roddy isnt going anywhere if he screws with amys mind enough and thats their first goal so its totally dumb to give hime hours of opportunity with amy alone. If amy jumps in front of a train for the guys she will regret it the rest of her life. How do you throw away a 1 in 5 chance to win 500k? He is trying to snow her that they both could survive tahts not only impossible but I bet in the end he wouldnt even vote to save her. He is that cold. danni isnt trying to drive a wedge with marcy. That is the opposite it is marcy that wants her gone. Whats the use if pushing marcy when next week he will be the least powerful person in the house. He cant win hoh and next week hoh has the tie breaker vote

I see Roddy trying to pull off two things #1 get Amy to use veto #2 IF that doesn't work he gets to use this final ploy of "let's keep this just between us" when he becomes part of the jury, and can see who said they would, yet ran back and told everyone else. This man NEEDS to prove his point about being right all the time regardless of his own actions. To him, it's no longer about what he did that may of been slimey, it's how everyone else did him wrong and he's going to make that the focus.

I hope Roddy does stay and I hope he gets hoh. Amy has nothing to gain or lose by staying this week, except maybe not being executed verbally for 7 more days, because they are already plotting her outage next week. I want to see Danielle squirm. He would do well to put her up against Marc so he can squirm too. Let Dani and Marc go at each other for votes. We know Jason will save Dani, but what would Lisa do? Is she smart enough to know that she will be history if comes down to Dani and Jason? With Dani and Marc on the block it would be the biggest week of drama yet!! If Marc stayed would he not be the one vying for Roddy's affection, just like Amy is now? All the things he is saying about Amy right now Marc would be doing...

Earthmother, I was specifically speaking about Roddy's mind manipulations because the thread was about Roddy and Amy. Roddy's style of manipulation bothers me the most, but that's my personal interpretation and reaction to it. I don't like to see Dani and Marc do it to Amy either. I know that I probably couldn't hold my own against him either, because I would get angry and lose my focus of what I was talking about.

I do feel a little sorry for Amy because she thinks she can play with Roddy and handle it. She is enjoying the attention that holding POV brings and wants more of it, hence the "I can't wait to mess with Roddy" attitude.

I agree with what another poster said, the best thing for Amy would be to refuse to talk to him. Just bop around the house like usual but not talk to him. She can't beat him at his own game, she needs a differnt tactic.

Marc is beginning to think up ways to get rid of Dani though he hasn’t shared them with anyone as yet. He is aware of her strength and wants her out at some point.

earth only somebody rooting for roddy would say she has nothing to gain by staying this week. Thats crayz. After this week there will only be 3 more evictions and she could be hoh in 2 of them if she is lucky nevernind that somebody might want to keep her around thinking she is a easy win in the final vote. I think asking this girl to walk away from a 40% chance at 50k and a 20% chance at 500k is nuts. Let her play her game. She has a 25% chance to win hoh next week and make all sorts of deals. I want her and jason in the end and do not want to see her throw away her chance for roddy. Specifically I would ask myself Would roddy sacrifice himself for me? well does anyone believe roddy would sacrifice himself for Amy or any other house guest? The answer to me is no.

I agree Theo..Amy has a chance..to win HOH..why should she throw it away..if Roddy stays he only has a 1 in 4 shot at winning HOH too..and he could easily go..I think Amy and Roddy are in the same situation..why should Amy throw away her chance to win 500,000 dollars it is a small chance but still a chance..She shouldn't sacrifice herself for Roddy that is stupid..the people saying this are Roddy fans..and dont really care if Amy sacrifices herself..and dont even believe she has the possiblity to win HOH..GO AMY!..Dont use that veto and make us all proud :)

Why does Amy owe Roddy anything. Just two weeks ago she saved him when he was within a hair of being voted off. If anything he owes her.

Earthmother said, "I hope Roddy does stay and I hope he gets hoh. Amy has nothing to gain or lose by staying this week, except maybe not being executed verbally for 7 more days, because they are already plotting her outage next week. <snip post above>"

How can you say she has nothing to gain? She has everything to gain. She's won HOH in the past, she's good at many of the competitions, and she has a 1 in 4 chance of winning HOH this week. Earth, only a Roddy fan would say this about Amy using the veto because it benefits Roddy.

Looking at Amy as a game player, her best interest to staying in the game is to NOT use the veto, especially since she is well aware that the others want Roddy out of the house. In addition, you have to consider Marcellas's role should she use the PoV. Marcellas is sticking to Danielle, he chose her over Roddy. If she uses the PoV, he will not put Danielle (which is who I think Roddy would like put up.) You can also see he's chosen Dani by how he speaks of Roddy.

Therefore, should she use PoV, she will be gone versus staying in the game and having a 25% chance of winning HOH.

Your bias as a fan of Roddy, and it's apparent in such a statement. While I'm a fan of Ja and Dani, I still think Amy should play the game for herself, and no one else, including Roddy and the others.

allietex i think its hard to say amy owes roddy anything after he strong armed her into eviction the first time. She is a fool if she jumps in front of this train for him especially since he wouldnt sacrifice himself for anybody. NOBODY!

I can't wait to see the POV competition which Amy won and see if Roddy even tried to win it. He would have been in a much better position if he had won the veto himself and taken Amy off in exchange for her vote. Marcellas and Danielle might very well have decided to put up Jason using the faulty logic (which Danielle had been discussing with Lisa before the nominations) that "Roddy cannot campaign against Jason" but then Lisa could decide it is in her best interests to keep Roddy in the house so that a Roddy-Amy-Lisa coalition would have a 75% chance of winning the next HOH and put up Danielle and Marcellas. Despite Lisa's loyalties to Danielle and Jason, she would have to take into acount that she has a better chance at beating Roddy (who so many people have this irrational fear of) and Amy in the final 2. Or even if Marcellas had put up Lisa, Roddy could at least take another crack at Jason and his conscience.
