Cosmosgravitation July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 (edited) Quote Jessica: I love Paul and I don't want to see him go anywhere. Mark: I'm so glad you said that, so do I. Jessica: I told Cody, I was like, the way you feel about Alex is the way I feel about Paul. Mark: I'm so glad you said that. Jessica: That's exactly why our games are different, I would do anything to keep Cody in this house, but I also don't want to see Paul go. These are Cody's closest allies. Even without the pendant, I don't think Paul would go. If he is nominated, the pendant might end up hurting him because he lied about it. But maybe he can just spin it as not trusting Cody and wanting to see if he would try and backdoor him and how he was obviously right to do it. In three weeks people might be over it.

Wings July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 (edited) 15 minutes ago, Lady Calypso said: Yeah, it's smart of Cody to try to get Christmas out now, it really is. She's a strong competitor, both for the physical competitions as well as socially (not sure about mental competitions yet). She gets along with everyone and she really is a force to be reckoned with. Ultimately, it's smart to get her out now; the problem is is that he's part of their big alliance, and I doubt people will take too kindly with him putting her up, and I don't think it'll be as easy as he thinks to get her evicted. He might be able to, but he will absolutely be the next target because of him not talking to anybody and being an overall annoying jerk about it. Also, I love Christmas and that'll dwindle down the number of houseguests who I can stand. I also happen to like Jillian so I'd rather Jason or Ramses go up and get evicted instead. I have no thoughts on either of them. Yes there are 4 days until elimination and the argument that she is a competition and social threat may win. I think she may be his first choice. Cody sees that she is not as connected to his alliance as Paul is and will be an easier sell. 6 minutes ago, Cosmosgravitation said: These are Cody's closest allies.

peachmangosteen July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 Has any of the 'alliance' brought up that they think Christmas could be the replacement nom? Link to comment
peachmangosteen July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 (edited) My ideal scenario would be Cody trying to nom Paul, Paul has to expose he got the Temptation, Cody noms Christmas instead. That would be so juicy! ETA: Watching Christmas and Raven (badly) make pancakes is the most I've enjoyed the feeds so far. Minus any Kevin related stuff. Cody and Jason are talking and Cody just told Jason that him and Alex are the closet to Cody's personality. WHAT?! Cody said he wants to protect Jason and Alex. He told Jason that if he gets HOH next week not to put up Dom/Mark/Elena/Matt/Raven/Jessica. Jason said that wouldn't be good for his game. Cody said if he doesn't protect those people then Cody can't protect him anymore. Based on what Cody just told Jason I think he's putting up Paul. Why does Cody want to protect Dom so much? I was worried about her loyalty to him, but damn she's got him on her side completely so maybe she's not wrong to be so into him. OK so if anyone needs a good laugh flashback to this Cody/Jason convo. Two idiots trying to talk game, such fun! Cody gave away everything lol. It's too bad Jason was on the receiving end because he won't do anything with it. Holy shit, Cody just offered himself up as a pawn against Christmas next week lol. Now Cody is talking to Alex. Seriously folks, fire up the feeds this is gold! Edited July 2, 2017 by peachmangosteen 2 Link to comment
Wings July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 Read the conversation on Jokers Updates that is taking place now between Cory and Jason. Cody is arrogant and crafty. He just got Jason to do his bidding in exchange for safety in this veto nomination. LOL! Link to comment

Cosmosgravitation July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 This conversation just confirms that he is going to try to nom Paul. Paul will pull out his pendant, and it will be Christmas (if Cody chooses replacement) or Ramses (if the curse makes him the automatic replacement). Should be good feeds. 5 Link to comment

Lady Calypso July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 Nice. I'm glad he's going to put up Paul...or try to. I have to hope that this curse will have Ramses put up, which I have to assume is the consequence to the temptation, which means it'll be the second person Paul has inadvertently gotten evicted just for the temptations twist. Assuming that Ramses goes, which is what Paul/Christmas want. I hope I'm here to see the fallout, because it'll be glorious. 3 Link to comment

Wings July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 Cody adores Dom and made it clear to Jason that he wants her protected along with the couples. He said he does not have an alliance and probably never will but he has people he wants to protect. Good god. Jason told him it was nuts to keep the couples but caved to Cody's desire to keep himself safe. ' 1 Link to comment

It can't just be a random curse that he suddenly got after Paul got the Temptation and that he's all good.

I wouldn't mind Dominique so much if everything that came out of her mouth wasn't a motivational speech, to herself or to others. I get that it's your job but when you're not in need of motivational speaking, it's annoying as shit to hear these "daily affirmations" and "inspirations" and whatever other cuddly language it's wrapped up in.

It might be automatic Have Not status for Ramses and whoever is around him at that moment. It could be not playing in HoH. It could be almost anything. It makes logical sense that it would be tied to the Pendant somehow but since when does Big Brother work on logic? Edited July 2, 2017 by Callaphera 3 Link to comment

Nashville July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 3 hours ago, Skycatcher said: Is it possible........that there won't be a real eviction because of Megan self-evicting? I could easily believe that BB-TPTB would run it up to the last possible minute before announcing. And if there were to be no eviction, it's possible that Paul's ACA would go unrevealed, if they played it that way. Of course the blurb did say he was protected from nomination, but who knows how TPTB will play it? Doubtful, unless Production's intent is to blow Cody out of the House ASAFP. In previous occasions where the HoH's norms were nullified and nobody left the House (a la Reset Button), the target put on the sitting HoH's back by (a) identifying two targets and (b) both of them remaining in the game has generally proved insurmountable for the HoH in question. Granted I don't recall such ever happening this early in the game (while there is still a superfluity of alternative targets to provide distraction), but still.... 3 hours ago, Skycatcher said: ETA: If Megan did self-evict because of PTSD, what does that do to Paul's claim that he was responsible for her going? Or did he instigate a triggering event?

Katesus7 July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 I know it's all speculation at this point but if Ramses curse involves him being nominated because Paul can't be, I'm going to be pissed. Two weeks in a row someone ends up nominated due to a fluke? No fucking thank you. As much as I like Christmas, I'd rather it just be her nominated, so at least the noms will be due to decisions the HGs made and contests they won. Not because of "America" or the stupid Temptations twist. 11 Link to comment
Wings July 2, 2017 Share July 2, 2017 (edited) @Katesus7, I agree. I want to believe AG would not have set this up knowing it could backfire in this way. It is good in the long run though. Not for us today but it keeps the strong players in the game. Could it be a 3rd person to go on the block? Never mind that they are down one, that can be adjusted later if this was the plan. This was planned before anyone knew who the players would be. I know AG manipulates things on the fly but I am not sure she does as much as we think. There has to be a story board on these twists.
