I got really excited about that sight around the same time Howie went of on Busto and threatened to eat her dog (or something like that). The feeds frequently went dark and on more than one occassion house guests were segregated and given "talkings to" by Big Brother.

Anyways, I can't find the site anymore. Does anyone have suggestions?

My favorite site that I have been using is:

It's great. It gives you condensed writeups but also gives you videos if you want to watch what happened unfold. Gives you spoilers on all the competitions, HOH's and POV's as well. Great site.

Thanks. The site I used to go to had much briefer write ups submitted a few times an hour. This is more in depth and the videos are a nice touch too.

That's it! Thanks. Doesn't look as awesome as I remember it though...

Spoiler:

Finally Amber is voted out by 3-1, HOH competition is still in progress. I'm so happy, after a while I couldn't stand Amber. Every time they had a dairy room session or if someone was voted out she would cry.

Spoilers in white: Nomination Ceremony

Zach (HOH this week) nominated Jessica and Jameka for eviction.

Spoiler: POV Competition Results in white.

Daniele won the Power of Veto.

I'm kinda torn between who's gonna go home on Thursday in the first eviction. I really want Jameka to go, she's been useless, but my head is telling me that D & D are gonna do the smart thing and send home Jess. D & D are in quite the position, they essentially decide who goes home this week and next.

Cant wait for the double eviction this week, gonna be a shock to the house.

Anyone know why they havent shown any clips of the sequester house??? I would love to see something from there like they usally do.

[Slava]

I kind of think that the smart thing for them to do is to send Jameka home. They made a deal with Jess and Eric, and they should stick to it. Honestly, they can be assured of a final four spot if they send Jameka...if not, then they could be out next. (If someone else wins HOH, they will surely put up D&D for eviction immediately).

Interesting to see what happens on Thursday though!

[fredr123]

Jameka is unable to compete for HOH again. Zach can't compete because he's outgoing HOH. If you get rid of Jess, one of Dick or Daniele has to beat Eric and you're golden: final four. We know this is a double eviction week though so that might affect our strategy a bit. Doesn't mean anything to the houseguests right now though.

On the other hand, if you get Jameka out then you have a 4/4 chance that one of your alliance members will win HOH. Then you punt Zach and you've lived up to your promise and the four of them are all that remain.

The smart play is to ditch Jess now, in my opinion. It goes against their own alliance but since when have ED and Dani been afraid to fudge the truth and do what serves them best?

I am so embarrassed that I am now addicted to this stupid show.

I started watching it about four weeks ago because I got home from work on Sunday and was too tired to change the channel, and I became intrigued. Now I am hooked. Which is odd, because I don't really watch anything but NFL football, NHL hockey, Sportscentre, PTI, The National, and the occasional dose of The Hour or The Daily Show or something like that. I hate reality TV, but I have succumbed to this show. I hate myself.

But all kidding aside, I don't know what it is about this show that makes it so watchable for me. It might be the duality of all the contestants, and the fact that I'm a newbie and know veyr little about the history/strategy of the game probably helps too. Anyways, just want to say that I enjoy the discussion in this thread.

It's in Dick's best interest to keep Jessica, IMO. It has been his 'game' to be boldly and bluntly honost. He's had some slips, but he hasn't played a shifty game, he's played an open faced game so far.

He turns now, and his game is shot IMO. People want to sit beside them in the finals, cause no one in the house wants to vote for him. He screws Eric, he'd be the one with the biggest target to be the next gone... providing America's Vote. Anyone else sitting beside his daughter, and it's arguably a split vote... much closer than if Dick is up there with her. Jamika's eviction keeps the ballance, then Zack goes... Danielle and Dick are stronger than Eric and Jessica, IMO... and I think they can see that too... keep the balance, and then go for the jugular later.

Rumor has it that CBS messed up and left one of America's Players cards on the chair with Eric's name on it when Jen walked into the diary room. Jen looked at this and found out the twist of the season. If you recall she called Eric "Mr. America" the following episode. There are also rumors that she indeed didn't go to the Jury House.

In terms of the game, it's in the Donato's best interest to get rid of Jessica this week and i'm pretty sure that's what will happen. HOH then can only be played by Dick, Daniele, and Eric. Pretty good chance of one of the Donato's winning HOH and then nominating Eric and Jameka. As long as Eric didn't win POV then the final four would be Dick, Daniele, Zach and Jameka. Not much competition then to get to the final 3 as a minimum. I think that's the best move for them at this time. I really want to see the two Donato's in the final two!

It's Daniele! Wowzas! Talk about hottie!

Dick is my favorite character on the show though... I love how he's a complete prick to everyone... love it.

good analysis. I'm still not sure they resist the temptation to evict Jessica this week, but as you say he's actually trying to play the 'brutally honest' card, and he'd be pooching too many votes right now. its not dishonest for the donatos to take out Jessica and Eric in the final 4, but it could be perceived as that now, and that's 2 votes at risk in the 'endgame'

I've read that they are going to show the sequester house this week for the 1st and last time until the end. Rumors have been flying from what I read.. basically the 3 big ones are:

1. (as read above) Jen found an America's Player card in the Diary Room and knows the twist/ Refused to go to the sequester house (it makes sense because Jen had said MULTIPLE TIMES she would not go to sequester because she could make more money doing her modeling and babysitting Vanna White's kids than staying at sequester for $1000 a week.)

2. Dustin was asked by an interviewer what he thought about the America's Player twist this year. So they've had to seperate all the houseguest in different sequesters.

3. The houseguest were delayed getting to sequester because of a Hurricane hitting Cabo (actually matches up as Cabo has been hit by 2 in the last 3 weeks). This happened last year and previous years.. wonder if they will ever learn its not smart to put the sequester house in a Hurricane hot-bed during Hurricane season!?!?

But.. should be interesting to find out exactly what happened and how things will shake down.. This week will be awesome seeing 2 people evicted but I feel like its going to be Jessica and than Eric back-to-back which I hate.. Eric, Jess and Dick are definitely favs in my book..Danielle, although kinda hot... I hate.

Does Jen really babysit Vanna White's kids?

Where are you finding all these rumours and how are these rumours starting?

[mrdeeds]

The rumours are from people who watch the live feeds and there are a few websites including CBS where rumours and spoilers are commonly discussed.
