The other evicted hgs came to this conclusion long before Roddy left..read their exit interviews... It's ridiculous to not give these people credit for having brains without Roddy's help.

I can't fault the man for giving it a try. It's just sad. It would have been great if they would have been able to look past words and hurt feelings and just aknowledged who played the game the best. For as much as I didn't care for Roddys game while in the house, I've maintained that if he would have made it to the end I would have voted for him if I had been in the house. It's too bad he can't be a bigger person and aknowledge the one player that evicted him is indeed the best player. It's called being a good sport. But...

50,000 isn't too shabby!

" Is Roddy Coordinating A Loser's Campaign Against Dani? "

Those ex HGs each walked out of the house and went directly to the Dani Loser Campaign Train. Roddy is not the engineer of that train....Dani is. Roddy is just another one of the passengers.

Influencing in and out of the house is part of the game. How could BB control what is said outside the house? Unless they sequester them the entire time, there is nothing to be done. As far as I know, there aren't any rules being broken. (YIKES, I'm defending Roddy)

I'm so proud of you Twiggy...lol

Why is it so hard for people to make others accountable for their OWN actions. If Dani loses it's because of her behavior, not what someone says about her. SHE ALONE played her game and she will suffer the consequences. So am I to believe that if she loses the votes from the jury it's because someone else is to blame? Lori, Gerry, Tanya, Eric, Josh, Chirara and Amy (first time) were all gone before Roddy. From their exit interviews it sounded to me like they had already figured her out.

The game isn't over until the jury votes, so all's fair-da da da da etc. The winner will most probably be Lisa or Jason as we all pretty well acknowledge. So Mrs.D will come out with 50 grand less tax, and Amy ended up with 10 grand less tax plus a cruise and a two week holiday and was it Gerry who ended up with a vehicle (or am I thinking of another game?) Whatever. So the way I see it, there will be one big winner and some also rans who actually came out reasonably well. And other former HG's who didn't actually win anything--but had a unique experience and were well-paid for participating. As for Roddy campagning, So fri**in what! All part of the game Luv's. I say more power to you Roddy. But I agree with some other posters, D. will lose all by herself with no help from anyone.

Has anyone considered the possiblity that Roddy contacts the other HGs simply because he wants to talk to them? They were in that house together - they have something in common that is absolutely unique, and they are all on hold until next week. It's only natural that they want to contact each other!

I have been reading this board and watching the feeds from the very beginning of BB3 - I am amazed that some people seem to think that it all comes down to Roddy's manipulations!

See how wise it was of JASON to not nominate Roddy.

Roddy is pissed off at Danielle and probably neutral at Jason. He is hoping that Lisa will win. But initially he wanted Lisa or Jason to win.

If Jason had nominated Roddy- Roddy would have campaigned against Jason for sure.

Now that we all know that Danny is in the final
2 and may get the 2nd. prize of $50K minus taxes.
Let us not forget that she took out a loan to
supplement her salary while she was in the house.
She has to pay that back plus interest and she
has stated that she does not know if she will have
a job to go back to when she gets home. She
should of remembered this while she was in the
DR calling everybody names and back stabbing them
when they were out of sight. Roddy doesn't have
to twist anybody's arm..Miss Danny did it to her
self.

When Roddy was first in the house, he told Chiara he liked to be in 'control.' As Oprah has said, "When people tell you who they are...believe them."

Roddy still wants control of this game and this is his way of doing that.

I just wish that one of the spinless evicted creatures would tell him to go to H*ll when he calls them. Look at the mean things he said about Amy and now he's got her eating out of his hand again. It's a friggin love fest. YUK!

So, what exactly is Roddy doing/saying to the evicted HGs?? It's great to imagine these conversations Roddy is supposedly having, but is there any evidence at all that Roddy is trying to sway people?

And Cricket, Roddy said things TO Amy, Dani said things ABOUT Amy. There's no need to change her mind.

I think way back, Dani told someone that they had IRS problems.. as in owing money, so they may grab their portion first.


I did get a semi-sick feeling when Roddy was in the chat on amy's site, but.. she's an adult.

Interesting that this year they ask their questions on MONDAY and then deliberate.. but it does gove Jason his chance to advocate for Dani.. I'd love to see the deliberations.

Amy changed her mind about Dani after viewing 10 episodes and before talking to Roddy.

Roddy simply does not have the power that so many people think he does. If he did....he would be sitting in that house with Lisa instead of Dani.

Dani took a loan out to suppliment her loss income from not working? Sounds like she was putting her family into financial hardship. She doesn't even know if she has a job? Wow. Didn't know that.

Well, she can find a new job.. in fact, she only needs to remember six words and she's got herself a job.. "do you want to supersize that"?

Heard Danielle say tonight to Lisa that she'd pay off her debts and then put a deposit on a house, but would need her job back to pay for the house. Paying off her debts would cost her $30,000, because she'd have $20,000 for the house, she said. So even the second place would be a big step forward for her and her family, looks like. Not as great as the first place, but still worthwhile.

I don't think Roddy has anything to do with who the hgs will vote for. Dani did this all herself with the badmouthing.

Is Roddy Coordinating A Loser's Campaign Against Dani?

I don't think Roddy is actively telling people, Don't vote for Danielle. I also agree that the EHG came out of the house, saw the tapes, and were surprised and hurt by Dani.

However, I do think Roddy will and is working the HG's to keep them focused on said negative emotional feelings they have for Dani.

It's how he played the game in the house, and how he's playing the game outside of the house. And the game is still going, so I don't have a beef with it particularly.

So, yes, Dani is responsible for how the HG's feel. However, I do think Roddy's going to do what he can to make them hold on to that.

Is that fair? Dunno. Depends on ones own point of view.

Bernie, when I do the math (using ballpark figures) I get this:

50,000 gross
-17,000 (state and fed taxes)
33,000 net
-20,000 house down payment (your estimate)

13,000 net

The IRS takes their cut first before any prize winner sees a dime of the winnings. And if fact she does owe the IRS on back taxes she will have penalty and interest on that amount. She could wind up paying MOST of the money to the govt.

Scary situation. (or should I say scandalous?)

Someone said on a thread "in the house" that they
do not get the money in one lump sum. They get
paid over a period of time. This is scandalous!
Anybody else hear this?

Yeah, Jag, I read that post. Don't know if they get it at once or in payments over five years. If they get it over five years, Dani can kiss a house, etc. goodbye. Unless she has some other money saved up. One thing is FOR SURE. The everlovin' IRS will take their cut first and if she does owe back taxes they will take that right away too (and put a lien on her annuity winning payments if there is still more owed)so that they are paid the balance).

Reading the EW article on Amy, we find that Amy believes that Danu called Roddy a Devil so that she could take attention away from herself.

That sophisticated analysis came straight from Roddy. He has said it a couple of times since he has been out of the house.

Sophisticated analysis? That seems like something that a smart cookie like Amy could easily figure out on her own after watching 10 episodes of BB and seeing what Dani was doing and saying behind her back.

One could conceivably argue that that "sophisticated analysis" came straight from Roddy....but one can also argue that believing that Roddy was evil and couldn't be trusted was a "biased analysis" that came straight from Dani.

Amy is seeing the evidence from ALL sides now that she is out of the house.

In any case, Amy changed her own mind about Dani after viewing 10 tapes. Amy is not a "blank" person waiting to have her opinions formed for her and Roddy is not her Svengali.

Goddess,

Amy did that interview before even chatting with Roddy, so that kind of puts your idea out to pasture so to speak :) .
