Good morning, Lexie (and thank you and Rob "Ring of Fire" the Admin for being awesome and working round the clock to make BBU the excellent place it is!).

Morning everyone who follows.

I feel like a broken record, but oh my gosh....THIS SEASON. Never seen anything like it. The closest to this debacle that I can remember was the night that Rachel discussed her nominations for 12 hours straight (on and on and on with all of us watching here at BBU) and changed her mind one jillion times. It got so ridiculous that we filled pages and pages laughing because she was so flip-floppy. But all of that was BEFORE the nominations happened.

Never, ever, ever have I seen strategy so bad that the HoH makes a quick emotional decision based on manipulation and then another Co-HoH goes along with the decision (buys into it so fast and so fully that she is willing to make a nasty statement about someone's faith IN A NOMINATION SPEECH THAT WILL BE ON TV). After that you'd think, quick decision or not, that the die had been cast and they would feel an urgency to go ahead with their plan, right?

But no. They cry and realize they were manipulated within one hour. Michelle didn't even realize until after the noms that Nicole and Corey totally control the vote if Victor and Paul are on the block. With their kind of decision making/flip flopping, who knows who the target will be by the time Thursday rolls around (or even by this afternoon?).

This strategy-for-a minute-style of BB is not my BB. But at least there is drama for the Mo Drama Mamas! And I'm happy that even if they can't send Nicorey home this week, the girls have remembered that they don't trust Nicole.

Who of this group will do well in this memory style PoV?

I'm off to breakfast group...

**sdkgeo** · 08-20-2016, 07:26 AM

Morning nono and everyone.

I think Paul will be good in the memory comp. Actually any of the five, except maybe James should do good. It doesn't seem like Nicole and Corey are even trying to remember this stuff. They wake up when there's an alert, mumble a few words that were said in the Report, and then roll over and play footsie or go back to sleep.

I know Paul is a manipulator and they probably should get him out, but I am with Nat and Michelle on the emotional, get Corey out train. Actually I'd rather it was Nicole, but the girls will want Corey to go up. He adds nothing, so it is time for him to be off my screen.

**Raineyc** · 08-20-2016, 08:24 AM

I feel so bad for James with all of Natalie's Victor is ao great talk last night. Smh. It was obviously making James uncomfortable.

**KeninVA** · 08-20-2016, 09:31 AM

Morning all,

Chaos, tears, fear and loathing in the BB House! Nat and Michelle nominate Vic and Paul, and then immediately regret what is actually a good game move for them. Corey was always a back up, and they put both Paul and Vic up in order to ensure that one of those two was an option, since they wanted to break up the most powerful couple in the house. The fact that Paul and Vic can get into the girl's head, and turn them back against Corey/Nicole the minute the noms are over, is a testament to their social game, which coupled with the comp wins, makes them absolutely the most dangerous players in the house.

I expect, even if Corey goes on the block, that Paul or Vic is going home this week, to be part of the return to the game comp next thursday. Nothing to see until after the Pov comp, except the hilarity of betrayed house guests, Nicole sweating bullets and whining about how unFaiiiiirrrrr!! everyone is being, and two little girls who can't make up their minds.

**BettyBoo** · 08-20-2016, 10:09 AM

Paulie is still the constant in the game, talked about over and over for the 'horrible' way he played the game. Oh my goodness, he lied, manipulated, and put them at each other's throats all while promising safety to each one. Ah, you idiots, it's called Big Brother and you are all doing the same stuff!

All I hear is 'we had a plan', 'if they'd just stuck to the plan', I was never coming after you', or 'I don't lie'. Bull crackers. Vic and Paul keep parroting Paulie, we had a team of five then we duke it out. The only thing that changed was the members of the group of five.

This is just a game of pin the tail on the donkey. First it was Frank, then Paulie. Now Paul or is it Corey? Keeping ANY pair block is dumb, no matter who at this point since they control the vote. Each of the three pairs is bound one to their partner first with Michelle as the dangerous floater because she can go where the power is.

Vic and Paul are the most dangerous because of their strengths in comps, manipulation, and their ability to be social. Natalie and James have played emotionally, using more gut than logic. (Honestly Nat you're upset because somebody listened in on a conversation you were having?) Corey and Nicole have tried to stay under the radar (and covers) out of the line of fire, only surfacing to be sure they're still safe.

The returning HG can/won't change the house with so many combos of possibilities. It is amazing how fast Paul can flip the House on a dime to another target. Why they would ever trust him after they've seen him stick the knife in his buddy Paulie is amazing to me. I'd be thinking if he could do that to him, he'd do it to me. He continues to say, why would you think I'd go against my team - because you have already!! Meanwhile Vic holds it in, smiling and playing it cool, while he waits to extract his revenge. I wouldn't be surprised if he survives he uses this nom to get Natalie next depending on how the buy back occurs.

Corey departing will weaken Paulie if he comes back in. Vic or Paul depart/return and they could return to exact revenge on James/Nat. I'm surprised nobody has pointed out that James as well as Nicole has never been nommed? I'm catching up on BBAD and I'm getting the 'So what, never cared'. For crying out loud, we're back to Vic and the Nicole date thing from two months ago!!! Don't know if I'll be able to watch these people much longer.

I'm just waiting to see their faces when the buy back is confirmed and that pool for the Care Package will expand to contain the Jury too. Not even Michelle has calculated all that into the equation. Only reason I'm sticking in right now. And no it's not just a Paulie thing-smile. It's just I'm so sick of the yadda yadda yadda conversations. Over and over the same bull hooey. Rather like our year of politics, can we just get to the final vote.

(been writing this epic for over two hours between phone calls from friends wanting to chat and normal morning stuff, so may have hit stuff other posters have already uploaded. Just need to do my BB venting-grin)

**BettyBoo** · 08-20-2016, 10:23 AM

I find it hilarious that they're just counting NOW. Paulie had everything counted weeks ago, knowing for example there were over 400 planes. If that's the HOH comp, he'll crush them. And they're only peeved that some cats were covered by a blanket since they didn't think of it first.

So Paul is sleeping with Nat in the HOH bed, while Vic and James are bonding in the Have Not Room. Clever clever.

So they've been PIE'D as Have Nots? My Boy Paulie is there in spirit if not in body.

Watched most of Paulie interview with Jeff and he emphasized again that James was his 2nd guy next to Corey. Don't know why he'd wanna blow smoke now, but he did underestimate just how important Natalie was to James and how much his crude comments about her flipped his game.

Listened to all their conversations about visiting one another after the show. Have the feeling they all won't be feeling so Bueno about one another after the show, no matter what they say now. This has been one bitter season.

**BettyBoo** · 08-20-2016, 10:40 AM

Watching Paul sleeping with Natalie, on his back with a baseball cap shielding his eyes is giving me a Donny moment because of the beard. Then I see the ugly tats and pulled back to reality.

Note, I could sleep with a Klieg lite in my eyes. I've been known to fall asleep in classes and at work. Have no problem sleeping in a bright room with tv on. It would be my only skill in that House.

(Note-acquired skill from my mother who slept through a tornado once, no joke.)

**Raineyc** · 08-20-2016, 11:03 AM

The fact they Corey and Nicole just went to sleep, they deserve to go home. Never get too comfortable. I have no idea why they trust James. James has shown he will always do what Natalie wants.

**belle1** · 08-20-2016, 11:24 AM

Lexie ROCKS!!!

**~Linden~** · 08-20-2016, 11:29 AM

Lexie has not slept since she woke up Thursday morning, put in a full day at work Thursday AND Friday and stayed up again last night. As far as I know she's still up. (I hope she is getting some sleep though). What awesome Admins we have!

**belle1** · 08-20-2016, 11:39 AM

Has anyone else noticed that Vic has said several times that James is the mastermind behind all the game moves? He said it again last night about both he and Paul being on the block. This is the same thinking from the time Jozea was in the house. I am so hoping James still has some loyalty to Corey and votes to evict either Paul or Vic. Otherwise he will be on the block with either a Paul or Vic HOH.

**~Linden~** · 08-20-2016, 11:40 AM

Now.... I cannot believe Natalie and Michelle put Paul and Victor up!

James has been wishy-washy all season. Glad I took my foot off the James train. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love James' personality but this game!

This has been the most personal game since season 6. I do not like this type of game play.

Paul and Victor have played the best game in my opinion. I hope they are F2.

I never understand the push for an all girl final. I am always pulling for one of two things at my finale. Either the best players or who I like best. It's never about boys or girls. I could not care less about boys or girls.

**aprilshowers** · 08-20-2016, 11:42 AM

Listening to Victor go over details from the weather reports with Natalie shows exactly why it is dangerous to keep him in the game. He would be good at both physical and mental comps. He is the one in the house who could possible win his way to the end of the game if he is not sent back out soon.
