Ahhh it starts just like last year the house is divided up between the crowd that thinks they are cool and the others. Uck I hate that. They were talking about how Gerry is probably feeling outclassed (I think that was the word used). I could just gag on that!! I hope the "others" wise up and get rid of the "in crowd".

Me too Missy but unless Gerry gets wind of their treachery I don't see it happening. To bad we won't have any banners this year. I would send one to Gerry and the rest warning them.

Maybe the problem is that too many of them think that they're part of the "in" crowd to rebel, ya know? A possible rebellion would include: Marcellas, Amy, Lori, Daniele, Gerry, and Jason. If one of them gets voted off, then that breaks up a possible alliance, because the in crowd/Body Nazis have six.

Then again, there is that veto thing. I'm going to have to see it in action to really understand it.

Unfortunately at this point Gerry is part of the 6 pack and not Tonya. She just doesn't know it.

Flores, does anyone actually know for a fact we don't have banners? Far as I can tell there were some idle threats that the HG's coulnd't look (yeah right), but I've seen them quitely look at every plane that goes by. So makes me wonder if they were just ordered not to talk about them. I may be opening a kettle of worms, but has anyone called and asked if they are taking orders for banners??

I'm not trying to reopen the banner debate, just wondering if your post is accurate :)

It is my understanding the powers that be a have spotters posted a mile out from the house in all directions. If an when someone attempts to fly a banner they will let the house know that all HGs need to be inside under lockdown and if anyone attempts to look out the window the penalty is eviction.

So any looking up now means nothing because they won't be outside when the banner goes over the house.

I still think this sounds like rumors AS put out to stop the banners. Wonder if the banner company(s) have tried flying one to see. That would be common sense. If they were gonna hire that many people (even lowly interns) to sit out all day and watch they would have just paid off the banner company for the season. Something here doesn't add up. Maybe I should start a banner conspiracy thread :)

That reminds me, whatever happened to the conspiracy theory guy here???

Haven't seen Ewing(Mr. Consiracy) yet this year. As for the banner stuff that is just what was reported in the news. Funny a few minutes ago I thought I heard a banner plane but nothing happened and they didn't even look so I would think it wasn't one it just sounded like it.

THAT'S HIM...Ewing!

And I'm telling you, as someone who has done PR for more years than I would care to publicly admit, this reeks of misinformation. I'm not too hot under the collar about it cause so far there's no on in that house that is making me want to line up behind them and cheer. So far Jason seems to be the only one with potential to make me do that....time will tell.

Ewing seemed to disappear post-9/11. He did some heavy reporting that day, as he was in NYC. I wonder where he is?

I think we need to put out some "Ewing bait," you know, post some silly, far-fetched conspiracy theories and see if he comes out of the woodwork to say, "No, you are a dolt. This is REALLY what's going on..." :)

Man do I hope that the "cool" people do form a group this year like last. The problem last year was that they only had four people maybe five in their group, and one got thrown out for doing something with a knife. I just hope the cool people win out this year so that the final weeks of the show are fun to watch.

If some how they do eliminate the banners from influencing the game then maybe the cool people can win out. I hate the banners, and hope they do have ways of keeping them from the HG's, but it seems to me that if you fly one while they are doing a challenge outside that there might not be a way to get all the HG's inside before the plane gets there.

funny, but to me as soon as people pronounce themselves as "cool" they become the antithesis of it.

The problem is that many of the people who aren't in the "in crowd" (aka the New Chilltown :)) don't even realize it. Amy and Marcellas probably do, but Lori and Danielle feel they're part of the mothers' alliance, and that they're still close to everyone else. Jason and Gerry don't seem to realize this "in crowd" exists at all. Amy and Marcellas may have some clue, but they probably haven't exactly figured out who is in which group.

I don't see the nominations changing, so I'm thinking that the people not in the alliance are going to be taken out one by one. Things might be shaken up a little, but I don't see the whole thing falling apart entirely. :(

Two possible "in crowd" members who could switch up, in my opinion, are Josh and Tonya. They could just as easily be replaced with Jason and another "out crowd" member in the weeks to come.

So far Josh's only claim to fame is that he was stuck in the tree with Lisa that first night, so he bonded with her in a way that he might not have normally. And Tonya's "five kids" status may be an excuse to vote her out (someone else said that elsewhere--props to you) Hmm...we'll see...

As I click thru the live feeds I want to scream at the houseguests to wake up and catch the in crowd (new chilltown), scheming!! I guess no matter what there will always be scheming, but there is just something so annoying about a group of people who think they are the more attractive and cooler. Its as though they are saying we have it all, so of course its only natural that we get this too.

The original 6 were the first 6 off the tree:
Amy, Gerry, Lisa, Josh, Eric and Chiara

Roddy and Tonya were the 2nd to last group off the tree and the alliance had already been made by Josh.

Since then the six according to Eric last night are: Eric, Roddy, Tonya, Lisa, Chiara and I quote Eric "maybe Josh"

Late last night the six talked about stringing on Amy and Gerry as additional votes to manipulate. Amy and Gerry may or may not have caught on to the switch of the 6.

Well, I for one think the "sexy six" alliance is disgusting to watch. They are abosolutely ridiculous, talking about Gerry wanting so badly to fit in to their group. He doesn't want to BE them, he wants to win. They are allowing their egos to overrun with feelings of superiority.

How immature are they? Eric wants to vote Danielle off because she made a comment in the hot tub. They are so childish. They want someone out for the slightest comment...They have to swear on their mothers life just to prove they're not lying...And they have to call people names to try and be funny.

These people suck. But, yes, I am still watching...

If Gerry hasn't caught on, he will. I believe Amy knows she's not really *in*. The original 6 seemed doomed anyway. They just happened to be the first 6 down but personality wise, I didn't see how that could last. The 6 Eric named make more sense.

I listened to the conversation in the HOH room last night instigated by Eric and the fab 6 are definitely Eric, Roddy, Chiara, Lisa, Tonya, and yes Josh. All were present durring this talk except Roddy and Josh.

If the nominations stay as they are (Lori/Marcellus). They will be voting off Lori. They think Marcellus is a "swell" guy now because he yucks it up with them. I guess he deserves to stay now because he is an ok guy. If someone gets the veto they will eliminate Marcellus and add Gerry and vote out Gerry. As Eric said... Roddy doesn't like Gerry and doesn't trust him. This group of 6 has played it perfectly so that the other 6 are oblivious to this control in voting. No one would question Marcellus staying over both Lori or Gerry. They admitted they think Josh is pshyco but they need his vote right now. I believe both Eric and Roddy see Josh as an important player in this game and I will explain that later on.

There was no mention of what order they would eliminate people but this aliance is going to work out. There is no way it won't. This is not Chill town. These people are suave and for the most part friendly enough to get away with this plan. When it gets to the final 6 they may have switched Josh with either Amy or Danielle or even Marcellus but it would only be because one of the women has gotten sick of Josh. However, Eric and Roddy will continue to keep Josh in for their own benefit for as long as they can get away with it. Remember this doesn't end at 6..

Once they are at 6 the game really begins and that is when we will see them as they really are. Thus comes my Josh factor. My belief is that the guys are going to take Josh all the way to the finals with them as their sucker to use believing that they could each beat him if they were in the final 2 with Josh. We all know what happens in that scenario. Perhaps they really do think their sweetness will give them the prize over Josh.

I have no prob with this power of 6 except for the smug reasons behind forming it. "They are the pretty Ones" as Eric put it. And Chiara added, "It's what America would want to see" Hahahaha Same personality types every year! By the way, Jason will go pretty soon because the guys will feel threatned by him and his niceness. Don't forget they all want to be the winner.

Personally I like these 6 but sorta wish Jason or Amy would be granted that 6th position to give them a little bit more time in the house. Other than that I'm cool with it.

Sorry C1mag but everything changed when Eric got out to Josh and Roddy the guys who are really running the alliance. They definitely want Marcellas out because he is a bigger threat to the 6 pack than Lori. And eventhought Tonya doesn't know it she is not part of the 6 pack. I watched all of it last night. they went to bed just a little before 4:00AM BBT and there were three more whole conversations that happened after the one in HOH.

C1mag, it sounds to me that you've got it right, though I hope for a major upset because it's ho-hum to know who's going to dominate for the next 10 weeks.

Maybe we devoted viewers have gotten too savvy for BB? I hope not!

Thanks for bringing me up to date Flores. I kicked it at about 1 in the morning. So you are saying that although my scenario of the girls being in this may be off, the guys are still going to run this thing using Josh all the way to the final 3? If this is true then this game is still going to be fun.
