I didn't celebrate because I just don't see her putting Josh up. If she was going to, she would have after overhearing him talking before the actual nominations. I think she'll play it safe with them and hold off on nominating Josh. It'll be done soon enough and I don't think she wants to be the "bad guy" to do it- she doesn't want the repercussions to fall on her. Someone will do it- he isn't loved but they're all too two-faced to really come out and say it. They're tiptoeing around their distrust of him.

My gut tells me that Gerry will not use the veto, and that everyone will fall in line to oust Marcellas. I can hear Julie Chen saying, "By a vote of nine to zero, Marcellas, you are banished from the Big Brother house."

What will Gerry do?! He just said he's painting his toe nails red... yuck! I don't know if you all have seen his ... never mind.

I'm thinking that Gerry won't use the veto. But if he does, he'll save Marcellas, and Jason will be nominated in his place. Tonya seems to think that putting Josh up is risky, and Lisa seems to be considering Jason and Amy. I don't really understand their reasoning about not wanting to put up Amy, but it sounds like Jason might be their pick.

Poor Jason...his name always comes up when people are talking about wanting to get someone evicted. Everyone seems to assume that "the other side" (Six Pack or the other five) won't vote for him. That's really going to do him in at some point.

i think that if gerry uses his veto to save marcellus, lisa will nominate josh. she led up to it in the kitchen earlier tonight, directly to josh.

i also think that IF she nominates josh, he will be evicted and then all alliances are off.

it would be very stupid for the alliance NOT to get rid of josh quickly, and these hgs are definitely NOT stupid.

Wow! Talk about the many faces of Gerry. If he's smart, he won't use the veto and put himself in an ackward postition with the "Six Pack" this early on in the game. The best thing for him to do is wait it out and hope that he gets HOH or veto power again after he's gone and made strong alliances with the remaining five. Too bad we can't fly a banner over the house telling him what to do. LOL! But, will he use it? I don't know and I don't know, from what I've been reading from LF, if Lori is all that safe after all, they are not saying nice things about her at all. Personally, I wished he'd use it and Lisa would put Josh up but I agree with Kaili about that whole thing. Oh well, find out tomorrow night huh? Wonder if they'll sensor the whole thing?

No... their conversations tonight indicate that they know Josh would have a good chance of being evicted if they put him up (and they seem unwilling to have any other Six Pack member on the block). It's either Amy or Jason. Amy in order to "save" Lori and Jason if they are willing to vote Lori out this week (which they seem unwilling to do based on previous promises to keep her in - Chiara thinks it's bad karma).

For some reason they feel like they have to come out ahead by making sure at least Lori is gone. So nominating Jason would be a sure bet that Lori would go. Plus they would believe that the others would think they aren't targeting any particular group. By staying off of Marcellus' buddy Amy. These people miss the point. Jason WILL NOT trust them from here on out and they've lost another pawn. He's not a stupid kid. As I said before. Gerry, Marc, Amy, with Lori talked about the fact that losing her was a possability. That wasn't the real issue. The "in crowds" real fear was not getting rid of Marcellus and not having control of the veto. Getting rid of Lori is not a victory for the in crowd and they know this. Keeping Marcellus was a defeat for the in crowd. No matter who goes up against Lori.

I'm sorry if someone did not post it on the live feeds but Eric did offer Josh as a nominee. It was sort of funny. At first Eric suggested they could nominate him but then took that away real fast and said Josh. Typical! The idea was that whoever they nominate it must come from the "in crowd" people so that it gives the impression that they are not targeting any particular set
of people.

I'm gonna cover this one last time..... Gerry will veto Marcellus tomorrow. It's all set. He never suggested to the in crowd that he wouldn't. He did however say to Marcellus today that he is safe and stop worrying and then they proceded to disguss who from the in crowd should go once they get HOH. This type of talk was never offerred to the in crowd. There is a difference in playing with someone and laying it out there. Now as for this insane thought that Gerry would be putting himself at risk if he does veto is laughable. The second he walked up to Lisa and said he might mix it up he blew it and he knows that he is a marked man no matter what. So are you stupid and all of a sudden pull back knowing it won't change a thing with these people? OR do you go to plan B? You go to plan B and take what would be a great last plunge for the next round. You don't hand a vicory to someone who is waiting to pop you off. Someone mentioned that Gerry isn't intelligent to figure it out. Come on what are you watching? The man is the smartest player in this game when it comes to analyzing this group. He knows the score.

One last time... Gerry is going to Veto Marcellus no matter what the consequences may be. He is a marked man no matter what. Go down in a blaze of glory or go out in a whimper.

Don't be so sure that all 5 would vote out Amy over Lori. Roddy does feel Lori is a threat. He thinks Amy is a fluff head and not a threat. I agree that they are stupid to put Josh up because he would lose. The whole point is that they lost control of the way they wanted this to go out. Going after Amy would also be bad Karma because they promised her in the original 6 a spot. Josh would want anyone but himself on the block. Remember he picked Lori because she pulled him out of that game for HOH and his thinking would be to go after Amy cause her pal is Marcellus. I'd hate to see Amy go, but keeping Lori is just as big a risk and even bigger cause she wants some Josh blood too.

I don't honestly think they care about the original six. Roddy in particular always blows it off (since he wasn't part of it). Roddy has been trying to convince them that Lori is a threat but none of the rest seem to agree at all. They keep saying she could never win a challenge (Roddy is the only one who brings up the luck factor). They could vote Lori out over Amy and if they did it would mean that Roddy has solidified himself as leader. Also, who knows how the house dynamics change if Amy and Lori are up. We don't yet know how Amy will react to a nomination.

Camel I've noticed that as well about Roddy. He really only gives Eric input about the nominations. He never goes to the girls and suggests things. I think this says volumes about his strategy. He's being honest in a sense. Since he would like to use the girls to get to the finals why pester them about who they should nominate. Use Erics voice to represent his and whatever they do he will go along with it as long as he gets to the end. I think Amy will be disappointed but never show it to them.
By the way, Josh just came to the girls room and asked Lisa for a Massage before he goes to bed. This to me suggests he is going to beg her to death not to nominate him and he will once again throw out someone elses name to take the fall. She just said to Tonya that she is waiting to hear who Eric says to nominate and he said he would tell her tomorrow. so it isn't her call.

Eric and Josh were just saying that it would be be stupid to put anyone in the alliance up as a plan B nominee in case Gerry uses the veto. Looks like they will for sure push to get Amy nom'ed.

Yeah.. the women have definitely taken a passive role (thus far). While the guys are trying to maintain relationships with the others in the house so they have an option of cutting the girls out earlier, the girls are really distancing themselves especially from the other women. They are getting way caught up in reactions to their behavior and such. I agree that Amy will likely take it all in stride. I just wonder about the rift widening between the women in the house.

Here's a thought... Who's to say that Lori still wouldn't go over Lori? It takes only one to descend out of their 5. I guess we will know for sure as wed nears. It is obvious to me that they will not suggest Josh. It will be up too Lisa and what benefits her without rocking the vote. If Amy goes it's gonna be sooooo boring. So much for that original 6.

I would definitely miss Amy so I hope she stays but I'm bracing myself for her eviction. If Amy continues her card playing ways it's possible Roddy could convince them of the fact that she's not a threat. Especially if Lori appears to be doing more scheming (particularly with Gerry) and/or if anything gets out about what she would do as HOH. I think Roddy has been trying to find out from Marcellas what Amy would do as HOH but I don't think he's found anything out so far.

Actually the women think that they are also reaching out to the "others". Lisa played cards today, like Eric, who told the others he taught them a game or two, played and then got out of there.

And the three in guys each have an in girl assigned to them to keep in line..

Roddy has Chiara
Eric has Lisa
Josh has Tonya

If Gerry doesn't veto it will greatly strengthen the alliance's position because the next person getting veto power will be less likely to use it.

Please, Gerry.. show us you have a spine in there somewhere.

Just heard some good news. Yes they will nominate Amy if Marc gets the veto but all the girls are going to boot Lori. She freaked on Lisa so it's done and she is out. Coolness because I was gonna be pissed if they booted Amy just cause she would be more of a threat. So I'm happy with Lori going.

Yes, I feel good about this turn of events. Lori could never figure out that she needs to keep her mouth shut. Can't say I would miss her at this point.

My dream situation is for Gerry to nominate that obnoxious Josh, thus destroying many alliances.
