Paul – you’re genuine and you’re kind

Paul – that does not deserve second or first space
Nicole agree..
Paul – he was banking on winning that endurance.., he’s scared shitless, he’s playing you in the mental comp.. concentrate don’t freak out
Nicole – he’s dirty he makes people stand on the wall for 5 hours says he’s not putting them up then puts them up

They move to the kitchen.
Paul says that was the hardest endurance competition they’ve had.

Paul says James has Michelle, Natalie, Bridgette and Da in the Jury

Nicole – ya

11:50pm
Paul – I wonder if they have fun weird stuff for us..
Nicole says they have the special final 3 dinner
Nic – and we get the smaller table

Big-Brother-18- 2016-09-15 03-32-42-737

12:05am In the kitchen – Paul tells Nicole – I’m going to try and psych him out. Nicole – yeah. Paul – and be like look bro she’s good at mental comps. Nicole – no because then he’ll study stuff. Paul – okay then I’ll be like look dude it doesn’t matter. Nicole – yeah. Paul – you’re right, that’s better, that’s better. Nicole – yeah.


James joins Paul in the kitchen – James says you did it. You pretty much 75% secured your spot in the final 2. Paul – one more comp. James – where is everyone. Paul – everyone.. Nicole went to bed. Paul – I’ve got butterflies and crazy sh*t going on. Big Brother calls Paul to the diary room. James goes to talk with Nicole. James – I know if I lose this next HOH comp, I’ll be at the mercy of you an Paul. Nicole – well you don’t have to worry you know who I would take. James – well I guess I just need to throw it to you hub. Nicole – 1000% I wouldn’t even consider any other option. James – well make it an easy comp then. Nicole – it will probably be a puzzle. James – I can max out on a puzzle too. Nicole – I would 1000% take you. James – the two vets! Nicole – I know there are people in the jury that aren’t happy with me. I know Michelle and Da aren’t. Paulie and and Corey are the only ones maybe. Nicole – Natalie and Michelle would be for you. Da let me know she was talking mad sh*t about me. I definitely don’t have Da. Literally the best I can do is second place. I would be fine with second place. Even Zingbot said I would never win this game. Everyone who left dragged my name through the mud. Its going to be very hard for me to even talk to the jury.

1:30am – 2:15am James joins Paul in the kitchen – Paul – are you ready for that comp? Its definitely going to be a mental comp. How do you feel about that? James – well.. Paul – she is not beating me. As long as I’m there she is not beating me. None of us can have her in the final 2, she would win. James – no. Paul – she would win. She’s a beast. You and me, its a coin toss. Paul and James head to bed. James – I just hate that you won all these comps. I just want to bring something to the table. Like help out. Paul – I don’t care. I don’t care if I have to win all the comps as long as we get there. James – its depressing. James and Paul go to sleep.

Yes! Let’s go, Paul!

PAULIE'S THROAT

Paul is shattering production dreams right about now.

Anonymous

You know that what day comp was supposed to be Nicoles, but production got ahead of themselves cuting it up like baseball for corey;

Anonymous

i know really, a baseball themed days comp? for F4 veto? production is not even trying to hide it anymore. it’s disgusting.

Are you kidding me

Where are all the production conspiracy posters now?
It was obvious that the counts for Cory were way lower than they should have been. He was flying around the bases and Paul was a lot slower.
Looks like production wanted Paul to win.
And James isn’t throwing or giving away comps. He’s loosing them!

I don't think so...

if im not mistaken corey flew in the baseball comp, however, he missed one number and had to start over. and hit too soon on another. it was COREYS mistake, otherwise he would of won?

Replay the last game

It wasn’t by one number. He wasn’t behind by 1 button’s points.
On the LAST game a snapshot of both showed Cory behind the slower Paul by 10!
Cory hit the button at 38 when he clearly thought the count was 58.
And right after that Paul only went around one more time to make 58. Making the slower Paul ahead of Cory by over 15 points!
Clearly fixed by production.

Anonymous

Of course they wanted Paul to win veto ..they didn’t expect to him win HOH. If somemine else had one HOH then they wanted Cory to win it.
But they had to have Cory lose it to keep James safe. To me he just couldn’t have been that bad even if he missed.

bbfan1

Production did want Paul to win…he’s Vanessa but more obnoxious, if that’s possible. He has bullied these HGs all season. And James, what the hell is he doing? I’m so sick of Production interfering. How is Paul still there? Oh yeah, they gave a HG not one, but two chances to come back, thus ruining all the HG’s games. If Victor didn’t return, Paul would have been long gone.

Anonymous

Bully? Seriously? Lol

Liar,Liar, Pantsuits on Fire

Congrats Paul. You are half way there.

Hillary Lied Four People Died

Paul is going to win this. I can taste it.

dirty hands

Sorry but from what Paul said last nigh on live feeds even simon and Dawg reported it.. Nicole asks Paul if he and Vic will be BBF outside the house. Paul says they will be friends but they have very different lives. .In other words NO I have money and consider myself cultured . Victor is some lowly guy from no where and nobody. Everyone thanks Paul is so great but he’s a rich KID who acts like he did it all himself .He also dresses like he’s a tough streetsie guy POSER. He used Victor and had no intention of really being his friend. He will not invite him to his Halloween parties or anywhere. I am sure production told him to pair up with Vic to clean his image up. Yes I have sour Grapes. I think Victor is legitimately nice guy and hate to see him disappointed

Anonymous

I’ve seen you post this before and don’t really understand why you think this is such a big deal? He said they would be friends. End of story. You’re trying to turn it into something diabolical and it’s just not that deep.

Hilldog Down

I can see making a case for all three players left. I was wanting Vic to win but I guess now I want the winner of the final HOH to go all the way. These players need to show us who wants it the most.

Lying Hillary Wipes the Server

Even Joeza wanted it more than James.

Just Sayin'

They do have completely different lives… Paul is the head of a rocker clothing company and Vic is studying finances and working as a personal trainer. Not to mention the fact that they live in different states. I think Paul was being realistic, of course they will stay friends but best friends would be impossible.

Winterfell

Not to mention the fact that he has a best friend who was part of his family segment. At the time there was some teasing about the guy being jealous that Paul was so close to Paulie. There’s always room for more friends, but not everyone is your best bud.

Sammi

I’m sorry, but in my opinion you have completely made things up here.
You do *not* know these guys, and you can’t even start to think you know why Paul said something. If you’re only reading what Simon and Dawg write, then you didn’t hear the whole conversation, or the tone of voice, or the feelings behind it. You’re reading the highlights in written words that you’re putting your own thoughts, meanings and feelings into.
Paul and Vic *are* completely different. But just a few days ago, Paul was encouraging Vic to come and live in LA with him. Paul has never acted like he was better than anyone else. So…what you said says volumes about you, not about Paul.

Well

@sammi Dirty hands posed this similar statement before Dawg and Simon posted it on their board and they said they had saw it on the live feeds. They may feel the way they do because
.1.Paul made a final 2 deal with Nicole before Natalie was even gone(so I guess he wasn’t taking Vic)
.2. Paul can be arrogant probably his age 23
.3. He actually wanted Vic out the first time.
.4. He only became loyal to Vic after Paulie bailed on him.
This forum is for people to express their opinions about the houseguest. This is all so a scripted reality show. Dirty hands can express their opinion and maybe we should not judge each others characters because to be fair you don’t know them. OBB is here for us to express our frustrations with the cast not throw barbs at each other. If you don’t agree with someone than express your argument. I personally don’t care who wins any longer my people are out. They all have their faults but I watch anyways. Cheers

well

@ Sammi Dirty Hands is allowed to have their opinion about the guest. They had already express this opinion way before Dawg and Simon posted what they did because dirty hands said they have live feed. Maybe they feel the way they do because.
1 Paul made a final deal with Nicole even before Natalie was gone.
2. Paul can be arrogant but he is 23
3. Paul did not pair up with Victor until after Paulie bailed on him.
4. Paul also wanted Victor out when Paulie and he were together.
This is how you play the game though. This is a scripted “reality show” we all come here to expess are opinion about the guest its what this board is for. Sammi in all fairness you don’t know dirty hands and why are we on here attacking each other for different interpretation of a show. Cheers

I don't think so...

I believe paul to be a straight up guy. I have 3 sets of friends in my world and luv them all, however, the sets are all equal in my heart, however, are totally different in lifestyles and personalities. Vic may not fit into the particular ‘friends’ paul may be referring to at home, but I believe paul will maintain friendships with his bb housemates, especially vic. They are California/florida apart. I don’t believe vic has the monies to go all over. If I recall he’s not all into the ‘gambling’ as such as they all want to go. He’d rather keep it in his pocket. I think vic is not about to throw away much of what he gets from this. just sayin!

lying hilLIARy does the faceplant

Paul seems like the type of guy who will probably be friends with everyone after the show.

Hmm...

They’ve known each other for 3 months, saying he was going to be life long friends with Victor is jumping the gun. Much like Nicole thinking Corey’s going to marry her and have little snakelettes with her is ridiculous. People bond in the house because they have little option and you get a skewed view of people. I doubt Nicole is a complete snake outside the house and she’s probably a nice person in reality. So these two people will try to have a friendship from more than a thousand miles away while living two separate lives. Anything more is naive.

Danton

The house is summer camp. Somewhere people are kept close and in constant contact in an intense and a really artificial manner. Doing things they not only would never do but is mandatory for them to do. And just like in summer camp close friendships and even summer flings happen. And after it ends many will want to keep in contact promising to do and then probably won’t. At first they will call or email or text or use this app or that. Maybe even meet up a time or two. But after not seeing each other due to geography drift away.

They all understand it. Both Corey and Nicole have said while they want to be friends they have no idea what will happen when they leave. Corey seems more certain than Nicole but that may have been him trying to impress the guys around him with what a “player” he is. But in the end I doubt Nicole wants to move to Texas. Corey sure as hell does not want to move to nowhereville Michigan. And neither seems like a good candidate to go into acting in LA. And both have decent professional prospects. Same way unless Victor and Paul fall madly in love chances are they are not living together either. Though I could see Victor moving to LA and trying his hand at acting. But Paul has a business to run and despite all his tall tales about “partying” unlike in the house he actually has stuff to do. In fact he probably only did the show as a way to promote his business with actually winning it a secondary concern.

Lying Hillary Left Our Men to Die at Benghazi

Does anyone know if there were any survivors from the Jury House last night?

In That Order

In That Order:
September 7, 2016 at 6:37 pm

Evictions:
Tomorrow: Natalie
Next: Victor
Then: Corey…

Final Three: Paul, James, Nicole

James wins final competition, and takes Nicole..

Final two: James and Nicole.
**Remember this post when it happens**

— In That Order

Ian's Lament

Hilarious that you think James would win something

James

If james wins any comp against nic or paul, its becuz they were beat to death by random trolls leaving james the only one in the comp
go home james

MrWrong

umm yeah take it easy nostradamus sorry but nobody here is impressed my ten year old could come up with that genius prediction.. my question is what are you going to say to us all when your completely wrong or will you merely fade away into the abyss never to be heard of again lol

JJtoWin

I have seldom LOL’d at comments this year (for whatever reason), but you got me there. Thanks!

You again?

Are you go planning to post this exact same thing another 27 times after James DOES NOT win the final competition?

James

My thoughts were dead on correct. From the pic above, james in a towel…hair all wet and looking exactly as it will until the next shower. He hasn’t groomed himself since nat left and pretty much stopped b4 she left…guess the honeymoon is over.

paul's nose

I sure hope pauls nose is red from crying from joy and not cuz its infected?? bb wouldn’t let a hg get that way??

Hilldog Down

I still can’t believe that jury house blowup. Paulie and Da both suck!

Snakey Nic

It’s official on CBS site James won AFP ugh

James

I really think James will forget all about Natalie once he meets Corey’s sister. I’ll bet they hit it off really good both being in Texas.

Big Sister

Yes!! I put in my 20 on CBS.com for Victor and encourage everyone else to do the same. Hopefully, all realize that Simon and Dawg’ s poll here is not the poll that counts. Don’t understand why James is leading here, but it doesn’t matter.

THE PLAN

I think Nicole, James & Paulie all were going to team together even b4 they entered the house. I believe they all agreed to get into a showmance to ensure they would get their votes as well. Just to obvious ….probably all 3 getting a pre planned cut of which ever one wins. 5 votes plus the actual winner = 6

Anonymous

Paul for the win!!

Lesser of 3 evils

At this point, I’m not opposing Paul winning it all, though he’s not my very top choice.

Better him than Nicole, who slept and whined (she made my life highly miserable on live feeds, not frigging kidding) her way to the top.

Better him than James, who did nothing but chased a skirt all Summer long, and had the support of that CBS big shot (whom we ALL know WHO.)

:: sigh ::

Lying Hillary Left Our Men to Die at Benghazi

Paul has three wins in a row. One more and this game is all his.

jury vote scenarios - james wins the season

ive had a look at the scenarios and james will win the season…

james will throw part 2 of the hoh

part 3 will be paul v ssnakecole

both paul and ssnakecole will take james to final 2 thinking they will beat him on gameplay, but he will actually beat them both on likeability and least amount of bitterness against him compared to them

if paul evicts ssnakecole…for a final 2 of paul v james:
james wins 6-3 or 8-1…meech, natalie, da, bridgette plus more likely james gets nicorey 2 votes on factors of bitterness against paul and likeability of james…votes of paulie, z could go either way…vic votes for paul

if ssnakecole evicts paul…for a final 2 of ssnakecole v james:
james wins 6-3…meech, natalie, da, bridgette plus more likely james gets paul/vic 2 votes on factors of bitterness against ssnakecole and likeability of james…paulie, z, corey will vote for ssnakecole

james social game, only being nominated once, throwing comps all season for no bitterness against him(his only comp win? winning hoh to get rid of the biggest threat of the game pre jury…frank the tank) and likeability will win james the season

JJtoWin

I can’t see James winning in either scenario unless it’s a very bitter jury…which it might be. I don’t think most of the jury will (should?) consider James’ game the “best”, because it simply wasn’t. They can’t help but respect Paul’s game based on pure work ethic, right? (I hope.) Plus – and it’s a big plus – Paul has Victor’s popularity with the jury on his side.

Anonymous

some might argue that being nominated 6 times is not great compared to someone only nominated once

to purposely throw comps all season and avoid the block to the extent james has is fairly remarkable for a returning player and physical guy like james who has a decent social game

it is a bitter jury and thats why james will win over either of them – and the fact that both will take james means whoever wins the final hoh will have not one more, but 2 more(a pair) bitter against them as both paul and nicole are part of pairs, with the other half currently in jury

with michelle having worked with nat and james, and michelle/nat close with bridgette and also da, i see that as a voting block, i just dont see them voting against james…all those girls dont like nicole very much and they all know that paul called meech a c-nt, which im sure wont sit well with them based on their dislike of how paulie treats and disrespects women

for a majority of this jury – i dont see nicole or pauls play being impressive enough to counter bitterness against them and likeability/social game of james

jury vote scenarios - james wins the season

i forgot to add paul has had alot of luck with twists – vic coming back twice greatly benefited him

im not saying i want james to win, i just think he will based on what i think is likely in the last 2 comps, who is taking who to final 2 and what the jury have vocalized plus their relationships with the 3 in relation to their possible voting mentality

just so long as ssnakecole doesnt win im good

so a paul or james win i will enjoy

Vote Victor for America’s Favorite Houseguest!

wisdom

This my first time voting for AFP and i just voted 20times for Victor. ..will vote again tomorrow! I hate that James thinks he can just come and play his way into winning AFP. I thought you were supposed to just be yourself, play the game and let America decide?

I did, too, vote for Vic.. BUT..

Big BUT.. It doesn’t matter how we public naively vote for the AFP..

Big brother US will RIG n pick WHOEVER THEY want to win.

Hey, what can I say? They call the shots, what to do, either than being frustrated???

Sybill

All 16 of my personalities voted 20 times for Victor.

2SenseWorth

It would be helpful if Simon/Dawg would put HUGE instructions on the poll here for AFP that it is NOT the official place to cast your vote. And a really HUGE direction on where to go vote so it will count!! (maybe)

Anonymous

Unless your voting for James then you only need to vote here.

Yet Another Hillary Lie

Is it correct that the top two can’t win AFP? If this is true even if all the James fans vote for him Victor could still win.

Kate

Not true, unless they have changed the rules. In season 11, Jordan won the whole thing as well as AFP

Yikes!

Hi Simon! First of all a huge THANK YOU to both you & Dawg for all the hard work. I love this site! You guys do a great job!

Re: AFP & the F2………On bigbrother.wikia.com………..”Originally, the prize was only limited to jury members in Big Brother All Stars, Big Brother 9, and Big Brother 10, where it was called the America’s Choice Jury Prize. Since Big Brother 11, ALL HOUSEGUESTS ARE ELIGIBLE TO WIN THE PRIZE and Fan Favorite Award was been changed to America’s Favorite Houseguest. The winner of the award receives $25,000.”

Looks like they changed the rules in BB11………….

No she didn’t. She won the 500k yes, but Jeff won AFP.

20 votes cast for Paulie for America’s Favorite.

When will the poll be put up here for AFP.
And can it be setup so we can vote once every day?

Thank you Simon and Dawg.

Playthrdamngame

You do know that this is just a straw poll here, right? The official AFP voting is through CBS, so go THERE to vote multiple times (for Vic)!

Anonymous

I like the polls on this site because it gives me insight on whether or not cbs is rigging things. People said care packages were rigged, but that’s not true considering they ALWAYS reflected these polls, which cbs doesn’t control.

CATHY

GO TO CBS.COM and vote Victor, you can vote up tp 20 per day until Monday! so Vote! Vote! Vote! Victor!!

Way to go Paul !!!!!! I really hope he can make it to final 2 !!!!!!!

Go paul

Big Jim

Paul looking like a champion. Don’t know why he is so gung ho about taking Nicole. She will 100% take James and vice versa

Playthrdamngame

I think at this point, it won’t matter who Paul takes, he’s winning! 3 comp wins in a row can’t be denied!

Newbie

I’m a little confused. OK, Paul won HOH I get that. Now its James and Nicole on some mental comp? Who ever wins that mental comp, what happens then??? So, what benefit is it that Paul won this HOH? Thanks

Anonymous

James and Nicole will now face off in the next HOH, that winner (Nicole) faces paul finale night to be final HOH and determine who makes it to F2.

Winterfell

Hard to say what he’s thinking. I think he wants to take Nicole. He isn’t familiar with game to really understand that in the end, many jurors get over their bitterness and vote based on merit rather than emotions. Like Day, who really liked Nicole on a personal level at first but then let her own paranoia get to her….last night she sounded proud of Nicole for stepping up. Even HGs who know the game get caught up in worrying about bitter jury. He’s also emotional and rigidly self-righteous enough to mess up his own chances by refusing to give the 50K to someone that he feels is undeserving. It’s much easier to be that way when you’re already wealthy.

Guy From Canada

Jury not bitter? Dan G from bbus 14………that’s all I can say……And you think this jury isn’t emotional and would make a rational, non bitter decision? Sorry, but no this jury is super emotional and would vote for personal reasons over game reasons this year.

Winterfell

Oh look, confirmation bias at play. Always can count on that here.

paul's nose

I believe paul knows this game as well as Nicole and has played dumb this season. In doing so, he will be able to tell when some1 is blatantly lying to his face. just a thought!

Anonymous

Who does Paul actually want to take to final 2?
Hasn’t he made F2 deals with both Nicole and James?

Another Anonymous

Yes, all three of them are making final 2 deals with each other person in the house, which they should at this point. These “promises” mean nothing.

Franks fumes

Dont expect Snakole to keep her word PaulSSsssssssssssssssssss!

Dax!

Nicole earnestly talking up final two to both James and Paul is just weird, considering she screwed over both of them. Does she think they’re so stupid?

Anonymous

Don’t expect Nicole or James to keep there word because they’ve both proven they’re untrustworthy.
If they take anyone they would take each other because its best for their game play
James isn’t winning hoh anyways.

But Paul has in the past been very truthful.
Maybe from Paul and James last conversation he would take Nicole?

Ummm???

Paul has told both Nichole and James he’s taking them to final two. Wouldn’t that mean that he has lied to one of them?

Joei

I want James and Paul final 2. Kick Nicole’s lying snake butt out.

Seriously?!

Everyone lies in this game so get off Nicole’s back! She’s playing Big Brother just like Vic and Paul and they lied too. You have to lie and manipulate. Nicole and Paul deserve to be in the final 2.

bbfan1

I agree. Give Nicole a break. She is extremely smart and has played a good game. I hope she wins.

Anonymous

I don’t think it’s the lying itself so much as acting like we’re SUCH good friends, talking crap about other houseguests behind their backs because again, we’re SUCH good friends. We have an alliance! And acting all naive and nervous and sweet when she backstabs, and calling out everyone else for lying and playing dirty. (How many times have we had to listen to her say, “He plays DIRRRRRTY!”?) Yeah, it’s a game and it’s gotten her this far, so good on her. But it’s still crappy to have to watch.

Reality Check

James threw the HOH to Paul. Well James, if you actually did that, you are beyond stupid.

The reality is, you just suck period.

Hey if Paul wins, I’m happy for him. I know he will use this money for his clothing business. An investment for his future.

Playthrdamngame

I don’t think he threw it, I think he genuinely sucked! But Nicole will play this out with Paul to make him even more sour about James.

jamescoveringtracks

does anybody ever notice that the majority of the time James “throws” a completion, it isn’t till after the competition is over that he tells someone he threw it. Same with how the DR’s are taped after the comp so then gives him a chance to say he threw it rather then just saying he sucks at comps!

James' pranks are irritating

And the one time James very clearly threw a comp, it was for a deal with Nicole which resulted in his showmance going home. Good job, James. And you wonder why NatNat was bitter?

Yikes!

No……..Paul’s gotta buy mama a new Bentley………..$303,000,,,,,,,,,

PAUL

Out of all the hg’s, I think Paul and Vic would have used the majority of the money wisely. Paul knows business deals and Vic had degree in finance . They are both intelligent men.

Anonymous

James has already said he would put the bulk of it in a trust fund for his daughter.

Anonymous

Personally I don’t care if they’re buying 5000 goats with the money. I just want the player that played the best game to win.

Roll Tide

Derrick coached James to play the game like he did. Lay low, be friends with everyone, don’t win comps and make suttle suggestions who should go home. James has done a good job but it time to not throw this next comp to Nicole. Time to try to win.
The snake has two HOH wins that were given to her. The team win when she was the captain and begged her team for the win. The next was the wall comp with James when she begged for a long time. She needed to get a letter from her mommy, just could not go for another minute without a letter from Mommy. James is far too kind. He should have been like Victor, he told Nat if she wanted to win, then win.
Paul has the most vile mouth ever. Calling the girls the C word is unforgivable. He talks so bad about James to Nicole, but does not so bad about Sssssnake. She will beat his arrogant behind.

Life lessons

I am hoping James gets his act together. He has been acting like he doesn’t have any active brain cells working…………… Come on James wake up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Franks fumes

James only has 3 brain cells and he has to rub 2 of them together to spark one of them to work…….ahhh he’s dumb!

FTW

Rooting for Paul all the way to Final 2. Your boy deserves it!!!!!!! And of course Vic for AFP!

WTF

Why is James polling so well for AFP???

CATHY

Don’t get how the hell James is doing so well, he did terrible in this game and you all want to reward him, I think not, Victor deserves to win AFP!

South City for Paul

CBS has already confirmed James is AFP again ugh! You can vote now for Victor 20 times a day to get the $25,000 reward this is only until Saturday 19th

NoName

The 19th is Monday not Saturday but voting is only open until 9:59 PST on Monday.

Duh

he’s the cbs ceo’s fav

Franks fumes

Because he mentioned Rich Meehan his personal friend and happens to be CEO of cbs…….James has had a really rough road to the end……Paul said he hit every branch on his path to the end……..James cruised on a really comfy bike down beachfront property with chicks in bikinis waving on either side of him……PAUL DESERVES THE WIN!

The Truth

Rich Meehan is executive producer and founder of Fly on the Wall Entertainment — which produces Big Brother. Grodner is co-CEO of that group. Of course James knows Meehan. Most vets wpuld.

From what I can tell, there is no affiliation with CBS Corp except that CBS runs Big Brother. They have other crappy shows that are on other networks.

Les Moonves — hubby of Julie Chen — is CEO of CBS.

Reality Check

How does James get 33% for AFP???

Really?

Even though this is final 3, remember James is going to vote what the house wants.

Because

In my eyes this season didnt have any worthy player, best were Paul and Nicole and they both are at best average, Nicole being too scared and very paranoid.Paul making many mistakes and everytime he smells power he gets comfy and forgets that it s a game for 500k. So in my mind no player is worthy of money so I m just voting for a person I like the most as a human being…

Franks fumes

Forgot how creepy Paulie was with his squirrely haircut and little legs dangling off the couch LOL……….Bridgette looked at him and said you make my skin boil?……I think she meant crawl! So funny all the production people scrambling to get out of the camera sight line when it followed psycho Da……….Paul has 2 win 3rd HOH come on Paul!!!!

Dr. Seuss

Maybe Bridgette has boils. On her skin. And he makes them erupt. Like if she suffered from corns she would say, “You make my toes corn.”

bbfan1

I don’t think DaVonne’s behavior was funny. It was brazen, threatening and not acceptable. There was absolutely no reason for her to stand over Paulie , fist clenched , one inch from his face. If Z wants to be friends with Paulie, so what, free country! It’s not DaVonne’s business. This is the first time I’ve seen this behavior in the Jury house where security had to step in. Paulie is not an ogre. ps: to Bridgette…if it weren’t for Paulie who kept you in the game after Frank left, you would have been out. And how did you repay him, by planting crap in the girls’ ears to get him out. Also, he didn’t use the veto on Z because of Paul.

Anonymous

I think Da’s reaction was deeper then her hatred of Paulie. Don’t get me wrong, she hates Paulie and rightfully so. Most people put on a front in the BB house, often as part of their strategy. You see them act one way in the house and then when they get evicted, they go back to being themselves. Ever since Paulie went to the jury house he has continued this arrogant, macho, sexist attitude which to me speaks volume about his true character. I have a feeling that Da has had to deal with a**holes like Paulie a lot in life. I think she is more hurt by Z and the fact that Z has no self respect and keeps running back to Paulie. She was angry with Paulie but then got real emotional with Z. I totally get it. Da and Z always had a connection in the house so there is nothing more frustrating then seeing someone you care about be so stupid as to go back to a guy who has been so blatantly manipulative and cruel to that person. I don’t even know Z and want to slap some sense in to her. I hope she gets some help after the show or at least I hope her family or friends can help her see that she deserves more than a douchebag like Paulie.

I thought it was interesting that Michelle was the one to make the comment about Paulie not taking Z off the block and Paulie reacted to Da’s response of agreement. While he was accusing all of them for shutting out Z in the jury house, he was directing it to Da. I wish Da hadn’t reacted the way she did when he mentioned her daughter, not because i think she was out of line but because she feed into Paulie’s ego. He can’t handle it when a woman remains calm and can stand up to him and not be intimidated, so he will go to any depths to push a woman’s buttons to send them over the edge. (he did it constantly with Z and tried it with Natalie) The smirk and the clapping was proof enough that he accomplished what he wanted when she stood up and lost it. I just hope the backlash of his behavior is so severe that he gets a big wake up call in reality.

Bozo

Paulie was disgusting. He’s completely ruined his reputation in my opinion. A real man doesn’t do that to a woman. If he had any emotional IQ he would have stopped the argument. He scares me.

Paulie is just like Chinese foods in Arizona..

SUCK BALLS!!!

Well, just saying 😛

James is pressing hard on my last nerve. All proud of his ” do nothing ” strategy.

JJtoWin

I am the choir that you are preaching to. He says he’s “playing Derrick’s game” Really?? I know a lot of posters didn’t like Derrick’s win (I was pulling for him the whole season), but Derrick WORKED 24/7 on that win. James (and yes, I can see some good points of James’ game, i.e., not trash-talking) has done almost ZERO of the thinking and strategizing for his current position. I’m one of those folks who is unwilling to give kudos for minimal effort, which is why I’m now pulling for Paul over James or Nicole. And hope the jury agrees.

Ya boiiiii knows

Rooting for Paul 😉

Good lord quit saying vote for Victor for AFP!!! Never Cared!!!!!!!!

Anonymous

Vote victor! Make 20 accounts and take over the cat lady votes!!

Vic for AFP!!!

Horseshoes

Agree!!! I don’t personally have a favorite anymore. No ones played a GREAT game, but seeing all these “vote victor, he DESERVES it” is making me vote James everyday in spite. How does Vic DESERVE it? Because he was lucky to have 2 buybacks and won some comps but none when they mattered? So Beast mode cowboy or Frankie Grande should have won over Donny, correct? It’s americas FAVORITE player. If Vic doesn’t win, then he doesn’t deserve it.
If your favorite was Victor, vote for Victor. Don’t force your views on other people. Or get but hurt when James is leading the poll saying “he hasn’t done squat in the game”, he also hasn’t been evicted every time he sat on the block.
You’re voting to give someone 25k, not run the country. None of this will matter in month so just chill people.

People are delusional

It’s sad that people think Paul played a better game than Nicole. She literally flew under the radar for weeks and then killed it final7 on.

What’s better having to win comps or not having to win comps?

If Nicole was a guy people would be screaming she deserves to win.

I like Paul but if he takes Nicole to final 2 she’s winning because it’s just solidifies how good Nicole’s game was. She manipulated so many people to get to the end and convinced them not to target her.

Let’s face Paul or Nicole would both be good winners but James is there because they got out Natalie and the no one in power wanted couples.

If Nicole is on the Final2 regardless of who’s she’s sitting next to she’s probably gonna win.

If Paul wins he need to take James.

If Nicole wins she is taking James.

If James wins whoever he takes win.

People just don’t like Nicole and say she hasn’t played the game but y’all were calling her a rat per-jury.

She was never nominated until day 91 practically by default. She won two HoH and Two Vetos and if she wins Final HOH she’ll tie Janelle and Rachel for most HOH comp wins with 6.

Franks fumes

If the snakeskin shoe fits…….wear it…..SSSSSsssssssssssssss!

Come on now

if it came down to Paul or Nicole, Paul should win. Paul has never played this game before and yet he played a radical game. He took a lot of chances and played a risky game by volunteering to put himself up on the Block. Nicole didn’t have the courage to take such chances and when it comes to competitions Paul has an edge over Nicole. Also even though he was annoying at times he played a better social game. My vote would go to Paul and for AFP I’m rooting for Victor all the way!

People are delusional

Nicole was never nominated until yesterday! How is that not impressive?!? Again she made it the 2ed furthest while the Golden Power Of Veto was in play. (Season 4-)

Let’s not forget that the house was 5 vs 3 at one point and then 5 vs 2 and Nicole flipped the script on Paul and Victor.

Unlike Paul she literally ran the house from the shadows since Paulie left and she amped up her game. Unlike Paul who made himself a huge target out the gate Nicole never made waves and waited for her chance. Why make unnecessary waves? It doesn’t make any sense. Why win if you don’t have to.

Nicole isn’t like because she a woman. I never hear people calling Corey a whore. She’s never giving credit for her game.

She’s blasted for getting girls out and called anti female for when guys go after girls (season 16) it’s ok.

Paul deserves to win if he evicts Nicole on day 99. If he takes her it just proves her game work, from the shadows she brought to final2.

It sounds like she’ll have Corey (100%), Da’Vonne, Natalie, Paulie (100%)and Zakiyah if she against Paul.

Paul played a good game but it’s not a strong as Nicole it’s just more popular. Nicole’s isn’t because it’s not in your face but behind your back, you don’t notice it until someone tells you about it.

Anonymous

No way. People hated paul. It took a while for me to be able to cheer him on. I didn’t like his attitude towards the women period. The fact is once he turned up his social game and stopped acting like such a complete tool people didn’t mind him. Nicole was never a threat because all she did was lay in bed with corey. Big competitors made themselves targets. People have called her out on her crap a lot, but no one really cared to take her out. It happens every year. Floaters make it to the end because everyone says I’ll take them out later. For once it’d be nice to see all Competitions at the end instead of taking eachother out early. Also, she’s called anti-female because not only did she want to be the only woman in the house with the men, she ratted out the girls alliance once she got the chance. Paul doesn’t “deserve to win” because he made a bold move by getting snacole out. He deserves to win because he played a better game. The only reason why I feel like she’ll beat him is because production worked so hard to get her to F2 no way will they not make it happen, and the jury is always bitter in the end. Which is why unfortunately the floater usually wins. The only person who still really hates her is michelle, but she hates paul too so who knows.

Are u KIDDING me???!!!???

Playing the weak gender card???

I’m a female, and Nicole has gotten on my nerves since eons ago.

She WAS a weak player then, AND she IS a weak player now.

She can’t do squat to save her life, less sleeping around in bed all day long with her equally annoying partner in crime.

Do u watch live feeds?????

Actually

Actually if she’s weak she got both Victor and Michelle out and made it the second longest without getting nominated.

Tons of people were non threats in past seasons (Joe and Jenn from 14, Victoria from 16 and Adam from 13) but for some reason non threats in the past were nominated over and over again.

She’s won 5 HOHs that’s the 2ed most ever!

Ummm

She has NOT won 5 hoh’s? What in the world are you even talking about? And if you’re combining BOTH seasons then that doesn’t even come close to counting. Records go by each season. Which she’s not even close to the female record holders in that case. Look up Rachael, janelle, Vanessa, they all blew her out of the water. Get real.

Anonymous

She didn’t “literally Win” (her favorite word) both HOH’s were given to her.

Anonymous

oh Corey is totally a whore. that was the case way before he and nicole ever did anything. Feel better?

Hmm...

Production protected her during Natalie’s HoH. Meech really wanted her up even if she wasn’t the target. Natalie wanted to break up COrey and Nicole until she came out of the DR and told James production wanted them to work with them. That’s when Paul and Victor, who she trusted more than Corey and Nicole, became the defacto targets. Corey’s behavior in the veto comp when James and Natalie were on the block is another way production protected her by keeping James who has protected Nicole the entire game. She has had a lot of unfair help.

LizzieB

There were others times early on when someone would mention putting up Nicole & James would deflect it

anonymous

AND James if she’s up against Paul.

Anonymous

Something I was thinking about last night, remember how Paul was the next target for everyone in the house? They got out Jozea, Vic and then Paul was supposed to be next.

But Paul did a phenomenal job of laying low, getting in on the good side and getting the target off his back.

He really has played a great game. Better than Nicole for sure. She’s never been a target and the showmances were shielded this season because there were targets galore in this cast. Nicole has never once really had to sweat. Never truly had to deflect the target off her back. Where as Paul has actually been the number one target and was left in the house with no one for a long time. Now especially in the final run he’s winning these comps and took control of his game as much as one can at this point.

Kudos to Paul.

Bozo

So true. Paul less familiar with the game went in with no strategy. His naivety got him in trouble a few times. He made up his strategy as things went along. He saved his butt numerous times. He was an underdog and I think it’s good for an underdog to win.

His dr session was very emotional and telling that in life this means more to him than imaginable and I think he’ll be humble and appreciative where Nic will gloat and James will say something dumb like “that’s how it’s done.”

No, you're the delusional one

She only won one of her HOH’s because it was given to her. That veto she won when Michele left I think Paul threw to her. He’s thrown comps when he felt safe. If you watched the epissed he got more answers right faster then they did. He just didn’t care about winning it. She’s not as good as you think. Lol it surely is easy when you barely have any competition left. Where were all these veto and hoh wins during her season? Where were they in the beginning when you had Frank and Paulie in the house? You’re way off when you say a man would be congratulated for playing the way she did….. Andy played a very similar game. He was also a snake and I don’t know many people that like him. She certainly didn’t play derrick game, but sure looks like she tried. No one liked him either. No one’s ever liked the snakes of the house. Honestly I wouldn’t even mind her that much if she didn’t sleep the whole season. She literally did nothing, and the comps her and her boy toy won were suited for them. Why was that slip and slide comp so easy? Why not have it when Vic could play too? Not only was it not even slippery, but the bowls weren’t as big as usual and they got to use a bigger scoop if they tried for it. I think if production didn’t make it so obvious who they want in F2 it probably wouldn’t be so bad. I mean just watching the show should show you that. Since when was corey okay with nicole being on his mag cover? Lol alp I remember was him whining about it for days.

nicole

both of her hoh’s were given to her! PERIOD

I MISS CALEB...

After amber went home Caleb was so adorable n entertaining. I wish caleb and vic would team up on a bb or survivor if they can’t team up vic N paul…. they may not like the heat survivor provides LOL

People are delusional

Well who got Victor outs twice? Nicole

Who got Michelle out? Nicole

Who convinced people to go after Da? Nicole

Who wasn’t nominated for 91 days? Nicole

Who convinced someone to give her HoH and the got their alliance member votes out? Nicole

Again she’s playing a great game she’s playing from the shadows and nobody noticed. There’s a reason tough competitors leave like Frank and Paulie because their social game sucked. Non-threat Nicole skated by while bigger fish who had made themselves bigger fish were fried. I mean Da’Vonne hadn’t won a competition both time she was in the BB house but they got her out. Also I wouldn’t really call her a floater because 1) she had a solid alliance of 3 with Corey and Paulie until 8 and the house flipped on them and she survived and still wasn’t nominated.

You can blame this on Vets vs newbies but they’re not stupid. Nicole has lied multiple times and need called out more than anyone but she still convinced people to trust her. Frank and James lasted just as long as her in their last season but people were are on the them.

People just don’t like her gameplay so they say it sucks. If Paul takes her he’ll have fallen for it again and she will win. If she wins and cuts Paul she’ll have gotten rid of a lot of big players and will probably win unless the jury is bitter. Which means James wins.

Nicole fans specifically are the delusional ones.

LOL at the beginning of your comment. Nicole didn’t convince anyone to get anyone out. Day once again MADE herself a target. She just couldn’t keep her mouth shut yet again. That is why people wanted Day out. Paul didn’t really care as he said she wasn’t coming for him, but PAULIE did. Which Victor eviction are you talking about? If it is his most recent (which it should be) then that’s irrelevant. Yes, she certainly was behind that…. but it is a hell of a lot easier when there are only 5 people in the house. I mean, she would’ve been really dumb to not take a shot at Vic/Paul. You’re giving her way too much credit. The reason why Derrick didn’t get nominated was because he worked to make sure. Everytime someone won HOH he was up there being their best buddy and unknowingly to them, convincing them to nominate anyone but him. Nicole didn’t get nominated because of the team twist, (tiffany made herself a target) and she hid behind Paulie and Corey the whole time. She did not sit in the shadows and call the shots. Paulie ran the house and she was on his side… As much as I hate giving him this much credit I have to. He called the shots for most of the game, he determined who should go. Until Paul and a few others got sick of it and got him out. After that everyone else made themselves targets. If you want to be so hung up on her not being nominated… why not James? He wasn’t ever nominated either until recently. That was because it was down to 3 couples and one HAD to be nominated just like she HAD to be nominated. The only reason James and Nat were on the block was because production intervened and convinced her to put vic/paul on the block. Had she not done that and it were Nat/James in this situation with Corey as the extra would you still feel the same way about James? I doubt it. Because JUST like Nicole he didn’t do anything this season. He chased a showmance partner who isn’t all that into him. Her not being nominated was not impressive at all. If production had never intervened, she didn’t have corey or paulie to hide behind, and somehow still managed to not be nominated then sure, I would agree.

Anonymous

Nicole didn’t get Victor out this last time, Corey did. In fact, after she won the veto she started questioning if they should get Paul out because she was sure the rest of the comps would be mental and knew Paul would be harder to beat. However, Corey got pissed off that she was considering keeping Vic and so she gave up on it. Worrying about making her precious Corey mad influenced her game play. And now, Corey is out and she keeps losing to Paul!

Ummm

Uh no Frank is the one that convinced everyone to get day out. Lol. I didn’t even read the rest of your post because you’re delusional! Nicole got out Michelle. Huge move *rolling my eyes*. Looks like she should’ve taken out Paul instead. Lol

Bozanna

No, Nicole got Christine out, in the embodiment of Michelle. lol It was personal. Don’t roll your eyes too much they might get stuck.

As usual, some people are blurring the lines between Corey and Nicole’s independent activities.

Truth

The big difference between Nicole and Paul’s game is that Paul has had to play hard every week because his back was against the wall, and Nicole only started playing from Final 7 onward. Paul has had the hardest road to play out of anyone in the house this season. From the first week, he was in the minority alliance, had his top 2 alliance members voted out (Jozea and Victor). From that point, he had to completely re-strategize and realign with different people. He went from being public enemy number 1 in Week 2, to a complete non-threat by Week 4. He then managed to align himself with Paulie, the person calling the shots at the beginning, and when the time was right, he turned on him and helped flip the house and evict Zakiyah (with help from Natalie and Bridgette) and then evict Paulie. He and Victor for 2 weeks had complete control of the game before they started to get backstabbed every week by Jatalie and Nicorey. Paul won a crucial POV when his life was on the line in Final 7, and then made the Final 4 alliance with Nicorey in order to save himself and Victor the following week (forcing Nicorey to backstab their own prior alliance with Jatalie). And then, after losing his number one ally once again (Victor), Paul won an HOH and a POV when he needed to the most. If he goes on to win this final HOH, he’ll have put the cherry on top of what has been masterful gameplay. Has he made mistakes? Of course, but he’s won competitions when he’s needed to, he’s made deals with the right people when he’s needed to and he’s managed to survive despite being a target since day 1.

Yes it is

Love your summary of Pauls game play!!!! So true!!!! I get loyalty isn’t a reason to win… but he absolutely was loyal to everyone he sided with until they gave him a reason not to be. He was loyal in the beginning to the newbies that wanted the vets out until he realized that ship sank and had to play nice. Then became friends with Paulie, when he realized there was no friendship with PP he jumped ship (he needed to). He even said he finally realized Paulie was doing what was best for Paulie not for PP. So he got on the train of let’s get Paulie out. He pretty much teamed back up with Vic when he won his way back in the first time. He convinced him to lay low for a little while. Ugh now all he needs to do is make it to F2 and say pretty much what you said to the jury. He also needs to downplay the game strategy of whoever he is up against.

Anonymous

lol Bridge/Nat/James convinced Paul that he was playing all sides and had to go….it wasn’t because of Paul that Paulie went..good try tho…being a target the entire game and having to fight every step of the way, is not good strategy…you want NOT to be a target…

Truth

Actually, it was because of Paul that Paulie got evicted. If you remember correctly, Victor was convinced by Paul to go against Paulie that week and nominate him along with Corey. Victor was on the fence about that idea before Paul convinced him to do it. Yes Bridgette and Natalie (not James) were the ones that brought certain information to Paul’s attention, but Paul knew what to do with that information and went against Paulie the first chance he got.

Anonymous

Of course no one comes into this game with the strategy of being a big target but if you do become a big target it most likely means that you ARE playing the game. And the determining factor on how well you play the game is how often you save yourself when you have a target on your back. Dan Gheesling was a perfect example of this kind of player and I think Paul is too. If Nicole had had more influence in the getting people put on the block and getting them evicted while remaining under the radar and staying off the block then I would give her more credit for her gameplay. However, Frank and Paulie were running the house in the first half. They were doing the talking, convincing, and manipulating to get out their targets, not Nicole. She went along with what everyone else in her alliance wanted. She claims she didn’t do anything to all of the girls but why did they all dislike her and not trust her? She was obviously doing something. If hiding behind all of the competitive guys, losing comps, and pissing off all of the girls was her strategy, then she succeeded but it was stupid gameplay in my opinion and not worthy of winning $500k. I have more respect for Paul’s gameplay simply because he was targeted since week 2, put on the block many times and STILL remains in the house. He knew when to take a shot at the big threats and was very influential in getting many of the threats out, mostly without getting blood on his hands I might add. Everyone talks about what a great player Derrick was. Yes, he stayed under the radar and kept the target off his back but he also controlled the house without people realizing it. Nicole has not, nor ever controlled the house. The only thing she ever controlled was James and that doesn’t say much.

Michelle

public opinion/personal opinion don’t matter…

both have played the game in their unique way… one was forced to adjust his style (successfully, i might add) many times throughout the entire game, win comps throughout the entire game, volunteer to be a pawn throughout the entire game, significantly improve his social game throughout the entire game, align and realign with the right people throughout the entire game and just have a colorful, interesting, funny, intelligent, fast-adapting personality throughout the game. (THIS IS THE ONLY TRUE WINNER.)

Whereas the other… layed in bed while nasally and verbally outright predicting her win or demise while also professing her innocence about any move she was directly or indirectly involved with throughout the entire game. I’ll give credit where credit is due. She did beast the last 2-3 comps… but those first 2 HOH’s were not her’s to claim. And only a certain type of bb fan (the cat lady type) would give her credit for them. She doesn’t own her game and credits Derrick with it all… LAME. (THIS IS NOT A WINNER IN MY BOOK.)

There has been bitter juries who still vote based on who they believe played the “best” game. There’s several that come to mind… but one in particular is the F2 in season 8. Aside from the fact that those 2 were father/daughter, their stats (I include personality, likeability, strategy and comp wins) are comparable to a F2 of Paul and Nicole. You have a dominant, somewhat abrasive person with an impressive list of accomplishments throughout the game — Dick is my favorite player of all time, but he was an asshole and the jury hated him. HE STILL WON. Paul is a light version of ED. And Nicole… (she does NOT compare to Danielle Donato in any sense) is somewhat liked by the jury and played under the radar until the end.

WILL THE JURY AWARD A TRUE PLAYER (like Paul or like Dick) or WILL THEY AWARD A RAT-LIKE OR FLOATER-LIKE PLAYER (like Nicole, Andy or Jordan)? Time will tell. But IMO, they only TRUE WINNER is Paul.

Well Michelle

I like how you say Dick is one of the best winners when in fact he had numerous advantages throughout the game that no one had. 1) His Daughter, Danielle played a much better game than Dick in S8 and is one of the best competitors ever. 2) The twist that season literally kept him in the game time after time. Without those two advantages Dick is evicted. He’s self righteous and thinks he played the best game ever.

You can only play with the cards your giving, Jordan or Andy can’t be said they played a terrible game when they won. Again there’s more than one way to win and just because it’s not in your face doesn’t mean it’s lackluster.

Michelle

lol!

1. I DID NOT SAY DICK IS ONE OF THE BEST WINNERS. I clearly said he was MY favorite winner of all time. That is it. Nothing more, nothing less. So your argument as to advantages, Danielle being the better candidate, twists or his self-righteousness is complete bunk BECAUSE IT IS ONLY MY OPINION and i was not stating it as general fact.

2. And your second paragraph… AGAIN, you take my words out of context. I NEVER SAID ANDY OR JORDAN PLAYED A TERRIBLE GAME (i am a Jordan fan because she is sweet.) I simply described Andy’s and Jordan’s style of play— i didn’t make these “Rat” “Floater” titles up and i sure am not the 1st person to say that that is how Andy or Jordan played in their winning seasons… sorry that I seem to offend you. My point in the long run is that it depends on each individual juror and also that sometimes a “bitter” juror does award the player with the most grueling game and not the one who played like a floater.

3. AGAIN, TO SUMMARIZE… IT IS MY OPINION and i hope the jury awards the more “in your face”, better player.

Cat Lady

I agree with everything you said except for the part about cat ladies.

Dog lady

Cat ladies make my skin boil.

Paul’s starting to grow on me. That he’s up against two vets (albeit smarmy vets) and has been on the block so many times and escaped is pretty impressive. He’s winning comps now. Although he hid behind Vic as his meat shield as long as he could. He let Vic do the dirty work. That worked for him. He will win if he’s final two.

Nicole says she worked so hard to get this far. Uhhmmm no, I only saw her vertical the last couple of weeks. Before that she was horizontally engrossed in her boreymance. When he left, she promptly forgot him and eagerly imbibed some Big Bro champagne. I really want to see a woman win, but not that bad.

I don’t think James played a strong enough game for jurors to overlook that he’s a vet. Nicole played a stronger game. So Paul and Nicole will break their final two deal and bring James instead.

People are delusional

So, Paul played a good game by escaping being nominated 6 times and Nicole played a bad game by not getting nominated for 91 day?

Please explain.

Anonymous

She slept with corey half the season got called out for her lies anD was bad at it, just because the house is full of rookies who put her on the back burner doesn’t mean at that time she played well, she is playing better now which but look who she is up against

Sam

And….can we talk about how James has worked/voted to take Nicole to the end because of the BRIBE? (pre-game alliances aside.) She offered him (and Corey) a large amount of money if she won. It was on the live feed, in all the spoilers, and got called out by production. Yet, she’s reminded him about “their deal” since then. James would never take Paul to the end.
Is that good game playing? Or is it cheating?

And since you’re defending her opinion of women – was lying under the comforter with Corey – laughing her butt off – while Paulie said *terrible* things to Natalie and then Meech game playing? Or does it make her as awful as Paulie?

Do you remember how any time she wasn’t in the bed or hammock with Corey, she would be sitting with Z for HOURS and talk about Corey? And say how she came to play but found a guy again? SHE said that she wasn’t playing the game! Now, all of a sudden, she’s saying she was – cause she knows you have to say that stuff to win.
Was that the excellent game play you’re referring to? Or, was it sitting around mooning over a guy and then pretending it was strategy?

I like Nicole – she seems like a nice, sweet person. But I don’t think she deserves to win. And James “Floating is a strategy now” (talk about delusional) doesn’t either.

Sorry. Not impressed.

You’re putting too much into nominations. Actually being nominated shows you ARE a threat and managed to get the target off your back while in the block. That takes a lot more skill.

And on this season, not being nominated isn’t as big of a deal because of the huge targets that were in this season. Not to mention the fact that Vic took up two of those weeks being evicted lol. Without that twist, who knows what would of happened.

There is a certain Dr that woul disagree with you……

Yeah but there’s only 1 dr. Will. The goat. I’m pretty sure he would be offended you’re using him as an example when discussing Nicole’s lack of being nominated.

skeptical onlooker

I am JUST bamboozled!!! I’m caught between been so satisfied that Paul won the first part..and could win the final part.
But..FFS!! I hope he’s fooling Nic and planning on taking James.
Otherwise….Paul is losing..after working so hard.
In the next few days…I hope to G-D Paul sees the light.
I can’t stand to see Nic or James win….
At least Coreeeeeeee is out. He just creeps me out.

Friendship

the winner of the 2nd hoh chooses who they want in the final, paul cant pick

not true

the 2 winners of the hoh will face off against each other for the final hoh anf that person will choose who to take.. right now its paul verses ???

Anonymous

Huh?? No. That’s why this is a 3 part hoh. Whoever wins round 2 will then face Paul in round 3. The winner out of that will decide who to take to the final

Hmm...

Whoever wins 2 of the final 3 HoH comps becomes the final HoH. The other two are technically on the block then. Since it’s a 0-0 tie, as no one votes, the HoH breaks the tie. I kind of wish they’d let them all play in the second comp though.

Anonymous

Um Friendship, have you actually ever watched this show? Why would there be a 3-part HOH if the winner of the 1st part doesn’t have a chance to advance to possibly pick final 2?

Amy

Looks like Paul is very serious about taking Nicole, but that could be a big mistake.

Danton

Paul’s stated reasoning is sound. James has more sure votes on jury than Nicole and is more well liked.

And who says jury will care less about winning comps? James can simply say, “You’re bigger. You’re smarter. And you had allies great at winning comps. I had none of that. Yet still here I am sitting right besides you. I made big moves like evicting Victor which only didn’t work out because he was allowed to come right back in after being evicted. And I still survived. Without winning comps. Without closest allies winning any comps at the end. Just me and my wits going head to head without any of your advantages.” Which might be enough to take him from 3 or 4 votes to 5.

Rob

When he is talking to either Nicole or James, he is saying what he thinks they want to hear. Don’t really know who he wants to be in a final 2 with

Liar, Liar, Pantsuits on Fire

And in part four Production decides who wins AFP.

natnat

Production pissed about working on a pointless comp, nicole wins and when she beats Paul in the final hoh and takes james your boy will be heartbroken it’s going to be epic tv. Wednesday can’t come quick enough!

Anonymous

The final comp is ……..”.which housemate said what”…………how can Nicole win this………..she was in bed with Corey all season long. She was not bothering to get to know the other houseguests. Paul however, was a social butterfly…..he talked to everyone.
Watch to see how Nicole answers these questions, that will be your eye opener on how much production is in their ear.

Roll Tide

Production will help Nicole with the answers. Ssssssshe is their pet.

Anonymous

Corey even told Nicole if they ask him a question for that comp should he answer serious or comical, giving Nicole an advantage so she would know which one to choose when it came to his question. Production did not call them out on it when they said on the live feeds.

Anonymous

She’s already said TWICE that they’ve helped her in comps. Nat said straight up production TOLD her to work with nic and Corey when Nat really wanted to nominate them. It’s ridiculous!

Itsmedave

Paul can’t win! Against James, James would definately get Nat and Big Meech…he gets Davonne and Nicole because of their long term friendship and he gets Corey cause Nicole will tell him to…Paulie could go either way. Against Nicole…Nicole def gets Corey, James, Davonne, Paulie..and Paulie tells Zak how to vote…Big Meech hates them both and could go either way…Bridgette likely goes Nicole cause she wants a girl to win

bd22

Paul I really really hope that you are pulling a snow job right now!!! I really really hope that you’re acting because if you are serious about taking Nicole to the final 2 you are going to blow it!!!
you have worked too hard and come too far to screw it up now and come in second!!! Don’t overthink it don’t let your Fukin ARROGANCE AND EMOTIONS get into it!!!
if you take her you are going to get smoked in the final vote!!!
wake up dude!!!

bbEricfan

When Paul talks to James about Nicole, he does not — in Paul’s parlance — “sh!t on her.” But he deops a big turd when talking about James to Nicole. When he “sh!ts” on someone, he is usually being honest. He might actually be serious about taking Nicole. And Nicole is likely going to throw Part 3 of the HOH to Paul to get into the Final 2.

It is hard to read this jury regardless.

Bored now...

Paul just talks way too much s…t about James. Getting tired of it. He’s talked trash for weeks. I wish they would have kept Victor. I don’t like Paul….never cared.

Anonymous

Basically he’s only saying these things about James because he doesn’t want Nicole to pick James to take to F2. Obviously. Should he being saying what a great guy James is or pointing out anything he thinks would sway Nicole? Don’t worry, it’s only 500k on the line.

Itsmedave

James vs Nicole…James gets Nat, Big Meech, Victor, Davonne (maybe) Nicole gets Corey, Paulie, Zak, Brigette, maybe Davonne…Paul vites against whomever cut him at final 3

yawn

no chance james gets victor.

Anonymous

Da’vonne, Michelle and Bridgette will vote for best game. I don’t think they’ll vote for James simply because he’s James.

He’ll have to have a good speech because if he’s up against Paul I think Paul will have the best speech out of all 3.

Katie

There is NO WAY the AFP poll is correct… the numbers haven’t changed in like a month plus anyone who would award JAMES for not playing the GAME when he is on this show to be playing a GAME obv doesn’t respect the fact that this is in fact a GAME. I myself have Voted in the off. CBS BB AFP poll for Victor… loved that guy.
We can all say what we want about PAUL or NICOLE but they both DESERVE the win for the simple fact they BOTH act. Played the GAME of Big Brother. I am personally rooting for Paul though Nicole I wouldn’t be mad at but James would “hurt my heart”. (I’m a Bratty Natty voice lol)

The Truth

Elissa, Donny and Crazy James (BB9) all won it. All three were terrible Big Brother players. But fans liked them.

So what?

Well

Also Big Jeff won AFP TWICE …I honestly remember more AFP winners that didnt play the game well than those who did play it well…u ve seen how strategic and game oriented America is in the care packages…dont expect impossible..

Yoyoyo

How is it that James is leading in the AFP poll? From reading the comment section, majority want Victor to win AFP and Paul to win the game.
I don’t understand the outcome of this poll.
AFP —Victor!!!!!

vet

U guy’s forget this is not a moral game see what happen to Vic I really think Nicole played the best game this season and do deserve the win over Paul its not who wins the most comp or even hoh its a social game she did it she found out the formula that navigates her to final five then started to play the game same thing derrick did his season while still had their hands with everyone else getting evicted. That’s exactly how u play the game and all the jury members except Vic will vote for her. This is how big brother is played from season 1

JJtoWin

That isn’t how all BB games have been played since BB1, and certainly not how most of the winners have won.

rJ

Hoping for James & Nicole in final 2. I’d give Vic AFP, he had the most heart.

Please someone explain!!!!

One Houseguests wins 5 comps, nominated 6 times and evicted people who weren’t really threats to them. Voted 8 times and 5 times in the majority.

One Houseguests wins 4 comps, not nominated for 91 days and was only nominated to get split up and evicted people who openly wanted them out. Voted 12 times and 11 in the majority.

Why is the former houseguests praised by saying they played the best game while the latter is called one of the worst players ever?

Now watch this get wayyyyyy more dislikes than like and tons of people saying terrible things about the latter Houseguests.

Markus

In the very beginning of this year, I thought Paulie and James had the best shot at winning this year. WAS I EVER WRONG!!!

Paul turned out to be a huge psychopath and James turned out to be truly dumb and clueless (I can’t believe some of you guys think he is throwing these comps to get to final 2 LMAO!)

I have one major beef with production’s choice. Why do they pick a black person who acts black, a latino person who acts latino, but yet they pick an asian who acts country??? Is asian accent not funny? lol

Bummer Finale

We all know it’s going to be Paul vs. Nicole in final comp where they both are on the antique scale going up or down with each correct answer.

If Nicole wins it will be a bummer like last season because she will take James to F2 and she will win. Paul the best player of the season will get 3rd place just like Vanessa the best player last year got third. Please save this season and not have a bummer finale.

If somehow Paul wins that scale comp he has to prove me right about him being the best player and take James to F2. The final great move by the best player of the season Paul.

Nicole has lock on Day, Corey, Bridge, James and Natalie jury votes. Natalie votes Nicole over Paul just because she would rather have female winner. Bridge same.

Paulie could go either way if it’s Nicole and Paul F2. And Zak will do what she thinks Paulie her obsession is doing. Michelle we know voting for anyone but Nicole. Paul has Vic and Michelle as his only for sure votes against Nicole.

That scale comp decides it. Go Paul. Nicole cracks under pressure. You can win that! James is total turd and no way in hell deserves F2 as you know but take him cuz it gives you 500 grand!

Anonymous

If production uses Corey in the jury segments they have to answer questions about, then we’ll know it’s true what everyone’s been saying about production

Nicole and Corey already discussed what he should say ( whether Corey should answer the question seriously or jokingly) so Nicole will be sure to get his right.

As soon as they said it, the feeds went to fish. The only way they can make it truly fair is to leave Corey’s out.

Tington

I understand how James is popular with casual fans, but how the hell does a site of supposed Big Brother super fans who follow Live Feeds have him ranked top for AFP in this poll? Is this a joke you guys? Are all of you just trolling? There is NO way he is that popular here, RIGHT?

AnyoneBUTJames for AFP

I’m assuming the numbers on the AFP opinion poll on here must be a joke? James is one of my top 10 ‘least favourite’ players of all 18 seasons.

Jake K.

When Paul needs to step up and gets nervous he NEVER CARED. He just goes out and does it. So much friendship everywhere. Let’s goooooooooo!!!!!!! PAUL FOR THE WIN!!!

d.

can nicole actually win? i feel like she’s in a kingmaker position where whoever she’s sitting next to beats her and the guys would be dumb not to take her.

james vs. nicole
james gets votes from natalie, meech, da, paul, and victor easily. corey’s a sure vote for nicole. paulie, z, and bridgette’s votes also could go james, but don’t matter. james wins

paul vs. nicole
paul gets victor, paulie, meech, natalie, and bridgette. james and corey vote nicole. da and z are harder to predict, but again don’t matter. paul wins.

paul vs. james is way harder to call and both james and paul should be actively trying to avoid such a situation. but i think james gets at least nicole, corey, natalie, meech, and da for the win. victor obviously votes paul. bridgette, paulie, and z are harder to call, but don’t matter.

i could always be off with this speculation, but this is where it feels people’s heads are at voting wise (except z whose decision making is so nonsensical i can’t even attempt to figure it out).

Actually

Natalie has said she will vote for Nicole or Victor if they’re in the final2 without James in her Jeff interview.

If it’s Nicole/James
Da’Vonne,Zakiyah, Paulie, Corey for Nicole
Natalie, Michelle for James
Bridgette, Paul and Victor will be the swing votes.

If it’s Nicole/Paul
Da’Vonne,Zakiyah,Paulie,Corey, Natalie and James for Nicole
Victor, Michelle for Paul
Bridgette again is the swing
If it’s Paul/James
Paulie,Corey,Victor,Nicole, Zakiyah for Paul
Natalie,Michelle for James
Da’Vonne and Bridgette would be the swing

Da’Vonne has said multiple times she would vote for Nicole during the jury segments I doubt she’ll vote anyway else just because it’s not with Corey.

Your right about Michelle not voting for Nicole she’s way too bitter.

If Nicole votes out Paul she’ll have to work to get his and Victors votes but she’ll probably get the respect card for getting so many big players out.

d.

i think da has respect for nicole’s game and really doesn’t want to appear bitter as bitter voting has cost many contestants the chance of returning again (vanessa is conspicuously absent from this season, and the calls for jason and scot to never return to survivor after their voting last season was very loud). but that said, of the three people left in the house, nicole’s the one da got along with the least. i feel most of her comments were covering her for a nicole/corey final 2 where she would be adamant about convincing the rest of the jury to vote nicole over corey, but now that corey’s out, i think she’s less inclined to be 100% team nicole.

yawn

love or hate nicole she won the most important HOH of the season… the FIRST one.. she got the vets together and they survived the beginning part of the game.. nicole was then able to coast for weeks with the frank, da, vanessa shenanigans… then the focus shifted to paulie.. then to vic/paul.. then to nat/james… all the while people dropped out along with those “targets”… she may have floated… james may have floated… but they didnt really need to do much more than float in this game… i dont get why people call nicole a snake… i dont really like her personality.. but the truth is she is still in the house… james is still in the house…. if really anybody should be called a snake its paul… paul 2-faced frank to death running back and forth between frank and paulie… mocking him… paul screwed his PP alliance member paulie… paul calls a chick see you next tuesday in the kitchen… and is a generally borish/loud human…

people see what they want to see.

Anonymous

The only votes nicole will have on lock are James, Paulie, Corey, and Z. Meech will be a toss up because she hates both of them. I could see her getting Nat and Bridgettes votes because they want a girl to win. That’s all she really needs to win. If nicole wins it’s not because she played a better game. It’s because like always a floater made it to the end. Only she had james and Paulie on her side from the beginning. To me paul is more respectable because he didn’t sleep the whole season, hasn’t played before, was against the vets in the beginning, and didn’t know one hg family nor had a F2 deal with another. All James and Paulie had to do was get someone to be their “bestie” during the season and she automatically has 5 votes including whoever she used as hers. That’s not playing the game, it’s called coming in prepared…. I’d have more respect for her if she came in without any pregame alliances and won on her own merit. She didn’t play the game in the beginning because she knew she didn’t have to. Paulie ran the house and was on her side. Not only that, but she certainly didn’t run the house after he left.

Aside from Natalie and Corey it’s really difficult to know who the others will vote for. There are several factors.

Dr. Will does a very good job getting jury members to vote based on gameplay. Generally the ones you think will vote out of vindictiveness, don’t when it comes down to it. They know it will make them look bad in the end.

The speeches are another huge factor. I don’t think poor James will be able to come up with a very good speech but I guess we’ll see if he’s in the final.

Long Time Fan

1. Paul is very entertaining and played a great game, but his attitude towards women is horrible.
2. Nicole turned the tables when she was down 5-2 like the vet she is, but her under cover Corey activity was gross.
3. James made sure that there was always a bigger target each week, but his comp skills are awful.

Analysis – We have no all time great player here, but I think the worst game player will win (James). The jury has soured on the anti-women attitudes and that will hurt Paul even though he probably played the best game. Everyone hates a snake (exception of Andy but he was against a bigot) so Nicole is unlikely to win. James may have coasted with no comp skills, but he is definitely likeable as a person and I think that will get him the undeserved win.

Roxt

VICTOR FOR AFP!!!

And crossing fingers here for upcoming juries as entertaining as BB18 jury for all future seasons! LMFAO! People, that was TV GOLD! I absolutely love the more they drag Paulie and the more that moron let himself get dragged! So BEAUTIFUL to watch! Great that his pet Corey was evicted. They can both be their *sshole selves in the jury and give a chance for Bridgette to shut them down!

Allie

Who cares if you think Paul is an asshole? Who cares if he will or will not hangout with any of these people outside of the house? I mean..yeah most times they remain friends, but that is because they want to. There is no contract signed saying Paul needs to like these people/ be BFFs forever with these people. He came here to win $500,000 by outlasting and outsmarting everyone that came in. He did that, he deserves to win. Big Brother is not a show were people are cast so that we can judge them as a person. I like James as a person..hate him as a player. I like Paul as a player but doesn’t seem like my type of person. Does he deserve to win Big Brother?!? Yess!

Carin

Because I refuse to vote for anybody that was in a showmance, those showmance bitches ruined BB18 season…
I’m voting DaVonne for AFP, she is the only one besides Frank that kept the show entertaining all around. Best Diary Room sessions, funny watching her trying to manipulate other players, and the drama (telling it like it really is).
Zak gets AWP(worst player) they should add that lmao

anonymous

and for AWP, their prize is they have to give up their stipend! lol

Anonymous

Well I knew Paul would win the first part. If he beats Nicole at random fill-in-the-blank next Wednesday he wins the game. Nicole can still win but her biggest mistake was working with Paul/Vic to get Natalie out. It was going to take a lot of chances to get both Paul and Vic out and wasting a week there might be what costs her the game. Say what you will about James but at least he betrayed Paul/Vic at the correct time. It’s 50/50 though b/c anyone can win the 3rd part of the HOH.

hilLIARy for prison

Paul is going to have to beat Nicole in part three. James will have to be dragged to the finals by Paul or Nicole.

Anonymous

No, I think it was a good move getting Nat out. She should have gotten Paul out last week instead of Vic, then got Vic out right after. Yes, I’m sure Vic is intelligent, but he’s not as good as paul at the mental comps. I doubt he would’ve beaten Nicole in that one (seeing as how she did so well). Seriously, she’s played (and I’m sure watched) this game before. She should have thought to herself that there would be a mental comp coming up. Granted Nat is no comp beast, but she has done pretty well in a lot of them (mostly coming in 2nd place). Her biggest mistake was not realizing they were due for a mental comp… especially how all they talked about was another DE or something similar to it needing to happen. They most likely could have gotten both Paul/Vic out right in a row. But I’m not complaining, I like them and am glad Paul is winning HOH’s right now.

Mimi

Paul and Nic will probably be final 2 with Nic winning but the way they are insulting James right now, blaming him for Victor being put on the block and being evicted. Victor leaving was all Nic and Corey’s deal. The name calling and hate towards James is uncalled for and disgusting. They are winning and should leave it at that. They dont even have to go there, James would never do that to them. Its a game and to still want to attack someone that isn’t even in your way from winning the game. The insults doesn’t help their game one way or another. It just shows what kind of people they are. Very disappointing.

LifeLessons

Thank you Mimi, I totally agree.

Anonymous

Totally agree. Don’t like the way they are bashing James either.

So anyway...

Nailed it Mimi.

JJtoWin

But James IS in their way of getting the potential F2 spot. Both of them are entirely BSing each other. Paul wants Nicole to be convinced he’s taking her to F2 and/or trying to convince Nicole not to take James herself…all when they know that’s exactly what each will do..

Ingodseyes

James cannot be serious about throwing any comps this late in the game. That boy’s a fool
