"True colors"
I just thought I'd share my insight on people's true colors coming out. How about those twins? Adria/Natalie acted like a supportive team as one player. Of course we all knew what would go down as soon as both twins played together in the house. I didn't think they would be worse than Jase. Jase used intimidation as his strategy and everyone knew it was the weakest way to play the game, but these twins have really gotten under my skin. I love Will, and thought he was very true to his team. I feel the same way about Nicomis. They are both genuinely good people. i can't say the same for anyone else besides MAYBE Diane. I guess we'll have to see how it all pans out. Oh and p.s. interesting shifting relationship between Drew and Diane

One doesn't necessarily vote out only the folks that annoy them. One may also vote out those they think could be a threat to win, keeping the annoying ones for later.

The plan to vote out Will because Marvin would poison the sequester house, and will would not, is definitely gonna backfire on them, though.

I agree they don't vote out only the ones that annoy them. It's just interesting to see how these people are changing. It's like day and night, and I don't feel that it was that way as much with last seasons' players. It would be so hard to not get your emotions involved with people you spend every day with and form bonds with.
The Will decision was bad judgement on Adria's part and it only places a red target on both twins, hence Nik's decision to put both on the block (great move, by the way;)

"hard to not get your emotions involved with people you spend every day with and form bonds with."

Exactly why I wouldn't do well. Office politics and game playing are not my strength, and I defer to the masters on this board. My hubby would be terrific at this game, but I wouldn't survive long.

Now I see why you all like this show so much - it's fascinating to watch how the various strategies and not-so-strategies play out.

And then there's Cowboy - no strategy at all.


Everyone is entitled to my opinion.

Although I agree with most of your post Kelly, I can't say I am fully buying that Diane is a genuinely good person. She spends an awful lot of time putting bugs in the ears of which ever HOH is in control. So far as Drew and Diane's relationship, I think that still remains to be seen in TRW. And by the way, a most gracious welcome to ya Kelly. Are ye Irish, perchance? (Dog offering her paw) Watch out...that's a trick! She can get in close for a wet kiss that way! Aw man, sorry!

yeah how can you think Diane is a good person in the game? she is flip flopping worse than a fish out of water, all the time talking smack about everyone! And less we forget she is the one that got adria to put will up in the first place. Who would have booted one of the twins the first chance he got. They just beat him to the punch! I think the twins were screwed no matter who they got out of the house a traget went up as soon as natalie walked throught that door

6. "RE: True colors"
Well, I don't neccessarily think Diane is a good person in the game. I do think she is rather confused about who she is siding with. I admit she does need to know when to keep her mouth shut. That is her biggest weakness in the game without a doubt. I said she MAY BE a good person in real life. She did the right thing by voting for Will, in spite of her not-so-smart moves previously. As for Will, I agree he would have booted out the twins right away, but I think that the twins voting for Marvin to stay was like a slap in the face to Will. I think Will would have definitely voted out Marvin if one of the twins were in Will's place. We'll find out more tonight! Oh and Vixie, I am 40 percent Irish Thanks for the welcome.

She did the right thing for herself it was a smart move (until hopfully Adria calls her out) I dont think she did it because she was being loyal to Will. She knew the vote was going to be a tie and all the back lash would be directed towards Adria. With her voting to keep Will in she still has the trust of Nikodemus

Very true. She is scared to set off anyone right now, and it was a very smart move because she still has Nikomis' trust for now. She might have been on the block herself had she voted otherwise.I do think Adria will call her out b/c she is feeling desperate, and will do whatever she can to get support from anyone in the house.

13. "RE: True colors"
I totally agree, How easily everyone forgets... It was Diane all along... Natalie's only hope is if it comes out to begin with. It Cracked me up when Nik said it was cause they broke a promise... during the first week, ONLY the Girls were in alliance. The So called Sweetheart of a guy "WILL" went running into the four horsemen and told them the girls were going against the guys... So they started for the Girls immediately. Simply, because Will was only promised he would be the last guy in the house...
Then we change again, and it's everyone in the house against the four horseman, marvin sitting on the sidelines.... with NO known alliance.... They go after Nik, and Adria saved her more than once!
Finally Last night Nik, does the same thing she's been griping about the "Twins" breaking agreements, and puts up her own brother... HOW FREAKING COLD can you be!!!! After she puts him up, she doesn't go up to him and talks it out... she just walks away... Talk about a "%@$!*". She gives that word new meaning...
I am hoping both Twins some how stay in, although it's doubtful.... it will be awesome to see how quickly everyone will turn and be their "New" BEST FRIEND again! I wish America Got to vote on this one.... That would be interesting to see....

I am with you. I could not believe she put up Cowboy. After the ranting about breaking promises and there she goes.

When Nik, Karen and Di where talking about who to put up they made it sound like it was no big deal because Natalie is gone for sure. If it was no big deal, why didn't Diane or Karen volunteer instead of volunteering Drew or Cowboy?

I think Diane is shady and is still playing both sides blantatly. Why don't they see it?

Just wondering why no one seems to remember Will talking about how the twins needed to go before he was ever nominated. Had he, Nic, or Karen won HOH last week, the twins would have been put up, so they beat them to the punch, and they are now the bad guys for it ????

11. "RE: True colors"
I'm confused. Will was mad because he said Adria broke her "pinky promise" but then didn't the twins say that Adria didn't break a promise because it was the other twin who had the "pinky promise" with him and he thought it was Adria? I'm confused on that. Because if that's the case, then the twins are right. But Nikomas said tonight 8/24/04 show that by then both twins were playing. Somebody fill me in please! Thanks. I think you can play with integrity and honest to a point in this game and then it turns - it changes and you have to change your tactics along with the changing personalities and promises, etc. If it was easy and predictable it wouldn't be a fun game, would it? LOL. No challenge! I agree with those posters who say that you vote people out for other reasons than liking them or disliking them. I've seen, as I'm sure lots of you all have, seen people vote out someone they've bonded with. Hey, it's you or them. IMHO.

(It's a dog eat dog game..pant, pant, pant!)
Oh brother! Yes, the game changes, strategies must adjust, and inevitably you need to play your own game, and not the game of others. I think that means that sometimes you must betray certain deals, and make new ones. It's all about doing so as tactfully as possible...sometimes it works, and sometimes not.
There have been winners that weren't fully hated in the end. Even our own evil Dr. Will, played his own game, and many people laughed as they game him thier votes.
If we haven't welcomed you aboard, Inky, we like your posts!

Adria made the pinky swear promise...
Nik said, since they were playing as One person that information of the pinky swear should be held to the twin. (B.S.)
Adria did try to confuse them in who actually said it, but it WAS Adria who made the promise.
Adria broke the promise, and Natalie is catching the brunt of it... but Now Nak has also broken a promise to her Brother!

I agree that Nik made a shady move with her brother, but then again would cowboy do the same if he was head of household? Yoou never know in this game, but I do like Nikomis b/c she is not malicious. She is a strong player, and we will eventually see all of these players stab each other in the back as the numbers get lower. It would be impossible not to. It will just be interesting to see what strategies each chooses. The smart players will choose one that doesn't create hatred towards them after the show, which could be very challenging. ie, Nik's six-finger plan.

19. "RE: True colors"
Nick not malicious? Ha! Since the very first when the twin twist was revealed she, Will and Karen were plotting to break up the twins, now who was breaking the "pinky swear". Then when Adria got HOH they all suddenly hated the "twins"(because Adria didn't consult with them first), when they all knew good and well they were plotting against them first. Doing what was good for "the team", excuse me but "the team" isn't getting 500,000. Only one person is. As for Adria taking Natalie off the block- Natalie wasn't surprised, reason- she and A already agreed on a plan. Marvin got repayment for defending A, she had the tie breaking vote and she used it to repay him. Diane has been playing both sides against the middle so even Drew feels like he can't trust her.

Then you have the loon Karen who really needs medication, siding with Nick, great choice of allies there. I hope Marvin wins this whole thing- I couldn't stand him in the beginining but am thinking the way he and Cowboy have been playing, they are the ONLY ones in the house that hasn't used the cutlery to plant in a "ally's" back.

20. "RE: True colors"
We can talk all we want about Will, Karen, and Nakomis "plotting" to get rid of the twins and setting themselves up to potentially break the pinky swear, but the simple fact is that none of them were ever in the position to do so. We saw them talking a lot of strategy, some of which targeted the twins, but that does not mean that they would have ultimately followed through on it. Adria broke the pinky swear simply because she was HOH and had the power to do so. Will, despite anything he might have said while talking strategy, never had the power to break the pinky swear. Adria drew first blood by being lucky enough to get HOH and make her play against the other members of the pinky alliance. Did Will, Karen, and Nakomis think about drawing first blood if they had the opportunity? Perhaps, but they never set a plan in stone. (Adria's) actions speak louder than (Will's) words.

Excellent point Detective (or may we call you #####?) Dog, behave yourself! Anyway, I like your logical thinking. The HGs have so much time to talk over strategy. I mean, c'mon, what else do they have to do? Well that and fog up mirrors. So when we watch the majority of the talk once a person has won HOH, they frequently go over several scenarios prior to the actual nominations. One can only betray another at that point or during actual voting.
So all that said, we both wish to welcome you to the boards...feel free to be rude to the dog!

22. "RE: True colors"
History detective, I agree that you've made some very valid points about Adra's actions speaking louder then words. When the alliances talk strategy they have to consider every HG, including the twins who posed as the biggest threat to everyone in the house. It did not mean they would decide to vote them out, it meant they were thinking strategically. I still believe Nik is far from a malicious player. She has had class and respect for all of the hg's so far, and the decison she made to put up her brother took a lot of guts, and look what happened? Natalie went just like she planned. It may have been a mistake to put cowboy up, but she had enough respect to talk with him first and give him a heads up. So at least he knew what was coming. Adria, on the other had immediately became secretive as soon as she got HOH, and kept everyone in her alliance completely in the dark.

Secretive doesn't even sum up Adria's behavior. Did you notice that during her various interviews with the other HGs that she never talked much but asked really inappropriate questions? At least, I would have considered them inappropriate if she asked me. "Who do you think is YOUR biggest threat?" rather than "Who do you think is MY biggest threat?" or "Who do YOU most want to stay in the house" rather than "Who do you most think I should keep in the house (other than Natalie)?" It seemed like she wanted everybody else just to open their playbook and inform them of her strategy for the rest of the game. I would never tell Adria "Oh yeah, I want X stay in the game more than anybody else." I can't understand why anybody would reveal that (to any HOH, but especially her).

OMG. There WAS a pinky promise BB has shown it only like a million times in their little black and white flashback moments! But anyways, the twins and their true colours, they are extremely different from when they were switching around. Probably becuase before, they had to hold their tounges and not piss anyone off. It is not their "playing of the game" that is annoying me though, it is their constant crying over basically everything " waaaa, they can't accept us as induviduals" who cares? But yes, i am extremely glad Natalie is gone! I for one was getting really tired of her whining, one won't be so bad. And hopefully, Natalie will have to sleep on the dirty floor Will showed everyone in the secret jury home, I think it would be a good place for her.

Hi Elfie, thanks for your kind words I like Karen too, but I find her to be a weak player. She has been playing the underdog this entire game, until tonight of course with the veto. Outside of the house, I truly belive she has a good heart. She has done well for herself by avoiding drama. I LOOOVE Nikomis. She is so liberating and independent. I think we all know she is my favorite by now(next to Will of course). As for Diane, I totally agree. "Snake in the grass" describes her role perfectly right now. Her weakness is her big mouth too. I think she's a good person, but I also think she will get herself in trouble with many of the HGs since she has made almost each and every one of them promises. She can't keep them all can she? Welcome Elfie!

Like and agree with your viewpoints again, Kelly, on all but Karen. I think she is more in the game than we might realize....but that's just me. Again, not stupid by any means, but a little looniness can be a good thing.

Vixie, usually i would totally agree with you but i don't know, Karen kind of reminds me of a fence post, sort of just there with no mind of it's own, and if someone wants to take her out they can kind of thing. Yet at the same time maybe this is some sort of act, if ducking below the radar is what she wants to do then she is doing an extremely good job of it. And sigh...I miss Will.

(I miss Will, too!)

I think A mentioned in the diary room that Karen's biggest stumbling block is her fear. She seems to be getting worse as the time goes on. In the beginning, when Will was there, she could get quite feisty in the diary room. Now, she's more subdued. I'm disappointed, because I thought in the beginning, "Great, here's a Jersey girl who's going to be a fighter." But, she can't seem to get up her courage.

I think she'd be more powerful in the sequester/jury house. Without the pressure, she might actually become a force in the final decision. For that reason, as much as I really, really like Karen, I think she should go.

I have to agree with Vixie....Karen is playing this game, she is playing the game far better than what the editing is giving her credit for. She is in line with every member of the house, they are the ones who are not seeing her as a threat. Once again I will say that...Watching the feeds and then reading the transcripts from more than one site (because each site is a little biased for who they like, and their are 4 cameras to watch) has given me a whole new outlook on Karen. She is playing as well as if not better than most of the HG's, and she is doing it UTR without making enemies. I personally would not like to be a player and sit next to her in the final 2. I also think that it isn't fear that is keeping her from using POV, but intelligence..why would she use it and put a huge target on her back?? She would only then be in a two man alliance against the rest of the house. Karen may have just told A that to get A to leave her alone, or to continue the little "don't worry about me, I am emotionally dysfunctional" persona.

I agree with syren about Karen's "fear" when it came to using the veto on Adria. It wasn't fear that held her back; she just needed an excuse to get the bully to (hopefully) back off a little bit. (Ever notice that if something is important to Adria then she assumes and insists that it must be important to everybody else, that she is entitled to know everybody's plans and gain their assistance?) And, in the end, Karen worked hard (and smart) to win the Veto because she did have a stake in who won or lost.
Of course, she could have played it differently. Instead of using her "fear" strategy with Adria, she could have just told Adria what Adria wanted to hear and then not tried very hard to win the competition. It worked out better this way though because she avoided making a promise (or a pinky swear) to Adria and didn't have to go back on her word.

I hope you're right about Karen, because she's been one of my favorites since the beginning. Do you think she'd be able to survive against CB, if it came down to the two of them. I know I'm a bad person, but I just don't like the guy.

I think that Karen could definitely win against Cowpat, but it would be close. Karen could count on Nakomis and Will to vote for her. (You could argue that Nakomis might be swayed by the fact that they are, unfortunately, related. Cowpat has worked at crosspurposes from her during the entire game, however, making it easy for her to justify not voting for him at the end. I can't remember if the pinky swear included any promises about voting on the jury...) Considering that Cowpat seems to turn Diane's stomach, that's a third vote for Karen. Natalie and Adria would vote for Cowpat because he's their long-lost non-genetic "brother." (Nakomis will happen to lose his phone humber before the next family reunion so Double Trouble will adopt him into their family.) I imagine that Drew would vote for Cowpat as well, just out of some semblance of honor and loyalty to the Horsemen alliance at the end, although his honor seems to blow in the wind. (Drew might feel that he has to vote for Cowpat since he knows that Scott and Jase will be there for the finale and he'll have to face them. We don't want to see the two biggest bullies make our precious "clean as a whistle" guy cry on national TV again. Cowpat will be blubbering enough as it is.) So, that's three votes each for Karen and Cowpat, making Marvin the swing vote. Although he could base his decision on who needs the money more, I get the sense that Marvin would vote for whoever he found less annoying. That could be a toss up, but I think that Cowpat has a way of getting under your skin that Karen's cycle of hysterics just cannot compete with. Besides, Karen has carefully played an UTR game whereas Cowpat has followed the bullies around like a pathetic little puppy dog. Karen may be quiet, but it's because she's thinking. Cowpat talks a lot but doesn't seem to say much of anything (because Scott isn't around to tell him what to think any more).

So, long answer short, I think that Karen could just barely eke out a victory over Cowpat.
