Seanflynn | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 06:45 pm     Stingerman - What harm does nominating Amy do if she isn't going to be voted out? Chiara nominated Roddy vs. Josh. Will someone please explain what the crime here is? Most likely, THE ONLY WAY AMY GETS VOTED OUT THIS WEEK (apart from a POV wrinkle) IS IF SHE SCREWS UP. This is NOT the same thing as a HOH choosing to break a tie that evicts a friend. |
Wendo | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 06:46 pm     Stinger, Ja and Dani were assuming that Mar wasn't putting Roddy up. Now that the noms have happened, I don't know if they'll vote to evict him next week. However, by next week, the pool of nominees will be down to four, excluding HOH. You have to nominate two, so...no one will be safe next week. If Amy doesn't win HOH, she'll likely be gone though. She's an easy eviction because of her second chance/trip to Mexico deal. |
Onlyhuman | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 06:51 pm     The thing is, Marcellus could have nominated Amy and just said that he knew Amy and Roddy were friends and he didn't want her to have to choose between friendship and the game. That is what a friend would do. Instead, Marcellus took this opportunity to, in front of everyone, tell her once again what he feels is "wrong" with her. See, the strategy is not the bad thing. It is the belief that you are the arbiter of the "right" and "wrong" way to play this game. Marcellus is a horrible friend to Amy but she will remain fiercely loyal because she actually cares for him. Stupid girl. |
Ruditoo | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 06:51 pm     Yeah!!! Just the ticket. Amy was a Roddy vote and Marcellas knew it!! He is many things,but stupid isn't one of them. Now if Roddy saves Amy with POV so she can vote to save him I see Jason going up. Marcellas knows Jason can't be trusted to vote against Roddy. If Amy gets POV,will she be convinced by Roddy to save him? Could happen! |
Kathyb | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 06:57 pm     Remember how mad Marcellas got at Amy when she was pleading for just one vote for herself that week she was nominated with him? Boo, Marcellas. |
Solidsnake | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 06:59 pm     can he veto himself if he wins it rod ? |
Wendo | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:02 pm     oops...double post |
Wendo | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:03 pm     Solidsnake, No, a nominee cannot save themselves from the block. But, the can save the other person. |
Solidsnake | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:05 pm     ah thanks.. i cant help but wonder why he didnt win hoh yesterday.. it looks like he will be gone but im wonderin if he will pull somethin out from his magic trick bag.. |
Seanflynn | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:12 pm     He didn't win HOH because he got the last question wrong. He looked quite upset when he did. |
Stingerman | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:12 pm     Wendo, Shaunflynn, you don't treat your best friend in the house like Marcellus treated Amy. It will be interesting to see "EXACTLY" what he said to her on the show tomorrow night. From what I have pieced together so far it doesn't sound like anything I would want my best friend to say to me on National TV. You know what If Marcellus thinks so little of Amy then He should should just tell her so and be done with it, but to do it in this type of a forum that's just CRUEL CRUEL CRUEL...... I treat my dog better than Marcellus treats Amy and it's a shame that she's so hard up for friends that she lets him treat her that way on purpose. Amy may stay but at this point I have no respect for Marcellus as a decent person. |
Wendo | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:13 pm     Solidsnake, don't count Roddy out at all. He's an excellent player at this game. He truly is. There are five days till voting, plus PoV. Plenty of time to change the tide in the house. The only thing that could happen? Roddy gives up. But, I don't think that's his style. |
Wendo | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:16 pm     Stingerman, well, let's wait till the show tomorrow night before we say for sure that what Mar said in his nom speech is horrific. I can't comment until I actually see it. As far as Mar being her best friend, yes, they're best friends in the house. But they're there to play a game and win a pile of dough. Good, bad, and, yes, ugly. |
Allietex | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:17 pm     No the person who wins the POV can only use it to save the other person. Roddy won't use it because he knows he has a better chance against Amy than the others. Amy shouldn't use it because if she vetoes Roddy and they have to put up someone else, she will be voted off. That is assuming the L/D/J alliance stays strong. Even if one falters it will be a tie and Marc will be the deciding vote. They just need to not let Roddy sway them. Of course we know that would never happen. LOL |
Theo17 | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:18 pm     roddy will have to scam both jason and lisa. danni is a lock. I'm praying jason will have some balls this week. |
Woodpecke® | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:23 pm     It has all come down to this. Roddy is trapped in a sewer with no ladder and a ton of stench. Josh, Chiara, Amy, Eric and Gerry were all evicted and he didn't lift a finger to help. He is dead. He has 16 and the dealer has a King showing. He is betting on a hand without a pair. If he is able to escape eviction this week, I will call him the Master of Manipulation, the King of Deceit, the best friggin player in the history of game shows since Dr. Joyce Brothers. Fourth and 33 on his own 6 yard line with 4 seconds left. The rent is due and all he has is a cup of pennies. I can't wait. |
Cajunrambler | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:24 pm     Allietex, "No the person who wins the POV can only use it to save the other person." Are you certain about that? I was under the impression, whoever won the POV can veto their own nomination. I wouldn't put it past Roddy to veto himself, because he was wrongfully nominated. IN HIS OWN MIND |
Solidsnake | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:25 pm     it will be intresting indeed |
Shrike3000 | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:28 pm     Cajunrambler, No, I am POSITIVE that the POV holder cannont take themselves off the block, only the other nominee. Othwise every POV the 2 noms would go after POV like crazy! |
Seanflynn | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:29 pm     It has been repeatedly stated on the show that a nominee upon winning POV can only veto the other nominee. |
Onlymytulips | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:29 pm     The rules of POV...you cannot save yourself only the other nominee. Like who in their right mind would do that? hehehehe
 |
Seanflynn | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:31 pm     A nominee who thought that by putting a more likely evictee against him or herself would do that, onlymytulips Less likely at this stage of the game, but earlier it could definately been an good strategic move |
Seanflynn | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:37 pm     Or, if Roddy wins POV, he vetoes Amy, 100% certain unless he has already convinced Jason and Lisa to vote her out. Otherwise, he has nothing to lose, plenty to gain |
Wendo | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:41 pm     Allietex said, "Even if one falters it will be a tie and Marc will be the deciding vote." There cannot be a tie this week, only three people voting. Impossible. |
Wendo | Friday, August 30, 2002 - 07:42 pm     Seaglynn, I don't see how Roddy vetoing Amy improves his chances of staying in the house. |
