Here are 25 Reasons why I think Vanessa is one of the Best Players in BB History. Let me know what you think. Thanks.
1. Vanessa won 4 HOH and 3 vetos, more than anyone else in her alliance and coming close to the record of other great players in BB history.
2. She was able to last 3 1/2 hours on the part 1 final HOH which was quite an accomplishment and looked extremely painful.
3, James recognized her speaking and influencing skills, and said "I want Vanessa to be my lawyer". He even asked her to help him to get to the bottom of a rumor he had heard.
4. With a brief comment to Julia, she was able to influence her to choose Austin during the bowling Veto competition (who was most likely a F3 alliance member).
5. She was loyal to her alliance until she needed to make a big game move such as evicting Austin (a close alliance member).
6. After evicting Austin, Vanessa was able to talk to Liz to gain her trust back at least to the point they agreed to take each other to the F2.
7. Vanessa recognized she would probably have the votes to win against Liz (even though Austin said he was going to “poison” the jury). It also sounds like she would have won against Steve also.
8. When James was mad at her and he went up the HOH room to talk to her after winning the veto, he ended up apologizing to her as opposed to the other way around (after they finished talking and smoothing things over).
9. When Vanessa was on the block, and the house essentially had her counted out and in "hospice" mode (similar to Dan when he was making plans for his funeral), she flipped the house in practically 30 minutes (starting with the conversation with James).
10. Vanessa was able to plan multiple moves ahead and determine multiple game scenarios. Using the skittles/m&m's for strategy planning was an example of this.
11. On Rob's podcast they admitted she was the "dominant force" of the season and one of the best “game strategist”.
12. She showed class by giving kudos where credit was due (to Steve during the RHAP interview).
13. With the exception of one question in the final part HOH she would have won the game as opposed to Steve winning.
14. She left the game after being voted out with dignity. She hugged Steve and Liz and did not go storming out (unlike when Austin’s left the BB house).
15. Dan G stated "In Big Brother the best player doesn't always win unfortunately for Vanessa. Vanessa played her tail off she should be proud"
16. Dan also said on twitter: "Great to see Vanessa go out with class. Her saying good game to Steve on the way out makes me wish she won."
17. When Dr Will asked the jurors how many were in there due to Vanessa's action, practically everyone raised their hand but Austin (although I think he may have reluctantly raised his hand at the end).
18. Steve admitted "She is a Derrick, she is a Dan, she is a Dr Will" in the backyard interview. He also said "she played the game phenomenally" on the View.
19. During a DR session, Steve gave credit to Vanessa by saying "I admire your game play. I have no idea how you got Austin to put me and Johnny up. I have no idea, but I am amazed"
20. Steve also said Vanessa is the best female player in years, possibly ever.
21. Becky recognized her as a very dangerous player, and later said she played a good game. Shelli had similar comments. Many of the housguests would go to her for advice (such as Shelli saying she had to talk to Vanessa).
22. Vanessa will be remembered and compared to other great female BB players, such as Danielle R, Dani, Janelle, and Rachel.
23. Julie Chen asked to see Vanessa's hands because "she had her fingerprints on every eviction".
24. Even after the game was over, she "misted" Austin in the backyard interview and talked him down very quicky since he was still upset about his evection (after she apologized, and they hugged afterward).
25. Even Zingbot said she was playing a "masterful" game
