mooses August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 Pretty soon, Julia will have to stick with Austin even after Liz is evicted because she hasn't really built relationships with anyone other than Vanessa and there aren't that many options left. Steve, maybe? So I guess she could try to work with Steve and JMac but one if not both of them will probably be involved in booting Liz. I don't know, I haven't been able to predict anything these fools are going to do, so I should just stop trying; they'll probably evict Austin first anyway, if Meg gets involved in the strategizing. That's why I'm so surprised she dropped Vanessa so fast. She's all Julia has really had, and it's clear she prefers Julia to Liz or Austin. Liz has Austin as a shield, Julia has Vanessa. I guess she figures she'll stick with Austin no matter what because, even if Liz leaves, he won't want to upset Liz by betraying her. She'd come in second to him on final two though because he's been doing all the work. They've been saying that Steve is loyal to them, but I don't think it's as sure as they think. They don't know how close he's been with Vanessa, but I suspect they're number three in his mind next to Vanessa and John and he'll be happy to cut one as long as it's by someone else's hands.

mooses August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 [*]More free time to FOCUS on working the other HGs. From this HOH, I've realized they're all big talk and no action. It seems like they're too worried to even speak to other HGs. This would have been a great week to establish some independent ties, but they both willingly let Austin turn them into one twinny mush. But without him, I have no idea what they would do. They talked privately about hating John and Becky, and now they're besties after one conversation. Julia said Austin makes her sick two days ago, and now he's her mouthpiece. It's like they can't retain a thought! 4 Link to comment

From their conversations I don't think it's so much loyalty, as the Twins think The Two Hot South Beach Girls can lead The Geeky College Boy around by his dick any time they want. Which I don't think is true - but hey, if it makes them feel better, Don't Stop Believing!© Edited August 15, 2015 by Nashville 1 Link to comment

cocobeans August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 This is the most fickle set of houseguests I've ever seen. They all plot with such conviction, and then two hours later do a 180. And then 90. And then a 270, just for good measure. And somehow they always settle on doing what I don't want them to do. It's insane. Turtle - It reminds me of the subs doing "crazy ivans" in the movie Red October (the moves to check to see if another sub was trailing them in their wake to hide the turbulance). 2 Link to comment
partofme August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 I'm really upset with the whole way this week is going. I need JMac and Becky to both survive this week. JMac needs to be given a power or Van or James needs to be backdoored. 3 Link to comment

And then a 270, just for good measure. And somehow they always settle on doing what I don't want them to do. It's insane. I cannot stand Austin and I'm not crazy about the twins, and I fear that the F2 is going to be some combination of them. We're getting to point that three votes is going to be very difficult to overcome and they'll coast right on through. If Becky goes this week and Vanessa (or anyone other than Austwins) next week, it'll be down to seven people with only four voting. Even if one goes that week, you're left with an unbreakable power couple super late in the game. If the trio wins more comps, they'll be no chance to evict them. I know you all know this, but I can't stop obsessing about how colossally dumb it is. Going back a few days, I think Vanessa is above-average in intelligence, but I think Vanessa thinks she is significantly smarter than she actually is. Her inability to recognize that anyone other than her might actually be thinking or planning or figuring things out is infuriating. And I think it plays in to her emotional outbursts- she is shocked anytime someone doesn't appear to be totally fooled by her "brilliance" and just loses it. I think her Jmac outburst is a great example of that, telling him that there's no way he figured anything out on his own. Or going off about how "illogical" Becky was being. It's kind of bratty. They flip and flop because they play way too emotional. The HOH listens, to the HG on the block but they ignore the sourse from which it came. They ignore the deflection to others so they take what they say as the gospel and they get pissed at one of their alliance members. Austin has really no reason to distrust Vanessa and he knows or should know that she is with him and the twins until f4. Right now it's virtually 4 on 4 and does he think the others will bring a voting block of 3 along. But in actuality, he doesn't give a crap about Julia. IMO the only thing he actually thinks about is dipping his "toe" into Liz's pool. Edited August 15, 2015 by Waldo13 4 Link to comment
Callaphera August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 So I haven't checked on the feeds yet today... did Johnny Mac kill Vanessa in her sleep? Or did security manage to stop him? 18 Link to comment
Katesus7 August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 Austin has every reason to distrust Vanessa. If Clay and Becky didn't suck in that BOB, Austin would have been gone because Vanessa was successful in having James throw the comp to get the blood on Jackie's hands. Vanessa can talk all she wants about how honest and loyal she is, but she is incredibly good at twisting things around so that she's completely justified in lying and changing her loyalties. Austin saw this firsthand; he'd be stupid to trust her after that week. 7 Link to comment
me5671 August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 (edited) I want Becky and John to survive this week, too. Meg can leave anytime. Please, BB gods, let Meg be voted out this week and have the Austwins waste their HOH, putting a huge target on their back. I'd like to see Meg leave too. However, there's almost no chance of that happening. Think about it: who could be nominated with her who wouldn't be voted out over her? Meg is so useless that she's a shoo-in for final 5 as the big targets/threats take one another out. Edited August 15, 2015 by me5671 Link to comment
gina64 August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 My ideal Final 2s: Becky and Johnny Mac or James and Johnny Mac. My prediction for the actual Final 2: Julia and Vanessa.

perfectstorm August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 Eh, they are only at Top 9. Anything can happen between now and Final 2. I'm sure at one point Shelli and/or Clay were predicted to go far in the competition. 2 Link to comment
Briana84 August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 Also...another thought on breaking up the Austwins...how likely do you think it is that Austin would beg to be evicted next if Liz was evicted? I mean I could see him trying for HOH so he could be the hero who avenges her, but if he didn't get it, he'd totally volunteer to be sent out, don't you think? 5 Link to comment
CrazyDog August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 If Liz goes, someone should talk about cute production staff guys being at the jury house. Austin would beg to go and leave so fast on eviction night that he'd leave a cartoon-style hole in the door. 11 Link to comment
peachmangosteen August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 Eh, they are only at Top 9. Anything can happen between now and Final 2. So true. This season is is not like last season with it's very predictable winner. However, I will be very shocked if Meg doesn't make at least F4.

Katesus7 August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 Peach, the best part was (and I am so going to hell for finding this funny) when they came back, everyone was fast asleep, and people in the chat room were joking that they drank Vaness's kook-aid and were all dead. James sprawled out on his bed was pretty convincing. 6 Link to comment
pennben August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 (edited) Okay, from what I can suss out, Steve and Meg were chosen to play in veto. I don't know who the third one is. The twins are going to emphasize to them that they want the nominations to stay the same. They are talking about how Becky should keep them the same as well (hahahahahahaha, okay, they admit that they understand why she would take herself down). Liz is now talking about how Austin makes the HOH so easy for her by doing all the work for her. Sigh. I'm starting to root for an Austin win over a twin win should they be the last standing, because HE IS DOING ALL THE WORK for them!!!! Edited August 15, 2015 by pennben 2 Link to comment

He's a tad flustered & flummoxed. -AdamAndEvel 2:01 PM Twins laughing at Austin because he has tuna in his hair now. -AdamAndEvel Like his hair doesn't smell bad enough! Also: 2:02 PM Twins whining that now the HOH will smell like tuna. Austin told Steve to tell JMac to not throw it but not use it if he wins. -AdamAndEvel Is he for real?? 6 Link to comment
ByaNose August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 Becky winning would kill Vanessa. So, that would be something to look forward to. I like Johnny Mac (hysterical DR's) but he really looks like he's asleep even when he's awake. I'm not sure if he even likes playing the game & I'd be okay if he left. It would be awesome if Vanessa was backdoored just for the sure insanity of it all. In the end, let's just get Steve outta there. I.just.cant.with.him.anymore. 3 Link to comment
peachmangosteen August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 +1 to all that, ByaNose. I hope the final 2 in this comp are Becky and John and he throws it to her then gets evicted. That would crack me up! 5 Link to comment
Cutty August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 (edited) JMac deserves to go home if he throws it. The funny thing is he would go home if he threw it to Becky. There's no way he's that stupid, right?
