Are there any reasonably neutral fans out there?
Wcv63 | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 12:56 pm     Chyang I like you a lot. |
Fruitbat | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 01:03 pm     I am neutralish. I have a preference for Lisa but I will be fine with any outcome. I do like everyone left. |
Dlurkrgrl | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 01:11 pm     I am neutral except for one point - I don't want Dani to win. I don't mind if Lisa gets voted out tonight as we may see a nice reunion with Eric, I would like to see a Jason / Lisa final 2 (in my dreams I know!!) |
Corriecat | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 01:30 pm     I'm neutral too. I just haven't found anyone I like as much as I did in BB1 and BB2. I guess I would like to see Lisa win because of the way she changed and started playing for real after Eric left. |
Wargod | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 01:50 pm     I'm pretty neutral. All three are still in the house, they've done something right. I don't like all the trash talking some of them have done (ok most the hg's.) No matter who wins, I won't be disappointed. They've given me a fun summer, something to do, and lots of laughs. I can admire the way they have played the GAME, but don't have to like the actions they showed in the house, if that makes sense. |
Gouraphik | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 02:08 pm     I can't say that I'm totally neutral (there are some HG's I dislike more than others), but I am non-partisan. My main focus was on the viability of a particular HG's strategy or on devising an effective strategy for a HG that was in serious danger. Sometimes I'd promote a strategy for Roddy, sometimes for Jason, sometimes for Danielle, etc. For me, it all depends on the situation. I do find it somewhat elucidating (and amusing) to observe the heated ideological war that's been going on regarding Danielle. It's just politics, really...sometimes it's way over the top, but that's life, ain't it? |
Ethelu | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:08 pm     I like all three remaining houseguests. I really believe that Dani has played the best. She is probably the smartest gamer in all three shows. This is a game, not a popularity contest, nor is it a game of honesty. The player who can deceive the most houseguests wins. The first Big Brother was played differently. We got to make the choice, so that was about likable people, but since last year, secrets and lies dominate. It amazes me when I hear people talk about honesty in this game. If you want to win, you have to be devious.....and Dani was that from the get go. She's also taught this woman a thing or two about holding your cards close, which is helping me in some of the office politics at work. I owe her a thank you. |
Kae | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:20 pm     I'm pretty neutral too. I don't really care who wins. I'm only speculating that the other house guests won't vote for Dani because of the bashing. I wouldn't put money on it, but that's what I think will happen. Actually, I think those alliances that she had with all the houseguests was brilliant. Unfortunately, I think the bashing is going to hurt her, but all in all I think she played very well. The best thing that Dani and Jason did was to keep their alliance a secret and they did a good job of that. And Lisa got right in the game after Eric left. It's still pretty exciting at this point to see what's going to happen next. You have to congratulate all three of them...For all three of them to get this far means they all did something right. From what I can tell none of them cheated or violated any rules, so each of them desearves to win. Wow, do you think I could have any more spelling errors. I really miss spell check. |
Beserkknight2 | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:30 pm     Every time I watch a reality show, I say to myself, ok, we're not going to get involved in this thing...just watch and enjoy. But I invariable do get involved. I don't see how y'all can remain neutral with such personalities clashing, bashing, etc. How do you do it?! |
Ladytex | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:32 pm     I was pretty neutral until I found myself only reading less than half the threads. I guess I have an "underdog" complex, and tend to root for them. Do I think they are perfect? No. Do I think they should be demonized? No. Do I like all of the houseguests? Yes. Do I care who wins? Not really. |
Punkin | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:36 pm     One thing I have learned reading these threads...one person's perception of what "reasonable" is--well, it's not necessarily the same as another's, lol. |
Jhezzie | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 05:47 pm     Because I wanted AMY to win, I have now become rather neutral. I don't really care who wins now, but I sure would like to see some 1st-year, Survivor type of voting, lol. |
Juju2bigdog | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 10:41 pm     I am rather neutral. Dani has played the hardest probably at great personal cost. Lisa is just so darn likeable. Jason is out by now, of course, but he was certainly a sweetheart. |
Tobor7 | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 11:01 pm     To me, to be a fan means taking a side. In the case of the show, neutral means "don't care" -- if I don't care, I don't watch. |
Lulu | Sunday, September 22, 2002 - 06:49 pm     I didn't want Marc to win it and I'm glad to see Lisa at the end but I never lost any sleep over it so I'm pretty neutral. I enjoyed the show but not like last year. I miss my Will!! |
Llkoolaid | Sunday, September 22, 2002 - 08:01 pm     Nah, I am not neutral, I like Dani and think she played the best game and should win. That doesn't mean I don't see her faults but just that I think overall she has played the best game and if I were on the jury I would give her the win. I like Lisa, she is a sweetheart. Did she play a good game, yes, she stands a darn good chance of winning, but again if I were on the jury I would make her second because I think she got where she is because of Danielle and Jason. First they alligned with her because they needed her vote to get rid of others and second because they made a mistake and kept her instead of Amy. If Lisa hadn't come over to their side she would have been gone right after Roddy. I think Danielle got to the end by good hard playing, and Lisa got there by luck and good playing at the end. They are both winners in my book. The winner of the 500 g's will be based upon what each jury member thinks is important to base their vote on, whether it be who played the best game, who was the nicest or whatever reason they come up with. It is in their hands. I don't think any of us know what they will do, only what we would do ourselves if we were in their position. |
Pesto | Sunday, September 22, 2002 - 08:27 pm     I am neutral...I mean I am neutered...I mean my cat is neutered...I mean, oh damn...ok I'm not fooling anyone And a big high five to Dlurkrgrl for stating: "I am neutral except for one point - I don't want Dani to win." That's a good one. I would like to second Llkoolaid's post, it's pretty much how I feel. I also think it is interesting to listen to differing opinions and why people feel the way they do. For me, I want one person to win, but this person is not even remotely my favorite in the house. And vice versa (i.e., people I like alot, but I wanted to see voted out.) I guess the word "neutral" is a pretty subjective a term. Go Lisa! Ahhh, I mean LisaD, my favorite "neutral" moderator. |
Jimmer | Sunday, September 22, 2002 - 08:34 pm     Everyone’s welcome to their own interpretation of “neutral” (which in itself is interesting), but as the person who originally posted this, what I really meant by reasonably neutral is being able to have positive and negative opinions about a given houseguest. For example, I can find some positives about every one of the houseguests and also some negatives. However, many posters can’t seem to find anything positive at all to say about certain houseguests. I guess what I really meant by neutral was not being at the extremes. There seems to be an extreme polarity of view over a couple of the houseguests. For those at the extreme ends of each point of view, please do not consider this to be a criticism. I absolutely love to debate issues and I really appreciate your enthusiasm in defending or critiquing the players (as long as we avoid personal attacks on each other). I love the humour too by the way (that was a weakness of this year's show - not enough humour). |
Oregonfire | Sunday, September 22, 2002 - 08:37 pm     I guess a more accurate term would be "moderate," instead of "neutral," but I hear you, Jimmer. I got your intent and it made sense to me. |
Pesto | Sunday, September 22, 2002 - 08:41 pm     Jimmer, I think this is an interesting thread, and I think the way you worded the title as "reasonably neutral" shows real insight. It made me chuckle because you REALLY REALLY needed to include that word "reasonably"... The thread also serves to bridge the gap between those of us who are "reasonably" radical in our thoughts. There is never enough of those types of threads. Thanks again. |
