Good morning all. Veto ceremony today. We expect Nicole to keep the noms the same.

[JeanK]

Good morning everyone. I'm bored. Since nothing good going on in the house I have a chance to say ...... I've been part of this site for at least 15 years. I recognize the regulars. Here's the funny part. I get all star struck if one of you mention my name or comment on my posts. Seriously, I really do, lol. I really like everyone here. Thank you all.

[belle1]

BBU does give us a special place We can be bored, angry, frustrated and excited with the game and players and safely share with each other. I am a permanent passenger on the BBU train!

[LCnSummer]

Just thot of another thing I've reallllly enjoyed over the years.

Is watching the 'Clash of the Titan BBU'ers' who've been around a while and are so good at explaining there opinions in contrast to the others. Always fun and always respectful of each other in spite of TOTAL Disagreement with the other.

Sadly this season has been devoid of any major ongoing Titan Opinion-a-thons.

In fact, I've not gained as much of my annual BB weight due to snacking while reading said missives.

[Walleye]

LdotCdot, I both enjoy and miss the clash as well. I didn't realize it until you mentioned it. Thanks.

[Lynette]

Good Morning Jean and Geo and everyone. I'm getting like those HG's, not sleeping well, and thinking BB 24/7.

The most game I heard yesterday was Corey's brilliant idea to bribe Vic with the 5K to vote out Michelle. He said it would solidify their bond to Vic, and repay him for giving up 5K in the comp where he took Veto so Paulie would go home. Nicole thinks that is perfect, so she can now relax and not be worried anymore. I think it is hilarious they think Victor would even consider voting out Paul.

[JeanK]

That's a great idea.

[Kodi08]

I mean they are already giving Victor the 500k, might as well give him 5 more

[beckyd30]

But correct me if I am wrong, why would Corey want to pay Vic for sending 'his boy' Paulie home that week, other then it didn't send Corey out? It would be perfect justice if they give him the 5K and then he votes Paul out and blames Corey for the vote - I would do that. Vic can even state he was bribed to vote Meech out so he voted Meech, Corey must have been trying to setup him up for the fall in Paul's eyes by voting Paul out instead.

[breakingwave]

I just wish they had done this before. Veto renominates and if Vic hesitated they would switch his name with Pauls. I think Paul is very nervous Vic might blindside him as he has gotten close to Michelle.

[Melisandra]

Woke up this morning early with a case of insomnia... Laid there trying to fall back to sleep but all I could think about is how the jury votes are going to land and who should take who to final 4,3 and 2.

LOL

If anyone takes Victor to Final two - Victor Wins
Nic can only win against Michelle
Paul has a good chance agaist anyone BUT vic.
Corey can win against Nic

Not sure about James - He may pull out the vets and the boys votes if he takes Nat or Michelle
Nat would win against Nic and Mich
I think Mich is second against everyone though.

If people were thinking about Jury votes they would vote out Paul at this point as Michelle is a good goat for final 2.

[Delvoire]

Yeah, Michelle and Nicole are both great Final 2 partners, aside from Nat with James.

[Pammer]

Wow Melisandra, did you read my mind and post it? My thoughts regarding the votes to a T.

[belle1]

Good post. Keep them coming

[Annanjredhead]

I read that the drone was a naked blowup doll and it was meant for James...saying he was a pu__y!

[Luanne]

Thanks for that information. So it was really meant for the house guest to see.

[belle1]

Saw picture of doll on another BB site. I did not get that message was for James. Message cryptic open to many interpretations

[Annanjredhead]

Made a small donation just now. Best I can do since I am 75

[KennyERJ]

Thanks so much, @Annajredhead! Every bit helps.

[Luanne]

Good morning everyone. I did not watch any feeds yesterday. My thanks to all the ones posting in the Live Feed Updates. I really do appreciate it.

I understand why Nicole is sending Michelle home. She has made a good move this week. Paul/Victor will not go back to James/Natalie. James/Natalie will not put up Nicole/Corey. She is sitting in the middle. Right where Paul/Victor thought they would be when Paulie went out. Things change on a dime in the BB house. I just do not understand how she expects to beat Paul/Victor. She needs to spend some time with James/Natalie.

If James/Natalie do not win HOH, they will be nominated this next week. If James wins, he should put up one from each side. He should tell Nicole, I never bonded with Paul and Victor. Natalie and Michelle made their own nominations. Yes, they wanted to keep Victor over Paul but never over Corey. You fell for Paul's actions last week. They did that just to try and get Corey out. If they had had their way, Corey would be in the jury house. I did not fall for it and voted Victor out. I stood with you guys and you have jumped ship.

If Natalie wins, she could tell Victor, I did not want James to vote you out. He had a final deal with Nicole/Corey and never planned on voting Corey out. I had no control over James vote. Maybe, Paul/Victor would take her to F3.

I really think Victor/Paul will be in the F3. Just not sure who the third will be. Victor will take Paul to F2 if it is his choice. Not sure if Paul would take Victor.

[belle1]

Agree completely with your post Luanne.

[Lynette]

I haven't heard Paul and Vic go so far as to say who they wanted as their 3rd. Probably Corey if they plan to roll with the F4. We know who they want out after Munch tho, JAMES!

[beckyd30]

He should put up Nicole, so she gets a feel for the chair and if {BIG IF} she makes it to F2 she can't use the same claim Derrick did about never being nommed.

[BettyBoo]

For anyone who's curious, here's the Zodiac signs of the HGs. It explains why I instinctively reacted to some players more negatively or positively than others did. Also shows why some bond instantly in house and others immediately clash. I know it's not science, but it's funny how most people nod when they hear the general traits of each sign. Well, see what you think.

Aries: Natalie, Tiffany
Taurus: Da`vonne, Frank, Victor
Gemini: James, Paul
Cancer: Bridgette, Nicole, Zakiyah
Scorpio: Corey, Paulie
Capricorn: Michelle
Pisces: Jozea

[Pammer]

Well, Aries is the baby of the zodiac. Taurus, just plain STUBBORN. Gemini, the twins, can flip flop, and go from 0 to 100 in a flash. Cancer, the moon child, heads in the clouds most of the time. Scorpio, just remember the turtle and scorpion fable. Impulsive and vindictive. Capricorn, the GOAT, nuff said. But Pisces, are you sure Jozea is a Pisces? He must have been born on the cusp of Aries, cause Pisces are usually very intuitive and level headed. No I'm not a Pisces, I'm a Taurus...My Mom was an Astrologist, so what I know, I learned by osmosis. JMHO.

[LCnSummer]

Great job Betty,

NOW we know why there is so much infighting and drama, no Libras in the house. The powers that be are smart in that regard.

No manipulating peacemaker floating around scattering 'get along dust' to ultimately guide the gang in the way that they should go. ( ;

Survivor is also very careful as to the balance of signs each season. You can find strategy blogs discussing how the Survivors personality truly impacts their game and those around them.... whether they know that about themselves or not.

[misscmm]

But, but, I'M a Taurus and I'm not stubborn. I'm NOT! I really am not stubborn!!!

[ManaDee]

Someone said in one of the posts last night that Nicole got an edit that made it look like her decision was strategic, but can someone tell me how her edit was deceptive? I know a lot of people don't agree with what she did, and thinks it's stupid, but nothing that they showed was different than it happened, other than the order of those convos maybe. She did get turned off of Nat and James during their convo with Paul (I mean, Natalie insisted in front of the whole house that she tried to get James to switch his vote, and that James considered it). Big mistake on Nat/James part to have that convo where Nicole could hear them, since Nicole is always paranoid that way. She also did tell Corey she wanted to keep her promise to Nat/James, Keep them both good with the ducks, and Michele was the one person in the house she knew was targeting her directly (and shes right).

I don't think this was a bad play for her this week, and I think most people that do believe that either because they want the ducks out (or just think she should in order to win), don't want Jamalie to leave, or don't like Nicole.

James and Nat will be upset that ducks are still in the game, but when Nicole explains to James that she KNOWS that Michele was targeting her, and she thinks it's unfair to ask her to keep someone who was only a number for Nat/James who wanted Nic out of the house, I still think James/Nat attempt to keep working with NiCorey to target the ducks, since I think they know better than to think they can use the ducks against NiCorey, after how everything has gone down the last two weeks. And Nic can tell them I could easily have put Nat up next to Michele but I wouldn't break the deal I made on the wall with you (poke poke James)

There's always a chance Nat or James win HOH this week, not Vic and Jamalie once more target the ducks, because they know they're the strongest players. If Vic were to not win veto any week, I believe all the HGs (beside Paul) will agree he needs to go.

I've been saying for a while Nic is playing for second place anyway, so I actually think this is a decent move her for (even though I'm rooting for Paul so I was immediately pleased with the turn at the beginning of the week before I even realized how it happened)

[ManaDee]

Cute - I don't specifically remember them saying them simply don't want James and Natalie to have a chance to win. I know they've said multiple times the ducks will be harder to beat, and I've heard them say multiple times they don't trust James/Nat and their F4 deal (which would be correct, since Nat's ideal F4 includes Meech). If they were to get out Paul this week, they don't trust that James/Nat might not take a shot at them next week (esp if you know, Vic wins VETO) because it would only be them and Michele.

If you can tell me where they said they just don't want Natalie and James to have a shot at winning, I'd like to go back and see what I've missed (sometimes I have to skim). I do know they consider themselves and the ducks to be the strongest players, so they think they all deserve to be at the end together (egos every year lol) but maybe I missed something else?

And I agree sophie that it might not be the best for the end game, but I do see it as best for her to get through the next couple weeks. And while you have to think ahead, trying to play for two weeks from now usually gets you clipped while you're not paying attention. So I can't fault anyone for giving short term more consideration than long term. And Nic is obviously not thinking far enough ahead to the jury so. lol.

[beckyd30]

See, I thought James was talking about wanting Victor to stay when Paul was still on the block against Vic, in effect, telling Paul YOU WERE THE TARGET to go home Homey. Not that she was trying to get James to change his vote post POV ceremony, but I didn't have access to the feeds to see if she did.

[belle1]

ManaDee Nic did say she did not want James and Nat to get the bribe money or get to F2. Don't have exact dates or time but over the weekend. Our updaters did a very good job of capturing most significant conversations so you may find it in the LF updates.

Beckyd30 it was not that James wanted to save Vic but he wanted Paul to be evicted. Nic and Corey did as well and told Nat and James prior to noms. Both Nat and Meech went back and forth on Vic vs Corey after the renoms. Then on Wed pushed James really hard to vote Corey out and save Vic. James did listen weighed pros and cons but his bias was always to vote Vic out not Corey. He kept touching base with Nic and Corey to tell them Corey was safe.

[breakingwave]

My latest feeling about BB is that Nicole is on tHe right track for herself. This year has been so devisive that I have made my choices going backwards, who I wouldn't want to win. I have never been a James fan the wishy washy of his play, sleeping a lot of the game, the girl friend thing that he hides behind and his unwillingness to come out and state his feeling but just strike out when the opportunity falls his lap makes a true snake for me.Natalie is an opportunist which is not my kind of person, she is super phoney and takes advantage of James which does not make her a good player to me. I don't think she has been helpful to any of her past teammates preferring for someone to feed her success. Michelle has also been on mMy no way list,she has slept through most of the game and despite others regarding her as a sharp fan I don't see it. I wanted to send her out right after her throwing up crying scene from the rope comp. She justdrives me crazy.
So that leaves me with Paul,Vic, Nicole, and Corey. I can live with Vic winning. I would like to see him and Nicole in the F2. I think Nicole has played this game
Some may not agree but she was active in the beginning ,then played low key and won comps when she needed to. Hate her voice but I do think she thinks strategic so she should at least be considered. Paul also has worked hard not how I like all the time but he has paid his dues. Corey has also been at least a good team member loyal which is rare. Now Mr. Vic, he has been the best example of BB to me this year. Comp winner, loyal , and willing to do what he needed to do such as cleaning or cooking or just have convos so he is my choice out of this group for the winner.

[BettyBoo]

Speaking of James, I've mentioned before the vision I had of him at the end. Here's what I saw:

James is on screen right, grinning as he looks screen left in a close-up shot. My first thought is that he won the game, but it may be him winning AVP? No words, just his grinning face. Well, we'll see if I was high on Dr. Pepper or not.

[OhThisHouse]

JUst for info: James slept thru the first 1 hour and 55 minutes of BBAD last night. How does he even think he will get AF this year?

[KeninVA]

Afternoon all,

Have not been very engaged with BB this week. Looking at the board, Nicole is actually in a fair spot, but could improve her odds, I think, by evicting Paul.
The argument Michelle should be making to Nic, is that she is alone, and knows it, with the end game here, won't nominate either Nic or Nat, since she wants three women in the end game, and with three women, they have a chance to be on a level playing field for final competitions.

If Paul goes, Vic is isolated, he has to deal with James and Corey, and in a Corey/Nic vote off, Nic would stay, getting votes from James and likely Nat.

In a James/Nat vote off, Corey and Nic could vote out Nat, with James then falling to her.

The path she is on, might get her to F3, but she is unlikely to outlast Vic or Paul in the most likely to be used Part 1 endurance comps, and will be hard pressed to win the Part 2 against either of those boys. In that event, after part 2, I believe Paul and Victor will take each other to the end, and so the game will end at Part 2 results are known.

In other news:

nonobadfish I am surprised that we won't have another DE. I, for one, do not want another reset week (which is what this is).

Ladycop My prediction was predicated on the first announcement : we would start voting at 10 P.M. EDT for ACP. When they announced that voting would open at Midnight PDT, I knew that the wall comp was likely the mechanism for bringing a player back.

Nothing to see today, until after POV Ceremony, when I expect Nic to keep noms the same.

[belle1]

Missed seeing your posts KeninVA. Nic's buy in with the ducks is frustrating as a fan of the game and James. I think it possible that the ducks will oust Nic and Corey and have Nat at F3. Paul would then take Nat to F2.

[LCnSummer]

I have no idea who I am supposed to have an affinity for. What signs are Libras supposed to be good with?

HA, We LIBRAS get along with e.v.e.r.y.o.n.e.and.stuff.

And if not, we just get along with them in spite of themselves.
