I too don't think Dixie is getting a bad edit. They are portraying her how she is. I was surprised she decided she wanted to go home also after Rebecca said she did. She didn't like them calling her out at the weekly meeting.

Why was Nobbi asking Travis who his top 3 are? Has he asked others the same thing and is he the only one in the house doing this? He'd fit right in on BBUS, that's for sure.

I don't understand why they gave Nathan's perks to Travis. Just because Nathan is immune shouldn't he be able to still vote and have the larger votes?

Cricket..he wasn't eligible to be voted for thus he can not vote. They gave it to Travis cause he was the runner up. So Terri, Nathan and Corey will not vote this Sunday.

i guess Ben had asked Travis shortly after the y got there, Travis put Ben in his top 3. Then when Nobbi asked Travis put him in the top three. He said he had been spending more time with Nobbi then Ben thus felt closer to him now. Nobbi twisted it and so on.

Thanks, Kellee. I don't like Nobbi's gameplay at this time; however, I kind of like him a bit.

Does anyone know who the current bottom 3 are? They always say the bottom 5, but was HOH (Travis) told the bottom 3 where the viewers heard it?

I still think Nathan should have been able to be HOH. If they weren't going to let him, Terri or Cory win, they shouldn't have let them play. This would have given Nathan some badly needed info this week to help him stay in the game next week.

I just finished watching the FNL games and I will answer my own question, lol. The Bottom 3 are Alice, Rebecca and Saxon.

Who does everyone think Travis will save?

The FNL games were sooo funny this week. The rabbit part was hysterical. I just about peed my pants laughing @ Terri.

Can the HG's hear the live audience on Friday nights? I was wondering if they heard all the booing when the HG's eliminated Terri from the final part. She could have done just as well as Travis did. It seemed he kind of gave up. It would have been a great twist if she was allowed to continue, since they took it away from Nathan; however, I guess they wouldn't have let her have it either, so Travis would still have it. It just doesn't make sense to me why they let them play if they can't win.

At the time he was told, bottom 3 were Saxon, Rebecca and Dixie.

If they go ahead with the "save" perk as it has been described, it's really not fair to the 4th place person.

Positions 1, 2 and 3 all have the chance of being saved, but number 4 will always be nominated with no chance at a save.

What they should do is have the FNL winner save one person from the top FOUR and then they will have the same result but the bumber 4 person at least has a chance at a save.

More so than any other year, it feels like they really are just making this up as they go along.

But wasn't it pretty much the same before? When they saved someone the person with the next highest number of nominations automatically became nominated without the chance to be saved.

I'll be glad when they stop with all these things they've come up with to make the first couple of weeks interesting and get down to playing the game. The strategizing and voting each other out could get interesting. It would be fun if we could vote this way on USBB.

I was confused about that Flagg. I get it now. The current bottom 3 are Alice, Rebecca and Saxon. Could it be that Alice is in 4th now? From what I've been able to ascertain, Rebecca might want to be evicted? That's too bad, because there are others I'd rather see go way before her.

I completely agree with you that they seem to be flying by the seat of their pants. They told the HG's the first eviction was 'permanent' and then brought Terri back because they wanted an older person in the house.

Well I won;t completely spoil it yet but Travis saved Rebecca and the bottom 3 are all males, luckily.

Saxon, Dave and Rory was number 4.
