Flora, between Salem and Olney.

My other brother lives up in Litchfield, and I'm now in the Quad Cities (NW IL on IA border).

Oh, and Kat, my sis graduated from SIU-E, and a brother attended there a semester as well (he ended up at Eastern, though).

Redstar

Hello to you, too, BBfan! Are you still in IL?

Oh my gosh! I still remember Kalekona's post from the Tues (6/29) Spoiler thread. Kalekona said: "I have to say if Ali wins HOH after all this build up you'll never convice me it wasn't fixed for her to win."

Great call.

Nope. I too am fully convinced tonight's HOH competition was rigged. Too many obvious signs:
1.- Luxury competition = spinning: nothing to it for an ice skater = Alison
2.- Build up all the way to end of Tues (7/29) show was all about Alison with cliff hanger vow, "I will win the HOH competition".
3.- Dumping balls into tubes: no skills involved, just pure luck = too much of a coincidence that Alison won by such a wide margin over the other HG with Jack (who did not practice) close behind. All it would take for a ball to fall more easily into a tube is a fraction larger opening that wouldn't be noticed unless measured.

What a disappointment. Maybe they should just hand over the money to Alison.

The comp. had to do with blue balls and you think that was something Ali was a pro at ............ hmmm...........

But Alison did practice. I clearly remember Dana and her crew looking at them out the window and making rude comments. Alison and Nate were out there all the time. I certainly don't believe it was rigged.

Well, Dana if you check the archives said to one of the guys that she would "cook his b*lls and eat them" as way of a threat, I guess. So, Dana is quite the b*lls expert, she mentions them quite often in her conversations.

LOL Clio...blue balls...took me a minute, but I get it!

Jadar

Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 10:50 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Jack did not practice and was only one ball behind Alison. There was NO skill or method involved to have made balls dump better. It was very random. Just pure luck or something else.

Spunky

Boy, Dana got slammed left and right, the show aired some nasty comments about her... either Dave, Jack, Erika, of course Ali, even Jun, and even the BB commentator nailed her, notice how he stressed the word "betrayed"!!
She won't like to see herself on this episode, for sure!!
And to add insult to injury, her fierce enemy Ali wins HOH!!
Well, are we going to complain about the show now?? It's getting better for me!!

Kalekona

Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 10:56 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Well i think the views did get to see something tonight, that Ali is a vindictive little girl. Glad to see Dana wouldn't take the bait.

Spunky

Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 11:07 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Ali could never match Dana's vendictiviness...

Wendo

Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 11:13 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Jadar, I must disagree about Jack not practicing. Yes, Nate and Ali practiced the most. However Jack definitely practiced more than the Jee3 boys and Jun, combined.

I do not believe it was fixed. I've never believed that BB fixed the competitions.

As for Dana not taking the bait...well, when the feeds came back on, she sure seemed to take the bait. She railed for over an hour about Ali winning HOH. However, Ali went over and apologized to Dana for her comments during the live show. Ali did that on her own. That seems to me to be pretty mature.

Jadar

Wendo - Never say never. Atleast not after watching Tues. Night's show. There's never a guarantee which person will win a comp., but many can be made to favor a particular. Probably not so much because they *like* a HG as a person, but more for ratings.

And that spinning chair competition couldn't have any more obvious than if they just announced over the mic who they wanted to have the dinner date. BTW, the observation was made by several hg's also.

Can't blame people for getting suspicious after blatant signs. When things are too good to be true, they usually are.
