Did I miss a sub-alliance somewhere? As @Nashvillenoted, there is an alliance of Cirie/Jared/Felicia/Meme called Brown Sugar Babes. That seems to be the alliance Felicia is most loyal to. 10 hours ago, enchantingmonkey said: Sounds like Meme must have done/said something that rubbed Cirie the wrong way. Cirie is talking shit about her with Izzy and Jared in the pantry. Cirie, who has created an alliance with virtually every person in the house, is angry that Meme might be playing the middle rather than give her undying loyalty to Cirie. And even funnier, Meme is actually sadly completely loyal to BSB. 9 hours ago, PhoneCop said: It's still early days and I tend not to solidify my opinion of a cast this soon, but my fear is they'll end up a cross between 23 and 20, where the cast looks great on paper but then half of them form an alliance that's too dumb/inept to really ever have a chance. Which isn't to say FOUTTE wasn't entertaining in their own way, but yeah, predictable, nonstrategic game. At this point, it's like FOUTTE vs. FOUTTE. Which, while fun, eventually it becomes really boring and frustrating to watch 1 group/person just steamroll and with Cirie there that almost feels inevitable. Ideally, Hisam would get picked for and win veto and Cameron would go. Cameron is 1 of 2 people I don't like at all (other being Jared). But I can't usually have nice things so I think the inevitable will happen and they'll be able to BD Hisam. Which, honestly, will provide at least a day of fun feeds but in the long run will contribute to the season becoming boring. 6 Link to comment

Lady Calypso August 18, 2023 Share August 18, 2023 Ideally, I want Cameron to go home AND for Hisam to find out about the backdoor plan, all so come Thursday, we can see the Pressure Cooker being played out the way it did back the first time, rather than the more modern result of the comp being done in two hours. If Hisam goes, there's really nobody who I can see fighting tooth and nail to win Pressure Cooker, so there will be a lot more drop-outs in a shorter amount of time. Whereas you know Hisam will hold his finger on that button for days, if he had to. 6 1 Link to comment

I'm just reading up on her shit talking with Cirie about Matt/Jag feeling sad about Reilly going and telling Cirie how unpretty Reilly is (untrue) and that they're all overreacting and all that. And I'm sure she said something about hating someone at one point. Yes, just another day of unnecessary mean-spiritedness from Izzy. I did appreciate that Cirie chimed in to explain to Izzy how Reilly is actually quite pretty but Izzy wouldn't hear of it. Not only is this group sore losers but they're sore winners, too. The funny thing during that conversation was that Jared made mention of how a week of power had gone to their heads but it was quickly dismissed and they went back to the shit-talking.

Nobody seems interested in helping him in game talk and is even making fun of him for being upset with Reilly going. They don't seem to understand, or care, that she was the one helping him out and that's more of his reasons for being sad. This is me being hopeful more than anything else, I'm hoping that America will step up and help him. She was kind when he began crying. And they are both Have Nots this week. Matt and Cirie were in the storage room after HOH and he told her that he had trouble knowing what was going on when everyone was whispering and/or talking at once and that Reilly helped him. Cirie was being empathetic, but after this past week I have absolutely no confidence that Cirie would try to help him unless it helps her, or maybe Jared. He's not in her alliance and she's a barracuda. I wonder if being on camera 24/7 might damage her brand, at least among the feeds viewers. 11 1 Link to comment

Ancedotley in my real life I feel like a lot more people are traveling this summer including me. I tend to be more into the feeds when I'm less busy. I also think the premiere in August sort of threw me off. I don't mind Cirie being on this season. If they were going to choose a former reality tv contestant at least it is one I like and not one I hate like Johnny Bananas. I still like Cirie. I think people forget on Survivor we see all the strategy. On Big Brother some of the better strategists didn't talk game all the time Dr. Will, Dan, Danielle. There is a reason why someone like Kaysar never does well at this game because he is game all the time. I think her social game could be better, this cast is a little weird because they don't seem to do as much group stuff (when I have the feeds on) it's a lot of 1 on 1 convos or trios. 3 Link to comment

And it’s not even her fault, really. She is less strategically savvy than I expected, but her personality seems on point. The thing I am resenting about Cirie is her secret advantage, planted there by producers (although she did agree to it, so..). And I get more annoyed every time Julie gleefully spills the secret to a departing contestant and we see someone like Reilly’s face fall as she realizes how she has been played— not by her fellow contestants, which is to be expected, but by the show itself. Then you contrast Cirie’s advantageous position with Matt, who hasn’t even been given the barest consideration. (And I don’t count the fancy hearing aid enhancement technology Grodson touts in her press releases— as I said in the episode thread, he wouldn’t even need that if they just dropped the damn audio-based challenges.) If Cerie can have a secret mole, then Matt should get a secret interpreter. Or a non-secret one, who stays by his side and is only there to translate. I actually think it would have been a fun concept to give everyone a secret partner. That could have gotten messy real fast, in a good way. But we can always count on the show to half-ass a good idea. I get why the schedule shift and Cirie BS are turning some people away, but I agree with @peachmangosteen that it’s a shame, because these have been pretty interesting, strategy-filled feeds and that’s what I live for. I hate the group activities. (If I had to watch the Cookout season crew play one more game of Mafia, I was going to throw a chair at the TV.) I’m just hoping that either Jared or Cirie goes soon and we can all get down to what we signed up for. 8 3 Link to comment

They were eating popcorn and he said he wanted her to know he found her very attractive and had a crush on her and to take what she wants with that info. She hugged him and left and he sat there alone for a while with his head in his hands 😢 Idk if she was plain out rejecting him to friend zone or if she was just too game focused like she should have been to take it any further within the game. The plan still seems to be Jag and Cameron and replace Cameron to bd Hisam. There’s also talk headed ofc by Cirie and Izzy of eliminating all the men, it’s like the Black Widow Brigade all over again.

Hmmm… depends on how Matt’s participation contract is written; if he could be considered an employee of CBS and/or Endemol, then they could be on the hook for ADA compliance. 2 Link to comment
dizzyd August 19, 2023 Share August 19, 2023 I found this transcript of the conversation between Hisam and Felicia earlier today and a I dare you all to participate in the drinking game. 12:27 pm Hisam and Felicia (Hisam is frantic holy shit) Hisam – I feel great, I am feeling so comfortable with you being HOH Hisam – Right.. if Matt wins (Veto) he’ll save jag.. right.. he’s not saving Blue.. right.. he’ll save Jag.. Right. Jag will pick Matt Right.. to play in the competition. YOu have those three people playing against you. Felicia – I have to talk to Matt again. I don’t fulling beleive he’s willing to blow up his game to save Jag. Felicia – Reilly had the connection with Jag, Matt was just onboard. he doesn’t have as deep loyalty to Jag like Reilly had. Hisam about Cam “His target is them” (The ‘other side’) hisam – he’s upset they campaigned against him right to the bitter end. We has a lot of animosity to them. Cameron is already fired up about them. Cameron has a chance to be picked.. right.. you know what I’m saying.. Like in the veto competition. Hisam – you just don’t want all three of them playing right.. you are going to have to put two of them up.. right.. if you put Cam up right.. I wanted Cam to go home anyway I don’t have any feelings towards Cam. right.. he’s a little bit sly Felicia says if Cameron wins the veto Matt goes up and if he doesn’t win their 7 decide who to evict. Hisam – Blue is the weakest of the three. She gives up easily. Hisam – if you are really set for Jag to going home I think putting Matt next to him makes it the highest likelihood Jag will be Stuck. Hisam – RIght right right right right.. Hisam brings up reasons for her to put up Matt instead of Cameron. RIGHT Hisam – RIght.. Whatever you decide WE are 100 percent behind you right and the target being JAG all day long we all want Jag out Right.. I want JAG out right. The thing about it is.. lookin at the numbers putting Matt up next to him.. Right.. then telling Matt listen.. I know you and Jag are close because you were close with Reilly and the truth of the matter is Jag is my target and I cant afford for you to basically get picked for Veto and take him off.. Felicia – Right Hisam – Right.. I need you competing against him .. right.. to endure he goes home.. right.. and I do think Matt would do that to preserve his game.. Right.. He wants to make a statement about the deaf community adn I do think he will turn on Jag but you have to give him the opportunity to turn. Right.. Felicia – Right. .. Hisam – if he’s safe.. right .. and he plays in Veto and Jag picks him as houseguest choice now.. and he wins.. now you have them both off.. right.. Felicia – right Hisam – right.. Felicia – right Hisam – this way you ensure one of them goes home Felicia – right right Hisam – Right (I’m not making these bloody rights up they are actually saying right this many times) Hisam – you get the animosity between the two of them. right.. now they are actively competing against each other Matt will distance himself from jag.. Right.. Cam is the safest choice Right.. Hisam continues to reiterate his reasons to put Matt on the block and Not Blue or Cameron. RIGHT RIGHT They hug. 1 12 Link to comment
enchantingmonkey August 19, 2023 Share August 19, 2023 It's not even just his incessant use of the word "right" but also his insincere tone of voice, the way he talks to most of them like they're stupid and his obvious grudge against the younger players who didn't choose him to be a part of their clique. This week is going to suck with him back downstairs. And he's still bitching and moaning about Reilly campaigning for herself, even though she's no longer in the house. The new villain is Jag, though, so he's going to beat the hell out of that drum unless Jag wins POV. 3 Link to comment
