Cinder | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:13 pm     I don't think she threw ALL the questions she miseed- especially the one about Dana saying that Ali and Justin were the least likely question. |
Cliotheleo | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:14 pm     I thought maybe she did when she missed the first question saying that Justin was the MOST surprised at her being in the house as opposed to the correct answer which was the deal with Michelle. I thought either she had thrown it or she was REALLY self-absorbed. But as the questions went on I wasn't sure. I'll have to watch it again. |
Stingerman | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:21 pm     Ok I think I know how POV will work. All Compete for it. If by chance the voter wins the POV and decides to use it then that person would end up on the block. Actually quite simple if you think about it. |
Cinder | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:27 pm     I think Stingerman is right. I almost typed it a few minutes ago- but thought it might not be fair. What if a person on the block gets veto and uses it. Would that mean they could be renominated. (I know it doesn't - but if the 3rd person could be nominated- why couldn't any other person) However- if the 3rd person (who gets to vote who leaves) is STUPID enough to use the veto- she deserves to leave. |
Steveh | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:39 pm     I don't know how anyone could say Rob screwed himself by winning HOH. Are you saying he would've been better off right now if, instead of being HOH, he was looking forward to the POV competition? You know, the bird, the hand, the bush, etc. Plus, doesn't he still get to compete for POV? If he didn't win one of the two competitions this week he was most definitely out the door, so better to win one sooner rather than later (if at all). |
Imz | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:45 pm     Robert would rather stop picking his nose than see Erika win the 500k. I bet he puts her up. The can’t-go-over-rule is tried and true and I think it’s fair. I was amazed Robert had a chance at all; he never pays attention to what anyone says. If you had rigged a competition to keep Robert from winning, it wouldn’t have been much better than this one. Erika was off by 6 hours; Robert was off by 634. How much would it suck if Erika was evicted for being better at math? |
Lainee | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:47 pm     I have skimmed through here and haven't seen any reference so maybe it was my imagination. Didn't I see/hear Rob ask Erika out on a "date" when the game is over and the answer she gave was she "would think about it" cause she didn't want to upset him at this point of the game? If I did hear that, then maybe Erika will now tell him that yeah she will take that date with him if he doesn't nominate her. |
Steveh | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:47 pm     Cliotheleo - Check the live feeds. That "game player" Ali seems unaware that the fill-in-the-blank answers came from specific questions asked of the jurors while they were at the sequester house. At one point Ali grumbles that she "knows" she heard Dana say something while she was in the BB house which could have very well been true. But wouldn't someone "playing the game" realize that the fill-in-the-blanks came from the context of the sequester house? In other words, there's a different mental process going on for HOH competitors (or there should be) based on the CONTEXT for the fill in the blank questions. Julie was NOT asking the contestants what they thought they remembered one of the jurors saying while the juror was in the house, but how the juror responded to a specific question asked in the the comfort of the sequester house. As any good strategizer (i.e. NOT Alison) would realize. LOL LOL I will also speculate that if I tried to explain this to Alison she would grin at me and shake her head up and down and then when I left her immediate vicinity she would say, "Ew, he's creepy. I think he wanted to touch me." This is all in fun, right? |
Nexell2 | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:49 pm     Well, how do you like Arnie now? |
Steveh | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:51 pm     Lainee - He did ask her out on a date. He asked her if she wanted to get together after the show and she said you mean as friends, not a date and he said yeah friends (Pause) but what if it was a date. And she said she'd have to think about it. During the (Pause) I just noted it showed her grossed out in the diary room. Hope this helps. As to your question: I think at this point she'd tell him anything. I like to think that if I were in her ugly slippers, I'd be able to bring myself to do the same. LOL |
Cliotheleo | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:51 pm     Steveh, I said she was playing the game, I didn't say she wasn't a blonde. Re: "is this all in fun" if you mean your and my conversation OF COURSE it is, I ain't mad at'cha!  |
Lainee | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:56 pm     Steve...I have to say I would hope I could bring myself to say a date with you would be...ummmm...something worth anticipating. Or words to that effect without actually saying yes I will go out on a date with you! |
Steveh | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 07:57 pm     Clio - Well sure they are all "playing the game." It's like if some 21 year old drunk who's never played blackjack before sits down next to a veteran card counter in a Vegas casino and wins a ton of money while the card counter goes bust. They are both "playing the game." And one of them isn't playing it very well, not as well as the other guy, but still winning b/c luck and much other stuff (even more in the BB house) comes into play. I will submit over and over and over for Ali "playing the game" as we've seen her play it means just bein' Ali. |
Steveh | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:00 pm     Lainee - Don't forget they are in a house with beds where they SLEEP together. yuk. On the recent LF Robert has been touching Ericka just a leetle too much (yes taking SECONDS away from touching himself). What if he . . .oh god, I can't go on. The horror, the horror. I'm going to rake a cheese grater over my eyes . . . LOL LOL |
Lainee | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:02 pm     EWWWWWWWWWW...am glad right now I DON'T have the live feeds!!! What Erika must be going through right now...oh the poor thing! LOL |
Wendo | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:03 pm     Steveh said, "I don't know how anyone could say Rob screwed himself by winning HOH. Are you saying he would've been better off right now if, instead of being HOH, he was looking forward to the POV competition?" Absolutely not. Only that Rob won't have the "power" to get a specific person evicted. That power lies with the person who isn't nominated. As to your 7:44pm post, Steveh, Ali's not stupid, she saw that the HG's answered the questions at the sequester house. She's even commented on it a couple of times since the feeds have been back up. Additionally, it's very possible that Ali threw this HOH as well; and, that she is self absorbed so that why she thought Justin was most surprised seeing her. And, I disagree that Ali isn't a good strategizer. If that were the case, she wouldn't be one of the last four HG's. It's been pointed out in other threads where Ali has made specific and active moves to better her position in the house. Again, I think you're letting your distaste for Ali color your opinion for her as a game player. I don't dig Rob at all. However, I give him credit as a game player and strategizer because he will be one of the final 3. |
Gina8642 | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:08 pm     I think Jun is the most likely person to be walking out of the house next week. Robert really, really wants Ali gone, but he likes Erika the most of remaining three women. So, he'll put Jun & Ali. Erika would prefer to face Ali in the final than Jun. Erika votes out Jun. Bummer.... |
Amari | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:12 pm     Gina, I think you are absolutely right. Unless Jun gets the veto, she's toast. Maybe she shoulda kept the Jeeman. |
Steveh | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:12 pm     Results are not the only indicator of a good game player. Very few games are without a luck factor. Ali's stream of consciousness (or maybe unconsciousness) "playing" got her in the right place at the right time more than once. And she's a lot MEANER than many of the other guests (past and present) and that counts for something in a game like this. But being mean is not necessarily game playing. I've worked w/ people like Ali virtually every day for the past 25 years. Trust me, she ain't that bright. LOL As to Robert not having a say in who's evicted. Again, I disagree. He'll make a choice that will start a chain of events in motion; therefore, he DOES have a say. However and whomever he chooses WILL be a factor, maybe not the deciding one. |
Nana | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:13 pm     Does their math make sense.... At the beginning of the show Julie stated "Welcome to Day 61"....(61x24=1464 hours). Even if the ex's walked in the first hour of day 61 - that would be over Erika's guess of 1440 hours??? |
Cliotheleo | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:14 pm     So you think Ali's made it this far based PURELY on luck? Steveh, I think you and I are watching too different games. I wouldn't even say that about Robert. |
Ocean_Islands | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:16 pm     Ali is not smart because no way can she win the half mil based on how she has acted. On top of that she said she wasn't going to lie or backstab at all lol. |
Puzzled | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:21 pm     Unless Erika or Robert wins POV, I think Erika is toast, because both Jun and Ali will vote her out. |
Bigbrotherfan | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:28 pm     Nana, Julie stated the number of hours, from the moment the exes walked in. They didn't come in until day 3, I think. |
Cliotheleo | Wednesday, September 03, 2003 - 08:30 pm     No, I'm pretty sure the ex's came in the same night ...... I know they did (unless the originals didn't change clothes for 3 days.) I don't know what HOUR of the day that was. |
