  1. You may be having a login/cookie problem. Either you re-entered the incorrect information at some point, or your tablet may not be remembering your login information anymore. Just guesses.
  2. Warning points are given to members who have to be warned about behaviour which does not conform to our rules. In addition to the points, punitive actions may be taken depending on the offense and its severity, as well as if it is a repeat offense. You can acquaint yourself with our rules here: http://www.tvfanforums.net/index.php?/forum-9/announcement-5-forum-rules/
  3. As far as I can tell, the javascript incorporated in the slideshow being used may be responsible for the false positive. In all probability, some of the code is putting up a red flag in some anti-virus/malware software since it resembles parts of certain trojans. After running an independant check over at Quttera, results came back as follows. Detailed information on the 2 files is as follows: In both cases, it had to do with a script called "Enlarge it". Either Avast has to modify their virus tables, or the software Morty uses to produce his slideshows needs to modify their code. In the meantime, don't worry about the messages is my advice.
  4. As Katydidit mentioned in her posts on another thread, this may be a false positive. However, if anyone else is having this problem, please post here and mention: - the name of your anti-virus software - which browser you are using (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera, etc.) - the error message / name of the trojan in question That way, I can look into it. (I couldn't find any info on the trojan using the exact name Granny provided.) In the meantime, you can try updating your Java and checking for any recent updates to your anti-virus software and virus lists.
  5. Winning the first HoH usually isn't a good move because it puts a huge target on your back. Agreed. But if you're like McRae, you already have a huge target on your back for being different and not fitting in. So what have you got to lose? And as for doing the same stupid thing year after year by not putting up the dangerous players, instead putting up those who seem liike "weak links", that is done to show that you, the HoH, are not a threat. Kind of a "I didn't put you up when I had a chance, so now that you're HoH, return the favour and don't put me up!" thing. It's a strategy. And it might be his only move, since whoever survives the block usually comes after that first HoH, so if you can't put someone up that you KNOW everyone can't stand, maybe it's better to have two weak players up there, so whoever isn't voted out is someone who doesn't have that good of a chance at winning HoH anytime soon.
  6. Those first 2 photos are so photo-shopped! Like, in the first one, if you look behind the girl on the right with her feet in the pool you'll see an arm and a foot that could only be attached to a body if there were some broken bones involved. And in the second one, they took pictures in small groups or alone and then put it all together.
  7. It's already set up this way. Topics with new replies appear in bold. To the left of the topic title in the forum list you should see a dot or star icon also highlighted. Clicking this icon will take you straight to the first new reply posted in the topic since the last time you read it. (This only works if you're logged in, if course.) Clicking instead on the time of the last post, to the right of the topic title, will instead take you directly to the last post in the topic.

    For our Canadian members, Big Brother After Dark will be airing from 4 to 6 a.m. on the SLICE channel. (Now available in HD! Channel 601 for non-HD, channel 1704 for HD, on Bell Expressvu.) I was a big fan of the curated After Dark shown during the Big Brother Canada season. Often, I had no time to watch any live feeds, so recording After Dark and fast-forwarding through it the next day let me catch the best or most important moments.
  9. This thread is for posting screen captures with SHORT captions of explanation. Watching the feeds and see something interesting? Grab a screen capture and post it here. You might end up seeing it posted on Morty's daily coverage page! Thank You!
  10. I love my PVR! I was surprised not to see Peter throw up the Sheyld sign when he came in, so I immediately skipped back and watched it in slow motion. He definitely threw up the sign as soon as he entered and came to a halt. But they switched cameras just as he did so, and didn't come back to him until he had resumed walking. As Hawknose said, you can definitely clearly see both names on the keys as she picks up Jillian's. But you have to be pretty much watching in slow motion, like I did. (And it's much clearer on my PVR than on the YouTube clip.) I agree with both the above posts. If Jillian could forfeit the win without forfeiting the prizes, I would be behind that. It would be a nice way of having your cake and eating it too. As it stands, you can look at the result as being stereotypically Canadian. What other country would declare two winners? Everyone knows that Topaz meant to vote for Gary and that this means he had the victory. But Jillian is given the prizes and one can definitely argue that her competition wins, willingness to deceive, and her social game keeping her off the block for the entirety of the season could be considered meritorious of being crowned the winner. In all fairness, expecting Jillian to actually give up $80,000 + $25,000 gift card at The Brick + $25K to $35K vehicle after giving up 70 days of freedom under intense public scrutiny is just ludicrous. If her win was due to a clear production mistake, I could possibly understand. And what brookteag said about Gary at the end of the post is spot on.
  11. My turn to apologize to you, Hawknose! I was chiming in via my mobile phone, so I kept it short. I didn't mean that I thought no one should rate the show, I just meant that I personally do not like to give ratings. Many times, it takes a long while after a show wraps up before I've made up my mind about how much or little I enjoyed it. And I agree with pretty much every point Brekkie Boy made. (And come to think of it, I've agreed with Brekkie Boy on pretty much everything since 2005!)
  12. I really should have. I thought it would have been hard to get away for that extended amount of time, but in the end, if I had tried out and been successfully chosen, I would have found a way. It might be easier for me next year, so maybe I'll give it a try and get some Quebec representation going in there! However, it will be pretty hard to top this year's cast, in my opinion. They really were a well-mixed bunch. I guess that if I decide to go for it, I should start working out a.s.a.p. LOL
  13. I am curious to see linterviews with Topaz after the finale. I think she thought she put Gary's key in there. (Why else would she say someone switched it?) So she didn't put in Jillian's key thinking that she was voting to evict Jillian. She was just thinking about Jillian so much (and her 150% jibe, from the iceberg challenge and subsequent week) that she couldn't help but grab the key marked "Jillian". And yes, she definitely shouldn't be allowed to edit her vote, regardless of how the mistake occurred.
  14. I don't believe in giving ratings. I enjoyed the show. Yes, there were some glitches, but I can easily look past those without it affecting my enjoyment.
  15. I think back to BB8 (With Evel Dick, his daughter Daniele, and Zack being the final 3). The first part was endurance, but wasn't the simple hanging onto something the longest type. They had to hold onto a rope while also jumping over a bar that passed by at various intervals and different heights. (Zack won) The second part invloved swimming underwater through a tank and completing a trivia puzzle. (Dick won) In BB9, Ryan and Adam proved that taking the weaker non-comp-threat Sheila was a good move. In BB10, Memphis and Dan proved that taking Jerry was the smart move. I think that if Emmett had been able to ask Dan the hypothetical of having to choose between allied comp-threat Gary versus non-allied non-comp-threat Talla to join him and Jillian in the final 3, Dan would have counselled him to choose Talla. Emmett played it safe by taking Gary, so that in case he and Jillian lost the final HoH he would get picked. Instead, he should have taken Talla, because she had a much smaller chance of beating both of them to become the final HoH. Gary proved he was a strategic player by choosing Jillian over Emmett (votes versus loyalty). It's only fate that by choosing Jillian, he messed with Topaz's mind so much she couldn't get Jillian off her mind and ended up putting her key in the voting slot.
  16. I think Dan told them that he hadn't seen any episodes except the first one as a ploy, when in actuality he had. That way, they wouldn't think he was partisan to anyone. His slip up about the talking moose could have given him away, but he tried covering that after the fact.
  17. 5:55pm BBT Feeds are back. Jillian and Emmett work out in the backyard while the other 3 are in the kitchen. Emmett says that it doesn't matter if they don't win the next HoH, they just have to win the veto. Jillian is now saying that she is not so sure they should take Talla to final 3 because she could win endurance.
  18. Gary was talking about jury off and on last night. (See my AfterDark report in yesterday's Update thread, from before the feeds came back last night after the show.) He did get warnings from Big Brother not to talk about production. And he did often repeat (many times in the middle of talking about jury) that he was not allowed to talk about pretty much anything from outside the house.
  19. 4:30pm BBT Still SotH as Talla probably tries to complete her "Talking With Talla" task from Marsha the moose.
  20. The AfterDark report (from before the feeds came back last night, approximately 9pmBBT to 11:30BBT.) Everyone except Gary are in the kitchen. (Gary is in the DR.) Andrew mentions to Emmett how he will be getting another HoH letter. Emmett tells him that he'll probably also get some booze. Andrew jokingly dashes a cooking spoon to the ground. Andrew proceeds to makes slop. Says that Gary told him he looks skinny. Andrew tells Talla "We might be having just a small portion, my dear, of the old slop-shake. Brought to you by... Big Brother twists!" (Talla is still wearing her competition outfit. Waiting to be called in to DR after Gary.) Talk turns to about how hot it is. Andrew speculates that it may be because on eviction nights there are extra lights out there heating it up even more. They discuss whether or not there will be a Have/Have-Not competition. Talla hopes not. Gary comes out of the DR. Says that he doesn't have a change of clothes right now except what he was wearing before. Says he asked DR for clothes. Talla gets called to DR. Apparently, he really wasn't told in advance that he would be re-entering. Gary says that he had his own room, in the basement, at jury house, and luxuries there on the bed, and he watched Sex And The City and True Blood. He says he doesn't eat breakfast or lunch, and that dinner gets made. And he has wine. BB "Houseguests, please stop talking about production." Emmett: "Can you wake up when you want?" Gary: "We wake up whenever the fuck we want!" Andrew offers Gary some slop. He declines, but thanks Andrew for putting him on slop, which caused him to lose 10 pounds. Gary goes to change "back into my 'fab' clothes". Andrew tells Emmett that he's happy that Emmett won the HoH competition. Reminds Emmett that next week he won't be able to compete in it. Jillian says how it's exactly like last week, except reversed. Emmett says "I just kept my mouth SHUT this time." Andrew says that he talked to himself a couple of times. Jillian says she knew Emmett had it. And that she tried to give him a graceful look of enthusiasm, but she wasn't allowed to say a word. Now Andrew and Emmett break down their strategies and experiences during the HoH. Jillian compliments the guys on keeping their cool during it, and says that she would have panicked. Andrew tells Emmett "you're not just a physical guy, are you!?!". Jillian says "he's got a little bit of some brains up there, I think!" Gary comes back to the kitchen. Andrew asks Gary if Alec and Topaz were "gumming up", or were they hating each other. Gary says "I can't talk about it. I can't talk about anything. I tried. Ask Emmett." Gary looks in the freezer and remarks, "Oh, they gave us ice trays!" Emmett says that Peter will be pissed, because he's not 6th, not 5th. Andrew tells Gary that there are so many questions he'd love to ask. He tells Gary that his twin brother was in this house. Back from commercial break, Jillian and Emmett brush their teeth in the washroom. Jillian is again saying how it's just like last week, only reversed. Emmett finishes brushing first, weighs himself, tells Jillian that he's going to go lie down, and goes to the main bedroom and does just that. Jillian finishes up a minute later and goes to join him. Tells him "I have such a major crush on you when you win things! I don't know what it is." They snuggle up under the covers and start kissing. They whisper. Jillian says that she was happy with her decisions last week after seeing Gary come back in. She tells him that she's happy he will be getting a letter and some pictures. So happy. They talk about having to win competitions, and how the schedule has not been since back, meaning that next week is probably a double eviction. Emmett says that if it's a double eviction, that means it has to be a "fast veto", and how he doesn't do well at those, he does better when the veto takes time. Jillian "Gary's been my biggest threat the whole time he's been here." Emmett "Listen, we have some options now." Jillian (smiling) "You are an evil person. I don't know how I got teamed up with you." Emmett "Better be with me than against me". Jillian laughs. Andrew and Talla come in to the main bedroom. Andrew jokes "I had a weird dream that Gary's back". Andrew hangs up his costume from the competition. Andrew tells them that the backyard is now open. Emmett and Jillian get up and make their way to the backyard. Andrew comments how his HoH meant nothing (now that Gary is back after getting evicted during Andrew's reign). Talla is complaining about wanting to eat. She is lying down on a bed, looking weak. Now she is complaining about wanting a cigarette. Andrew says "Old Gary's back, eh? Think about how pissed off those guys are, or maybe not, who knows?" Talla "I would be surprised if they all thought that they had a chance". Jillian and Emmett come back, saying they were told to go back to the bedroom wing. (Gary is the only one not there now, they assume he's in the DR.) Jillian hopes that her family is handling all of this well. She says they're probably like "There's all these freaking twists, Jillian's like going to die, actually die, of a freaking psychological breakdown." Jillian considers that if she loses and gets put on slop tomorrow, she won't be able to sleep in Emmett's HoH room with him. Andrew jokes about having to be a servant again, Talla says she won't let that happen. (Doesn't explain how, though.) Jillian asks Talla "Why are your eyebrows so dark? I'm just kidding! They look really pretty." Jillain goes over to lie down next to Talla. Andrew and Emmett talk about the ridiculousness of bringing someone back in this late. They talk about how they are not fans of double evictions, but they are quick. They joke about Peter's reaction when he gets to jury house and finds out that Gary was brought back in. The four of them talk about how Gary was probably the only one with a real shot to get voted back in by Canada because he's such a big personality. Jillian and Emmett start making out again. Andrew says "Oh God. Somebody give me a blunt instrument. Give me that shoe, I want you to jam it up my ass!" Everybody laughs. Jillian "Give me a bottle of wine, Big Brother, and I'll do a show!" They think that the HoH competition got shown tonight on the live episode.. Emmett says how he yelled "If I'm fucking DQ'ed, just let me know right now" right after he won the Hoh competition. Andrew says he doesn't think he said "F". But Jillian and Talla say that he did. Andrew says that they'll edit it out, because it's not really live. Jillian, being bored, starts to strap a leather belt around Emmett's ankle. Emmett says "I'm going to wake up in the morning and be strapped to the bed like this, naked". Jillian "by who?" Andrew "And I'll be standing there with a whip, going 'Alright, here's the twist'." Jillian "Would you guys ever have, like, a room of pain, in your house?" Andrew "I have. You mean, like, another one? Besides the one I have in my basement. Aw crap! There's that guy down there, I forgot! I hope PEte let him out. I was done with him. I mean, girl." Jillian says she read all the 50 shades of grey books. Talk turns to Gary once they notice he's still not back. Jillian tells how she thought maybe production would have him come back with a bug in his ear and tell him where to put all the pieces, and then tell them all that it's a joke, he didn't win, and he's not really coming back in, just to wreak havoc with them. Andrew says he would have smashed something if Gary had won HoH. Says he does like Gary, but they got him out because he's a threat, and that's part of the game., they have an alliance, and it was time for somebody to go, and it was Gary's turn, and that was just the start of the train: Gary, Alec, Topaz, Peter. Jillian tells a story. Emmett had been called to the diary room, Jillian was all sweaty after doing yoga, and all alone in the bedroom. Peter came in and asked her where her head was at. Jillian tells him that he lied and made stuff up about Talla. Andrew hadn't heard the story yet. (For details, see previous updates from today.) In essence, Peter tells Jillian that she won't have the votes to win he leaves tonight. Jillian says she said "Don't you threaten me, Peter." Talk turns to jury members and bitterness. Jillian gets called to the diary room. We see Gary leave the diary room and walk through the house. As he passes his photo on the wall, he says "make me colour again!" Talla and Andrew tell Gary about having to be servants to the Haves. Telling him about the key in the soap. The rewards, which included Hockey statistics for the boys yesterday, and a red dress for Jillian. They wonder about the voting, and how many votes were cast, what the percentages were. Gary says he quit smoking while in the jury house. Talla asks if he just quit temporarily, and Gary says no, he has quit for life, because he doesn't want his skin to go bad. Gary talks about catching up on sleep in the jury house. That he slept for like 2 days straight when he first got there. Talking about slop and losing weight. Female BB voice: "Attention houseguests. Talla, please bring the coat-rack in the main bedroom to the storage room, and houseguests, you now have access to the rest of the house." "Houseguests, if you have costume items from today's challenge, please gather them and put them on that rack." The houseguests bustle and hurry to comply. Talla, Andrew and Gary bring the coat-rack to the storage room. They find Gary's bag containing the clothes he had brought to the hotel with him. He says that they are not very comfortable. Talla starts unpacking her bag. Gary changes out of his competition shorts. Talla tells Gary about the visit from the Toronto Argonaut cheerleaders. Back from commercial break, Andrew and Emmett are soaking their feet in the hot tub. Emmett hoping that Big Brother gives him chocolate milk. Andrew says that Talla and Gary don't listen. Gary comes out to join them. He notices the black moose above the fireplace, for the first time. (It wasn't there when he left the house.) Gary puts his feet into the hot tub too. They all say that is sucks that he can't tell them anything about jury. He asks how the last week was, and if there was drama. Emmett says that there was only some the last day. (Peter and Jillian.) Andrew tells Gary how first he and Peter were on the block. That Andrew was up as a pawn. Gary says that this means that Emmett Jillian and him are together. Andrew says that Peter only started campaigning the day before. Jillian joins them. Gary mentions how you have to listen to people campaign because they end up as jury members when they are evicted, and if you were an asshole to them, they won't vote for you. Gary about Peter's power of persuasion: "Peter could convince me I'm not black! LOL" Gary "it's still a game, in the jury". Jillian tells how when the sumo wrestler was in there, she was in a mid-walk position and had to hold it for 10 minutes while the guy ate a muffin, and her butt muscle was in a knot and she thought she was going to lose the task. Now they tell him how winning the Freeze task got them all a live chat with their families. Gary talk about his weight, and how he weighed 190 pounds when he first came in. Andrew: "Only 13 days left, though, my friend." Gary: "2 weeks and 3 days?" Andrew: "No, 13 days. Less than 2 weeks." <long pause> Gary: "Oh. Hey, I'm not in here for my math skills!" Emmett goes to get some ice cream, leaving Andrew and Gary alone at the hot tub. Andrew catches Gary up on events, and Gary grills him about alliances and motives for voting him out the first time. Andrew "Obviously, Alec horn-swaggled me, and unfortunately you were the victim of circumstance." Gary "But you're taking responsibility for some of it, right? You wanted me gone." Andrew "I did, yeah. Because of what they told me." Gary "So when you told me that Topaz was the target, I was the target, right?" Andrew "Yeah, you were. Yeah." Gary "You're a good liar!!! I believed you. Jeez!" Andrew "I know, I was like I can't believe he was believing it." Talla comes out to join them. Andrew goes back inside. Talla points out the moose. Gary says he's seen it. She says you can give it a name. They asked her where she was, and if it was "Virgo" (a DR person), but she said she can't talk about that (with a smile) She asks him what it's like to be back. He answers that it's amazing. He mentions that here in Toronto you can't see the stars, but where they were you could, and it was magical. Gary "You don't need to be really afraid anymore. It's anyone's game. Resurrected, I have a new attitude. It's kind of just like, who gives a fuck. The first time, it was real, now I'm just like, there's no pressure. Now I'm just going to have fun, do what I want, say what I want, live how I want." Gary "Thank you Canada! I love you! I'm doing this for you guys!" Talla says how she's happy to have made it this far. Final 5, than final 4, and now final 5 again. Talla tells Gary how talking with her family really strengthened her resolve. Talla talks about not knowing how long before she's going to see people after. Gary "I know what's going to happen. I know everything, like after. I can't tell you, obviously, but it's going to be fun. Like jury, and the parties, and the hotel." "There's a wrap party. I can't say anything else." BB voice: "Houseguests, you are not allowed to talk about production." They get up and go back to the house. Jillian and Gary talk about how time is being spent inside the house these days. Jillian says how they don't have communal suppers anymore because 2 of them were on slop. She now tells him about the Chicken Coop competition that she won last week. Emmett and Jillian start to play puck ball, and will show Gary the new twist with the cans at the end. Emmett gets called to the diary room. Gary eats a cucumber. Andrew comes out of somewhere. Gary says the cucumber has gone bad, and throws the rest away. Andrew washes the slop bucket. Gary goes to pee. Emmett and Jillian come back to the kitchen. Andrew tells them about how it's uncomfortable to face Gary and his questions about being voted out before. Gary comes back from the bathroom. Jillian tells Gary about the time they were scared Tom was coming back. Jillian explains the new twist to puck ball, she and Gary start to play. Gary really whips the napkin rings across, so hard that they can't stop in time. Andrew comes back from the kitchen and says "I hate this game so much." Gary is getting the hang of it now. Gary tells them about his mother being there both when he was evicted and when he was let back in. He says that Alec was really upset about getting voted out. Gary says that there were 3 teenage girls crying when he got evicted. He was like "What am I, the Beatles?" He says that Topaz's brother was at the taping with his Mom. (He says that it was confirmed to him at the jury.) (The game of puck ball continues.) Emmett comes out of the diary room. (Still no HoH key.) Andrew and Emmett come back from the storage rooms with a green dining room chair and a white kitchen chair. Gary switches positions of Peter's colour photo with his own black and white one, yelling "I'm back from the dead, bitches!" Jillian was at 9 to Gary's 8, and she gets a "hanger" worth 2 points, which makes it 11-9, and means that she can knock the can over once and go down to 10, and still go for the winning shot without having to get back up to 10 from 9, as usually happens Gary had put the can at the very edge of the table, not the line (he's new at this), so Jillian's shot knocks the can off the table, which it probably wouldn't have. Jillian knocks the can over and goes back down to 9. (How exciting.) The game continues. Gary tells them that he watched a movie called "Spun" last night, with Britney Murphey. They can't remember "Mena Suvari" is the name of the co-star. Gary tells them how he talked about the time Jillian had to pee in almost every one of his interviews. (There was a time when they were on outdoor lockdown where she had to pee so bad and wouldn't stop complaining, that BB let her back into the house to pee.) Jillian "It was the only time I cried in this house." Emmett is in the diary room. We come back from commercial and it looks like Jillian won the game. (I can't believe they let us miss that magical winning moment!) Talla takes Jillian's seat and challenges Gary. (They are waiting for Emmett to come out of the DR with his HoH key.) Gary complains about the heat in there. Andrew and Talla go out to the hot tub. Andrew tells Talla about the talk he had with Gary earlier. They talk about how if Gary wins PoV then one of them is going home. It starts raining, so they go back inside just as Gary was coming out. Andrew says he will change into his swim trunks and go in the pool for a bit. (Good, because that is where he will first be seen when the feeds come back, so that means this AfterDark report is almost over.) Andrew comes out and jumps in the pool. Talla and Andrew talk about what is likely to happen. <end of After Dark>
  21. 11:45pm BBT Gary (voted back into the house) goes up to see Emmett (the new HoH) and Jillian in the HoH room. Amidst small talk and a game of chess, Emmett tells Gary that he will be going up on the block against Andrew, with Talla as the replacement nominee if one of them takes themselves off. (Basically the same plan as last week, substituting Gary for Peter, and trying to keep Jillian safe instead of Emmett - JEDI.)
  22. Those were most likely "handlers", who are on the production staff to look after our evicted houseguests.
  23. All jury members (AJ, Gary, Alec and Topaz) were brought back to the studio and stood with host Arisa in front of the live studio audience, where they were told live that one of them were being let back into the house. Arisa added that the difference between 1st and 2nd place was less than 5%.
  24. Yeah, those are probably what BBUS houseguests have called "handlers".
