Ugh! the return of "The Stupid People" is just what this season needed to be boring & predictable.  They all like to talk about being  so smart and they can't seem to make a move without consulting with Paulie.

 

All the guys talk about how useless & stupid that Natalie is, but she is the only one who can see right through Paulie's schemes and manipulations.  If Natalie won an HOH,there is no doubt in my mind that she would nominate him straight up - no backdoor plan.

 

Davonne & James at times seem to be aware of Paulie's control of the house, but can't do anything to counter it.  It looks like their new strategy is "if you can't beat em - join em."  But they are not valuable, or core membes of Paulie's group so they won't last longer than 2 weeks.  i am quite disappointed in James & Davonne's game play - I expected so much more from the vets.

I think Natalie would want to nominate and get out Victor because she doesn't like him. That's what "the house" would probably want as well (aside from Paul) and what James would steer her towards.

The problem with this season was that roadkill ensured that the house got what it wanted each week pretty much. If you were in the minority or smaller group not much you could do unless you won everything.

I highly doubt it. If he was they'd have called him on it by now like how Frank got called on the butt slapping. Victor also has been called out and is pretty butthurt about it

My prediction is he'll be as clueless as ever at playing the game and get evicted sooner rather than later.

I like how they changed it to "vote for Zach" after the voting was practically over to save face.

While technically it's fair game for her to do that, I would have hoped she'd be above that sort of thing. It just shows what kind of person she is though.

I guess she has to help keep up Frankie's inflated sense of self worth anyway she can.

Donny told them that he was told the next TA they make up and we the voters get to approve it.

 

Donny wants Derrick and Frankie (both playing POV) to through the comp to him.

Is it majority rules or do they all have to agree to the mission they make up? Derrick and Frankie could do whatever they wanted if it was majority rules.

I think they should have to come up with two options, then voters get to approve one.

Don't suppose the DR would be fair enough to tell Donny that too!!!!

Team America should stop when one of the team is voted off!  In this case I hope Fakie & Derrick fail the next mission.

So all the money has to be given back because Joey was voted off?

I have also wondered for a while whether the thing between zack and victoria might have been an act.

They had to get Victoria some air time some how.

The way some people talk about him on this forum and not playing the game always reminds me of this:

As per usual having a house guest return is a waste of time.

Ideal scenario for me this week would be Nicole winning HoH and backdooring Christine and her going home.

I have to admit I'm laughing a bit at his Twitter account getting hacked.

The fact he's in an alliance that technically doesn't exist anymore, he's doing really well in the game.

I don't know what he's thinking going to Christine. I guess desperate times and all with nothing really to lose. She back-stabbed Nicole, so probably the last person to go to though.

I honestly think he's been trying to get into an alliance of some kinda since practically day 1 and no one takes him seriously. There was of course the terrible and short lived Crazy 8's. Then there was the Double D's with Devin.

Then he tried with Team America. Then he tried with Nicole & Hayden and they opted to go with Cody & Derrick.

So to say he hasn't been playing since Day 1 doesn't ring true to me.

He is an attention whore for sure. But I am worried more about his game play. I think he is taking a huge gamble not to at least feel the other folks out and find out if anyone would be open to the backdoor of Derrick. Then again, I kinda understand that he may be gun shy after the attempt to backdoor Zach and telling Nicole to put up the other guys. He probably feels he cannot initiate a conversation like that and have it blow in his face again.

I agree. I think that's why he's going along with what everyone wants and is backdooring Zach, he doesn't want anymore backlash at the moment.

I don't buy the conspiracy theories. In this day and age getting away with outright rigging stuff like this would come back to bite CBS at some point. I don't think they'd want any part of it.

With high definition TV, the feeds and the fact people can't keep quiet about anything, regardless of contracts signed.

On the other hand I could see production asking leading questions in DR sessions and selecting certain competitions at certain times that might produce the results they want.

You people really don't like Frankie. I think he is entertaining. I would rather watch him than Donny, Victoria or Cody. He makes the feeds worth watching and even Caleb has been entertaining.

He is entertaining to a point, then he just gets annoying. When someone is on too much of the time it turns from entertaining to attention whoring pretty fast.

I thought Hayden was more entertaining than Frankie. I think Zach is as well.

So Zingbot zinged her about her being all over Cody and now she's upset. I don't get what other way it was supposed to be perceived and why she keeps going on about perception.

It seems clear to me that Team America is only being kept around to protect Donny at this point.  After so many failed and/or rejected missions, it is nothing but an embarrassing joke now and serves no other purpose than that.

Except for the fact it doesn't really offer any protection. The missions sure don't and Derrick and Frankie are going to do whatever they want for their own games.

Derrick nominated Donny this week, TA didn't protect him from going up on the block.

Has any returning house guest ever really had any sort of impact on the game? Have they ever made it very far after getting back in?

I'd go with:

Jocosta

Caleb

Victoria

It's be hilarious because they'd never accomplish any missions and all would probably end up getting evicted over it.

Donny needs to take some responsibility. He is not that old. 42?

By his own admission he likes his alone time.

Donny had made comments to other houseguests about how all the younguns make too much noise at night and he is not happy about it.

He has up until the last few days gone to bed at 10pm every night.

He has said he will not go to people for an alliance that they have to come to him.

Just yesterday he was talking to Hayden about who he would put up. It would be Victoria and someone. Hayden was trying to urge him to put up Frankie but he said it is too early to make a power move because they will come after him.

Anyway I think he is a nice guy and I can see why people like him. I do see a lot in chats and forums that if anyone suggests putting up Donny then they are "bad people". That is just not fair.

He hasn't been going to bed at 10pm every night. Every single time I've watched the live feeds, he goes to bed at midnight. This has been going on for a long time now. It's not that bad really, it's not like he's going to bed at 9pm or something. He should be more flexible, but it's not the end of the world. He doesn't sleep for what seems like endless hours like some other people have at least by doing this.

He's made comments and he's joked about it too when people disturb his sleep. It's not like he gets really mad about it and into fights over it. Really a non starter.

When it comes to alliances he was trying to wait for an opportunity and to know people (aside from the Double D's) and everyone already sort of got together. He has said he wanted to work with Nicole & Hayden and talks to them all the time. So I don't think it's about just people coming to him. He's just hasn't been running around trying to form alliances with everyone. I think by saying people should come to him, he covers himself by not announcing he's trying to form alliances with everyone.

Not surprising he doesn't want to put up Frankie, what with Team America still in existence. It might get back to him the way everyone has loose lips this season as well. I notice Donny doesn't say as much to many people since that got him on the block once already. So far this season everyone is playing it safe, aside from Devin and look what that got him.

She was BotB fodder nothing more.

She really needs to get the POV used and put up Frankie, or someone other than Donny. If she doesn't it's a wasted week for her as HoH as Jocosta will most likely go home and she's not coming after her, let alone even a threat to anyone to begin with.

I would think this mission would be perfect for him in that he could vote to evict Jocosta and no one would suspect him in a million years. Yeah, the part where they have to openly accuse others of doing it isn't as easy, but coming from him it probably won't seem as threatening as if someone else says it.
