Jason's "Gerry is a Mushroom" strategy
| Subtopic | Msgs | Last Updated |
Sybilbb3oracle | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 04:49 pm     Jason, when interviewing Gerry, picked up that Gerry was assuming that everyone wanted Amy to go. Using this, Jason is keeping Gerry in the dark and letting him believe that Amy is going. In the meanwhile, Jason and Dani met with Amy just before the NOM meeting and swore to her that even though she was going to be nominated; she was not going to be voted out. This accomplished what Jason wanted: no one mad at him until the votes are announced. Gerry, in the dark, doesn't believe that he is leaving, so isn't angry at Jason. Amy, knowing that she is staying, isn't angry at Jason. No one is angry at Jason for nominating them. And that is ALL that Jason wanted. Not to have anyone angry at him and getting on his nerves until they are ejected. A real smooth operator! |
Cindyluvsroddy | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 04:54 pm     and if Roddy did that, this thread would be loaded with Roddy haters ... lol |
Bridgetlovesbb | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 04:57 pm     definately cindy! I personally hope that Amy gets the boot and DESPERATELY HOPE that Roddy gets HOH!!! |
Patman | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:02 pm     Isn't this just the "decoy" nominating strategy that's been the status quo for the past 6 evictions? |
Junifer | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:04 pm     Sorry to the two of you, but I hope that Dani gets the POV and puts Roddy up instead of Gerry, then buh-bye Roddy. I would say instead of Amy (cause I don't want her to go) but then I'm not sure Roddy would go against Gerry. Get that POV Dani!!!! Wrong thread maybe, my bad! |
Draheid | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:05 pm     Um, Junifer, Jason has already won PoV ... his decision on whether or not to use it won't be known until the meeting on Monday ... but it's already been awarded on Saturday! |
Hosewater | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:06 pm     But what happened to "First Chiara and then Roddy" and of course, Jason sitting up in his bed telling Danielle how "Roddy has to go"??? |
Justshirley | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:07 pm     Junifer -- Jason has already won PoV. But you're right. He should do exactly what you suggested Danielle should do. I still hold out hope that he'll do it. (Although I think I'm in for a disappointment.) |
Luvsreality | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:07 pm     Ummmmm... didn't Jason get the POV already?? |
Hillbilly | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:09 pm     ..hosewater...its that mind meld technique...it gets em every time....plus they's let's their emotions gets the best of em come eviction time instead of usin the head.... |
Sybilbb3oracle | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:10 pm     Pat, the difference this time is that both nominees see themselves as the decoy. Neither one believes that they have any chance of being evicted and therfore aren't mad at Jason |
Hillbilly | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:10 pm     ...ah...i's meant 'their head'..not 'the head'... |
Sybilbb3oracle | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 05:11 pm     Or you might call it the "double-decoy", I'm a coward strategy |

Well, Hosewater, surely you are mistaken. There is no way Jason could have a part of that. Don't you know that Jason was really hurt and upset with Roddy for even thinking that Jason couldn't be trusted? Jason is a master deceiver. His deception of Gerry is right in keeping with Jason's character. The absolute worst kind of evil is the kind which masks itself under an aura of goodness. Jason is evil personified. |
Sisalou | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 06:59 pm     ROFLMAO at Jason is evil personified. That is ludicrous! By the way I don't think that any of the houseguests are evil. Good Grief! |
Trillian | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 07:20 pm     "Jason is evil personified?" Think of what happened to those girls in Oregon for some perspective on what evil is. |
Minnietlm63 | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 07:34 pm     Ummmm...Bohawkins, Jason is playing a game. I don't think that means he's evil. |
Hosewater | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 07:41 pm     What girls in Oregon? Is Roddy from Oregon? |
Meggieprice | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 07:44 pm     I wish I thought Jason did what he did as strategy. Jason wimped out and gave himself a quiet week with no stress. He let me down big time and I lost faith in him. I do agree noone in the house is evil though I feel Rodi's tactic border on it. |
Seamonkey | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 07:46 pm     Remember that Dani "can't" nominate Roddy, she says.. that was why it was hoped that Jason would do it. So, if Dani wins HOH, Roddy slides yet another week. |
Maris | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 07:46 pm     The girls in oregon have been missing for many months and their bodies were found today buried in a neighbor's property. Very sad case and yes that is what evil is. |
Hosewater | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 07:49 pm     Thanks for the explanation, Maris. And you didn't even bring Gerry's name into it! APPLAUSE! I don't watch TV news... Too depressing. Point made with the Oregon case. |
Onlymytulips | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 07:56 pm     $500,000..........what would Jason do? I think Jason is serious about the MONEY. Isn't that the reason they are really in the house? I mean, sure this is great entertainment and all, but....$500,000! I think that Jason doesn't want to make anyone uspet. Not necesarily not get mad at him. Same difference somewhat. But, on the other hand, did he see the look in Danielle's eyes when he did not put up Roddy....or the way she started to wiggle her legs? I am sure being in the house is an expeirence that is tough. All there is to do is think about the game. The game involes people with feelings. The same people that want the money too. They all seem to have the love/hate relationships going on. Which is expected in this enviorment. Makes me happy that all I have to do is go to work, watch BB3 and play on the computer!

Jaysgal | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 08:00 pm     Cna anyone verify this: Jason told Danielle of the possibility of putting up Marcellas in place of Gerry? Wow! If he does it, then my vibe is probably going his way because I had been saying since yesterday that this was a great opportunity to strike a deal with Gerry, which Jason would not get from Marcellas. |
Bohawkins | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 11:17 pm     Evil takes many forms. It is so very easy to identify the acts of evil people such as the Oregon rapist or the bombers in Israel. It is much harder to recognize the insidious evil of people who deceive and masquerade their deviousness under the guise of goodness. It is a mistake to only want to call overt acts of violence evil, and allow the subtleties of human misbehavior to pass unnoticed. Many a marriage has been destroyed by smiling liars who would never do a dastardly act such as to rape a girl, or to smash into a building with an airplane, or blow up a schoolbus. But, those charming philanders are characterized by duplicity and they have a practiced ability to slyly misrepresent the truth, resulting in heartache and pain for others, and ultimately themselves. Yes, if we only use the standard of murderers and child rapists and terrorists to describe the conduct of evil, and say that all other behavior is good, then we open ourselves to exploitation by the sly and clever wolves who cloak themselves in garments of righteousness as they practice to deceive others with tongues skilled in mendacity. |
Shyguy | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 09:07 am     Jaysgal, I would love to see that. Marc on the block. I used to wish him the best in this game, but his conduct, whining, name calling, and such have made me change my mind. Off with his head! Bohawkins, Huh? |
Bernie | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 09:25 am     You ARE talking about Roddy, right Bohawkins? |
Rain | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 10:05 am     sisalou, I agree. I don't think any of the hgs are evil, including the evicted ones, and including the ones I don't like. I reserve the word "evil" for people who truly deserve it--Hitler, Mohammad Atta, Osamma Bin Laden, etc. |
Hippyt | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 10:20 am     Meggieprice,I totally agree with you! Jason wimped out,not wanting anyone mad at him. Up until this week,I really thought Jason had what it takes to win this game. After his statement in the DR about how he may have just handed Roddy the game....,well,if he doesn't use the POV,he's just a wimp. He doesn't deserve to win.JMHO Oh,and I don't think he's evil! |
Earthmother | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 10:31 am     From your mouth to Jays ear Jaysgal...I would love nothing more than to watch these two sweat once again. He will go after Amy with a vengence (which I hope doesn't include hurtful things said about her personally) and Amy will see what her friend is made of. Just call me evil. This is a game for money...I think there has been some evil-doing this year, but lying and deceiving others is not evil to me in the context of the game. As I have said before you can play this game without assassinating someone, but you can't be completely honest or you let everyone know your game plan. |
Ocean_Islands | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 10:32 am     The love of money is the root of all evil, says the Bible. These people in the game all love money, and are subjugating their normal behavior for it, some lying for it, some backstabbing, others being hypocrites. All for money. They are all playing with fire. I don't care how many times Jason reads the Bible, but his being on the game is a demonstration of his love of money. |
Nemesis | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 12:06 pm     It's a GAME, remember? a game for money, but still a game. Nothing to do with "real" reality, the bible, friendship, hypocrites, backstabbing, love, hate and especially evil. Geez, I think some need to get a grip on reality and realize that this is just a GAME! |
Sybilbb3oracle | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 02:57 pm     As Marcellas told Amy the other night; "Its work, not playtime" This is just as much a job as anyone elses' job. This is a contest but it IS NOT A GAME; it is too vicious to be fun like a game; it is work like the real contests in life. |
Bridgetlovesbb | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 03:50 pm     i think all of the hgs are FAR from "evil". Some are meaner than others but i wouldnt go as far as to call them "evil". Its a game and they are playing it. They have to live with themselves. |
Ptomaine | Tuesday, August 27, 2002 - 06:45 pm     Ocean_Islands, You are making an assumption that the primary reason why a person is in the game is due to the "love of money". Other factors may also contribute to why a person may want to be in the game. Maybe fame, or just the challenge of the game itself. And wanting or needing money is not the same as having a "love of money". It's nice to have convenient biblical adages, but life is rarely that black and white. |
