Last night around 3:40am, Zach was preparing his nomination speech that compared Christine to JennCity regarding floating, and also called out Nicole for being a ‘Dingus Fruitloop'(??). I’m not exactly sure what the second one was, but I think the main objective was to get something going at the meeting for Team America, and that’s what it sounds like happened today.
Zach was unaware he was being used as a pawn for Team America, but Derrick was encouraging a pretty brutal speech at the nomination ceremony today, and when the feeds returned live around 11:43am, it appears that’s exactly what happened. Nicole was crying because she wasn’t really sure what to do. She felt incredibly uncomfortable and awkward, and probably really confused by a strange insult (if you call it that).
However, Zach may have gone too far because in a different room, Cody was talking to Christine about the possibility of a saboteur. I’m sure they’re going to pin it on Zach and target him for eviction as soon as they can, but that will be too bad. Zach is the only entertaining person remaining in the house right now. I was sure Team America was going to screw up the games of that alliance, but it appears to be screwing the game of a random player.
On to the actual nomination results. They are as expected…
Frankie – Jocasta / Victoria
Zach – Christine / Nicole
All girls, shocker. Will this wake up the girls? Probably not.
Here are some live feed updates:
- 11:50am – Nicole and Christine are really speculating on Zach being a saboteur. It didn’t help that one of the wake-up songs this morning was “Sabotage” by Beastie Boys. Well played, Big Brother.
- Christine says that Zach doesn’t really have a casting story, so they’re really thinking he is just there to stir stuff up.
- They are also speculating that America put Zach up to this and it’s because we don’t like Nicole or Christine.
- 12:07pm – House taking a break from speculation to make some lunch. They know battle of the block is around the corner.
- 12:12pm – Victoria is in the beehive talking to Derrick. She is crying about always being nominated. Maybe put 2+2 together and realize the girls have to band together?
- 12:38pm – Frankie and Cody are in a tough situation because a lot of people want Frankie to backdoor Zach (if he’s removed from HoH). The two of them think Zach is ruining their game, but they can’t nominate him because he’ll blow everything up.They’re also saying Zach can’t be an a*****e this week to Nicole/Christine…..
- Meanwhile, Zach is downstairs asking how Nicole slept on the ice block last night, and eating beef jerky in front of the havenots.
- 12:49pm – Christine talking to Cody about the slop. She can’t eat any of it because she nearly throws up. She had 1/8th of a cup of slop, and it “destroyyyyyed” her.
- 1:12pm – Victoria and Christine are in the beehive room bashing Zach’s behavior.
Battle of the block results….
Christine and Nicole won the BOB. Victoria and Jocasta remain on the block. Frankie remains HoH
Check back for more updates
So starts the paranoia and back stabbing by the alliance members Yes Christine has been nothing but a info pipeline Derrick and Frankie need get there minions in line
Christine should get on her knees and thank Zach for giving her a chance to do something more than be a bump on the log. Christine knows what the ultimate target is and still did not want to carry her own weight. Now we get to see if she acts all butthurt and decides to pursue a grudge.
Last week, as losing HOH, Nicole had to wear a frog outfit. Now that Frankie is the losing HOH we will see if HE gets a punishment. If so, they will probably give him a ballerina outfit—right up his alley.
Correction: Christine and Nicole won the BOB so Zach is dethroned. We now get to listen to Victoria whine and cry some more.
mouse – remember the last time Frankie won co – HOH he ultimately lost it and we discussed how he did not recieve a loser punishment – I don’t see Zach with a punishment either – or did I miss that?
BoB time so the next stage will soon be set. Somewhat off-topic but last week I started considering actually paying for the feeds. I am frugal by nature and have a compulsion to not spend money on myself so I was torn.
I then noticed there is another option through the CBS Rewards program. It is 10k points for a 4 week pass and 24k for the season pass. I decided to see how hard these would be to reach. You just have to play the videos, not really pay attention to them. So I started them in a new window, muted them and otherwise ignored them as I surfed the web over the top of them.
Last Friday I registered at CBS and started trying their “Challenges” to earn points. Those are little collections of 1-5 minute clips but they require constantly clicking on next to continue the challenge. I then discovered the gem of full episodes. They are longer but when one finishes the next automatically starts and does not require any input from me.
SO now when I start up my computer I open a window to CBS and start something like The Late, Late Show or Elementary or Criminal Minds running on mute and then forget about them. I have even left them running when I went to sleep.
As I approach the end of the first week of mt experiment I am currently at 8,710 points and should be able to claim a 4 week pass sometime after Sunday. I will probably work towards earning another so I can finish out the season. I will definitely investigate this again next January so I can earn a full season pass before the season begins.
One drawback to this method is it does cut SB out of his commission so I will be sure to say my thanks to him, I just need to see if my PayPal account is still valid after collecting dust for 3 years – I bet my wallet there is sorely out of date.
Full house on these nominations.
I mean really, sniffles, what gave you the opinion that you were special Nicole?
Your floating has been unveiled, to you.
Well, Nicole was an HOH and did what they asked of her. So she does deserve some alliance support! But she is going to have to choose and if Hayden is working with her, he needs to help her and not throw comps like he did the HOH last night.
Nominations have been made, but who is the target? Everyone agreed on Caleb this past week. Now it’s all over the place.
These girls have been stupid from the start !!
Get over it Victoria! You aren’t at home where you are going to be petted, spoiled, and catered to. Five weeks and Christine has never been a HN or nominated. She also hasn’t done or won anything.
I think she will go up this week, they just don’t want her to win the VETO again! She is certainly sliding.
They would be happy for her to win. Caleb or Amber are this week’s real targets.
It the game rigged? Zach said there were only 5 keys in the nomination box. Does this mean that production steers the nominations in whatever direction they want?
Production definatly plays a part in what happens in the house, but I don’t think its out right ‘rigged’. They need to keep it interesting for TV, and they have house favourites, and not so favourites that they may give advantages to.
Probably correct if you take the two HOH out and then the two keys from the first nominated leaves him little choices
He might have meant there were only 5 keys he would consider putting up, some were clearly off the table (Derrick, Cody and Donny).
Very true 10 people up for nom 2 taken off now 8 the 3 he won’t touch now 5 left stop the consperisy no one hiden in the grassy knoll yet production does need to explain all the favors given to Frankie
They said there would be no math.
Women on this show man. Never fails. If they indicate that they’re at all strong, smart or strategic, not only do the guys IMMEDIATELY target her, but the catty women also do, because they’re intimidated. This always leaves a pack of weak-willed, sheep women who will do whatever the men say despite it OBVIOUSLY being detrimental to their game. They then get picked off one-by-one and act surprised in the end when there’s no saving them. “What happened? How did it become like this?”
One of the many microcosms we see that reflects our society pretty accurately.
Sad, but true. No Danni, Britney, Janelle or Amanda in the house this year – just a bunch of scared, catty girls who are letting the boys show them the door.
But you could have predicted this type of outcome with the new structure where the HOH only stays in power, and keeps their nominees, if their nominees lose the BOB. So every HOH, if they want to stay HOH, are incented to only put up the weakest players. So nobody yet has wanted to put up one of the stronger, more physical players. As a result, the nominations have been more predicable than ever before….IMHO.
Sadie, I totally agree w/you. I cant believe, well don’t want to believe, these are so stupid. after the first two evictions they should have gotten a clue. seems like britt had a clue but her personality irritated folks.
oh, how I love this, Nicole and Christine is up. I want Christine to go. Why Christine thinks anyone owes her anything is beyond me. She needs to rough it some. Wondering who will go up next?
I really dislike Christine. Hope she goes home.
Let’s see how much a team player Christine is now Will she rat out the bomb squad /Det Her entire game has been spying on others for Derrick Now Zach game has come out He just wants to be the bad boy now it starts to get good as alliance members must put each other up
I would like Christine to get evicted, but a more strategic play would be to evict Nicole. That way the alliance between Christine, Nicole and Hayden would be over, as I think that Nicole is the glue in that alliance. Then the following week they could get Caleb out. I like Zach more now, he’s funny, and he threw a curve ball with this nomination, I didn’t expect it. He’s is not afraid like Cody.
I like Zach. I can’t stand Christine. I’m so glad her lazy ass has to be a have not and eat slop. She’s no better than anyone else. Actually she’s worse. CAN’T STAND HER.
So they think he’s a saboteur….as in not actually a real player? Like he’s a production member just messing with the houseguests?? Or do they think he’s being put up to it by America??
As in he’s being put up to tasks by America. They have had it in the past, so they are thinking Zach is it for this season.
Well there is an Americas team, Zach is not one. And yeah, that team of three has an advantage if the tasks America gives them moves them on in the game. Now BB gave Frankie the letter from home and I think that should have been his HOH letter. He should not of gotten a second letter. But I truly think someone will think to send him on home to his family.
From the way it is coming from the different houseguests, I believe they are thinking both. That it is either America making him do it or that he is the saboteur.
It kills me when they are really close to what is happening but not exactly right on or they just downplay it to paranoia. If you look at it realistically the America behind it is kinda the case per Derrick and Frankie fueling Zach’s irritation.
Zach has said jokingly a couple weeks ago to I believe Frankie that he was the saboteur but that he was going to wait until week 8 to reveal it.
I love Zach and honestly I lost respect for Cody after last week he should of put caleb up and got him out so before he targets zach cody better hope zach can get caleb out for him
I didn’t think I would like Zach but he is what you see is what you get so take it or leave it with him. He is the type to just pat you on the back and say, that was rough huh but never sympathy or apology.
He’s good at the game. I would hate to have to work or live with him.
I am sure Nicole feels picked on, after all, she has not been in regular clothes for over two weeks and is a have not. I hope she wins and takes herself off and gets to change clothes soon. But truly, I am so tired of all the lay low floaters that any and all of them can go home and may the comps move into place the players.
I don’t feel bad for Nichole wow she had to wear goofy outfits so the **ll what. She has been on the block once for maybe 1/2 a day (lets cry some more). This is the first time she is a havenot. It just might do her some good to see what it really fells like. As for Christine this is the first time she got anything I hope it really messes with her.
Nicole feels picked on?? No sympathy here. Connie Sue has it exactly right – hope she and Christine lose the BOB and one of them goes home. I don’t remember her having alot of sympathy for Britney, Derek, Pao or Joey.
I don’t agree that Zach is entertaining. And I don’t think Team America is screwing up his game. It’s not like this was new and different behavior for him. He’s screwing up his own game.
He is not screwing up his game, his is playing his strategy – full-throttle and keep the house unsettled to create opportunities. Who is really upset at him? Derrick, Frankie and Donny are quite happy as he is completing their TA mission without knowing it. Hayden and Cody may act upset but they know this turmoil is designed to lull Caleb and Amber to sleep so one of them can be backdoored.
So upset at Zach is Talkatoo Cockatoo Christine (what has she done to invoke respect or fear?), Nicole (also a weak player), Victoria (just really po’ed at being on block again and beginning to look like the best partner for F2 to insure a 500K win – can you imagine her final speech claiming to have been a power to the end and then her opponent popping her bubble and saying “no you were carried here because you are a buffoon”) and Jocasta (who realizes she is not a target here). Caleb and Amber may also act sympathetically upset but their game is so short-sighted they are thinking “just as long as it is not me”.
Seriously not kissing your butt..:-P..but I really like how you read big brother. Every post is good-I remember you from last year too and look forward to what you have to say.
Just thought I’d say something regarding your insight 😉
Thanks, I do try to be a respectful and contributing community member.
