I was talking about the houseguests/not moves. If it's moves then Lawon gets 2nd for me. #1 for me is still Marcellus. He won POV when he was on the block, didn't use it and Jason (HOH) voted him out. Marcellus was so shocked.

Well, can't be too bright to have that as your strategy.

For moves, now a days using the veto on yourself is about as basic as it gets but he had to ask himself how others would view it. So I understand putting Marcellus up there, but Big Brother was still in it's infancy and it was the first season of the veto. I don't know if it was the worst move ever. (But completely understand with people who say it was).

First needing to stay in the game because of a veto could be a strike against him in the jury vote. It was a new power and people aren't always friendly to "twists" that result in someone staying when they shouldn't. And he has to get his hands dirty if he was off the block. Not using it on himself, he doesn't need to vote someone else out, shows he had the game under control to the jury (of course if he was actually in control like he was thinking) and might actually have a better chance of winning. Or at least that's how I've tried to convince myself there's not actually these dumb of people out there.

With Lawon, there's just not much of a saving grace with his strategy.

Absolutely dumbest player. 25 years old lives in his parents basement works as a lifeguard in the summer and unemployment in the winter. He literally has no clue what's going on in the house. No clue whatsoever.


Elissa's strategy has been extremely poor. She would have fared a lot better had she come clean on opening night about her sister. That said if you are the Moving Company why would you want a person with a big bulls eye on their back evicted? Best to keep her around next week to ensure that she takes priority as I get the feeling if a woman gets HOH that they may start trying to pick off the men.

McCrae is a pretty akward dude and I see him being the first of the alliance to be cut lose. If Elissa gets evicted it will be a poor week for him.

Definitely more spice to the cast this season from last.
Elissa winning MVP considering most of the BB sites and youtube have slammed her even being part of the cast since she was introduced to the show. Ya ok CBS.
David is so brain dead reminds me of a typical rich kid from Malibu that has no clue about life period, "brah".
He sounds like Bill and Ted rolled into 1 but his stupidity is good for a laugh.
McCrae isn't cut out for this game, talk about a dude that can't handle situations.
Amanda looks to have a strong game.

I don't watch Big Brother but saw this article and apparently the racism and homophobia is out of control this season. A few of the "highlights"

Quote:
-- GinaMarie referred to welfare as “n**ger insurance”
-- Aaryn called gay contestant Andy a "queer."
-- Spencer referred to Andy as “Kermit the F**" ... and praised Hitler as a gifted speaker.

I thought "queer" was a PC term these days.

Apparently Aaryn got dropped from her modeling agency for her racy comments.

I read her comments and it pretty obvious she has a lot of growing up to do. You can't treat people that way. Sounds like there has been a fair bit of drama in the house. I wonder how much of it will make it to TV.

On Joker's Updates they have her as the most popular house guest right now based on user votes so she clearly does have a following.

I believe it. People like to bitch and complain and hate a lot more than sing someone's praises that's why you'll see more folks in Internet forums blasting her.

She does have fans and I totally believe that first week MVP vote is legit.

Without a co-ordinated action to pick one specific person over Elissa, Elissa doesn't need majority support to win MVP. She can get it by vote-splitting amongst the others. That's first-past-the-post for ya!

I actually don't mind Elissa so far, she's vastly less annoying than Rachel was.

I like Jessie and Amanda. Possibly Howard but he's a little stereotypical for me. Nick thinks too highly of himself and Jeremy is a hothead.

What an annoying episode. Sound cut out when Julie explained how the HOH would be decided.

These potty mouths need to tone it down in the live shows so the viewers can hear what's going on.

Yep. that was frustrating, but we got to hear David say "I'm a smart guy", so that was one hell of an episode if you ask me.

I shouldn't be surprised that she has an instant following because of her sister. Just another reason the house should wise up and get her out. The longer she stays in the game the bigger the threat she is to everyone. That moving alliance thinks they can control her mvp votes moving forward they are fools.
If they really have paid attention to how past BB seasons have gone they would realize you get the competition out when the opportunity is there and not when you think you can get them out later.

Hey oilfan, there was cheering and booing from the live audience after each vote was cast for the first few people, then it went away. Was there a producer on site telling you guys to shut the hell up?

It's too bad that CBS isn't willing, or capable, of showing the true colours of some of these players.

But Gina Marrie and Aaryn have reportedly been fired from their jobs. Going to be a nice little surprise when they get evicted.. It's too bad that the longer they last the better chance they have on capitalizing on some of their infamy though.

Spoiler!
