I wish I had more time to watch live feeds this year. I'm dealing with a lot of real life crap that gets in the way of watching BBOZ. I don't hate anyone in the house. I want the 'most interesting' people to stay in the house. the best person to win themoney is often not who I want to see stirring it up in there. I love Demet, Aliesha, Emma, and Jamie. I'd love to see the 3 beauty queens hook up with the mildly acceptable genius. That may be my own fantasy but I'm sticking with it. I'm tired of the Hayley-Andrew thing. Boot 'em out. It's page 3 news at best now. (Note: Hayley is a smoking hot woman and Andrew seems like an alright fella - but they need to go, their heads are getting awfully big.) Give the funny guy a chance - Joel amuses me. I want to see more of the guy and his antics. Zoran can hold the door open for Haydrew and then leave himself. What a disappointment Sussannaahh[sic] has been. A definite hottie with zero personality and limited motivation to even try to become part of the BB experiment. Oh, Susannah... we'd love to have her stay and get frisky but she's a bore. I put Demet on my 'Love List' but she needs to have more than attitude to keep my interest much longer. Anything that resembles Jamie from last year is on my 'hit list'. We can't go through the mandana thing and have another season. Where is Vesna when you need her?

Scazy, why does this happen every year? lol How can you like Demet and Emma, I mean seriously? SERIOUSLY! lol Hayley and Andrew's heads are getting awfully big? I agree with that, to an extent, but how can you say that and not think Emma's or Demet's is? Emma went into that house saying "I'm gonna be a snob and only like the people I deem worthy of my time"...and she did just that. She has a good winge about how Rebecca and Jamie have taken zero time to get to know her, but then sits and says she doesn't want to get to know them because they're "weird". She reminds me of one of those ignorant girls in school that absolutely ripped on people because she couldn't relate to them. Not being able to relate or feeling like they didn't like her, makes them "weird" or just plain too strange to want to be around. Give me a break. She and Bodie would make the perfect match....not a thought tumbling around in either empty head. And Demet......"I'm the new Bodie!"....say wha? First off, even seeing her or hearing her voice aggravates me anymore. She's like a tiny little demon. I'd give more credit to her for her "attitude", if what she spews half the time wasn't complete nonsense or out and out lies. Since it looks like it's going to be either Demet or Emma going this week, I'm a happy little BBAUS watcher. I agree about leaving the stirrers in the house...but I think we'll see a lot more stirring when a few of the more outrageous personalities are gone. I have a feeling a few people haven't come out of their shell quite yet. And, since intruder roomers abound, I'm not convinced we've met the biggest stirrer of all yet, either.

It's pretty funny how bothered Emma was by Nick saying she had "a stripper's body" when her nude pictures are plastered all over the internet. This eviction should be interesting if Demet goes, since this will be the first time a person not nominated by votes will be evicted. I wonder how much backlash Andrew and Hayley will get.

Ha! Scazy, YOU are such a stirrer! I love it. I can safely say that I don't like anyone in the house, and I've tried, lord knows I've tried. Now I'm just sitting, waiting for things to happen. It's strange not having an investment in who stays or goes but it's rather liberating as well. Do you all find it ironic that the "cool people", who harp so much on being there for the experience and who appear to deeply resent anyone they perceive as "playing the game", have absolutely no interest in actually growing or learning from the "experience"? They are not interested in new things, people that are different from themselves, or even in challenging themselves to take on things outside their comfort zones. It's pathetic and quite depressing as I think that attitude (I am who I am and I refuse to change or adjust no matter how it might be better for me and those around me) is strongly entrenched in the youth of today and it's one of the most difficult barriers I face in the work I do with troubled teens. I REALLY hope the intruders decimate the house dynamics so new ones have to be established. I'm quite ready for a change and since the people are clearly not going to do it themselves, we need some human dynamite thrown in to destroy everything so we can see what rises from the ashes.

Hi All!!! It's been a ton of time since I've been on the BB AUS sites. I was checking out the free stream on TEN and was trying to get set-up to download some of the episodes, etc. through torrents or IRC. Problem is, I can't remember anything about it! I haven't watched or done anything w. BBAUS since the season w. Christy and Hot Dogs. I remember having torrent downloaders, but can't remember which worked the best. I also had a program I used to watch the episodes, that I REALLY liked, but again, don't remember! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Teresa [ETA: I'm using XP as an operating system, if that makes a difference for programs to use, etc.]

Hi All!! I guess it's kind of like riding a horse, did a bit of searching around and remembered that it was BitLord that I liked for torrents and VLC Media Player ... so I downloaded and installed the latest for those and then downloaded the latest available "up late" and started watching it!! Wow, was it a rush to hear the music and see that thing swing around ... I was excited. Looks like a bunch of blondies so far, maybe some dark headed intruders later in the season? Don't know anyone's names yet and am still needing info for the IRC stuff and how to download off USENET! I'll be waiting for your wise words! You guys know this stuff forwards and backwards! Thanks in Advance!! Teresa

So Andrew saved Thomas,Emma and Zoran with his pick of Demet to be evicted. I wonder if they will be grateful.

SO glad she's gone, and from reading the OS Diary, looks like she won't be able to just remove someone and put someone up in their place -- she had to give BB a list of who she would want to Save and Nominate in order, BB tallies the points and come nomination night depending on the tally points that's how it'll work. I still say people will go for Andrew and Hayley now that neither has the power. So, I look for Andrew or Hayley (or both if they walk out together) to be the next evictee. I doubt Emma even knows what grateful means. I feel Thomas will be. Zoran......I think clearly feels that despite what Andrew and Hayley say, they don't like him, so I see NO graciousness coming from him. I can't say I blame him, really. Hayley and Andrew have now had TWO opportunities to save him and have chosen not to each time. I am interested in seeing if Gretel confronted Demet about the lies she told to everyone (regarding the night in the RR with Nick, Hayley and Andrew). I doubt she did as Gretel seems a little soft-boiled this year, but I still hope. WB Teresa!! Sorry no one got to your earlier post! Yes, VLC Media Player is a WONDERFUL little viewer. I actually use it to even watch DVDs on here now, LOL! I love it. I'm not much of a UseNet Pro, BUT I know how to DL from IRC. What you'll need to do is connect to an EFnet server (some won't let you on, but there are a few that will--I think I connect to the AS, Israel one each time and have no problems). From there, when the list of rooms pop up, you need to type in at the top #big-brother. That will take you to the channel with all the servers and bots to DL the shows. There are now 4-5 bots in there I believe, all with pretty good DL times to boot! Depending on the speed of your cable/DSL/dial-up/whichever, that is. Hope that helps, let me know if you need more info!!

hoo boy...BBBA says one of the intruders coming in is a cousin of one of the FNL hosts....nepotism abounds..(and I have to agree, they have no imagination...they tried to stack the deck in the Golden Key drawing with pretty blonds...and now? The intruders are pretty brunettes...This is why I don't mind for the most part the USBB casting, as they at least try to be a little more diverse...)

OH, I'm so excited to start watching! Thanks for the info about the IRC, CARE .... I remember that now, about having to search down the room. Glad to hear there are more bots now! Seems like I remember IRC being MUCH faster then downloading torrents. It took quite a long time to download "UP LATE" through the torrent! But like I said, it was SO worth it, I was EXCITED to hear the music and all! Just think how excited I'll be to download an eppy and see GRETAL! Ya'll will here my exicted squeal all over TVCLUBHOUSE!! LOL Glad to hear that it wasn't just me noticing all the blondes and that it had somehow become "season of the blonde" on BBAUS!! Now I'm off to find a free IRC program to download and will be off to efnet and the #big-brother room. I'll remember the tip about AS, Israel! Isn't VLC Media Player a great, no hassle viewer! I was thrilled to find it again and get it installed on this computer!! YIP YIP! I'm so excited about BBAUS, now I just need to learn the peeps names and I'll be good to go!! (whoops sorry, almost signed my post again, bad habit I don't need to get into, since I'll be posting up a storm in BBUS and that's a NO NO)

Tk4x5, I'm glad you have gotten things to work for you. I hope you enjoy it! OH -- I agree with your post as always, BUT.... I'm a bit intrigued. What is it about Rebecca, Jamie and Travis you're not keen on? I find Rebecca a little passive aggressive and wish she would just drop the Emma thing. I know it sucks to be ignored, but Rebecca would be in a better state of mind if she could just get past it. As for Jamie, I don't dislike him necessarily, I just haven't found much that interests me about him. I do like his loyalty, so far, to Rebecca, but I'd just like to see something more from him. I don't know what that "more" is, but I know I haven't seen it yet! Travis is completely uninspiring to me, but I could tolerate him until he started going along with the food stealing. I have an issue with taking things, even as a joke, and it bothers me that a father would do something like that when he knows his children will be watching. That's just me though, & I know others don't have issues with it. BTW...has anyone noticed on the boards this groundswell for keeping Emma in the house. I'm starting to read things like "she's not fake" and "she tells the housemates that she doesn't like how she really feels" and I'm getting a horrific flashback to Camilla last year. Hayley getting evicted will be like Anna getting evicted last year and soon Emma will feel even more invincible than Camilla.

big news...BB told Hayley and Andrew one of them was going to be tossed this week, and they had to choose which one would go. They decided Hayley would go. (Do I think she's actually going to go for good? I don't know....) Noms are Nick, Rebecca, and Andrew. Emma was up but was saved by Demet's list... Hayley will go Tuesday, the same day the new girls are coming in... and BBBA has a subtle hint on their homepage about how they think the season is going..

I am glad we are getting rid of Hayley. I just don't like her. So her leaving is good news for me. Actually I would be happy if this was a triple eviction. Andrew, Nick and Rebecca could all leave and I would not miss them. I hope the new intruders help liven up this season. I like Travis. But Susannah could leave since I find her boring.

So Wilson, are the odds that Andrew's being evicted this week? So BOTH of them could end up going? I don't mind Andrew so much, I'd really like Nick to leave as I don't have much invested in him. I don't mind Rebecca....she's an odd little girl but I think she has a genuine heart.

I was figuring that Rebecca would probably get bounced this week. I doubt that Andrew would go, maybe Nick. God grief I can't take another HG starting to think they are the queen, Camilla started out nice but turned into a nightmare. Sure don't want that again this year with Emma.

they haven't posted odds yet... and a lot of BBBA people are really ticked at this supposed "twist", not the fact that Hayley's going, but that they've lied about the reason (apparently, the LF watchers have known that Hayley has said she's going to be in someone's wedding in a couple of weeks which has been planned for a while-so it's been implied that there's been some collusion with the producers to milk the couple situation for as long as they could, then have her walk-or in this case, evicted in a "twist" that just so happened to occur the night before the intruders special...)

Interesting task... Force the gay guy to hug everyone in the house whenever he speaks to them. This is pretty funny. Zoran has transformed into the cruise director and Aleisha is Stuart Smalley

The intruders came in as ninjas serving for Aleisha's birthday party. Daniela and Laura seem to be getting along well with everyone. Andrew is easier to take without Hayley around. I really don't see that relationship lasting. Nick is not doing himself any help with his attitude. He is going to be booted for sure. What a jerk he is being. Nobody is good enough for him. They are now doing their New Year's Eve celebration as part of their task. It seems to be cheering alot of them up.

Jdude, the live feeds can be accessed from the OS....they do not have feeds like we do, just one main feed. You can visit www.bigbrother.com.au for more on that. It'll redirect you to the 3mobile site. They do have free feeds, but I believe they time out after 2 minutes and I'm not sure how many views you get per day. The premium feeds are $39.95 AUS (USD difference varies from day to day, depending on the currency exchange rate). Premium feeds are the way to go, as long as you don't mind the one view......but to be honest, even with the US feeds, we only get one or two views most of the time, lol. LG, I really like Andrew.....Hayley was the one that bugged the ever loving tick out of me most of the time. The crying and the "I know all" attitude got old. I really want Nick gone, I didn't like him from the first moment we saw him on the Golden Key special.....something about him rubbed me the wrong way and he hasn't won me over one bit since he entered the house. I had the same vibe from Demet when she entered the white room and the fact that she's gone makes me so happy I can't even see straight. Too bad she couldn't drag Ms. "I'm not being Nasty" with her.

I believe they dropped the premium price to $36 AUS, or perhaps even less by now. Frankly I don't think it's worth it this year, they made it too hard to deal with . You have to keep logging back in every 40 mins or so to restart the feed.

Flagg, I haven't had that much of a problem with the restart. If you restart a few seconds before it hits 20 minutes you can get a lot of restarts before it whacks out and forgets who you are.

I am getting more and more annoyed with Emma.I am not nasty but.... I don't whing about them but... On a side note I guess..apparently Emma's father has died and has requested she not be told...I think she is an adult and should be told and chose how to deal with it http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2007/05/24/1179601527665.html
