Kaili | Monday, July 15, 2002 - 10:51 pm     I haven't figured that one completely out yet! Except that evictions are live on Thursdays. |
Beagle | Monday, July 15, 2002 - 10:59 pm     Can anyone explain the "Veto Power" to me? How is it recieved and how and when is it used. This may be a very simple question, but I just got home from holidays and am trying to catch up. |
Kaili | Monday, July 15, 2002 - 11:02 pm     Beagle- They have a competition for it- the winner has the option to veto one of the nominations. That person is then saved. The HOH then must immediately nominate a new person. The veto winner cannot be nominated at this point. If the veto winner is one of the nominated, they can only veto the other nominee's nomination- not their own. Also, they are not required to use this power. It is their chouce to do so. |
Retired | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 05:39 am     Good thread Mygetaway. I've been wondering about something & this may sound stupid but here goes. We know the HGs do their own laundry & the towels outside in the wringer washer & they have the dryer. But what about the sheets? Don't think I've ever heard the HGs talk about washing or changing them. Do the HGs wash them? Did they get extras? With all the bed hopping (and Lori's drool) I sure hope someone is washing them. They've been in there for at least 10 days now. Anybody know?? Thanks. |
Soonergal | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 06:47 am     Okay, don't have the feeds but have read the posts. Has Lori actually been voted out, or is that just conjecture? When did/does the voting take place? Thanks |
Demeter | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 06:50 am     Retired-- I haven't seen them wash sheets yet, but some may have. Yesterday Gerry was talking about he was going to need to wash his sheets pretty soon because it's been about a week. |
Sarcastic | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 06:52 am     does anyone know what is going on Wednesday ? is Gerry suppose to decide if he is going to use his 'veto' card ? any other things happening that you are aware of ? then about thursday: I know eviction happens thursday (live) but afterwards do they do the food challenge and find a new HOH ? |
Maris | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 07:00 am     Gerry used the veto to save Marcellas. Amy was nominated by Lisa. Other than that you havent missed anything besides whipped cream bikinis and peanut butter bikinis. |
Soonergal | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 07:09 am     LOL - Thank you, Maris! |
Ryn | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 07:45 am     Meggie.... its hard to get a handle on the schedule yet as they are doing in 2 weeks what they will normally do in one (since evictions will now be once a week.) Basic schedule that I have picked up inthe house.... Eviction vote - probably Wednesday AM (at least last year I recall we all could tell who was evicted cause the cameras would ignore them sice they would be gone). Eviction Thursday - immediatly after is HoH (which was blacked out last year but we still know right after who got it). Nominations - probably Friday since they will be shown on Saturday. Veto challenge was friday last week, not sure - might be friday after noms this week - but just as easily could be saturday. Just depends on what they are planning on showing Saturday's Saturday's show could in theory show reaction to the eviction, HoH competition, Nominations, and Veto Challenge Comp. Thats a lot to show in an hour. My guess is they will show veto challenge & the result of the veto (if any) on Wednesdays unlike this week where they showed the challenge on Saturday. Veto challenge (where the person does/doesn't use it) - I think that will stay on Mondays - they have their weekly house meeting on Mondays - so My guess is thats when it will be. No clue on the food challenge yet, they have not had one that I know of since the show went live. Luxury challenge - no clue, will be easier to see if there is any pattern to them in a week or two. |
Demeter | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 07:59 am     Ryn, they did the food challenge last week on Wednesday and showed in on air on Saturday. The HGs have been guessing it will be Wednesday again this week. Last year the food challenges were on Friday and the Luxury challenges on Saturday. The veto challenge has changed the order of things a bit. I'm wondering when they are going to toughen things up a bit...like yesterday, Josh did his usual acting out (at least this time I think he was playing) when the basketball went over the wall...BB is giving them another basketball right away, why? Wouldn't it be more peer pressure if they lost the opportunity to have the ball? It seems like BB is so fascinated with all the dumb sex antics, that they concentrate on that. I know it's early, but they set the precedence early on. It looks like we have another year of pampered houseguests. |
Ryn | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 08:19 am     They are putting up a fence to keep things like that in this AM I think - or they have already. Here is a basic schedule & voting results. ../13474/1039990.html I will put in the food comp for wed (for now). thanks!! |
Retired | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 09:03 am     Thanks Demeter! It's funny...they get all upset about someone not washing hands after using WC but think nothing of sleeping on 10 day old sheets! |
Marysafan | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 09:10 am     I think I recall that Tonya washed her sheets the other day. I think Lori did hers last night. Now Gerry is doing his. There has been a lot shared beds. So not everyone has sheets that need to be washed. |
Texastillie | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 10:40 am     Thanks for the banner info. This is a great thread! Lots of great questions = lots of great information. |
Retired | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 11:32 am     Thanks Mary! Don't have the feeds & didn't remember reading about it. Great thread to get these questions answered. |
Sobaditsgood | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 11:46 am     Putting this here, not wanting to start a new thread for something that's probably been covered and I missed it - Which HG's smoke? I have only seen two tv episodes and can't recall seeing any of them smoking but surely they didn't pick a houseful of nonsmokers, did they? |
Earthkitten | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 11:47 am     Can someone fill me in on.... why none of the other five in the six-pack realize that Josh is evil? Especially Eric & Roddy!?? |
Marysafan | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 11:51 am     I know for sure Lori smokes. I think Eric and Roddy and were smoking cigars. |
Julieboo | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 12:35 pm     Cool chart Ryn! That'll be good to look at as the weeks go by. (Does Sponge Bob know he has competition in the chart making area?) |
Crazykids | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 12:44 pm     New Topic... I just have a question...when talking about Tonya I have heard the name David...is that her boyfriend or something? just curious!? |
Bob2112 | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 12:45 pm     Answer To Julieboo | No! I didn't know! |

Webkitty | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 01:34 pm     Mygetaway, thanks for starting this tread. As someone who can't get the live feeds, I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions as the season goes on and won't always want to break into a thread that is going a million miles an hour to ask a question My question for right now, are the vines and plants in the backyard real or fake? The camera jerks around so much on the show I can never get a good look at things. Also, what is this 4000.00 cat (bengal?) that is being discussed in other threads that Tonya has? I'm a cat fancier, but have always "rescued" mine, so don't know why a cat would cost that much? |
Meggieprice | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 01:35 pm     Thanks Ryn- great chart! And thank you in general for your awesome job of moderating. |
Ryn | Tuesday, July 16, 2002 - 01:38 pm     Only Q I can answer is the one about smoking... Roddy brought in cigars and has shared them with several HGs though Eric is the other person that seems to smoke them the most. Lori is the only non-cigar smoker. |
