This Week's Dynamics
What555456 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:31 pm     OK, let me understand the dynamics here.... Jee won HoH, giving him a swelled head (they all get it and we know from Jee's last time as HoH he is very susceptible to it). Jee won POV so he could keep the others from undoing his nominations -- and extending his control over people's options. In winning POV, Jee forced the others on PB&J for a week, which he promised to do as well, but instead he is eating regular food. In the luxury comp, Jee's competitive juices flow, and he wins, ensuring he gets to eat fast food every day and can deign to allow one of the peasants to eat with him once each day -- making them grovel for a Big Mac, if they want a break from PB&J. Jee is now out of cigarettes, which means his tolerance and patience level is going to go way down. To keep from pi**ing everyone off, he is going to need them to be very patient with him -- while he denies them any options to affect the nomination process that is vital to them, east real food min front of them and makes them grovel for a cheap fast food meal. Talk about Jee making his bed and now having to sleep in it! Can everyone say... "Goodbye, Jee!" |
Dogdoc | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:38 pm     Good-bye Jee! |
Seanflynn2003 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:38 pm     Not if Robert or possibly Jun wins HoH next week |
Seanflynn2003 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:40 pm     Also keep in mind his actions make him a bit more desireable person to drag along to the final 2; he is not nearly so unbeatable now |
Neciefranklin | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:46 pm     Can anyone say the word the word frustration? Jee is going to be frustrated with not having cigarettes and now he is going to be a target more than ever with the other houseguests. He is making them eat peanut butter and jelly, and he doesn't seem to care that his one friend in the house got more upset than anyone in the house. I think he needs to calm down a little and not rock the boat so much if he wants to go any further. I hope he can look a few steps ahead but I don't think that he does. |
Seanflynn2003 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:52 pm     There are too reasons for wanting to keep a HG in a this point: 1) you are an ally 2) you are considered beatable at the end Jee until his actions was among the other 5 a definate ally to Robert, a possible one for Jun and Allison, and not to Jack and Erika. Until this week he was considered I think among the 6 the most difficult to beat along with Jack. It is possible that by his actions, emotions will rule next week if Robert doesn't win HoH. BUT it is also possible that in the margins the others may decide it is better to keep him around, particularly if somehow Jack stays and he is up against him. I wouldn't recommend Jee's course of action, but he has not destroyed his chances, and in a weird way may have by becoming less popular increased them. |
Boberg | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:55 pm     Seanflynn2003 if Jun gets HOH I really think she will nominate Jee and Rob so as not to break her alliance with Erika and Ali..and Jun will be planning for Rob to leave. About Jee being more desirable to take to the final 2..I don't know cause Rob will never vote against Jee and the three HG already on the jury will not have to go thru the pb&j and I am not sure how much of the show they will really get to see..so I dont think this will change their votes at all..I feel Dana and Justin will definetyl still vote Jee in the big money and would depend on who the other finalist is who nate would vote for. On the cigarette thing..jee never (while in the BB house anyway)smoked that much so i dont feel it will be that big a deal for him..2-4 cigarettes a day..that is not much of an addiction. Just my humble opinions and of course all others are welcomed to theirs. |
Neciefranklin | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 02:00 pm     You are right about him becoming less popular increases his chances into staying in the house until the final two but does his actions help him win the money? I don't think so. You have to think about who is on the jury and what their mindset is going to be when they are voting. I think Erica has the best shot if she makes it to the final two. She has been more honorable than Jee except for her horrible comments about him. I really don't think anyone is going to win this by having a high standard of morality. I think it will come down to who wanted it the most and that the jury recognizes that. |
Bearware | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 02:35 pm     Second place wins Fifty thousand, don't they? Not bad pay for a fourth of a year. I have to admit, if it were up to me, I'd give Robert the money over Jee, and I really really don't like Robert. In fact, I always thought he'd be my LAST choice for money. But Allison, Jun, and Jee have all pretty much taken last place and are trying to share it. IMO |
Gina8642 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 03:31 pm     Sean - IMO - there are three reasons to keep folks in the house - your two - 1) you are an ally (who fits depends on who we are talking about) 2) you are considered beatable at the end (Perhaps - Ali, Jun, and Robert fit this description - depends on who you are talking to...) AND 3) you are beatable at Final Three (which leaves the winner of final three HOH to make final two decision) Jun, Robert, and Jack fit #3. |
Gina8642 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 03:41 pm     Second place takes home about $30,000 after taxes. They also lose their stipend which is worth $9,000-$13,500*. So, really, second place is worth about $20,000. Not small change, but not as good as they sometimes make it out to be... I'm figuring stipend based on 12-15 weeks times $750 per week. 11 or 12 weeks of game, plus a few weeks more from pre-game sequetration plus one week post game for CBS required promotional interviews. Since I'm not sure if they are paid for pre-game stuff, I put down a range... |
