I think that the reason that grid is even two weeks in a row is because Robert's name is there, when they find out who is gone next they will adjust the grid to that person's name 4th from the bottom, since that person will no longer be voting. Unfortunately they can't make that grid plot out exactly until they know the order of HG's leaving.
JMHO

John32070 said, "Only thing that changed when Justin was expelled from BB2 was the show just ended a week earlier."

Actually, BB2 went on longer than anticipated because of September 11, IIRC.

Toolhound... you may be on to something. Dana's ex comes in and surprise... "It's a girl!"

It's really probably just a placeholder. The names are all in alpha order, except for the evictees (which appear to be in reverse order of eviction). It's nothing really. I mean, if you look at it that way, you can make the assumption that only Alison and Dana will be the last two there.

It would be a big twist if the pov holder was offered $$$$ in secret not to use the veto.
I feel there are other X's waiting to enter.

I want Dana's ex to be allowed in the house....that would put her over the edge, although she said it's been since 1999 that she had a boyfriend. With her hyper personality, there HAD to be sour grapes and bad mouthing.

You know, the more I look at CBS's website (listed above) I think there is something there...Looks like we are in for a week with no eviction...It will be interesting to say the least...maybe that is when the show will get good...who knows at this point.

Ice P. IA, either no eviction...or an eviction with adding someone either new or returning. At this point I think they would be smart to throw someone new into the house. (female)

Sorry... minor detail here... don't you think that if there were a big twist about to be revealed next week that Julie Chen would have been teasing us about it? That there would be ads promoting it? It doesn't do CBS's ratings any good to pull a long-planned twist out of thin air. They gave us plenty of buildup before every twist last year.

Thinking about it, last year the twist was bringing back one of the first four evictees, what if the new twist is to bring back one of the first 4 sequestered? Or even one of the first 2 or 3?

I'm pretty confident they wouldn't want an off week with this cast especially considering the dwindling ratings. If this wasn't the plan at first, not even a backup plan if one of the hgs got ejected, I'm thinking it's being considered right now.

There's also still the possibility other exes have been sequestered this entire time and they will compete for one to be allowed into the house like how Amy competed to be let back in last year.

Ali believes her other ex is the one who applied to be on the show. Maybe he is waiting in the wings? Nate has talked about how glad he was his ex wasn't brought in since their relationship ended so badly. Dana has talked about her ex who now lives in L.A. with his new girlfriend. Dave hasn't talked about a specific ex but he did talk about how glad he was it was Michelle who came in for him instead of someone else. Sounds like there are some possibilities here.

The grid is the same as last year's--which got "messed up" after Amy left and then came back. It looks like whoever is doing the web stuff just copied the formatting.

Don't burst my bubble Stcollguy!!! I am not enjoying the show and hoping they are going to throw something in!

Yup, they're using the CSS (style sheet) that they created for BB3. I'm not gonna take the time to see if they made many changes (other than changing the file locations and names for BB4) though. <grin>

They may, in fact, be using the same javascript for the voting map, too.

--BOOM-- there goes my bubble....here is a piece of code from the page.

<link rel="STYLESHEET" type="text/css" href="/primetime/bigbrother4/css/bb3.css">

I really think that the twist for the year (beside the X factor zzzzzzz), will come about with the sequestering of the jury. They think they are off to sunny beaches, but I believe the rumor about a 2nd BB house for the jury. The house gets dull when the numbers dwindle, but I think there will be footage of the jury house.

I think the twist is bringing in either one of Nathan, Jack, or Dana's exes. Possibly even another ex for someone who already has one (Another ex of Alison, another ex of Erika, or maybe even an ex for an ex, like bringing in an ex of Robert). Ali Grodner hinted that everyone wasn't safe from getting a visit from an ex, even after the first episode. AS said that an old HG wouldn't be returning because it's expected by the HGs. We'll see

is it really? or is this left over from the QA thread?

Again, it is not in the LFP section nor have I seen it myself as I am watching the feeds. Purly speculation.
