What's the over/under on mactors/bartenders this season?

I'm gonna set the o/u line at 16, with the median age of the hamsters at 21.75 years.

Oh man, Christopher Walken Dad is just too cool for this BB universe, isn't he?
He's gonna be first boot and I'm going to be so mad. :ssj:

Just based on the interview with Big Jeff that guy has a story about every minutiae of life you throw at him.

Yeah, that seems assured. It would probably add an additional DE to the schedule.

I'm hoping the consequences will still include unique punishments for the winners. It's fairly lovely if they just apply to the whole house.
I'm sure that is in the works, with silly costumes or forced slop for a few weeks and what-not.
They couldn't do that with the $25k prize because then Christopher Walken would have been really exposed and hosed and it was all a means to get Friendship into the house anyways.

What hidden solo punishments could there be?

No vote during eviction, i.e. go into diary but can't vote for someone?
No chip during veto pull? This would narrow down the potential winners but still could be ambiguous if there are enough people in the house.
One of those ridiculous 24 hour tasks (ie soccer goal kicking) where if you don't make the goal, yer going on the block.

Oh I see... yeah, the no veto chip in the bag is pretty smart and innocuous but that doesn't rule out a Hamster's Choice Pick loophole.

In your consequences scenario couldn't there be a fourth option in:

House public penalty, Further House penalty if a penalty task is not completed?

This was done to moderate success throughout the Australian version of BB where their BB ruled with an iron fist and wasn't a pushover.

I'm watching the fallout since Paul's HOH win and I an absolutely delighted watching Jessica and Cody's fall from grace. I don't particularly like the fact Paul won but with his immunity what better way to burn a week than with an HOH win. He's only safe next week then he is back down in the streets.

Cody and Jessica did everything wrong the very first HOH week (the loooong week). They hooked up, they hosed and continued to ostracize themselves from the rest of the house. It's a big uphill climb to get out from under and neither have any inclination to right their sinking ship and change or at the least behave and cohabitate with "the rubes".

Cody and Jessica's crew abandoned them rightfully so but yet they are pity partying and claiming victim. gently caress those two self-righteous pricks. They reap what they have sewn.

And Paul's possible hair-brained ideas are only gonna leave them stewing. Dare I say Friendship Week could be the best week? I say this not as the biggest Paul fan too.

Christmas bouncing because of her surgery and Cody hitting the bricks would be the most lovely poetic justice this week can provide.

Jessica would be unable to process it but in pure Jess fashion she will deal with it in the most immature method available.

This is like Thanksgiving... because it gives and gives.

The den of temptation was today. I don't believe anybody on stream has said they have it. My money is on Kevin
Word on the streets is it's Jessica... or at least Paul is worked up that she does and is trying to bait her to use it by flipping the house votes or at least appear that he is. :munch:

Not exactly a great move because if she burns the temptation she AND Dom still remain AND a hamster resurrection is still on.

On one hand I'm glad Cody is back because I think he's hilarious and he just said he was coming after Paul. On the other hand I'm not looking forward to Cody+Jess shacking back up and becoming intolerable again. Is it too much to hope that they've learned from this and will be more sociable and play a better game?
Jessica will maybe corral Cody in a little bit because she had made some social inroads since he'd left. She was almost pleasant. Cody will get some more Jess on his hanglow and they will likely both become an insufferable couple again.

Only difference is they are pretty much untouchable the first time they are on the block. It takes two weeks to break these two up because of Jessica's "power". Which begs the question as to what the curse of Jessica's power will do? There is something in the works, that much is guaranteed.

"Just like Florida" is a bad, bad sell, my man.

I like my seasons, lack of any real natural disasters, non-scary pests and wildlife, and not having to wake up before noon for football.

But you guys gotta go and delay stuff for us because you might be at work or eating dinner or something when we're all getting ready for bed. Jerks.

Jessica's hex supposedly comes with a curse that will change-up the game mechanics on the entire house... whatever the hell that means. This is per Chenbot last week or the week before.

Speculation is fruitless at this point shortly before the show airs tonight but I have nothing but high hopes it'll go over like a wet fart.

It's the right play, even if it makes Paul's HOH a moot point.
Jess' power has to be flushed out.

Now the onus is on Jess, if Cody wins Veto and takes Jess off (to be loyal and chivalrous and yadda yadda yadda) or Jess wins and takes herself off does she burn her power just for another week of snuggle time with Cody or put it in her pocket for the next round down the road?

Sure anything can happen, Jess and Cody could win HOH after the reset and then they'll be up in HOH being smug but is that option really in Jess' best interest? Hard to say.

Jess and Cody are superficial as gently caress and both up their own asses so of course Jess will use her power if either one of them remains on the block come Thursday.

I'd guess that's Jess' "career concern" since she name drops celebrities and acts like a big shot. She was talking yesterday about how sad she was that she missed Nicole Aniston's Memorial Day party. So as much as she talks about "black balling" the other HGs the reality is she has no power to do that and she's just posturing, but CBS could probably black ball her from quite a bit.
Since no one else has decided to key in to this tidbit of info, I will. Nicole Aniston is a porn contract girl. I know this because of research err, I mean, I've watched porn before. If these are the career circles Jessica is networking in, CBS couldn't give a flying finger of gently caress if she goes "professional" via Chatsworth. Hell, this wouldn't be the first time with BB9 James doing gay porn and that trainwreck of a mess Michelle from BB11. Even Ozzy from Survivor did a porn based reality show for the Playboy Channel.

Anyways, all I'm saying is Jessica doth protests too much... but I guess she does have a certain factor that certain Simi Valley studios look for.

Josh advised against it since he's a jury vote but Paul pretty much reiterated that he doesn't think about Jury Management.
Josh is smart to talk Paul away from doing this.
All it will do is expose Paul as not being true to his word because he helped Kevin deflect deflect deflect the accusations that Kevin took the $25K and helped pin it on Ramses every chance he got.

It's not the Ace-In-The-Hole Paul thinks it is at this point. In BB world it's really digging up ancient history.

Jason won POV. Should spell the end for Mark. Should be a nothing week. Kevin might try and get Matt out instead and maybe Mark will try and sell that he's alone and no threat but I wouldn't expect much. Raven, Josh, Alex, Paul, and Christmas all seem like safe votes against Mark.
Raven better cherish her days because her and the blue shirted cereal bandit are not long for this BB world and both are too oblivious to see it coming.

I guess everyone is as invested as I am at this stage but at some point today Paul used the POV on Alex and Kevin went up. Jason and Alex think Kevin is the target and Paul reassured Kevin that he's fine and to just play like he's going home. I have no details or opinion because I didn't turn the feeds on today and ain't gonna start now.
I haven't watched since the Jody Drama Show and why should I? You have been a better source of information... doing the Lord's work and all. But, wouldn't this move be the presence of a small kink in the Teflon armor of Paul?

I guess he had to do it so to keep playing his ping-pong alliance game but @F7 Paul might very well be showing his cards too hastily. Christmas has been onto Paul's ruse for awhile now.

If ever there was a time to flip the script, now would be that time but it won't happen because the dumb-dumbs will look to Paul for sage advice.

Soooo, use veto on Alex and force Josh to put up Xtree thereby having absolute voting control with Paul and Alex?

I think that's how it will go... and then Paul will sidle up with Alex and begin Operation: Character Assassination Josh as they bounce Kevin to set up F4 with a gimpy Xtree and an emotionally shattered Josh that has to sit back and watch it all happen.
