C1mag | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 03:08 am     Anyone else get the impression that although Josh went and tried to relay that Marcellus and Gerry want the couples split up that the guys aren't putting to much of a stink up about it? Makes you wonder if King Roddy and Prince Eric are looking for someone to eliminate the girls. What do you think? |
Twiggyish | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:09 am     I think you might have a point with Roddy.. I'm not so sure about Eric. |
Missy2 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:20 am     I definitely think Roddy wants Chiara out. |
Bmh | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:24 am     I disagree..Roddy seems like he is a little annoyed with Chiara..but he sticks by his word and he said he wants to go to the final four with Chiara,Lisa,and Roddy..Roddy wants Josh out now..besides if he even considered trying to get Chiara out of the house..he would look like the biggest jerk..because everybody would say he was leading her on..if he turns on Chiara now there is no chance he will win...but from watching the LF's he wants Josh out not Chiara |
Mizinvancouver | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:26 am     Maybe Roddy kept Josh around so he would later be the one to nominate Chiara and Lisa?!! I mean later in the game, someones got to go whether they like it or not. |
Minnyace01 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:28 am     Missy2 - I'll leave it like this - not a chance in h*ll. He has fallen just as hard for C as she has for him. He just expresses it a little differently. He has a very sarcastic sense of humor that is difficult to pick up on. Just watch how he holds her right after their pillow talk each night. To me, it's a sure sign of where he's at with her. |
Tootseug | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:29 am     Bmh. Your are right. Roddy would look like a jerk if he turned on Chiara now. That is precisely why he is encouraging Chiara to spend time with Jason. That way she breaks it off with him, and he doesn't have to get his hands dirty. This is all explained in the thread "It would appear to me". |
Misschris | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:37 am     Didn't Roddy say yesterday that he would like to see Chiara, Jason and himself in the final 3? Coulda sworn i read this in the live feeds. he was talking to KiKi |
Crossfire | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:41 am     That would make sense given who he was talking to though. I don't think he would say that to Eric, it would be another mix. Which is true? It's more complicated than the last thing you hear him say. It's a puzzle. All one can really be sure of, it that he wants himself to be last standing. |
Lauram | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:45 am     geez imagine the fireworks if someone put up Chiara vs. Lisa. Then Roddy and Lisa would have to make some tough decisions. Could be a great week |
Earthmother | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 09:55 am     Misschris this sounds to me like a conversation I heard last year when Hardy said to Nicole "I want it to be you, me and Bunky at the end!" Until he woke up and realized that Bunky could beat both of them at the end. So he kept Will and up jumps the devil!!! Hardy walks with nothing to show for his hard work...hahahahaha |
Orwellsvision | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 10:02 am     If I were in the house, I think my main objective would be to try to break up the couples also. Those powers of two can be mighty dangerous -- which is, I think, the reason why Roddy chose to nominate Marcellus and Amy... |
Jello | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 01:38 pm     I am looking forward to the episode where Roddy has to choose between Eric and Chiara. |
Cute1073 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 01:41 pm     i just can't keep what Roddy says to people straight anymore....one minute he looks like he's gonna stay with chiara till the end, and the next he looks like he'd prefer to have her out of the game (notice my wording...i didn't say break up with her...I think his problems with her mostly extend to how she plays the game) it will be interesting to see who he is loyal to in the end! |
Keiffer | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 01:49 pm     I think the couples bring more attnetion to themselves because of the hook up nature of them being together, but I don' think that makes them the strongest group. If Danny, Jason, Marcellas, and Gerry each decide that they are going to be a group and work together in an attempt to rid the house of the remaining HG's then why would their group of 4 be any less important to break up than lisa, chiara, roddy, and eric? It really could come down to who wins this next HOH to decide which group of 4 gets control. |
Cute1073 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 01:51 pm     yes hoh becomes very key to staying in this game at this point. Remember last year how important it was! Although, even tho Hardy won so many times, he still didn't end up winning anything. I think it is more important that your fellow alliance memebers get Hoh but if you personally (speaking as if I were a houseguest) get it, it puts more of a target on your back. |
Keiffer | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 01:59 pm     Speaking of getting HoH I am not sure I like the rule that you can't win two weeks in a row. In Survivor if you win immunity you win it. Of course their challenges are bit more intense, and not just blind luck like BB's seem to be. For the challenge this week you have to think that a non-couple person is going to win just because of past performance, and they are outnumbered. |
Cute1073 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:10 pm     was that a rule last year too? I seem to remember Hardy having it a lot but can't remember if he had it two weeks in a row or not. |
Lilacs04 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:26 pm     Cute: It was a rule last year as well. Hardy did win twice but not consecutively. I believe Kent won the week after Hardy won the first time. Minny: I'm not saying Roddy is playing Chia but there's NO way he's as into her as she's into him. She's way too emotional (he has said as much) and her self image is too precarious for him to really feel as much as she does. But, can I say, I think it's REALLY odd that people "fall in love" after 2 weeks, jeez! |
Cute1073 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:30 pm     yes...it tells you how intense the house is for them. Remember what Will said last year? That 6 weeks together in the house is really like dating for a year...or something like that The house becomes their whole world so i can see how things get blown out of proportion My take on the emotional thing is that he just thinks she's too emotional for the game...not for him. My opinion is that Roddy does take the fact that the house is stressful into consideration when Chiara starts acting the way she is. My opinion may be skewed however due to the fact that i like her ;) |
Sonia | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:50 pm     Yes Cute1073, I remember a Will's print interview where he answered a question "How can you pretend to love a person just after 3 weeks you met her?" And he answer than be always together 24/7 during 3 weeks is like to date somebody during a year. I don't know if he still with Shannon, but he said it. |
Wcv63 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:56 pm     Okay this is a first for me. I'm going to defend Roddy and Chiara as a couple. Last night they were having some pillow talk. Very light, very intimate (not sexual but emotionally close) and Roddy was joking with Chiara. He was saying that his grandmother (I think it was his grandmother) would ask him about her. What do you do with her? He said he would say, "Well we sometimes go outside. Then sometimes we go inside. So we've had like two dates. Outside and inside." It was funny and came across as sincere (mind you I don't like Roddy but he didn't seem to have his "player" face on at the time). Just prior to that Josh had been in the room and they were playing a game where they went around saying one good thing about living with them and then one bad thing about living with them. It was interesting and Roddy and Chiara did seem to have a lot in common. |
Cute1073 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:57 pm     I think boogie was saying that too.....Yes...and it was sooo true in their realtionships too...they lasted so long outside of the house lol (ok, ok we don't know for sure about shannon and will) Wvc...thats how I feel too. Call it intuition or whatever...Roddy just strikes me as sincere when he is alone with Chiara talking about how he feels about her. I just think he gets frustrated with the way she plays the game (too emotional). Also, I think he enjoys the debates he has with her (most of the time) He strikes me as someone who likes to flex his brain, and show off his verbal skills...debates and arguments are perfect arenas for doing just that |
Joan | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 03:05 pm     Roddy and Chiara kind of remind me of Kerri and Kyle on the Real World, especially now that Roddy is sort of hinting that she annoys him from time to time. |
Goddessatlaw | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 03:10 pm     I think this group would be much more interesting and much more focused on the game without Chiara in it. She requires way too much attention and energy. |
