Then I let it go but last night she was just grating my nerves with her words and the belching.  Get some meds for gosh sakes.  she's not in her 20s  it's not cute.  I wanted Jason to go off on her so bad.

Jason's available ammunition appears to be methane!  I like Kryssie's personality and misfit ways, guess that means I am a misfit too.  But I understand how it can be a bit extreme at times.

I don't see why Jason had to do the comp again. If the malfunction happened after he did the comp and his time wasn't affected by it, his time on the comp should have been locked. Then Shelby could have done the comp again the next night and if she beat Jason's time, then it would have been fair.

 

 

I am beginning to conceptualize this type of "directorial meddling" as something that has been part of all of the BB seasons, it has just been easier to detect on BBOTT and therefore easier for viewers to resent, or am I being paranoid?

Nope, Shelby gets another pass. Her malfunction on the first try was after Jason's completed time but BB has decided that the same ruling on a third re-do is not warranted in the exact same scenario the second time.   This stinks to high heaven

Ok last night Shelby's performance was hindered during the HOH, now Jason has that same issue.  What will be the result of the equipment malfunction now that the re-do of the HOH comp has also been affected?  Co-HOHs for Jason and Shelby?

6 PM BBT. HOH showdown between Jason and Shelby is about to begin, re-do of the Laser Targeting comp due to malfunction. According to Twitter "BBOverTheTop ‏@BBOverTheTop 12m12 minutes ago

.... I tried to vote for ACP last night and was locked out. If others were locked out of voting then how is the vote fair?

And I think its fair for Jason and Shelby to get a redo on the second HOH comp. Lets just hope Jason can win it.

Since this incarnation is 100% Internet, we really need an official and solidly dependable "schedule" web page for all of these adjustments in voting events and, really, all events.  The only option now is to head to Twitter.

@sayre11: Were you trying to vote between 7 and 8 pm BBT? (my source for the voting window : http://mortystv.com/bbott/ ;  see this passage "...During this week's double eviction, the Houseguests will not compete in a veto competition. Instead, the winner of this care package will be awarded with the power of veto. There will be just one hour of voting (HERE) 7-8PM BBT.").

They should have had nominations before the cp.  

 

This is starting to look rigged.

This is disconcerting! Especially with respect to the broken mirror fiasco early this morning.  Who is to say that Kryssie's time would NOT have been better than Shelby's?  How "close" was Shelby to finishing the comp? All four, houseguests (Jason, Shelby, Kryssie, Justin) in this comp should get a re-do.  Cherrypicking the two who get to re-do the task has us angered.  For instance, at what time point did Kryssie reach a comparable level of task progression where Shelby's mirror broke?????

Initially, I wasn't paying a lot of attention to the feeds and what was really going on in the game. After going back and reviewing what had happened earlier in the game and what the live feeders were doing, I am back to hating fan involvement. After going back, I realized the fans are basically a super HOH with the ability to hear absolutely everything and then cast their votes according to who they like and do not like. The fans are giving the ACP, nominations and eviction votes strictly based on popularity with the fans and not on game moves. Maybe, that would not be so bad if the fans didn't have the ability to listen to all the HOH's plans, and then vote to protect a player that may be targeted, nominate a player that wasn't targeted and then vote out a player that was never supposed to be in jeopardy. The fan nominee was the evictee in every week except one. I wasn't closely following the season from the start, and, after reviewing everything, I suspect I will follow it even less. i am pretty sure i will be canceling AllAccess pretty soon. If this was supposed to be a test, this will probably be the first and only season for OTT, because I feel like the fans have ruined the game play.  I imagine a lot of fans probably feel the same as I do. 

I am in agreement!  Maybe these aspects are also influenced by the dreaded "vote-for-the-worst" Internet pressure.

If the Plastics continue to get the support of the LF votes, Dani's HOH will be for nothing. She can put up two of the Plastics but if the LF vote puts up one of the LNJ and also gives the care package to either Whitney or Shelby, the outcome can only end up with the LNJ nom going home.

 

This care package gives one side way to much power. Cancelling three votes at this point in the game, when there are only five house guest's voting plus the LF vote, unbalances the whole vote. Can the LF vote be one of the ones cancelled? 

 

It's my opinion that the LF voting is giving too much power to people who aren't living in the house. 

I agree, there is a fundamental imbalance in the game's design with respect to the 'extra' perks, even when those perks have their own set of punishment.

Thanks!!!

Does anyone know the name of the band she is in? 

My wife tells me Neeley and Morgan did complete POV TASK Kryssie is struggling with.       My feed is locking up, I cannot update from this point on this evening.

Kryssie Asking to be disqualified but [seemingly sadistic] production remains unswayed.

Kryssie having major trouble doing POV, hands bleeding has to or needs throw in towel...   POV TASK involves wall climbing while answering questions about Monte, Shane, and Cornbread, all answers are number plates that are hung in answer areas accessed via wall climbing.

@AtomicRooster I haven't had that problem very much at all this season.  I did a lot at the end of BB18 but that were IOS issues as soon as I found Puffin app that solved the problem for me.  I know others have had that issue and CBS put out a release saying they are trying to resolve issues across various platforms early this week though.  

Thank you for this info. The issue seems to persist, especially (my hypothesis) when folks on the West Coast go online after their day at work or school.  Still hanging on for now.

The constant "Loading , please wait" and live stream lockups should be putting CBS on notice. I won't be paying for long at this, paying for nothing doesn't inspire fanaticism.

Our wifi only Roku chokes constantly. Meanwhile the iPad chokes significantly less, but it takes away from the experience. Now that the Wednesday night show is on all of the streaming issues are much worse!!   "Loading, please wait" Note, we pay for the $9.99 a month subscription (no commercials).

Thanks for your replies. Hopefully it was just "free trial " overload

We are having our Roku stream cut out on us and we would like to see if it is happening to anyone else. We have 75 MB/second net speed that seems solid.  Thanks for your input!!
