Too cool - Jason explains to them all about us :
Archive through August 05, 2002
Whit4you | Sunday, August 04, 2002 - 10:59 pm     Jason's been telling them all the details about the web viewers - about the FOTH cam (even called it that lol) he talks about the live feed posters (didnt call them that) but exlains that there are people who jot down everything that happens - and he goes into total detail about how - we dont get to see the competitions but we figure it out by hearing the houseguest talking and within a few hours we know everthing that BB didn't let us see... 0Jason - ya like they have a hay day like one night you guys are in the bed talking and giggling and there's like this whole discussion - what possibly happened. He tells them about the web hate sites like Kill-will.com They say "oh great" They are very concerned about the hate sites. Jason - the people who wanted to be on the show and didnt make it hate our guts.... ANyhow this convo is really cool it's like 'one of us' being in the house - he said he read these sites (didnt name one specifically) I think Jason is fibbing though...he said he'd watch the players for about 30 min a day and then read these sites a little... um he knows way to much to be that casual a viewer - knows all the lingo we use and so on lol I have to wonder - if Jason is keeping the fact that he was totally into last years show for strategy reasons |
Scorpiomoon | Sunday, August 04, 2002 - 11:03 pm     For a guy who says he only checked in on the feeds once in a while (trying to sound casual about his interest in BB), Jason sure knows a TON about us and the BB presence on the Web. I do think it is endearing that someone who knew about the show, and liked it, ended up in the house. I'm always annoyed when these people don't have a clue about past seasons--how can fullly appreciate being there? |
Wcv63 | Sunday, August 04, 2002 - 11:07 pm     Yet another reason to pull for Jason...as if I needed another one! It does seem as "one of us" is in there. I think he probably had every intention of just "checking in" and spending 30 minutes with BB (ummmm...that sounds soooo familiar!) but it sure does sound as if he is well-versed in every aspect of the internet presence. Hey Ryn or other Mod! Is there any way to check the last year's user list to see if Jason Guy was registered here? Pleeeeeeaaaaaasssssseeeee! |
Lawyerman | Sunday, August 04, 2002 - 11:07 pm     Jason has been giving out hints of his knowledge every now and then since week one, but he CLEARLY knows more about BB and BB net culture than he leads on to the other HG's. The fact that he is knowledgable about the web sites, BBlive.exe, FOTH, and BB history (he probably knows minute details of past BB's that he's not revealing) definitely gives him an advantage over the other HG's in this game. |
Whit4you | Sunday, August 04, 2002 - 11:16 pm     Well most definately I don't believe he's a causual viewer I'm really tired and he talked fast so no way to do a vertbatum LFP - but come on I know the casual viewers - and I know "US" and trust me he's not one of the casual viewers lol. I mean he went on in total detail using OUR lingo - but what's funny is he kept clearly saying "THEY" .."THEY"..."THEY" When I refer to us net viewers...I refer to US... not "THEY" - do you see what I mean? When I mention say to smoene at work that WE watch on the net and WE keep tabs on everything that goes on in the house and so on. Jason - continually referred to any and all aspect of the net viewers as "THEY" never once saying "WE" or "US" - which I find very interesting honestly. I have to wonder if he's so much one of us that he figures - that them NOT knowing how much we truely see and all the details of the net side of this is to his advantage. I'm intersted enough in my theory to go back when I have time and see if his story has changed at all over the past two weeks as to how much he knows about the net side of things. When he started using all our lingo I was like hmmm - why does he keep saying "THEY" as if he's not one of us.. I wish I had recorded that convo so those who didnt hear it could. It really was cool to hear one of US talking about us lol... not as cool as Kent mentioning this site specifically - but nobody else has as much inside knowledge it's fun to think he realizes how much we really do see while they don't... he gave them a tad more of an idea tonight though. He said - you know like when you guys cover your mikes and whisper you think they can't hear you? There are 9 other mikes in the room! LOL Anyhow maybe it's not part of his strategy maybe he's truely one of us addicts and just aint willing to admit it (last year I would never admit to an 'outsider' how much time I really spent here LOL And he'd be doing (as he's fully aware) infront of a huge huge audience LOL. I'll let you know what I dig up though on if his story and if it's changing LOL |
Lurknomore | Sunday, August 04, 2002 - 11:20 pm     Actually I personally found what Jason said better than Kent. For some reason I just like the idea of thinking he was on the other side of a keyboard here better than knowing that Kent was I'm trying to think who I liked here last year that is MIA this year. Hmmmmmmm. Of course he could have just lurked. How boring. Why would anyone ever do that hehe |
Cyn | Sunday, August 04, 2002 - 11:20 pm     did you happen to notice roddy's concered forehead during this? i loved it! |
Snee | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 12:29 am     i hope roddy was concerned about some things he's said and not that jason knows enough to be dangerous in the game! clearly (!) jason spent some time on bb sites. wouldn't it be cool if one of them were this one? regardless, jason is one of US. he was one of my favourites before this little talk, but he might be edging out marcellas for number one now! hehe whit, another poster mentioned the 'us' thing. she said one day she told her boyfriend/husband that 'we think...' whatever about the show and he wondered who the heck 'we' are! i say that all the time too. my friends and family know exactly who 'we' are. |
Cyn | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 12:47 am     snee, oh no, i was thinking that he was worried cause the other HGs might get to see his behind the scene scheming when they get out. OMGosh, didn't think about him thinking about jason knowing too much. |
Snee | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 12:56 am     i sure hope it's not the case, cyn! |
Oregonfire | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 01:02 am     He certainly was knowledgeable, the little lurker! I kept on expecting him to say "And then they cut to FOTH" when he was talking about the front door cam. |
Gail | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 05:11 am     It kind of makes you wonder which board he spent a lot of time on last year - there are three that I know of that have really good updates, including our board. Chances are, he spent time on one or two of them at least. It is great to have someone in the house that knows what the game is about for the internet viewers. |
Fabnsab | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 05:52 am     Hey, let's think of it this way. If he spent time on BB boards last year, he is almost a definite to come after and update us because he knows how we all care! Woohoo, could we be so lucky for him to come chat with us? |
Reader234 | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 06:18 am     LOL!! Interesting indeed! My thought tho on his lingo of "they" instead of "we" is more due to the fact that since he is 'inside' the house his 'we' now includes the hg, not a poster/internet viewer. Just a thought, us, we, them... lol |
Amac | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 06:27 am     "He tells them about the web hate sites like Kill-will.com "They say 'oh great' "They are very concerned about the hate sites." I don't blame them for that. (As far as I know, only bahishjosh.com is a "hate" site.) I know -- if you can't stand the heat don't go in the kitchen -- but I wonder how, say, Chiara will react when/if she reads all the bashing she's received here. |
Twinkle | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 06:28 am     A friend of Jason's posted here when the show started. If she knew about TVCH, don't you think there's a good chance he does too? Because all the comments about Jason were so positive, I bet she'll encourage him to drop by. It's seemed like the really knowledgeable folks who have applied to be on BB, and who have posted here and other boards, never made it. I've wondered if knowing too much is an automatic basis for rejection. Some of the other hgs claimed to know all about BB, but it sounds like they may have only watched the show. Finding out that Jason is one of us makes me like him even more  |
Cinder | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 06:53 am     And they only watched the show because they were given tapes. |
Lurknomore | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 08:24 am     Know what this made me wonder? Jason really didn't let on to the group how much he knew about BB in the beginning, beyond a few private conversations with Dani and I think Marcellas. I wonder if he ever admitted he was one of us when applying or if he just stayed quiet about that too. Smart boy our Jason is. Shows you can be a good person and still play intelligently. If he has been around as much as it seems he has on here, then he would know Arnie and crew despise us "internet freaks," and he would have downplayed it. Hey what did happen to Jason's friend? I forgot she was here in the beginning. And wasn't his brother briefly? I feel like I'm playing the kids game if they are here...come out come out wherever you are Please! We'll all play nice with you...we like Jason lol |
Konamouse | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 08:46 am     Last night, while Jason was explaining the Internet viewers to the HG, he told them that he purposefully did NOT let on to the producers that he was such a fan of the show. |
Twinkle | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 08:46 am     I know what ya mean, Lurk. Where arrrrrre you, Luvbb? She was a fairly consistant poster at first. However, some of the fine folks here can be brutally honest at times and if I knew a hg, no matter how nice they were, I might be inclined to stay away after the show started. Hmmmm.I don't remember his brother posting. |
Oregonfire | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 09:00 am     Oh no, Lurk, I think they saw what happened to Merritt! They're not falling for that one. We'll be nice *snap* crunch crunch gulp. Ahh, tasty meal! |
Jane_Bond | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 09:00 am     I remember that BB used the fact that someone was a big fan of the show in their publicity. I remember distinctly (tho I'm not sure if it was in the initial show when they intro'd all the players or in another media vehicle) that they said that there were "students of BB" in the house whose intimate knowledge of how the game is/was played could prove to be a big threat to other players. They definately didn't mention that it was Jason, tho. In fact, I was wondering if it was Josh and that Josh was consciously playing the Will role: trying to scheme everyone in sight and lie to them all and be generally annoying butsqueaking through every time. |
Lurknomore | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 09:03 am     Really Kona I missed that. Of course that chat happened when Roddy was droning on about something and I find I just stop listening without even realizing it, so maybe my wittle ears didn't perk up soon enough. Yeah, Twinkle, but we are only "brutally honest" about those we can't stand. LOLOL Has anyone seen a bad post here about Jason? I couldn't do one if I wanted to. Now Chiapet, Roddy, Chiara etc I could be like the energizer bunny about I'll keep going, and going, and.... |
Lurknomore | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 09:06 am     Jane I didn't see your post before I answered so let me include you too. As I've mentioned before I do PR for a living, and what you saw was IMHO clearly PR spin. The great and powerful wizard of BB, Arnieboy, considered giving these HG's tapes and sending them back to view their homework as making them "students of the game." Like they could understand all that went down without really watching it. I'd bet the farm (if I had one lol) that is what he was talking about. |
Ryn | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 09:27 am     Luvbb is still around - but real life has been keeping her busy I think, she has enough time to come to the site and catch up last I heard from her. I don't think she would know if Jason was ever a member here though. As for Jasons brother, he is a member but I dont' think he has ever posted, he joined in case he wanted to in the future, his brothers site keeps him plenty busy I think As I said elsewhere, I do know that Jason's family was watching this site before the show started because he told me he was shocked when we knew Jasons name before it was released (thanks to Luvbb). I have a feeling he might have been one of the many many lurkers we have on the site, I am sure for every 'member' there are 3 or 4 'lurkers' that never join, they just like to read what everyone else is saying/thinking. |
