Then this week happened. Pressure and he caved. I think Victor believes Paul is his ride or die. James and Nat both know Polly has to go, and the REAL wall comp will come. It's just a matter of will they still be there when it does? Natalie I can see but Victor is sooooooooooo into being with the boys he will be out before he has a chance. Link to comment

Umbelina July 31, 2016 Share July 31, 2016 (edited) Guys, I think many things on this show have been rigged. I just don't feel that way about this round trip. They can have their moment when, if it isn't used, they all open their envelopes on camera to see who does have it though. Ocho seems like a big clue though, so it could be Day. I can't believe Day is trying to get Paul to put Z up. ETA The biggest rig this season was casting all Frank fans as the other Vets, all players who sucked by the way. The only thing they had in common was that Frank was their favorite player ever. Edited July 31, 2016 by Umbelina 3 Link to comment

Last Survivor train of thought because it's off-topic - But I didn't realize he was actually playing again because he seemed pretty active on Social Media. The season with Aubrey and Debbie as well? 37 minutes ago, J.D. said: As for the first item I bolded, that is precisely why I believe, if Paulie keeps going the way he is, then he DESERVES to win the game. These people -- male and female -- know he's related to Cody, knows Derrick coached him and knows exactly how he's playing. If they're stupid enough to let him pull their strings, then Paulie's this year's puppet master, and they deserve to lose to Paulie. And James and Nicole of all people!?!?!? Nicole was on Cody's season and James himself has been coached by Derrick. Yet, Paulie rules the roost. The second item I bolded is precisely why I don't agree that Paulie's playing Derrick's game. He's playing a variation of Derrick's game, yes, but it's kinda like Derrick's game on steroids. Derrick was much more passive. He could manipulate people without them even noticing. Paulie's more assertive and obvious about his game play. Why they haven't taken him out already is beyond me. *shrugs* I totally agree, @J.D.! If Paulie gets to the end he deserves it. That's why I don't want him to get there! And, even if he gets to Final 2, I'd probably still wish for a miracle that he doesn't win although I'd be the first to admit his gameplay deserves it the most. It's on the HGs if they let him get that far. ETA: Looks like Da'Vonne's doing too little too late, huh? After doing too much, too soon. Edited July 31, 2016 by mooses 3 Link to comment
Wings July 31, 2016 Share July 31, 2016 (edited) There is time before Thursday for things to change but it is clear Day will go. James and Michele will vote for Bridget but who else? Paul knows damn well the odds of Day going are high. He is laying it on thick to trust she is only a pawn, NO way will you go, and on and on and on. Enough, this is painful to hear. Lying is one thing but he is going overboard. And he says he is not sure he will put her up. 5 minutes ago, Umbelina said: Guys, I think many things on this show have been rigged.

Although she's already telling Z she mentioned her name - Z's acting like she had no idea the plan might be different. I think Da'Vonne is slowly realizing she's not part of the group. She's upset no one cares she's panicking, but but it's cool for others to panic (like others go out of their way to smooth others' paranoia). Da'Vonne one of my favorites, but Tiffany would like to say hi.

But she also is not going to convince Paulie. I just don't know how long she'll play clueless or if she'll let Da'Vonne know before she leaves at some point.

Umbelina July 31, 2016 Share July 31, 2016 No one can count. Day asking Nat about her vote. Nat is avoiding it, saying it puts her in a tricky situation. Nat owes Day nothing. Z? DOES. I couldn't listen to Paul and Bridgette, so here's a mini cap from Sucks. Spoiler Paul and Bridgette: paul tells her its pretty much done. tells her da says bridgette is very comfortable right now, she keeps trying to talk to her abt nicole. bridgette freaking out saying what! says she's been sleeping all day. (corey interrupts) paul compliments her cookies. bridgette said da approached her after noms, telling her she doest have many options, and throwing nicole under the bus is her best option. pauls like, what the fuck. bridgettes afraid da is gonna spin shit abt her if theyre on the block together. paul tells brid he told da he's gonna put her up cause she'll stay cool, calm and collected. paul says she acts like she's worried, and da' denies being worried. says da suggested to put up zakiyah since shes never been on the block before. he saying it shows a lot abt her character suggesting z, and what good is da if she's throwing her closest person under the bus like that. paul said its those actions that solidified his reason for putting da up. says he's been observing da for the past few weeks, and once someone starts kissing his butt, they'll be his first target. bridgette repeats da' suggesting nicole to her as the option, and at least paul knows the truth.

Brian Cronin August 1, 2016 Share August 1, 2016 My issue with Z is that she has been playing a traditional floater game, which is fine. But she honestly seems to think that she ISN'T, which is just stupid. She seems to think that despite never doing anything all season long (besides working the social game, of course), that she somehow was right there with Paulie controlling things. She wasn't. She was a vote all this time. Which is fine. There's nothing inherently wrong with being a floater. Floaters often make it very far. But you can't float and then suddenly try to make a move with your alliance as if you have a real say. You don't, which you've proven by floating to this point! Now, you can go OUTSIDE your alliance. That's a fine floater move. But you can't suddenly, after doing nothing but saying "whatever you guys say, just let me know" all season, say "I think we need to do ____." It doesn't work. 5 Link to comment

He's blatantly ruling, throwing his weight around, and bragging. SO not Derrick. Derrick was subtle. Derrick made everyone think that HIS ideas came from them. Yes, he is parroting some of Derrick's actions, but he has no finesse at all, none, zip, he's now forcing his will on people (this week Paul) blatantly. I have hope that bites him in the ass. The things he says about women show his immaturity and creepy side, he's damn lucky idiot Frank pulled him in to the 8 pack, and liked him so much, or he would already be gone. You're right that Paulie is no Derrick - none of them are. Derrick let others have the glory. He let the others walk around pounding their chests and bragging they were in control of the game. I'm still impressed by Derrick's patience, subtlety, and self-control. I would like to think that Derrick watches the feeds and snickers at how stupid Paulie is every time he evokes his name. Unfortunately, the other HGs are stupider for keeping a player specifically tutored by Derrick - as Paulie continually reminds them. 5 Link to comment

Visby August 1, 2016 Share August 1, 2016 Paul is insufferable with his mouth going nonstop again about Natalie trying to figure out the Paris puzzle, how dare she! He's talking, huh, lecturing to Bridget about everything because he can't keep his mouth shut. Z told Paulie that Paul could win and how dare she! Says Paul to Bridget. Day knows she's going up and she is kind of down but working it; however Paul describes her as going crazy around the house. Can't stand him.

mooses August 1, 2016 Share August 1, 2016 I think Z/Michelle think they can flip the votes like they did for Tiffany the first time - Tiffany didn't really have any idea they planning on getting rid of her the whole time until the end of the week when they managed to keep her. The more Da'Vonne talks, the more I think she's putting it together. But if James stonewalls her from knowing, I wonder if she'll put it together it was the plan from the get-go. Link to comment

SiobhanJW August 1, 2016 Share August 1, 2016 (edited) I don't blame Bridgette for saying she's going after the girls.

She's smart enough to know NOT to say any of a combination of those 4 to the other ones. So who is left? The girls & James makes sense since he put her up. So yeah it is entirely possible that she is going to go after the girls but she also isn't going to mention Paulie, Paul, Victor or Corey's names to eachother.

James or Nat would be in that second chair and on their way out the door. That's smart game play, not cowardly. Day is a completely unreliable ally anyway, she and Frank are the ones who blew up the 8 pack. James knows that. ETA Bridgette means it (her loyalty to Polly) just confirmed in her DR on the show.
