Season 20: Live Feed Discussion

Although I am team Tyler, this is a great move by Hayliegh.

Hay can do all sort of deals now, without giving away that is was her. She can let Tyler campaign to her and deal for her vote

I’m not sure. I do remember a conversation earlier this week between Fessy and Tyler talking about them both being very very nervous about another guy being evicted (Brett). 

[Callaphera]

Production's probably just happy that this crop of HGs is actually competing and there isn't a woman with a broken leg winning a foot race. 

[Katesus7]

I....what? I honestly don’t know how to feel. I like Tyler, feel like he’s been playing a great game, but burst out laughing when I read he replaced Scotty. I think this power is stupid and excessive, and yet I applaud Hayleigh for her game move. 

Once again, a week I thought was going to be awful and boring is crazy pants.

Why does Hail get to nominate Tyler??

Of course it's a great move in general, but it's like the aforementioned Coup D'etat. Was that a great move by Jeff, ya know?

[zorak]

Scottie just told Tyler that if he wins veto, he'll take Tyler off.  Doubtful.

She won the Hacker competition.

The Hacker can remove one person who is nominated and then replace them with a HG of their choice and they can then nullify one vote during the voting. 

EDITED TO ADD: Oh, wait, they can also choose to either play themselves or choose someone else to play in POV. This is insane.

It's got to be all bullshit to try to get Tyler to compete not as hard.

[kellog010]

This power is way too much. No matter what side of the house you root for. I'm not a fan. 

[Alice Mudgarden]

I have never and will never like when someone playing a good/great game gets fucked over by some bullshit game twist. Like Devon on Survivor HvHvH getting epically screwed out of what was almost assuredly a win, something I will never not be bitter about. There's messing around with the game a little and then there's totally screwing someone up. The outcome is still TBD, but it's already way too high of a level of fuckery for me to feel cool with.

Depends. Did he call Tyler "Kaitlyn" at any point during the convo?

[Callaphera]

You know what this means. We need Brett to be pulled for Veto, him to win it, and Rockstar to melt down. Just for extra fun.

Oh wait, Brett would totally use the Veto on Tyler, wouldn't he? Boo. Never mind then.

[missyb]

I kind of think Scottie would take Tyler off the block. I think Bay would do too.

But wouldn't him taking Tyler down cause her to melt down more?

Why wouldn't they want a number from the other side of the house out?

I’m not sure. I think I’d tend to believe Scottie would over Fessy. 

[Callaphera]

Just now, Brian Cronin said:

Well yes but since I'm okay with Tyler being the first juror and the house just devolving into utter chaos, I'd prefer if it Tyler stayed on the block. But I also want Rockstar to be all butthurt again because I'm evil. I'm so torn.

[Ceeg]

I really will laugh out loud if Grodner’s new twist (Hacker) nullifies the other twist (Tyler’s app).

In case anyone doesn't know: Haleigh powers are that she can replace a nom (Scottie coming down, Tyler up), pick a player for veto, AND nullify one vote.

Why all that power ? It is out of control. 

[vb68]

Come on and beast this veto comp Tyler!

If Tyler goes out in such a cheap and frankly BS way, CBS can just run reruns for the rest of the season as far as I'm concerned.

Vegas, a reliable insider (who probably works on the show), tweeted it earlier.

I’m just really annoyed that the best season in years is getting screwed with because of this bullshit Hacker stuff. 

[Callaphera]

If used properly, could you imagine how much chaos you could create between the two sides of the house with careful choices? 

[Katesus7]

Don’t you know, Tyler is on everyone’s side! Everyone but Hayleigh and Rockstar will be falling all over each other to win the veto so they can save him. I’m not too concerned about Tyler just yet. 

[Ceeg]

Scottie confirmed to The Hive (sans Bay) that he will take Tyler off if he wins veto. 

[SiobhanJW]

I'm an obvious Tyler fan. But I thought another Twist was stupid when I heard about it yesterday and when I heard them all talking about it yesterday- I was like no way they are actually giving the Hacker 3 different powers- that's insane. But yes, it's true. I'm sorry but that's just way to much- You can replace a nominee, you can put up your own veto player & cancel a vote? One of them would have been fine. 

I'm confused why Production thought this was necessary- you have an insane house- going back and forth. It's so interesting and exciting. We couldn't just play straight BB? There was no need to bring in this new comp. Remember in BB17 when they stopped doing the Takeover- and just let them play. 

Sucks for anyone who gets screwed by this twist this week and next week. What a blow to their games. You are basically a dead person standing if you can't pull yourself off- because you lose a vote. 

This is also one of the best season in years- and it's getting screwed over by this horrific twist. Unreal.

[Brian Cronin]

I mean, yes, if anyone on the other side wins, Tyler comes off, Angela nominates someone on S6 and it doesn't matter, but it's still ridiculous that there is a chance that this might get Tyler out this week on some bullshit.

Edited August 4, 2018 by Brian Cronin

[Ceeg]

Haleigh told Scottie if he takes Tyler off then Fessy will go up. I will laugh if somehow Haleigh gets Fessy or Bayleigh evicted because she stuck Tyler up there. 

[Lady Calypso]

I'm happy for Haleigh winning and I'm fine with Tyler going up. What bugs me is the other two powers that Haleigh has for the week. It really IS too powerful. 

I'm glad and sad Brett wasn't put up, only because Brett vs Rockstar would have been awesome. But I'm good with Brett getting a week off of being off the block.

I don't think anyone is voting Tyler out, but they could. I think the veto will be used this week, so Bayleigh or Fessy could still get backdoored. 

Either way, good on Haleigh for making a big move. Too bad it was due to a bullshit twist.

Really !! The y could have revised the power. Remember that season they threw out the "visitor every week" twist because too much was going on in the house? TPTB could have made this a less powerful twist. The house is exciting enough on its own merits.

But, I'll bet there will be a returning juror.

Yeah, I think it's great that she's doing this. It's just beyond fucked up that she CAN do it all.

Oh, no doubt there will be a returning juror, but that's not much solace. "Yeah, you got fucked over by this twist, but you might be able to get back in maybe!"

Come on Scottie redeem yourself in my eyes and do something cool for once! Out Haleigh as the hacker! Everyone should know! At the very least tell Fessy!

So who does Haleigh put up for veto? I can't believe she will chose herself. RS? Yeah good luck with that.

RS will be playing already.

JC, Angela, and KC are all talking about how he knows it’s ?? either Haleigh or Bayleigh. I can’t tell who he said. 

They think it’s Bayleigh.

Bayleigh.  I just rewound to listen for that specific part.

Right.That's how relevant she is in my mind  I guess it sounds like she'll put Scottie up.

I would take back everything I ever said about him if he outs her and pulls Tyler off.

Tyler telling Sam that he thinks Bayleigh or Scottie was responsible.

[ByaNose]

I feel like Fessy now. I’m so confused. I know Tyler is on the block but can he still he play Veto or use his Cloud App? I like that he’s running the house & no one knows it. I didn’t like it when it was Paul because he played before but Tyler is new and fresh. That said, I hated it when Derrick was running the house and no one knew it. Like, I said. I’m soooooo confused & conflicted. LOL!!!!!!

[Lonesome Rhodes]

I honestly do not get how Tyler's power is nullified.  

Oh well.  I always hold on to the FACT that BB can literally name anyone the winner.  It could be a 9-0 jury vote for Tyler over Bayleigh, and BB can legally declare Swaggy the winner.

Enough is never enough in TV, as so many learned posters have decried.  Man manages to take blessings and turn them to curses all the time.  Why should BB be any different?

[SiobhanJW]

Hayleigh is literally following Tyler from room to room. He's not dumb Hay- I'm sure he's going to figure it out real soon that it was you. 

[Irishsecra]

Well, I am outraged. I really respect Tyler’s game and if he goes home because of this hacker twist, I will be so pissed.

Not shocked Haleigh did it at all. She probably wanted to nom Sam but then everyone would know it was her.

[Primal Slayer]

Wait Tylers power is null and void now? huh?

[Brian Cronin]

His power protects him from being outright nominated or put up at veto, but not from this new out of nowhere Hacker bullshit twist. 

[Sandycat]

I really can't believe Grodner is allowing this to happen to Tyler. She had to know this could potentially bite her in the butt. There was no need for this twist. There was enough drama going on already. She basically ruined things.

Apparently an infinite number.

Tyler is saying someone is weak for putting him up? The guy who has been working people left and right?
