Kmjm | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:05 pm     Accidently posted twice- the board is sooo slow. Edited to say that seems like Robert is really under pressure. Great. Let's see what the macho man is made of, LOL. |
Hamsterlady | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:05 pm     Yeah Jpgramma, Jokers does have a lot of pics and they're up to date. Hopefully somebody there will have the pics to show them leaning. |
Saggkl | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:06 pm     stake out in a car or building setting down is a lot different than standing on a grid with your head bent down. |
Beachmama | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:06 pm     Is Jun trying to be annoying? What is up with her crazy fake laugh and smile thing she's doing? |
Seanflynn2003 | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:06 pm     Woodpecker, it looked by their grinding against the bars Jee and Robert were thinking like you |
Jigglywigglyjun | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:07 pm     Mranon... we good people here on the threads do not feel they should be cheating... Its our right to gripe over it.. OK.... |
Beachmama | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:08 pm     that's true Saggkl.. but the inner determination is the same |
C1mag | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:08 pm     Mr that makes no sense what you said about the idea that just because they break the rules doesn't mean they are booted. If that is the case then Jun should grab a piece of chicken. I mean after all no one said you'd be booted. The truth is if you repeatedly break the rules and Jee has as we have seen more than once then he needs to be eliminated. No more loading these comps for certain ones. It was pretty bad when last weeks hoh kept saying even last night that it was rigged for him to win and he is convinced they want the stooges to take it all. Lets see that comment proved wrong. Boot Jee based on the rules. |
Mranon | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:09 pm     But they aren't cheating. They are just not following directions, that isn't cheating. Cheating would be leaning backwards on the bar for like 30 minutes, or punching someone in the face.. that would be cheating in my book. and it's just as much my right to gripe over the griping. |
Wendo | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:10 pm     I think Jun's about to head out...I'm impressed though, she's lasted to the two hour mark. Erika is really trying hard to get Ali and Jun out of the cage. |
Misslibra | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:10 pm     Jee was squatting when did that become facing outward ? Why haven't the other HG's complain ? A) Their brain dead from being in the house so long. (Can't you tell how everyone in the house have been playing the game?) Or B) Maybe one or more did complain while we was at FOTH. |
Jpgramma | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:11 pm     This has to be harder than jack than any of the others. Not even taking his age and the weakening bladder and knees that come with age, there's the problem with his height. Having to hunch like that is going to become VERY painfi=ul. Shorter folks do have an advantage here. as for his stake-out experience, come on. You've all see the movies. They're either situated in an apartment across the way eith a telephoto lens, or sitting in their car with lots of coffee and doughnuts. ;) BUT..he does have determination and self discipline in his favor. Hang in there Jack and Erika!! |
Smokey | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:12 pm     I heard Ali, Jack and someone else say they had the "30 second rule" and it seemed that meant that they could shift around a bit and stretch, squat, whatever. |
Tobor7 | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:14 pm     Justin needs to give his boys some pep talks huh? Keep them pumped up. He should be sitting right there in front of the cage & talking to them. In fact, they should talk about who they are going to put up when one of them wins RIGHT in front of the others. Psych 'em all out. (These guys just don't know how to play.) |
Amari | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:15 pm     Jiggly, there's a picture posted in the live feeds that clearly shows Jack standing sideways. I don't think the rules clearly stated leaning, turning a little etc. was disqualifying. If I had been standing there on an uncomfortable grid for this long and I looked over and saw someone blatantly breaking the rules, I'd start screaming for BB to get them out. One less competitor. Yet nobody has. |
C1mag | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:15 pm     Cheating isn't whats happening. BREAKING THE RULES is whats happening. It's like accidentally stepping out of bounds. It counts then when you do it so this should count as well. Jee has repeatedly had his back against the bars. Not just once and at one point it was for at least 5 minutes. Nice cam shot of him doing it. The others aren't complaining because if you are faced forward you can't see it. |
Onlyhuman | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:16 pm     Two things that are fascinating to me... First, I would have thought that BB would have had more stunts to pull, considering that these people ALL have a motivation to stay in that cage. It's been 2 hours and all we've had is a little food temptation by Justin. Second, these people seem to be very supportive of each other, constantly asking if they are okay and voluntarily switching places. Jun seems to be attempting to annoy everyone into leaving, but other than that, there's been no strategic peeing, a la Will Kirby, and there has been no trash talk or attempts to distract the others. I would have thought that both BB and the hamsters would be playing this a little harder! |
Smokey | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:17 pm     Robert sure is looking miserable--they all are, but to me, Robert looks the worst. I'm surprised that they are all still in after over two hours. I am betting Jun is the first one out, or at least in the first 2 out. I think Erika is trying harder on this one than any other so far. |
Cliotheleo | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:18 pm     I can't believe I just got home and after watching the show flipped on the feeds to find out that they're all STILL in there. I must say I'm impressed, I thought it would already be down to two or something. Forgive me if this has been pointed out already, but has it been pointed out that the box is the exact same height as Jun? She said yesterday "if it's an endurance competion, I can stay out there all night." |
Jigglywigglyjun | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:18 pm     MRANON.... I like the punching someone in the face sentence.. Yup... |
Vskatefan | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:18 pm     Once again, Jack is 58, not 158 I think his height might be more of a factor than his age. |
Misslibra | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:19 pm     What am I going to do about it ? Well I'm going to... I'm going to... to go to Cali and kick Arnie ass! LOL No but I will start a petition, write letter's and call letting them know I am not a happy camper with the show. Also I wont buy from the sponsor's of the show, and ask anyone else who think this was blatant breaking of the rules to do the same. What else can I do. |
C1mag | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:19 pm     Jun is clearly breaking the rules right now. She is leaning backwards against the bars to the next cage. They need to boot her now. She's been there for quite a while. |
Cliotheleo | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:20 pm     Only, that is a good point about them supporting one another. They good be helping each other endure without even realizing it, you know, the whole group thing "if you can do it, I can do it." |
Efilon | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:21 pm     Jun is the one who is really leaning...she has had her back against the bars and feet planted against a floor bar. You could do that for a long time. Ahh...see she is facing out again now. Sure she got all rested though. |
