DreamAngel Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Let's see here. Will won by lying convincingly to everyone and the idiots in the house actually believing him Lisa won by riding the coat tails. She would not get in the middle of anything after Eric left. It's also because people saw Danielle in the diary room and it turned them off of her so they voted for the other option. Jun won because no one liked Alison so it was the lesser of two evils. Drew won because everyone liked him and Cowboy was a fool anyway. Maggie won because her "friendship" alliance was willing to do anything including sacrificing themselves for her, she also allowed them to bicker amongst themselves and didn't say anything so she was seen as all of their friend. Mike won because Will carried him along until final 4 where will was evicted by a wised up Janelle, after that he won one HoH competition where it mattered most. Just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King123 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Season 2- Will won because the rest of the cast are idiots. Nicole should have won, and she would of if she kept Monica Season 3- Lisa won because BB messed up and let the evictees see the diary room sessions Season 4- Jun won cause she can cook.. i dont know why people voted for Will, but wouldnt vote for Alison, in my eyes, they had a very similar game play Season 5- Drew won cause nobody wants a annoying cowbody to win who can even talk right Season 6- Maggie won because she was able to sit on her butt and let everybody play for her, She would of got 3rd place if she didnt have Ivette brainwashed Season 7- Mike won because his butt buddy Will did everything for them, then when will left Mike got all the credit cause he lasted longer. if it was Will v. Mike final 2, mike might of Got 1 vote and that was from the skank Erika! None of those people should of won, here are the people who should of won Season 2- Nicole, she played a Great game Season 3- Danni should of won hands down, but BB was stupid and showed her clips Season 4- Alison played a great game, but she made enimies, if they were so jusgemental she would of won, but nobody could of forgive her. when they should have Season 5-Nakomis was the best player, but out of the final2, Drew should of won, so he did Season 6- Janelle hands down was best player Season 7- sould of been Janelle again. the reason she lost was because she didnt have anybody left in the house to help her out. she should of won back-2-back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinCity Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I agree with all but the last 2... Janie should have won at least 1.. but then that is saying a lot for me because I am not a Janie fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCRebel Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 EDDIE- Eddie focused on building himself a fanbase to acquire votes. Most of the cast was concerned with not being controversial but Eddie knew being outspoken could give him the support of many. He was the only cast mate to have any sort of strategy and was deserving of the 500 G. WILL- Will was the master manipulator during his time in the house. He had a way of getting people to believe him and put faith in him when their better judgement suggested otherwise. He was able to turn people against each other and not focus on him. He could break deals without appearing to be the main culprit since he would usually manipulate teh HOH rather than being the HOH himself. By throwing competitions he never appeared as a great enough threat to need to go. LISA- Lisa was able to go far enough under the radar that she did not appear a big enough threat to anyone. She clung on to people and let them make enemies and eliminate each other. She watched everyone evict one another while she was able to just keep sneaking on by unnoticed. She was able to successfully worm her way in the final three with Danielle and Jason and then win a key Head of Household to seal her fate as the victor. JUN- Jun was able to be Alison's sidekick for the later half of the game giving her a major edge. Together with Alison she was able to make multiple deals going back and forth each round to get farther in the game. She was enough of an under the radar player so that she was not viewed as a major threat by any of the players. She and Alison were able to get to the final two mostly due to Ali's master manipulating with Jun playing a smaller part. Then she was seen as the lesser of two evils giving her the votes to win. DREW- Drew was able to be a nice enough guy with a sense of how to play. He was able to join an early dominate alliance in the Horsemen to give him enough staying power. He was wisely able to sense when the tide was turning against the horsemen and he chose to betray them in order to gain a strong ally in Diane. He was able to make deals with players to get threats out and then turn on them when they became that threat. Throughout it all he kept Cowboy close by his side to do his bidding and made deals carefully to not get into too much trouble for betrayal. He was able to rock the house in competitions winning four Head of Households during his tenure and then wisely choosing to bring Cowboy and get the 4-3 win. MAGGIE- She was able to pull together a group of sheep like individuals together to serve her all the way. The friendship was really a Cappy worshipping cult with Maggie as their leader. She was able to keep her alliance extremely loyal and focused on getting out an enemy in the Sovereigns so that they would never turn on each other. She manipulated the other alliance extremely well by getting Howie to put up James and Sarah and effectively costing themselves the game. She put her allies in front of her as shields so that she herself was never the target. She was a deadly effective behind the scenes leader that quietly manipulated herself to the win. MIKE- Mike was able to successfully team up with Chilltown compatriot Dr. Will to create some massive damage on the house. He and Will really successfully worked everyone and got them to eat out of their hand as they used everybody as a fool. Some will claim that Mike rode Will's coattails but this is simply not true. Mike took part in every strategic session with Will and helped create every plan they have. He was the one that successfully worked Erika, Danielle, and James whereas Will focused on getting challenge bot Janelle on their side. Mike had a very real possibility of winning challenges but early on chose not to as part of Will's lesson. Ultimately though, he was able to win competitions while Will was not which explains why he wasn't the one evicted in the final four and Will was. When Will was evicted the big question on Boogie is if he could keep his cool. In BB2 when the tide turned against him he flipped out and helped ensure his exit. This time though he kept it cool and was able to re-negotiate a deal with Erika for the final two. His ability to win competitions served him again as he won the final Head of Household and the game.

sunflower05 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 i am just hoping this year we don't have a cult leader, under the radar player, or a coattail rider, and i am fine. i don't mind if someone is the lesser of 2 evils, just as long as they played the game to get there. hopefully who is in the final 2, is the most deserving of the 2. i also hope, but won't count on the people that should actually be the final 2, end up there. just imagine if cowboy had won bb5, because everyone was mad at drew for kicking out diane, or erika won last year, because everyone was upset with chilltown. those wouldn't have been good finishes.

Methos Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 MAGGIE- She was able to pull together a group of sheep like individuals together to serve her all the way.

She put her allies in front of her as shields so that she herself was never the target. She was a deadly effective behind the scenes leader that quietly manipulated herself to the win. As much as I dislike her, I do have to give some credit to Maggie. She selected her flock well and was masterful in her manipulation of them. They were weak willed and putty in her hands. The others in the house underestimated her control in the game and it cost them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinCity Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I neither liked or disliked Maggie ... but she was one of the smarter players... she played the game the way it was meant to be played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
