Spunky | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 08:59 am     They still don't know it's going to be a Live Vote in the DR on Wednesday and by Tuesday they should realize something is up. If they don't tell them in the DR that voting is going to be done Live, the plasma screen will show "Expect the Unexpected" and they'll realize it has to do something with the vote. This will give them something to think about how they really want to vote, they could decide at the last minute to change their vote. However, the only possible person I see doing that is Ali and everyone will know it was her. I can't see the others changing their mind and the reason for the Live Vote has more to do with keeping the suspense for the tv audience. The only poor devil will be Nate who will be left hanging till show time... |
Boberg | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:06 am     I don't see how the "Live Vote" this week will spice up anything but Tuesday in the house as the hamsters try to figure out why they are not being called to the DR to place their vote..if BB tells them why they are not voting Tuesday then even that spice will be null and void. |
Spunky | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:24 am     That bad, eh??  |
Laisey | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:30 am     To me a live vote this early in the season only means that the HGs aren't giving them enough material for the show. |
Mystery | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:31 am     I wonder if the HGs will realize it's a live vote or if they'll wonder if the vote won't take place at all? |
Spunky | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:41 am     Ah Mystery... I'm afraid the only person who will hope for that is Nate... but you're rigth, they could be fooled into that kind of thinking...boredom does that to people... |
Xarph | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:44 am     Arnie would best spend the live TV time doing a longer, more interesting HOH contest. Of course that has a lot of downside potential also from a production point of view. None of these people are professionals. Julie is a newsreader, not an event coordinator. When we see the FOTH for over an hour for a five minute nomination ceremony we know that they are doing it over and over and over again. We see how often they need to FOTH during any of the kompoteashcions (wink at Costacat) that we do see. Given the lack of intelligence in this cast, it is hard to believe that they are even going to let them do live voting. |
Puzzled | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 12:22 pm     Live voting will be just as boring if we have to sit through all of them saying fakey nice things about each nominee before they say who they're voting for. |
Chiparock | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 12:28 pm     Jun will probably choke when she has to say something fakey nice! |
Auntie | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 01:11 pm     nate is putting up a seriously good case to justin right now - justin appears to be thinking about going with it - jack may just be the one to go! |
Sbw | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 01:21 pm     If Justin could find a way to hold on to Nate until the final 2 without the others finding out he had an alliance with him, he would end up with the money because of the agreement for the "extended" J3 (including Dana) to vote for one of theirs in the final. |
Thunder | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 01:32 pm     That's interesting how Nate came into HOH to talk to Justin just after Jun was in there getting the guys all worked up about Jack. Very interesting. |
Jigglywigglyjun | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 01:33 pm     is justin going to keep nat? |
Auntie | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 01:42 pm     i think so, jiggly, if he can talk robert into it - and jun is sold already - nate stays. robert is so dumb, nathan's argument is sound. |
Jigglywigglyjun | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 01:44 pm     Robert is fighting Justin on this idea.. and I think if they keep Nat Robert is gonna lose trust in Justin... |
Grooch | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 01:47 pm     Jiggly, they need some help with the live feeds? Can you help? Please??? I'm at work and can't get my feeds here. |
Spunky | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 04:28 pm     Is it true what Nate said that probably they wouldn't make up their mind "till eviction night". Does it mean they know it's going to be a Live Vote? I did not admire his last pitch to save himself, not on those terms. The idea was to go after one of the Stooges not to protect them and that's what Nate is promising.... if so, I'd like him to get out of the house now and let Jack do it. Thank goodness Jun and Robert hate Nate's guts so much that he'll go anyway. The Live Vote may delay Nate's next move, since I was hoping for Nate to know one way or another and then spill his guts to Jack and advising to go after Jun and Robert... Justin just redeemd himself for believing Nate, however he can't vote and so in a way he's powerless. Robert, Jun want Nate out and Jee, Ali and Erika as well. He just doesn't stand a chance. I prefer him to go than stay on those terms. |
Charvie | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 04:37 pm     Robert's desire for Nate to go is that he doesn't want to have to share Justin with Nate. Of the four of them Nate is far more athletic and more the type of friend Justin has than Robert or Jee is. Jee could care less because he is secure with his life and doesn't really plan to spend the next umpteeth years hangin' with Justin and Robert. But if Justin and Nate were to get close and bond, Robert feels he'd be out swingin' in the wind without his new buddy Justin to help him cope. In other words it's personal for Robert to not keep Nate. The rest see it as strategy. The backfire is that Justin doesn't want to leave and may strike a deal with Erika to stay put. Which would really put Robert's undies in a knot. |
Twiggyish | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 04:44 pm     I didn't see it as personal, but it does make sense. Robert is a more emotional person. He does not seem as confident as Jee or Justin. I just hope Jack stays. |
Charvie | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 04:46 pm     I hope Jack stays as long as they win HOH. other than that if they go now I can stop watching the show a minute later. |
Spunky | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 05:12 pm     Yeah, I agree that about Robert, he doesn't want anyone in their trio. He thinks three it's all it takes to be in the finals and he wants it to be him, Justin and Jee. NO girls at all. I wonder what he'll do when his turn will come... I too hope Jack stays but he has to win or else he'll be up again and again while the trio will get stronger and stronger until not even Jun could stop them. |
Wendo | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 06:32 pm     Spunky said, "I did not admire his last pitch to save himself, not on those terms. The idea was to go after one of the Stooges not to protect them and that's what Nate is promising.... if so, I'd like him to get out of the house now and let Jack do it." Not only that, but he's doing exactly the thing he's mad at Ali for. The only difference is, she did it first. So, he really is being a hypocrite if he continues to whine that it's all Ali's fault he's going to be evicted. Gawd, I didn't realize what a whiner Nate was until this week when he's been on the block. I have to agree with Spunky, I'm at the point where seeing Nate leave would make me happy. Ugh! |
What555456 | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 06:53 pm     I don't see that the fact the voting is live will have any impact on who they decide to vote out. They will still each be called individually into the DR to vote. It might have some impact if the vote were done in front of all of the other HG's. But it is not going to be done that way. All we are going to see is what they would have done in the DR anyway. |
Misslibra | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 06:55 pm     Against Nate to go, yes unanimous vote. |
Spunky | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:26 pm     Wendo, right'o. I liked Nate more when he accepted his fate as an unlucky draw (the POV comp) and prepared to leave in a more honorable manner. His begging for a second chance and making promises he couldn't keep while turning his back on the two people who supported him, Jack and Erika, was a big turn off for me, and when he'll suffer the humiliation of being voted out unanimously I hope he'll realize how silly he looked to us all. So long Nate. You were a disappointment and maybe all the Bo.. Maris, Kal.. of these boards were right. |
