Does he count as a floater? More like a "playing everybody else against each other by pretending multiple alliances" player. There's a big difference (a floater doesn't really promise anyone anything).
You could say that. But you could (or I could) say that if he's promising all these deals or being 'true friends' with all these other players; he's still floating. Its just an aggressive form of it.
To me, a floater is someone who takes info given in confidence and pretty much immediately uses it against the info giver, to play the sides against each other. A person who is actually playing the game to have a solid 3-4-5 person alliance, will yes share info, but doesn't do it to aggressively turn sides on each other. If they can use it well and effectively, that's good, but if not... sit on it until it works best to use it. That's what makes Derrick so smart and an actual good player. He's getting all this info and shares it as necessary, tells enough to build and gain trust. But what is so greart about his game is he's "wicked smart" about how to play the sides. For instance, as mentioned above, his working Frankie while telling him they are better off working together for a F-whatever alliance and being the actual brains & 'glue' of the BS operation.
Derrick is cerebral in his game approach. Frankie is just obnoxiously & aggressively floating from person-to-person and setting up all these dramas and hope he's left standing after all the imploding is done, and its down to the F4 or whatever.

I'm OK with Derrick and Frankie being on the Team America alliance with Donny, especially if it hastens the explosion of The BS.
I missed that live - read about it. I'll be honest, I don't really like Frankie. I'm not anti-homosexual, he just tries way too hard to be noticed. And he's this season's Andy. The gay floater.

I haven't watched the LFs religiously 24/7, but I know that Brittany doesn't like Devin anyways, but I wonder if she's picked up vibes from Devin and his new 'crush' on her. She seems to be avoiding him. She had to feel, if not see, hii eyes on her bikini-clad body in the kitchen earlier.
I'm waitiing to see if Devin tries to play the "I know we made a 'mutual deal', but I saved you... so how about a little gratitude?" card if there is actually something there to these new 'feelings' he's having about her.

Derrick is such a great player. He's so easy to 'trust', but he's playing everyone just as much - if not more - than anyone in that house.
He has at least 4 other players wrapped around his finger so tightly [Cody/Zach/Brittany/Victoria] and he's playing Devin & Caleb really well too. Not sure about Christine, but I'm sure there's a good thing going there too.

Dangit, I missed it. What was Devin was saying is a "done deal" at the 9:53 BBT mark?
[nvm: He's figuring out if he's got the votes to get rid of Zach if he pulls Brittany and puts him up]
-
From just a 'drama' standpoint, I'm hoping and praying that Devin uses POV on Brittany and puts Zach up in her place. Then Brittany blows the horn on the Devin/Paola deal to throw the BOTB comp. That gets her out anyways, but I think Caleb will 'force' the alliance to keep Zach. And if neither Caleb/Frankie win the next HOH, then sh*t gets very real for everyone next week.
I want to see Zach blow up the BS if he goes up this week, but I want Paola gone before him, so if put up, bite your tongue as hard as you can Zach, at least until after the Eviction (if you aren't the one sent packing).

Another thing I find personally hysterical is about how a lot of the people talk about getting the 'floaters' out and not wanting someone weak to win.
Uhh, guys, you are ALL floaters. Don't try and delude the feeders, let alone yourselves. You will all tell, whoever you are talking to, what they want to hear. Then run off to tell someone else what they want to hear, even if its the exact opposite. IE, kissing ass. Well, by definition (in my book), ass kissing = "Floater", by definition.
That's why Brittany and now Zach are in trouble with a good portion of the 'house'; they - now or most the time - won't put up with blatant dishonesty, call people on it, or when called out will own up to it. Although, I guess I really can't include Brittany in that (right now), because Devin's forced her to actually play the game the 'winning way' to save herself this week (and potentially in the future).
Frankie said it on tonight's episode in a DR session (paraphrasing); "This is Big Brother. Telling the truth is not how you play the game!"

So, I hate myself for being so 'addicted' to these feeds. Almost nothing truly good happens before 1-2a BBT, and living in the midwest, that's 3-4a for me. And I am not a fan of reality TV, I'll be straight up about that right now. But I just can't help myself. I have to see what could happen next.
And you all thought the Caleb crushing on Amber was weird and creepy; this thing with Devin crushing on Brittany?? I can't tell if he truly feels that way, or if he's 'playing a game' by making Frankie think one thing, but throwing him off his real move or motive.
I hate that I've been so pulled in - and I realize its all just "game" - but the constant lying, mistaken assumptions, backstabbing, and just general sh*ttyness just makes me feel horrible for finding any kind of curiosity or enjoyment/amusement in all this.

I haven't watched an episode of either of the 2nd or 3rd seasons of 'American Horror Story', but I have watched all of the Murder House eps. (Didn't originially - missed a couple eps and just gave up on it at the time - but marathoned them a while back)
Without having a true perspective of having seen the majority of 'AHS' episodes available; I also agree that MH was a great season of television.
The thing that made it so great, imo, is that it didn't focus on the gore and visual!"ick!" moments to keep people interested in the show. It was the mental depravities and expoloration of the human psyche that really made the show worth watching. Some of the things the characters did, especially JL's - or shock!moments - just made a viewer go "holy sh*t!". Thought all the actors/actresses did a great potrayal of their characters and never missed a beat, but it was Jessica Lange who stole the show.
I will have to watch the other seasons sometime, but 'Murder House' was/is worth the time investement.

Season 16 Live Feed Discussion: Keeping an Eye Out
in Past Seasons
Best case scenario tomorrow (or whenever it is) during and after Veto meeting;
- Devin pulls Brittany down and puts Zach up as replacement Nom; but does it in his usual horrible people-skills way and everyone is on to him instantly (why he put up Zach - using the argument against him and turning it around on Zach, ie "the way he talks to the women")
- Pao-Pao goes bonkers after seeing Devin not use his power to pull her off the block, thus meaning their 'throw the BOTB' deal went out the window, but the reason given for making the deal in the first place was to get Brittany out, and then he not only left Paola on the block, but took down the person he said he was targeting all along. (can't wait to see her initial reaction on the next TV ep)
- Brittany starts an anti-Devin/Paola campaign before Eviction (maybe doesn't, if Derrick/Cody/Zach say its in her best interest to keep Zach - assuming Zach is willing to stay)
- I would like to see Paola gone first, but for the pure drama of it, Zach going off on the BS - and thus ensuring his leaving this week - could make for some epic viewing
I think if Devin goes through with his 'Plan A', which is looking very likely... that Derrick/Cody/(Zach?) get Brittany into an alliance with them. I would suggest including Victoria, but they only need her as far as using her vote if Devin is up for eviction. But I think we all know she's down for doing that, regardless.
