I've not seen anything like that whatsoever. My newspaper job is paying for me to watch the live feeds now (which stay on in the background of my computer all the time now), and I don't buy that.

Maybe Jen is the twist? I mean, who else would give up 1/2 the money? And she's just so... odd. I don't know.

Spoiler maybe: Jess and Eric seemed to have decided to vote Dustin out. Or rather, Eric seems to have convinced Jess it's the right thing to do and they've agreed upon it. (not that Jess can vote as HoH)

Should we close the doors on GreekChat?

I can't speak from personal observation. I was just relying on Reality News Online's recap of the August 14 live feeds, which says:

Jen and Amber discuss their votes, and Jen mentions that she sometimes feels pressured by the diary room people to vote a certain way, as in keeping Dick this week. No wonder the producers want Dick to stay – his popularity on the CBS website is nearing 40% (the next most popular person is Daniele, with close to 15%). Big Brother tells Jen and Amber to stop talking about the diary room.

and

Eric goes to the diary room, and when he comes out, Jen says, “Here he comes, Mr. America.” This makes Eric nervous, and he asks Jen what she means by this. She doesn’t say anything. Eric tells Jessica that the diary room sessions involve a lot of leading questions that push the houseguests to keep Dick this week. Eric thinks that Dick is just so hated by the fans that the producers want to keep him.

Of course, I didn't pick up reading before that the last comment was coming from Eric, who obviously can't be honest about diary room conversations and may want to try and color perceptions to cover the fact that "America" will make him vote for Dustin.

You're actually getting paid to watch the live feeds? I don't know whether to be impressed or sympathetic.

I heard that on another message board too - but for last week's vote (between Kail and Eric).

Okay....I got back home right after Dustin was eliminated...now I half way don't even want to watch anymore b/c I feel like something is fishy---but I will probably keep watching anyway.

If you all don't mind, can somebody pleeeeeeease tell me how everyone voted???? I am so confused right now. Please help a sister out.

Yeah, it's Jen. To me she's the most random of all. I mean she gave up 1/2 the money and claims to be playing just to be playing... no idea about her.

Sympathetic. I mean, I'd MUCH rather read recaps than watch that often. But it's okay because most of the time they're sleeping and things are interesting. Which is also a GREAT reason never to pay money for them. Anything 1/2 way decent ends up on youtube anyway.


Oh, and I guess everyone expects this from me, but I must say I'm glad to see Dustin go. I think Eric finally got a clue when evicting tonight (which we knew he was going to do for the past 2 days), and said he "embraced the idea." He needs to get back on America's side if he wants to keep moving forward in the game.

HOH Spoiler: Danielle

Velocity - I think (from what I read on the other message board) that Jameka and Amber were the only votes for Dick to go.

A little shocked about tonight. Only Amber and Jamika voted for Dick. It's really going to be interesting.

I still think these people don't know how to play the game.

As bummed as I am that stupid Dick is still in the house, I will probably keep watching until Eric is eliminated.

okay, i've finally decided to post in this thread because i've been an avid BB watcher since Season 2.

all i can say about last night's episode was that a spectacular example of how the game should be played. i'm not condoning what they did to dustin (who just happens to remind of my best gay friend, dustin) but it was still a great move.

le sigh. if only i could see kaysar's beautiful face again.

Thumbs down BB8 really sucks this season!!

This is the WORST season of BB. It is so obvious that things have been set up...I'm just disappointed...but....in my disappointment I still watch...lol.

I don't care who goes home b/c they are all getting on my nerves but I think they are going to backdoor Jen if Amber/Jameka win POV and if they don't they want Amber gone since Jameka can't compete for HOH.
