Tobor7 | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 03:25 pm     Save Ali? From what herself? I would save her from herself by NOT giving her 1st or 2nd place Gs. The thought of her with all that extra cash is scary. Let her earn it the hard way, It will give her a better perspective on life. |
Maryk | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 03:30 pm     Bringing the most unpopular person sometimes backfires - remember Richard Hatch? Alison's got to go! |
Jdel | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 03:39 pm     I don't want to reward anyone for the traits she and a couple of others have exhibited. However, isn't that what this show is all about? Sneaking, lying, alliances, gettin over on the more naive ones - the show wants drama so people will watch. Like ali said she's the girl people love to hate. |
Tobor7 | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 03:46 pm     She provided the drama. Great. Purpose is over. Don't let the door hit ya... |
R151996 | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 03:50 pm     I don't believe it would backfire this time. And Erika doesn't appear to be a person who spins on a dime, so the player she doesn't want to reach the finals is still Robert. She's playing along with him only to secure her safety. Even if Robert campaigned against her, I can't see Erika losing four votes against Ali. If Erika explains the situation properly to Ali once the veto is settled (including what Jun told her), I think Ali would take Erika to the finals over Robert and be happy with the $50K. In a way Ali would redeem herself while Robert would get all he deserves in the stipend. Jun would likely still take Robert over Erika to the finals, and no amount of lobbying by Erika would change that since Jun needs Robert off the jury. |
Tamalyn | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 03:51 pm     am i the only one that wants to see ali win??? maybe its because i am from the uk? lol go ali, i hope you win the veto!! |
Busydizzle | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 03:53 pm     I would love to see Ali win! I posted about it in the Ali Debate Thread, in fact... : ) |
Jpgramma | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 03:54 pm     um, er, well, I guess her parents may still be rooting for her ;) |
R151996 | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:00 pm     Sorry to burst everyone's bubble but Ali has MANY fans more than just her parents. Have you checked who was #1 in popularity last week on the CBS site? |
C1mag | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:07 pm     Would I want to save Ali? Since two of these people will be going to loser island and they have all agreed that taking Ali to the finals might backfire it's best to cut her now cause instead of being rewarded for what could be an easy win those other two you booted would say, "That was a stupid move. She duped you into believing you could easily win over her and none of us wanted to hand her any money" And as Erika pointed out there are still 2 jury votes in the house so it's best to let her go now. She played a bold game but did make some moves I never would have done. I applaude her effort. Get her out, but be aware... Rob now has his name written on that 500k check so you better get him out next to even your chances. If Rob makes it to the finals he will be this years winner. I predicted this about a month ago only I predicted an Ali/Rob final with Rob winning so it wouldn't surprise me if he takes the money. I'm happy with any final result seeing as how anything could happen. In this case I think it's funny and I'm so use to the end results of this show not being what I would prefer I'd be really surprised if it turned out different. I can honestly say he didn't play the game he simply got lucky and this latest twist where the girls will have to betray one another just landed right in his lap. That final girl could challenge it and say they would have done the same thing but petty players never admit the truth so the slacker wins the game by default. LOL. Dang I love this game Back to the original question again... GET HER OUT! She is a liability now. |
Misslibra | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:16 pm     I agree with T7. It's time for the evil step sister to go. She has given us enough drama to last for a while even after she is gone. Jdel, for some people they think they have to play the game the way Ali did. And for Ali she thinks to play this way is the only way to win. Some even think if your not backstabbing lying, and conniving your not playing the game, I disagree with that. Lisa proved from last year this isn't necessarily the case. And Ethan who won Survivor, was a good guy in the game and still won as well. I don't want to see her type of game play rewarded. Next year we would see a house full of Ali's. I prefer to see someone win who have not played Ali's style of playing. I like to root for the good guys in the game, over the villains. Although I have to agree every game need a few villains. I just perfer they not win the big prize. I also wonder sometimes how much are we like the people who we like to root for. I was a Lisa fan and now a Erika fan. I seem to navigate toward the nicer people in the game. While other's like the more conniving, lying, backstabbers who will do or say anything to get a head in game. It would be interesting to find out if some of us are like the people we root for in the game. But would I want to save Ali... no. I think Ali could use a nice vacation with Dana and Justin.  |
Earthmother | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:18 pm     For the same reason I didn't want Dani to go to the finals last year I don't want Ali to go either. However to be perfectly honest if I truly wanted to win 500 thousand dollars I'd be stupid to go to the finals with anyone else..How's that for being "stuck between a rock and a hard place" ... |
Wendo | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:21 pm     Misslibra said, "Next year we would see a house full of Ali's." And people said this the year Will won. But BB3 wasn't full of Wills. And people said during BB3 it would be a houseful of Dani's and that's not the case this year. I disagree that if Ali won the game (which I don't think she will), that next year it would be a houseful of Ali's. That's just not the case. The producers are careful to cast a wide variety of people. |
Vskatefan | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:23 pm     Ali's popularity on the CBS site is obviously due to a huge spike in votes. Someone who likes her used some bot to vote for her over and over. Before that, she was way down. |
Sheilaree | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:24 pm     The Drama Queen is Alison how old is she? |
Misslibra | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:29 pm     Wendo there is always a few Ali's or Will's in the game. I didn't mean literally there will be a house full of Ali's. |
Jpgramma | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:41 pm     Vskate - you're right. I was looking at the popularity poll in the wee hours of the night and alison was at 1.something! The lowest of the low. I just went back to have another look and she's back up to 6. I hope the same hacker who is pushing her up in the popularity polls isn't doing the same thing with the A/C votes. btw.. Erika is in first place with 7.7 and bb4winnerDAVE is in 2nd place! inching Jack out by a nose hair methinks. |
C1mag | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:50 pm     This is really hard to explain but here's my quick take on Ali. I like that she dares to play the game based on every rule in the book. I can't stand her as a human being. Thats about it for me when it comes to her. I appreciate what she did in the game. Don't think I would have made all the moves she did but I wouldn't dock her for those moves in the house. If there are no Ali's or Danis in this game then some sugar slopping slacker like Lisa wouldn't win this game by default LMAO! Heres a good example... John McEnroe had one of the worst attitudes on court. However, he has TONS of lifetime fans because they looked past the "tude" and appreciated the game he offered. I can do the same with someone like Ali in this game. I'm a fan of her attempt at this game. If she goes this week she gave it one hell of a bid based on the rules. As a fan of her game I can honestly say I can't identify with her as a person, but damn did I love some of the moves she made in this game. |
Jdel | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 04:56 pm     noticed that ali is wearing a lot of pink today - low cut top for show - pink bikini all day. I read somewhere that pink is said to be a submissive color to men and makes them feel less threatened - probably the pink for girls and blue for boys thing when we're kids - wonder if ali read the same and is trying to work it on robert. |
Cricket | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 05:01 pm     Erika is so worried about voting her out and I just read on LF that Ali said she HATED Erika. Why does she always go around saying she hates the other houseguests. That can't be part of her gameplan. Nothing to be gained there. She seems to have a lot of insecurities...very sad. I don't like her personality, but I think she is an attractive girl with a cute shape. She's pretty smart and on her way to law school. She should have more confidence in herself. |
Jdel | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 05:03 pm     C1mag - I agree somewhat - I do give her credit that she is the only one of the houseguests that had everyone convinced she was their ticket to winning the big money. she positioned herself so that any one of the other 3 would take her along and that may still come to be if she gets the veto or one of the other girls goes against roberts plan. ali out is not a done deal yet. I don't like her if that's the person she is on the outside and she has to have learned this behavior before she got here. If she goes then we have to find someone else to complain about - Robert being way too nice - he hasn't had a melt down at all today. |
Jhezzie | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 05:06 pm     I can't stand Ali. I want her to come in third. So close, yet, so far, lol. Out of the money, out of the house. |
R151996 | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 05:10 pm     The main reason for voting result fluctuations today on the CBS site is that a new week started and all totals were reset to zero overnight. That easily explains the swings from high to low that have settled back down later in the day. |
Spunky | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 05:13 pm     Oh wow! I never thought to get these many replies... Anyway... personally I think I could have used a bit more entertainment with Ali in the final HOH. But you're right, Ali alone can save herself, and if she manages to do just that, I think she deserves the 50K. If not, we will have fun with a thread of goodbyes to Ali titled "Your 15 minutes are up". |
Beruthiel | Thursday, September 04, 2003 - 05:24 pm     No, I would not. Let her sink or swim. |
