Season 18 Live Feed Discussion: Their Lives are Almost as Boring as Ours!

[Wings]

I am not this optimistic but there is a slight chance to save Day.  It relies too much on these wimps going against Polly's wishes though. 

--------------------------

Move ahead to 2:03 AM BBT as Zakiyah talks with Michelle over the possible renoms. Michelle is a little worried about what Paul might do but Zakiyah says she hasn’t a clue what Paul is going to do even though he told her just a few hours ago. Zakiyah says it could be Da’Vonne going up since she volunteered, which surprises Michelle, but even if Day goes up Zakiyah says it better be Bridgette going or she’ll be upset.

Zakiyah and Michelle say they’ll only need four votes to keep Da’Vonne around and mentions it’ll be up to those two out there, but I’m not sure who she’s referencing. James and Natalie are in the kitchen at the moment so it might be them. If it is then I think she’d have James on board but I’m not so sure Natalie will vote Bridgette out, but they’re going to need her vote if they want this to work.

With eight votes in the mix we could see Victor, Corey, Paulie, and Nicole voting against Da’Vonne. On the other side we’ve heard Michelle, Zakiyah, and James want Bridgette gone. That leaves Natalie in the middle. If she’s willing to cut her ally Bridgette and side with James in this choice then the decision would go to Paul. He’s said repeatedly he wants Bridgette out but then he’d have to tie-break against how all the other guys in his team just voted. Hmm.

So do I understand correctly that the care pkg up for voting tonight can't help those on the block this week?  Bummer. If Da' leaves, I'm officially out of players to root for and will just have to go with the least offensive players and they don't seem to really be playing.  

I find myself again wondering about all the sympathy towards Bridgette I'm seeing on other sites. I know if I was in that house and witnessed her little-girl play acting, it would make me want to vomit. That together with the fact that she was aligned with enemy #1, makes me understand why people in the house were avoiding her. I know there's lots of petty stuff being said but Bridgette only knows about it because people like Frank told her. The other house guests weren't mean to her face. And the "bullying" thing was thrown out there by Frank to try to win some sympathy for Bridgette and hopefully get people to feel sorry for her and keep her.  When Bridgette claimed she was bullied, she gave examples like nobody rooting for her--that's not bullying, that's being on the other side of the majority. And she never owned up to what she was saying about the other house guests behind their backs. I also thought it was interesting how she said in a DR last episode that she really didn't have any friends in real life either. Maybe there's a reason for that. 

I get why people don't like the ones who are saying the petty stuff but it seems to me this bullying claim has been blown out of proportion. I felt the same with Tiff--I just didn't see the outrageous treatment and think both women were playing it up as much as possible for sympathy. It just surprises me that so many people are rooting for her because of the "bullying"

Paul sure is milking that HOH robe.  It's gotta be hot outside and yet, Paul's out there wearing that robe.  LOL

Natalie would not vote against Bridget.

Despite all this back and forth, in the end, the house majority will rule - as it did with Tiffany and Frank  Even though Frank campaign to keep Tiffany, in the end he voted to evict her.  Even though Paulie wanted to keep Frank and evict Bridget, in the end he voted to evict him.  They all knew that the house numbers were against them.

The official rules say, your favorite HG, nothing about those on the block not being eligible.  

http://www.onlinebigbrother.com/big-brother-18-spoilers-americas-care-package-official-rules/

WEEK 2 – July 31 to August 5th
The winner of this care package could single handedly flip the house by preventing two house guests of their choosing from voting in next weeks eviction.

This will not help Day.  It would be a waste because I think the odds are, she will go.  Now if she keeps it a secret and survives she would benefit because I think she will be on the block again.  Big if.

Day is definitely going.  NO chance of a tie.  AT ALL!  LOL. 

 

JOKERS:

Paul walks out to vic and Paulie says to Paul that if Paulie was still on the block the fatal 5 were going to send him home. (he says he caught them scheming)

Paul: so If I put day up is she 100% gone
Victor/Paulie: GONE GONE GONE *they count the votes.* Say they have 5 votes to get her out at least.
Paul: They were trying to get me to put Natalie up (Z/Day)
Paulie: Of course they were. Zakiyah thinks she Is smooth bro. She just had a conversation with me, saying we need to take you out soon.
Paul ***eyes get very very wide***
Victor: REALLY!? REALLY?! She said that?!
Paul: In what context did she say this?
Paulie: She said you know Paul Is really good man, first like everyone wanted to get him out, but now everyone loves him. We should get him out. I think letting him go for too long would be dangerous. 
Victor: I was talking to Bridgette and she told me that day told her to bad mouth Nicole so Nicole would be the favorite to go on the block as a replacement. She Is scheming
Paulie: They are schemers bro. We need to clip them.
Paul: *Shakes his head* Clip Day this week and Zakiyah next week?
Paulie: Boom.
Paul: Win a comp bro
Victor: Exactly, win a comp and put us up.
Paulie: The only girl I am worried about winning ***** is Nicole and Michelle and Bridgette, but Bridgette is on our side and after this week she will be on our side even more.
Victor *** tries to chime In like he Is apart of the boys *** (no one really listening)
Paulie: Yeah and I told bridge the only people after her are Zakiyah and Michelle.
Paul: Tell bridge If she goes after me, Im killing her. 
Paulie: If she doesn't win anything and do what we want we can clip her, but now we can use her as a vote. 
Victor: yeah Ive been talking to her a lot/being nice/trying to get her on our side. She Is really liking me. 
Paul: No day is getting on my nerves. Z scammed me!
Paulie: No, you know why she said that? She was trying to convince me to put someone other than day on the block. Michelle told her that Paul has a good chance of winning the whole game.
Paul: ***** Michelle! You cant say ***** like that. 

[TimWil]

Hah, Day and Z's days certainly are numbered. I'm glad Paulie is not only done with her he's scheming to get her out next.

Sure she would. She'll do what 'the house' wants/what James tells her. She's done with Bridgette anyway.

@wings707 @Callaphera The DE is not this Thursday, so I assume it'll be next week. The jury does start this week though, so Day will be alone in the jury house for a week.

ETA: Apparently Michelle said Chinese tourists are a problem because they like to take dumps in the street. Like what? Cancel this season, everyone's garbage.

I have been thinking about the DE. And it's possible we might not even have one until after this return ticket twist is over. Do they really want someone to get evicted in the first eviction of the DE, then go back into the house just to get put back on the block if it's a DE and then right back out again?

That's true. I feel like they wouldn't just randomly do something like a DE though. I'd think it'd be scheduled. But who knows.

This got me thinking about the return ticket and I've reversed my position, I think they must have rigged it. There's no way they want this twist to just not happen.

Yes they have.  Julie was holding James envelop.  If I am correct we did not see him hand it to Julie.  Did I miss that. 

If Day gets it she won't be evicted during DE.  I think she will have immunity for next week.   Victor did, didn't he?   Who do we think they want to come back?  I have no clue. I would think they want some action in this predictable mess and Day would do that.  She will be pissed.  

Since we know the voting block is not thinking about strategy I am going to guess that James gets the next care package assuming he is favored by the casual viewers.

Frank handed it to Julie right before he sat down. 

No way they will give them immunity, they didn't give it to Victor. They won't give it to this person. 

They for sure know who has it since they numbered them. 

I don't think they rigged it, only because there have been other Twists in the past that just didn't work out. That's the nature of the game. I'm sure they have something else in place just in case it doesn't get used.

OK, I thought Victor had immunity.  Well, this is impossible to rig, then.   They know who has it but they may not get eliminated by Aug 25th.  

[Callaphera]

Honestly, Julie could easily have a second envelope near by or be handed one by production if they really wanted to rig it. The camera isn't on her and her hands throughout the whole ordeal, though it would be painfully obvious to the live audience. If they stacked it with employees, they might get away with it. It's not impossible to rig the envelope is all I'm saying.

ETA: So basically, if we hear about a sudden change (or even just a change) from having a live, public audience to an audience full of employees and production plants in the next three weeks, I assume the envelope opened will have the round trip ticket.

Oh, lawd.

If she did, she volunteered before the original nominations because, if you didn't volunteer, you wouldn't look like a team player and Paul wouldn't be happy.

Da'Vonne has all the signs she's going up - she recognizes no one is telling what the actual plan is, just to stay calm (which is exactly what she did to Tiffany). I'm not sure if her acting oblivious is just her fishing for information and seeing who will tell her the trust, or she's actually clueless. And, unfortunately for us, with Da'Vonne gone, we'll be getting full Paulie/Paul mastermind edits. 

ETA: On the Twist, I don't see how they'd be able to rig it, but they have to want to. Victor coming from the Battle Back was pretty boring - someone like Z/Victor/Michelle having the return trip ticket would be just as bad as it not being used at all.

[AndreaK1041]

It's pretty sad that the game is at a point where they give the viewers a power to choose someone to take away votes and everyone seems fairly convinced it doesn't matter either way. The timing of this one is really strange. If voting is open until Friday people could waste their votes on someone who isn't in the house anymore. Also it seems the "void 2 votes" and "super safety" affect the same elimination week? Am I misunderstanding?

I'm going to vote for Z for this one. Maybe she will get a clue that she's low on the pecking order and do something once Day goes.

Impossible? Really?

Rigging this would not only not be impossible, it would not even be hard. We saw on the show that it's just a slip of paper in an envelope. So Every envelope has two slips of paper, a RT and a 1-way. Julie simply picks out the one she was told to pick before the show. Unless Julie is a complete fumble fingers she ought to be able to pull this off smoothly.

If they had wanted Frank to have the RT he would have. I think they wrote him off. However, I'd expect to see the RT if Day leaves.

Not impossible at all.  I am not sure where they have their envelopes but production could easily put something into the envelope when the houseguests are in lockdown and are not able to see what production is doing.

I enjoy "Polly" as a demeaning nickname because it reminds me of parrots, and Paulie has done nothing but parrot Derek's and Cody's strategies.

It's exactly that.  All he does is PARROT Derrick's words, Derrick's game, Derrick's ideas.  He wants to sound and act like Derrick.  To me Paulie and Polly sound identical, west coast.

It's "Polly" as in "Polly wanna Cracker" not as an insult to females, believe me, we wouldn't want him as representative of our sex!  (speaking for myself of course.) 

Day calls herself Day, so I have no problem with that.  It's shorthand, like calling Nicole "Nic" sometimes, or Bridgette "Bridge" and I honestly have no idea how to spell Z's name, and Z is cute and much easier to type, especially when you are quickly writing what someone is saying in a post.  Natalie is "Nat" for me.  Victor sometimes becomes "Vic." as well. 

Stuff happens fast on the feeds, long names get shortened.

[Wings]

Yes, I believe there were 2 pieces of paper inside.  Julie peeks in to look inside the envelope rather that just quickly taking out the paper.

It just surprises me that so many people are rooting for her because of the "bullying"

I agree.  Bridgette was fine as long as she was attached to the cock of the walk, and in charge, and flaunting it, and spilling every single thing any woman told her to Frank, effectively gutting her Spy Girls, giggling about Frank putting up her "best friend" and saying "You know best Frank."  She would be a HORRIBLE ally for a woman, she needs to suck up to men, just like she's doing now.

She's a big reason any chance of a girl's alliance working failed.  Frankly, so is Day.

Tiffany was shunned and isolated.  That's not bullying either, but it was cruel.

That's the thing.  Day's game was SO SLOPPY in the beginning, running around, telling too many secrets, paranoid about Tiff, she, like Frank, played WAY too hard and too fast when she didn't need to, now when she needs to, she's sitting back.  She's one of the few with a brain in there, but I think it's just too late to repair the damage she did to her game early.

I wouldn't trust Day or Bridgette in there, because their mouths are too leaky.  Of course, I wouldn't trust many of the people in that house, and you shouldn't really, because there is only one winner.  Still, you have to have someone around who can both "be loyal and careful for a while" AND to win some comps to help you out.  Day does neither.

It will be a huge loss to feedsters, but I completely get why she's going out.

[SiobhanJW]

I disagree that Day will be a huge loss to the feedsters. I barely see her on the feeds- she sleeps a lot, wakes up for a bit schemes and then goes back to sleep. I see her more on the show in the DR then I do on the show. At least that's how I feel. Haha. I feel like Tiff & Frank were more a loss for the Feedsters cuz they were always everywhere.

Yep. I'm still rooting for Da'Vonne because she's a lot of fun to watch, but she broke up every alliance and relationship she had too early by overplaying. She needs people that want the same things she does, but she played her cards all wrong - and I really do think one of the biggest mistakes she made was that Tiffany stuff because it was so unnecessary. She should have regrouped, but the Showmances were already started their rise at that point. She wants to lay low, low, low now, but it's too late.

I'm not looking forward to the Paulie-is-Derrick edit. Can they at least show how unlikeable he is?

[J.D.]

About the "Polly" thing:  I thought it was a slam on women, giving Paulie a female's name thereby labeling him as 'weak' and 'girlie.'  I never made the connection between "Polly" and "Polly wants a crackers" to mean that Paulie's parroting someone else's game.  Maybe that's because I don't think he is. 

Just saying.

---

About the envelopes:  They would be super easy to rig.  If ALL of the envelopes were to eventually be opened, then it would have been much more difficult.  Still, like zibnchy mentioned earlier, each envelope could contain both Round Trip and One Way cards.  Julie just picks whichever card TPTB instruct her to.  Notice how Frank didn't get to open his own envelope?  I thought that was sketchy.  Why not let the evictee be the one to open their envelope?  That would add to the excitement for the winner.

True,  I think the hope is that she may use her care package wisely and cause a shift in the house.  That is what the loss to us would be.  Will she?  We don't know.  

Would she tell or keep it to herself is the bigger question. 

Michele might be good to use the help in the right direction.  Hard to know with her. 

The link I posted above shows Julie opening the envelope.  Sure looked like it had 2 cards by the way she looked and then took it out.  Here it is again.  You have to sit through an ad first.

I see her more on the show in the DR then I do on the show. At least that's how I feel. Haha. I feel like Tiff & Frank were more a loss for the Feedsters cuz they were always everywhere. 

This week?  True.  Every other week?  That woman has made things happen and is the only one in there who might break up the guys.

You're right, but I think Da'Vonne gets the HGs moving and shaking. All her crazy scheming makes them talk, play and worry. 

Exactly.  She has and does, just not this week.  I'll really miss her.  I'm furious at Z for not cluing her in, but Z cares only about her imaginary babies with Polly, after the wedding of course, which she's already planned.

About the "Polly" thing:  I thought it was a slam on women, giving Paulie a female's name thereby labeling him as 'weak' and 'girlie.'  I never made the connection between "Polly" and "Polly wants a crackers" to mean that Paulie's parroting someone else's game.  Maybe that's because I don't think he is. 

Just saying.

 

Have you HEARD him on the feeds?  Derrick says this, Derrick and Cody said that, Derrick told me to cut any women that gets too close, Derrick says onandonandonandon  He never shuts up about Derrick and Cody's advice, Derrick told me to do this, Derrick said to watch out for that, Derrick Derrick Derrick.

Thus, parrot Polly.  Nothing at all to do with women.

Of course he's not playing Derrick's game, but the THINKS he is.  He's not nearly smart enough.  He's playing a Jesse game, maybe Caleb's, with enough of Derrick's sometimes misheard advice to choke a bull.  He's winning too many comps, he's dictator levels of bossy, he has no finesse at all, he takes too much credit, his ego shows. 

Derrick made other people think everything was their idea, he faded into the background, he never boasted.  That man had skills.

Would she tell or keep it to herself is the bigger question. 

(referring to the care package.)

They aren't allowed to do that, they have to open it in front of everyone from what I've read.

On a side note...wtf is up with Julie's hair in that clip? She have a quickie before showtime? Jesus

Yes, Day's game was bad and had a lot to do with why we have this situation.   Who else has the possibility of stirring the house?

Bridget, Nicole, Z, James, Victor. Paul and Cory are in Paulie's pocket. 

Day or maybe Michele.  <shrug>

Natalie and Michelle talking, could this be the start of a friendship/alliance? 

I missed the beginning.

Too bad the women that could ally and do something are either dickmatized or hate each other.

Because Bridgette is not Natalie

On a lighter side note...

[Wings]

  Natalie and Michele are talking now.  Friendly chatter, no game.  THAT might be a fruitful connection.

Since we know the voting block is not thinking about strategy I am going to guess that James gets the next care package assuming he is favored by the casual viewers.  

Yea James is definitely going to get the next Care Package. And then do absolutely nothing with it because he's a terrible game player. Sigh.

Da'Vonne has all the signs she's going up - she recognizes no one is telling what the actual plan is, just to stay calm (which is exactly what she did to Tiffany). I'm not sure if her acting oblivious is just her fishing for information and seeing who will tell her the trust, or she's actually clueless.

She seems absolutely clueless, which I find very strange. As bad of a game player as Day is, she's very observant, so I am shocked that she doesn't seem to have sussed out that she's the target.

She's a big reason any chance of a girl's alliance working failed.  Frankly, so is Day.

I think Bridgette, Day, and Nicole are all to blame for it and I think that Nicole and Bridgette would've inevitably fucked it up even if Day hadn't become so paranoid. I think Day can work with women, but I don't believe Bridgette or Nicole could ever do it long term. And it really sucks because this was probably the greatest chance we've had in years for women dominating this game.

With Day there's always the chance that she might cause some drama. Or that she might make good game moves. The number of people likely to do either keeps dwindling so Day going is another huge loss for anyone hoping to see the game become less predictable and boring.

Natalie's amazingness strikes again, she made Michelle a joy to listen to. I loved their convo.

Maybe he will tell ONLY Natalie what it holds.  I am in optimist mode today.  

Or at least tell her first so she can encourage him NOT to share it with anyone else!

They have to open it in front of everyone, so I think they'll all know. And it will just ensure it's a "House" (Paulie/Paul) decision, if anything, so that it'll be useless.
