It continues to blow my mind that Jackie and the rest thought they were good with Steve. What part of never talking game, never socializing with him, and always talking about him as an easy, expendable target makes you good with him?

When Becky joins those two I expect it to be a week of very angry, bitter, and utterly misguided Vanessa hate considering Vanessa had next to nothing to do with any of their evictions.

It's almost comical that Vanessa is getting all the credit when you have a 3 player voting block controlling the game.

The thing is, even AusTwins only played a role in these three evictions. Shelli went home because James and Meg flipped on her because she targeted them the week earlier, Steve took out Jackie because he had been on other side of the house all season, and Becky just played a bad game and doesn't have anyone loyal to her (except Johnny) because she played the middle way too long. All three jurors were taken out because of their own game mistakes.

Really it's an old school comp reinvented. It's basically the BB6 pressure cooker comp Jen screwed Kaysar over in or the BB5 button one right after the twins came in. It's "hold a button and don't get distracted because we're going to stretch this poo poo out to gently caress with you." I assume they're going to really drag out some of these rounds and try to just break them down.

Love this comp, we've haven't seen anything like this in awhile.

Also seems SUPER easy to throw to Johnny once Vanessa and James are gone.

I'll believe they're all throwing when it happens. Its easy to say you feel safe when you're sitting safe in an easy week but standing there looking at how small the numbers are you gotta wonder how many of them really feel safe.

I know I rather be HOH and have the dilemma of choosing which deal to break than be sitting downstairs hoping that the HOH keeps his or her word with me and doesn't find out that I've been cutting deals with everyone. This entire house is sketchy and that breeds paranoia.

When they were talking about having made it to the final 8, they said "First final 8". Does that mean they've got it figured out that someone is coming back into the house next week?

Last night's episode was kind of boring. Steve's family :snore:
James' childish scare pranks

And.Zingbot's greatest hits - what was the point of that? Just to kill more time because nothing much happened since Sunday?!

It seems like the guests aren't telling people they're leaving until right before eviction so they don't have a lot of campaigning footage.

Guess you probably shouldn't win HOH if you are in an alliance with everybody in the house.

Kind of annoyed how people are making GBS threads on Steve for not wanting to be up on the block as a pawn. Pawns go home etc etc. Don't ask them how they feel about it and be surprised when they don't want to do it, especially with so few people left.

Come on Steve, be a team player, lets us gently caress you in the rear end here and put you up as a pawn against your closest ally in the house. Come on, we will be slow and gentle for you.

And still, none of these dumbasses seems to have noticed that the final three will be Austin, Liz and Julia.

I was face-palming so hard the other day when Steve and JM were all "we should should form an alliance of 2, who should we join with? The Austwins? Great idea!".

Was pretty disappointed with Steve. He has played a terrible game for a superfan so far (coasting for far too long), but I at least expected him to recognize strategically that going in as a 2 against an impenetrable 3 was incredibly dumb.

Well, now they're on the block together.

Austin is so insufferable. Holy poo poo.

Anyway that trio is super powerful but it's also super obvious. Liz will by necessity be put up next to Austin/Julia either the next time it's possible or the time after that, even if they are allied with everyone. The only one who might not do it would be Johnny Mac because he cares more about getting rid of Vanessa than he does about the game, which is probably why they should have put up James and Meg this week.

I mean obviously the situation sucks but Steve's negotiating skills are flawed. You can't just tell the HoH no.

I think part of it is he thinks he runs game in the house when it's more Shelli/Vanessa/twins have pitied and baby brothered him and that's how he stayed. Not really grasping the social context for what it is could be his biggest problem.

That was a good episode. All the credit to Austin because I still think there's a good chance next week's HoH targets Vanessa instead of the three.

Maybe. But in the past Vanessa has talked herself off the block with muuuuch flimsier arguments than "there is literally a power trio left in this house."

Playoffs are no big deal,

I am surprised the Austwins continually manage to escape suspicion that they're working with the entire house. Also, that they are never discussed as a power trip.
