Taking feeds down for 2 hours to fix the memory wall seems excessive. Are they recreating the entire wall?
The “live feed” message says the HG are filming something exciting or whatever. I hope they don’t show us the memory wall repair and call it entertainment.

The CO is a copy of the Brigade from Season 12 where each member of the alliance had a side person. Two members of the alliance sat in the F2 chairs as planned. When the remaining members of the alliance (Hayden, Lane and Enzo) evicted Britney (the last "side" person not a member of the Brigade) they told her all about the Brigade. She didn't take it very well.
I know Tiffany is torn between playing for herself (she should) and the "mission". When the losing CO members look back on this I wonder if they will think they squandered their opportunity to play BB to win. A win for Tiffany would certainly make her life more secure (single mom with ex spouse who pays no child support).

It does seem like a long time Rosem. I did wonder why they had a wakeup call an hour early on a Sunday, though. Any thoughts?

I hope it is a luxury comp.

Hwest, when Tiffany started to create her plan, I immediately thought: “oh, she’s doing a “Brigade” strategy”
I will never forget how hurt and devastated Britany was when she was told, and Enzo laughing nervously the whole time.
So I expect that there will be a lot of hurt feelings resulting from the “Cookout Brigade”.

Tresbien, Sundays are usually a free day, Veto meeting is usually on Monday. So it is curious why the feeds have been down so long.

Oops, feeds down again. Pets.

Feeds back, Hannah and DX in the bathroom area discussing where DX could get votes if he goes in the block. Giving him false hope that he could get Ky and Azah.
Others in the living room, chatting.
So, no idea why feeds randomly went down for almost 3 hours.

Covid discussion, Tiffany saying that everyone in the house except SB said they had it.
Feeds cut.
Oy.

Feeds back, living room chit chat, Big D is out of the back bedrooom! He is lounging on the lounger in the living room.
Lounging.
It’s just so weird seeing Big D outside of his native habitat, that I felt it was worth commenting.

Rosem, I think they are planning on keeping DX. SB doesn't know that, though.

So weird that Hannah feels the need to keep plunging in the knife when she knows the prey is already dead. If I was one of their throw away side pieces, I’d finish up my duties and never look back. Some of this isn’t game and it’s gonna hurt.
And I do hope BB gives a participation trophy to all the CO members that played for the greater good… whatever that is.

Oh, you think so, Bbnut? I would not mind that. I like Claire, but I sometimes feel like she could be a little more assertive. Her gameplay seems weak.
Keeping DX would really piss off SB, and won’t mind that, either!

Hanna and Ky spent forever going through scenarios. They determined that Claire would go after more of their alliance members than DX. I think he will go up and they will keep him...from what I got out of the long boring convos last night...I could be wrong, but think that is the deal. It's only Sunday, though...so a lot can happen.

I've got 20 more minutes of Taran left but Taran said despite the conversations last night, this week is a DX backdoor. Taran said that Ky talked to X and X said no for keeping DX because of the money and Ky concluded that he would rather SB get rid of DX (this week) so that he doesn't have to later get rid of DX and lose a jury vote.

I think the only ones who currently have enough BB bucks to play in the Coin of Destiny (coup d’etat) game are the Dereks.
If they evict DX, I guess DF gets the Coin of Destiny by default, and I guess has the chance to overthrow the HOH. Which is probably as close to winning HOH that DF will get.
So, this is why I think they are more likely to evict DX.
Unless BB does something to allow other HG to earn BB bucks.

Thanks, Gbcole! I got really bored with the convo last night and went to bed.

Bbnut, my strategy is to leave the feeds off and just listen to Taran each morning. It saves me from all the whispering that happens every dang time I turn on the feeds.

As usual, BB comes up with elaborate plans to stir the pot, and it basically falls flat or ruins the natural flow of the existing chaos/plans. They said there will be “other chances” for players to garner BB Bucks, yet each HG who got the most bucks promptly get evicted... the silly twist is almost over, hasn’t really gotten much airtime, yet it has negatively affected the game. Only Big D will be positively affected by getting votes from viewers (still not believing THAT...) and he will have power without having to DO anything, and will not be voted out for it either... I DESPISE this twist! BB should have told them they were not allowed to reveal their amount...

Calimom, I couldn’t agree more. Worst twist ever. So poorly thought out, overly complicated, and allowing a viewer vote by text only, in a season that has 2 HG with the same name.
What could possibly go wrong?
Everything.

It’ll be interesting this week, if DX does go, if DF will fall down and only get the $50. I think that would be somewhat proof that he was getting some of the votes meant for DX.

Derek F and Kyland in Have Not room, discussing strategies...
As usual, Big D is plotting his selections if he wins HoH. I don’t know WHY he does this each week. There will only be THREE choices, and they will ALL be used if veto gets played! LOL. This BB Buck win had gone to his head. He is taking all the glory for them getting this far. He’s dissing the women for making him do “all the work.” He says they just sit back, don’t volunteer to be on the block, and Ky doesn’t correct him and let him know Anaheim DID indeed ask to go on the block! The girls have done their work in the social game, while Big D was only social with Frenchie because he was physically attracted to the man!

I have debated about posting my thoughts on this but having been a BB fan since BB1 and I have commented on everything else, here goes:
Last week, Derek went to talk to Ky, after he had spoken with Hannah to let him know that he would throw competitions to Ky basically to prove his loyalty. After that conversation Ky, Xavier and one other person, might have been Tiffany were talking about DerekX and they were talking about who was going next. One of them made a comment that basically they couldn't wait for people to realize, after they had all been evicted, that the only people left were African Americans.
I felt unsettled about it. I read it that a group of people banded together to elminate everone of another race from the game and only they, of the same race would be left. What if, Travis, Frenchie and Brent had a conversation about they couldn't wait until the African Americans HGS realized that the only people left in the house were white.
It really disturbed me and has turned me off from this season. To me it is so ugly that this game comes down to one half of the house saying we will get rid of another race first. bleech.

All but one will get their comeuppance for playing the game this way instead of playing in their own best interest to WIN. Guess they'll be happy with the Wikipedia mention?

Well said Maris. It’s put non CO members between a rock and a hard place. There’s been subtle mention followed by nah, they wouldn’t do that…
