Flames are gone and all the HGs are busy cooking, wearing blue or mauve aprons and chef hats. CG is also helping, even though it doesn't matter for him. Marci, however, is just standing with his hands on his hips or under his chin, just watching. Way to be a team player, Marci, you butthead!

What was the outcome of the Food competition ? Does anyone know ?

LAST EDITED ON 08-11-06 AT 04:10 PM (EST)

The HGs are in the house watching the judges, who are outside, taste and judge the dishes. I don't know any of them, but the names called are June & Nicole and there is a VERY well-built bald black guy as the judges.

ETA: Marvin is the muscular Judge.

Jun, is the Season 4 winner besting Allison.....

Because 3 Vinces are better than one.

Isn't Niocle Boogies ex? She is being mean to Will. I LOVE Marvin and June =)

Nope, Krista is Boogie's ex.

So that is Wills ex. We can thank Will for the flames because he was being a JERK

...Nicole is Will's nemesis. Shannon was his girlfriend.

Will chose to drive Nicole crazy, that was part of his strategy that year. Much like he's doing to us this year .

Will and Nicole were #1 and #2. That did not set well with Nicole

Is there anyone who was watching the live feeds last night before the first HOH was nullified know who Erika was thinking about nominating? Or did it not get that far?

She and Dani talked a little about Janie and Howie being put up. Those were the only names I remember hearing last night.

Ha ha here's a funny line --

Marci to Dani --

If I'm going to say something about someone I'm going to say it to their face.

ROTFLMAO

The context is he's telling Dani that he's sure Janie is lying and making up Marcellus lines to turn the house against him. Of course he's not actually confronting Janie, he's telling Dani how terrible this is ...

because he never says things about people behind their backs.

because he never says things about people behind their backs

No, he and Amy were perfect little angels in BB3. They were never snarky about EVERYONE behind their backs.

Right.

At least we can say that Marci is consistent. He snarked and whined about everyone and everything in BB3 then pulled the single dumbest move in the entire history of the US show (not using his PoV to save himself, and then immediately getting voted off).

The snarking and whining has returned. The dumb move is still to come....

Marcellas to Danielle "Kaysar turned his back on me at the end and wouldn't talk to me and it was hurtful."

The poor little slimebag.

It has come to this - my wife and kids are away for the night, its a Friday night and I am sitting here with a Mike's Hard Lemonade listening to Marci BLAST Howie about how he has done nothing for his team, he is useless, etc..etc..(hmmm - doesn't that sound like someone else??!)...Now he says "I want to go out with Class"....oh no - now Marci is CRYING! I need another drink!

That has to be the BIGGEST lie i have ever heard told in the BB house. I too was LMAO at that.
Dani, Marci, James and Erika are all on some distorted power trip. They actually think they are all stars or something. The only "actual" all stars in my opinion is Will and Janelle. I would put nakomis and Jase in there but they are gone already so who cares.

As for these Hg of the past, why would they get Cappy, Bunky, Holly. Everyone hates them. I tell you SeeBS has major problems or a brain farting disease or something.

You must not have watched BB3. Dani dominated it the way Will dominated BB2. The "trick" from the producers was, they let the jury see the tapes of the season before the final vote. The HGs were shocked to learn of Dani's games, and everyone turned on Dani in the vote except for her hidden ally.

If they'd done that in BB2, Will wouldn't have won either. And they've never done it again.

If they'd done that in BB2, Will wouldn't have won either. And they've never done it again.

I thought Will won despite all his diary room antics. They weren't sequestered in season 2, right? Will was just as bad in the DR as Dani was, but the key difference was that Will never pretended to be anything but a lying manipulator. Nobody on the jury felt personally betrayed by Will, like they did with Dani.

You're right that there was no sequester until BB4. Yeah, Will won because, in the end, no one liked Nicole either.

Also because Nicole was actually responsible for voting most of those people out, and she betrayed her alliance with Hardy and took Will and Monica to the end.
( Will convinced her she couldn't win against Hardy)
Will was on the block so often ( 3 times , or 4?) that he wasn't directly responsible for evicting many on the jury.
Nicole, on the other hand was responsible for the eviction of almost all the members of the jury.

Will did say some terrible things in the DR about how he was playing people, but he didn't promise loyalty like Danielle. He said he was lying to them, but he wasn't as personnally insulting. Instead of a resentful jury, his jury respected that they were played.
Danielle had the misfortune of Marcellas rallying votes against her, as well as her DR confessions being known to everyone. And that she was up against Lisa, a very good UTR floater who didn't offend anyone.
Don't forget that Dani knew she couldn't beat Jason in the final two, and threw the comp to Lisa, knowing it take her to the end.
She claimed she never betrayed Jason, but she threw the comp so she wouldn't have to choose him.

Oh yes, she is a great player, but there is a reason she wasn't a winner.

That is an incorrect statement. The season June beat Allsion in the finals the confessionals were also shown to the house guests. Everyone ended up hating June and Allison and voted for June as the less of two evils.

No, not right.

In BB2 there was no sequester, and all the original houseguests came back to vote. Once they were off the show they were free to see everything that happened , and only came back to vote.
But they had access to all media on the show and saw the episodes after they were outed.

In BB3 the sequester was only used for the 3 houseguests that had the chance to come back into the house after being voted out. The houseguests voted on who would return, (unlike BB6 when the viewers voted.) Amy won and was returned. The rest were let out into the world and saw all the episodes and DR confessions, including all of Danielle's confessions on who she was playing. Many believe that what she said in the DR hurt her chance to win. The viewers loved her countdown on how many down, how many left, the jury? not so much.

In BB4 there was an actual jury, not all the houseguests were part of it. The members of the jury were sequestered, though BB did let them see parts of the episodes, and edited Diary Room clips. They were NOT privy to all the information the viewing public was.
Jun did win over Alison, but BB was more careful to not show the jury everything that was said in the DR.
Contestants that were savvy to the last season curbed their statements, for fear the jury would judge them on DR confessions.

I believe, (and I am not as sure here, so someone correct me if I am wrong) that in Season 5 and 6 that the DR segments were not shown to the Jury at all. They were shown nom ceremonies and evictions only.

But in season 4 - Jun and Ali as final 2, the jury wasn't shown ALL, as in previous seasons. They were shown edited tapes.

BB2 and BB3 had a big disavantage, since all members voted, and no one was sequestered, so they saw all that happened after they left, and were able to see all that happened before they left.

Unlike Survivor, that has kept to the same basic voting format for the winner, Big Brother has changed the format and evolved into a different endgame each season.

Thanks Buggy. I had forgotten how the early seasons worked.

As you said about Seasons 5 & 6, each evictee brought a tape of the last week's competions and the noms and evictions, but no casual conversations, nothing from the DR.

I assume the producers had to make the DR a free place to speak your mind just like the confessionals in Survivor, or they wouldn't get the great TV comments any more -- after the backlash against Danielle.

Have they done the nomination ceremony yet, isn't it usually done by now?

Not yet, but it should be any time now, since they're all outside waiting for the meeting to be called. The delay may be due to the kitchen being a disaster area after the food comp this afternoon. BB probably wants to clean it up before the ceremony.

I guess Janelle is busy putting the keys in the box?

Let's forget the coup and think about PoV for a moment.

Janie has three choices of whom to nominate: Dani, Marci and Erika (since she doesn't know about James). But she can't play in PoV, and it's unlikely that James, Will or Boogie will be trying hard, so Howie will be her lone chance to win PoV.

Slim chance, to be sure. The best case for the D-M-E group is to have the one of them that ISN'T nominated win PoV and then take off one of the two noms. Then what does Janie do? Go after CG?

Then what does Janie do? Go after CG?

Yes, and she told CG he would probably be put up if veto is used.

But, she told CG he was not the target and that she and Howie would try to protect him.

Erika tells CG she can guess the order keys are coming out of box: (let's see how she does)

Howie - James- Will -Marcellus - Boogie - CG

Are the nominations happening now???

Hi AyaK, nice to see you around these parts this season.

Your question about POV -- in a perfect world if one of the 3 not nommed takes another nom off ... Janie would backdoor James.
That would depend on whether Will decided it was time to do in James and ratted him out.

If not, she could nom ChickenGeorge but it seems to me it would be more interesting if she could put up one of CT and hopefully ensure that her other remaining nom walked out the door.

Will is definitely thinking down the road about how strong a pair Dani and James are if they both stay in the house, so who knows, he may turn on James. When you're allied with James, you only get so many weeks before James gets out the knife.

That would be GREAT if Janelle got to backdoor James, does anyone remember him saying "Next week I am gonna backdoor that b!^&#" It would only be great irony that she would be the one back dooring him. I honestly think Janelle needs the Coup d'Etat that way it will ensure James leaves.

Will is BLASTING the Internet folks now - freaking hysterical. I love it and he's talking about ME!

If the food comp is over, does anyone know if they won the grill or they are on slop?

I read somewhere that the are on slop for one day at least but not sure of any others. I'm pretty sure they won the grill as well.

They are doing the nom cerimony right now as we've had flames for a while.

I've found some clips from the comp for those who missed it. I think these are all in order.
