The FOTH Game
Justareader | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 01:21 pm     I have been surprised by how much direction to the HG's we have heard and not gotten FOTH!!! |
Costacat | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 01:43 pm     I'm actually WISHING for the FOTH right now! |
Sbw | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 01:55 pm     Costa, you got your wish. Now wish it away. |
Costacat | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 01:57 pm     *After* I get something to eat, Sbw. I needed to take a quick break and it was too riveting to leave while the cams were focused on the HGs. Give me five minutes, and I'll wish it away! <wink> |
Sbw | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 01:59 pm     OK....wouldn't want you to miss anything exciting! |
Tobor7 | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 05:15 pm     Heard Alison talking about Justin's family situation. He never sees his family on xmas. Seems his father's brother killed his father--- THEN FOTH. |
Bastable | Friday, August 01, 2003 - 06:09 pm     I saw it too, when the board was down for maintenance. Here are my Word notes: Alison was doing her nails on the patio, talking to Erika. The subject of Justin's mom comes up. Ali says "He wasn't talking to her when we started going out. First of all his dad was murdered by his brother-in-law [[?? This is when my ears perked up so I missed that bit]]. Then his mom married this other guy and he lived with them for a while--" A nice one-minute FOTH. JUICY! |
Bastable | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 12:53 pm     Robert gathers everyone for the Veto Meeting. Robert: "All right, everybody ready?" -- FOTH! Then after a minute or so, the FOTH became four different shots of the back yard. I wonder why BB wanted to do that instead of treating us to the theme song? (Not that I mind.) When it comes to today's Veto Meeting, we're playing the BOTH game. |
Hamsterlady | Monday, August 04, 2003 - 09:01 pm     Just went to FOTH...don't know why....but the lights are out! Someone turn on the switch so that when we go to FOTH we can at least see something! |
Bonzacat | Tuesday, August 05, 2003 - 11:22 am     Sound of small plane (not jet) overhead. Jee looks up and says, "I haven't seen one banner yet." And, FOTH. |
Bastable | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 03:33 pm     I just want to say that, for the record, I preferred the FOTH view they had last year. This year's is straight-on and flat. |
Costacat | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 04:32 pm     Some BB lackey just walked past the moat and looked like he was pondering which boards to remove... Just thought I'd share! <grin> |
Corriecat | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 06:02 pm     Earlier today Jack and Erika were at the table outside looking at the area setup for the HOH competition. Evidently there are cubes with the pictures of evicted houseguests on them. They were trying to remember everything they could about those houseguests in case it was a trivia question game about them. Jack mentioned one of the pictures was of Dana and they cut to FOTH. When they returned Jack was saying "I'm sorry I forgot." |
Bastable | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 09:52 pm     Has anyone else noticed that BB seems to be using camera switches instead of FOTHs? Like, just now in the living room, Erika, Nathan, and Jack were rehashing the HoH competition that Justin won. They were speculating on what the next question would have been had Justin not won, and the conversation was veering dangerously close to the "rigging" question. Then, in mid-conversation, all four feeds switched to the back yard, where the rest of the HGs were talking. Why not just split the feeds 2/2 on the two conversations? They just wanted to censor the one conversation from us, IMO. It's the same effect as a FOTH, except under normal circumstances, it wouldn't get recorded in The FOTH Game. So from now on, if anyone thinks a feed switch is designed to keep information from the viewers, please record it here as if it were an actual FOTH. We'll figure out what BB doesn't want us to know. |
Tobor7 | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 09:57 pm     I agree 100% with Bastable. Also... they don't really need FOTH. Isnt't there always a camera they could cut to? |
Bastable | Thursday, August 07, 2003 - 10:10 pm     Justin jumps in the hot tub. "Justin, please go to the Diary Room." Justin says that if they really want him they'll call again. "Justin, please go to the Diary Room." He heads to the DR and three cams go to FOTH. But Camera Four doesn't--it follows Justin into the Diary Room. As he enters, towel around his shoulders, he says, "Horrible timing!" And the BB voice says, "I'm sorry, dude. It was down to you and--" Now, FOTH for real on all four, with music. |
