Tabbyking said it--

I bet you that the GOLDEN VETO is truly golden--
because not only can you take yourself off the block, but

YOU GET TO CHOOSE YOUR REPLACEMENT!

And this will happen live on Thursday.

I've had this feeling ever since they announced the darn thing. And I bet I'm right!

Scandalous!!! :)

My evidence?

They told all 5 HGs to pack their bags.

They reminded them again to E the U.

I'm tellin' ya--

Marcellas will choose his replacement.

(If he isn't too arrogant to use it!!-- which will spoil BB's evil plan)

I doubt it'll be guests. Last year's Survivor visit was hyped all week before they arrived. Not a word in the promos this year.

Since the luxury competition takes place AFTER the live show, it sounds to me like an endurance comp, maybe for a car, that will take many hours until everyone drops except the winner (I'm predicting Dannie!).

Alaginger asked "They even told Jason to pack his bag??? "

YUP! That's what made me suspicious. What other scenario could result in Jason leaving Thursday?

(I'm 99.99 % certain that Jason told the others that BB told him all 5, including him, had to pack this week-- Can anyone else confirm this?)

What if???? Marci decides to use the GPOV and then everyone's name (including Jason) is put in a bag and Jason has to pull a name out. That person goes up against Amy for eviction.

I have just rambled through the livefeeds from the 5th through today, and couldn't find anything about who has to pack......but I know it is there somewhere. I just couldn't find it....Sorry!

Okayyyyy.....finally found the referral in the LF's to packing. The way this thing reads, Dani says "Do we all have to Pack" and Jason says, "Yes, because of the live Veto thing"...but this can be taken as Dani asking do we (meaning A/D/L/M) have to pack? I really don't think it means that Jason has to pack....but then I could be wrong. Here is the cut and paste from LF's.

J,D,L, in the LR
J:We have to stategize, I don't want anything to go wrong
J:I feel good if either one of them go <A or m>
Don't worry, if I put either one of you up, YOu two are safe
d: do we all have to pack?
J:Yes because of the new veto, we have to Veto and vote Thurs
L:If you are indecisive, and you put both of them up, it's perfect, because you have all week to decide on how you feel about the both of them
D:Just remember, if Marc is up I HAVE to use the Veto, I gave him my word
J:Just throw the veto then

Thank you Alaginger--

I was listening to the LFs and I must have heard it wrong. If it is correctly transcribed then I believe your interpretation is correct.

I guess I have been trying to endow the Golden Veto with more luster <g>

Thanks for the great detective work!

How’s this for a scenario?

Marc can take both of the nominated off the block this week and name the replacements himself. I know it would be a big cheat, but oh to see Dani's face as Julie makes that announcement. It would be priceless, Marc takes himself and Amy off and puts up Jason and Dani or Lisa and Dani. I know it would probably mean that Marc would be up in the last three, but what could be better than evicting him, taking him to the last three and not winning any money at all, being voted third place by the jury. You can almost feel sorry for him, almost, but not quite…:).

How about America gets to evict one of the houseguests? This would fit in with the theory that 2 are going at the same time - one evicted by phone vote and one by houseguest. It could change the predictable outcome of this game.

Tabbyking - i would love it if they could chose their replacement - seems like something bb would very likely do!

Gramma - i really like your idea about the private deal offered with the hg's (didn't they do something like that last year - with a peanut butter jar and $$ or something?)

i still like what they have done with (i think) both bb1 and bb2 where they viewed some diary room footage - now that would be scandelous! i would love to see their faces LIVE if they were told that.

Alaginger, you're gaster than I am. I went on the same search. LOL.

I found 4 sepaate posts (all made 9/6 about 1:00pm pst ) that described jason's announcement of the new GPOV. Since 3 of them had the exact same wording, I'm thinking it's probably exactly what he said.

"Jason: We were told to expect the unexpected. The game is changing one more time. This is the "Golden Veto"... it is our last veto of the season ... All the same rules apply except one. This veto come with an additional power. If you are nominated and win you can take yourself off the block. The golden veto gives you the power to change someones destiny, or your own. This time, the veto meeting will be held during Thursday's live show. The final veto competition will be held on Sunday.

I agree, that Jason's response to Dani, meant all but him.

It's funny Gramma and Alaginger, when Alaginger first suggested searching the LFs-- I tried and it was exhausting work! Thanks for finding that info cause I was really interested in knowing exactly what Jason said. I knew I remembered him mentioning that everyone had to pack.

Guess it was a case of hearing what ya want to hear. (I don't mean that I want Jason to leave-- I just want it to get interesting! And I don't think that the twists have been twisty enough yet. :)

LOL Alaginger. so that was you! stomping all over my corns! (Gerry would understand) lol

I'm kind of sorry I found it. That underlined part seems to indicate the power to use it on yourself is the only change between it and the regular POV, which would mean that the idea of the user getting to choose the replacemment nom is probably less credible than we were hoping.

back to the drawing board. again. ;)
editing cuz I'm so slow, I didn't see 2addicted's post before starting & completing mine)
"Guess it was a case of hearing what ya want to hear." LOL. That's certainly something I'm quite familiar with myself.

Do you think they invented the GV just for Marcellas?

Like, what are the odds that in the week the veto is useful to someone on the block they actually win it?

It seems like BB thinks up competitions specifically for the player that wins. We've seen it in the recent past with Amy winning the POV in a competition made for a beauty queen. Was the last competition made for a queen too. And if so, isn't it ironic that it's this particular week?

The GPOV was announced before jason made any nominations Bigger. So, I don't think so.

but I think that idea gets you an invite to the Oliver Stone club. ;)

I think being nominated made Marcellas try a whole heck of a lot harder than he normally would. Should be interesting to watch when we get to see it on television. I was thinking Jason gave Marcellas a run for his money, but I read somewhere that Jason was third, and Amy was second. So, it was Amy that was trying really hard at winning that GPOV.........

I still think AS knows Amy is good tv, and whatever the next twist is it will be something to benefit her. I hope it does cuz I just love Amy, flaws and all!

Talk in LF's right now is starting to sound like maybe a car in the luxury competition. Of course, that has nothing to do with "Expect The Unexpected" but just thought I would throw it in here.

from EYEmail

Roddy ran out of reprieves when he was unanimously evicted from the BIG BROTHER house. With Jason in control as Head of Household, things promise to get really interesting this Thursday, September 12, 8/7c, when a special two-hour live edition will include both the veto challenge and the eviction of the next HouseGuest. There's also a potentially game-changing surprise in store for the HouseGuests. A second episode of BIG BROTHER airs Saturday, September 14, 8/7c

Game-changing?? That sounds like more than a car competition to me..

My guess is that the reason Jason was told to pack his bags is that they will offer a car as incentive for someone to put themselves on the block.

So Marcellas would probably veto himself anyway (since he doesn't even have a driver's license) but instead of Jason choosing who replaces him on the block, we could have Danielle, Lisa or Jason placing themselves on the block. I don't think the person who wins the car should necessarily have to be evicted, but whoever that person is would likely get voted out anyway -- since everyone else would use their already winning something as an excuse to kick them out.

Under my scenario, Amy would be the only one not given a chance at winning the car (since she has no GPOV and is already on the block), but that is fair since she has already had a paid vacation and a second chance. But maybe if none of the other 4 people wanted to put themselves on the block voluntarily they could award the car to Amy.
