As some of you already know , my life has been flipped upside down and inside out and I will not be able to continue with the website. You have have probably already noticed a steep decline in the quantity and quality of my updates since all this crap started happening to me. I am sorry to let you guys down and I greatly appreciate all the support you all have given me. It been fun and I was happy to help you all keep up with what was happening in the feeds. At this point in my life, I am struggling just to survive now and I really can't afford to spending time doing this anymore. I may still do an update or leave a message now and again but I am not able to watch the feeds much so I don't have alot of info to write about.
Anyway, once again thank you all very much for your encouragement and support and friendship and laughs in the feed chats. I can't say for sure if I will be able to come back for season 10 or not. I will have to see where my life is at that point and If I do come back it will be full force and if i don't I will miss you guys and I will check the chatroom on here for messages and leave some of my own to let you know how its looking in regards to whether I will be back or not. Sorry guys and i wish everyone well. It's been a pleasure.

Eviction show review and a shady HOH event.
They showed a little of the process the boys went through in making their very well thought out decision about whether to evict Natalie or not.
Then they showed James going into the jury house which of course made Matt very happy and pissed off everyone else. One interesting moment is after James showed the dvd of losing the show he turned to Chelsia and made sure she was clear on the fact that her nasty exit speech was a big reason he was evicted. He said he was target because he was "Chelsia residue". Chelsia then stormed to another room crying.
The boys had finally decided to make the vote a tie in order to put the blood on Sheilas hand and that's exactly what they did. When Julie asked the girls to say why they shouldn't be evicted, Natalie took the chance to announce one last time that her loyalty was with the boys. That just made it even easier for Sheila to evict Natalie since the tie put the eviction decision on her. Its conceivable that if Natalie had never claimed loyalty to the boys in the past and tonight that Sheila would have had a much harder time actually evicting her. But oh well its over. The beautiful, golden heart Natalie is gone and so I plan on crying myself to sleep tonight. Not that it is a surprise or anything. After all, we all knew that Natalie was done..excuse me .... D U N... for the second she dropped from the box to give Sheila the HOH.
Now on to the most interesting and controversial part of the whole show. The HOH competition was the one where the house guest stand on a neutral spot with a "fact" spot one step in front of them and a "fiction" spot one step behind them. They were given 7 statements and told to stand on the spot that indicates whether they think the statement is true or false. The final question was asked while Sharon had a one point lead meaning if she got this one she won no matter what. Ryan was one point behind and Adam had no chance.
The question was basically " there are 2 prior relationships we already know about who are in the house now. There is a third relationship is well." Ryan answered fact and Sharon answered fiction. Being that no one else in the house has a relationship , Sharon should have won. However, right when Julie was about to say the result, she suddenly paused about 2-3 times longer then she paused for the other questions. Then she said "fact" indicating that there is another prior relationship in the house. Then we saw on the screen "the Guinea pigs". haha LMAO. So Ryan was given the point and he went on to win the tie breaker to win HOH.
Obviously what happened is that the last question was designed to be flexible just in case Big Brother needed to steer the results of the competition and being that they would rather have Ryan and Adam stay in the house since they are the only people left who are fun to watch as long as they are together and joking with each other, this was such a scenario. So the pause was someone chiming in Julies ear to say fact when the answer should have been fiction. That is some crazy stuff. Don't get me wrong , I am not mad because of course I want Ryan and Adam to stay for the same reason I just stated. I just feel like that needs to be called out since it was soooo obvious. So not only will the feeds be more fun to watch but we will have something crazy to chat and debate about in the chatrooms for a while.

Adam and Ryan work through the decision.
It was a long night for the boys trying to decide if they should keep Natalie or not. At first Ryan talked to Adam for a while and decided that Sharon has never done anything for them and that Natalie would have stuck with them to the final four. They feel that Sheila is just trying to keep Sharon so she will have help in getting the boys out and if Sharon leaves, Natalie will make the house 3-1 and Sheila will be next to go. They reasoned that Natalie never did anything to them or give them any reason to believe she would have have either. So they agreed they should follow their hearts and take the possibly harder road of getting Sharon out even though Natalie may be a tougher fight in the end. But they also said that they should go ahead and get Natty out before Sheila if the opportunity is there.
So they called Natalie outside to tell her the good news and she was obviously very happy and relieved. They gave her their word and asked they she didn't say anything to the other girls and to just act like she thinks shes going home.
Later, Adam went upstairs to talk to Sheila and after a few minutes of listening to her he wound up fessing up to the fact that he and Ryan were planning on keeping Natalie. Unsurprisingly, she flipped out and started going off about it and then asking, demanding, and begging that they not do that. She went over all the reasons she wants her gone, Stating also that Adam needs to think about who he can really beat when its down to the final 3 and theres a bunch of competitions between them for the final 2. She stated Natalie's the bigger threat and that they should get rid of her then Sharon then Ryan. She mentioned that if Adam can't get Ryan to vote Natty out, then just make sure Adam does and then she will happily get the blood on her hands. She requested that Adam go and bring Ryan up to the HOH to talk. Adam went to go get him but at first Ryan refused because he didn't need to hear all the same crap all over again and he feels anything she says is irrelevant because she only wants Sharon here for her own safety and that it doesn't really have anything to do with the boys.
After Ryan got out of the DR he finally agreed to go talk to her and it wasn't pretty. Sheila did her usual freaking out about it tried to talk the boys into doing things her way. Ryan didn't really budge and so she kept working on Adam. At end of the conversation, Sheila made a comment to Adam that rubbed him the wrong way and Adam kind of snapped and somewhere in his comeback he managed to call Sheila a "f*cking b*tch"!! That effectively ended the conversation. Sheila angrily kicked Adam out of the room( and of course Ryan went with him.)
Shortly after that, Adam and Ryan were talking again and apparently some of what Sheila has been slamming into his brain starting having an effect. He began saying that maybe Sheila was right and it would be best get Natalie out now to which Ryan countered with the usual argument and they seamed to still be settled on Natalie staying by the end of that talk. Adam was talking about how sending Natalie to the sequester house would effect the jury votes but Ryan made a counter point that it doesn't really matter because they will be the final 2 in all likely hood anyway so what difference would it make if they had "pleased" them or not by sending Natty? They would be equally happy or mad at them and would still have to make a choice anyway. That is a very good point and it was driving me crazy waiting for one of them to realize that.
However, When Ryan was in the DR the last time he told them he was having a hard time making a decision and they told him to come back in there in a little while and they would run through scenarios with him to help him out. When he went back in to do that, they must have played the scenarios out in such a way that it changed Ryans mind because suddenly Ryan, who was the most adamant about keeping Natalie, was saying that they should make the vote 1-1 and let the blood of getting Natalie out the door be on Sheilas hand. To which Adam happily agreed.
So when the dust settled it looked like the only thing that had really changed was that they were going to make Sheila do the dirty work instead of them. Theres still a little time for things to change so we will see.

Ryan talks to adam about his new plan.
Ryan took his chance to try and get Adam to see things his way. Adam gets a good laugh out of it since he had been trying to get Ryan to see that it was best for them to keep Natalie for a couple days to no avail. Ryan makes a pretty good case explaining that they have no reason to trust Sharon and that he thinks Natalie would have been and will be faithful to them. He states he feels bad for turning on her and that he believes they can trust her. Adam actually seems happy to hear all this and agrees to talk to Natalie tomorrow to hear her out. If Natty doesn't say or do anything too stupid it looks like this may work.
Someone last night mentioned they he thought Adam was warned of Ryan doing this by Sheila. I didn't see that but I don't think it will matter anyway because the fact is, the only sure way to win the 500k over the 50k is to be in the final 2 with Natalie. It just isn't really possible for Natalie to get enough jury votes unless shes up against Sharon in the final 2. If Sharon is on the jury then that makes 4 people who would not vote for Natalie over anyone. So that makes it a smart move for anyone to be against her in the end. Point is, Adam may be on to Ryan wanting to be final 2 with Natty but he may be thinking the same thing. It nice that they are buddies and stuff but when it comes down to it, they are here to win the 500k.
I did just see the clips with Sheila telling Adam that Ryan wants to try and make final 2 with Natalie and if Adam is being 100% straight with Sheila than he may just tell Ryan what he wants to hear and help make sure Natalie leaves anyway. It's hard to say for sure what hes going to do. Going to be interesting to see.
The last thing Ryan did before going to sleep was to tell Natalie he talked to Adam and that she should be prepared to talk with him tomorrow to solidify the plan. Funny how fast things change in this house. Nothing is still for sure but Natalie sure has a better chance anyone could have foreseen this week.

Funny how fast things change in this house. Nothing is still for sure but Natalie sure has a better chance anyone could have foreseen this week.
Ryan realizes he can only win money next to Natalie.
You saw that right. Ryan has come to the realization that he will not win the big prize next to anyone except Natalie. He is right about that. James guaranteed Sheila in a heartfelt moment that he would vote for her and get the others to do the same. The only thing that would change that is if Sharon was the one next to her. He also knows that James doesn't like him anyway and has the ability to get the others to see things his way even if they would other wise vote for Ryan. Everyone likes Adam and so either way Ryan, against anyone in that house except Natalie, loses. So after coming to that conclusion, he talked with Natalie and told her that and they agreed that they are each others best chance at winning. Natalie would be happy with 50k so she is more than willing to work with Ryan and have him win. 50k is better than nothing for sure. Ryan was dead serious and he agreed he would do what he could to get Adam to vote to keep Natalie as well. Natalie kept saying that Sheila promised she would break a tie in Natalie's favour but Ryan knows better so he eluded to the fact that she needed 2 votes and tried very hard to get that point across without directly coming out and calling Sheila and flat out liar. Ryan is smarter than I gave him credit for. Natalie is a good ally to have for the competitions and again Natalie will hardly get any votes from the jury no matter who shes up against. So Natalie has a better chance now but nothing is for sure because he may not be able to get Adam to vote for Natalie and it could either go to a tie and Sheila would most likely send Natalie home or Ryan may realize he can't get Adam to keep her and so he may vote Natalie out to keep himself safe in the face of knowing his vote won't do anything. We shall see.
Also tonight, Natalie and Sheila got pretty heated with each other since Sheila finally decided to air out her grievances and tell Natalie all the things she's mad about regarding her. It was bad for a moment but it seemed liek it actually helped Natalei get in better with her since they talked out the issues. Bottom line is ..it ain't over till its over this week.

Adam and Ryan call a meeting.
The boys decided that they don't want to be made to look like the bad guys by surprising Natalie with a sudden vote so they called a meeting with the purpose of airing out all the dirty laundry and smack talk that has been going on the past couple days. It was kind of funny watching them prepare for it because they made it seem like a really big deal. Adam had bible passages prepared and they mainly were wanting to give Natalie a chance to explain herself regarding Sheila and Sharon claiming that she has been throwing the boys under the bus.
There wasn't a whole lot of stuff said at the actual meeting though. Natalie just said that she never made promises to the girls and that her loyalty lies with the boys. What else could she say seeing as how the boys have the only 2 votes to decide whether Sharon or Natalie leaves this week. Natalie couldn't exactly call Sheila out for being a flip flopper who plays all sides because Sheila has the tie breaking vote if only one of the boys votes to keep her.
The main progress was made after Sharon and Sheila wen't outside and the boys talked privately with Natty. She was able to be pretty convincing to them without the pressure of the girls beign right there to argue with her. The bottom line that Natalie finally found in her to say was that of course those 2 girls are going to tell the boys that she has been saying all that crap because they want her out since they are scared to compete with her at the end. There were soem tears shed and in the end it looked like she may have actually made soem headway in gettign their votes. She may have Adam but I'm not sure about Ryan since he may still think hsi littel alliance with Sharon will stay strong to the end. However, if Adam gets 100% on Natalies side, he may very well be able to get Ryan to vote for Natalie staying. Hard to say whats goign to happen but tonight did show that it might not be quite over yet.Theres stil a few days left so you never know.
See you guys later tonight. We may have BabyT27 doing the show review since she is feelign a littel better im told.

Update 4/13
Veto ceremony went as planned and Adam took himself down to be replaced by Natalie. Nothing new or earth-shattering has happened otherwise. Looks like its going to continue to be a slow week. I am sure we will just have more of Ryan and Adam entertaining each other by joking around like kids at a slumber party and teasing the girls, Sheila and Sharon talking smack about Natalie, and Natalie desperately trying to save herself to no avail but not giving up because the other house guest keep falsely giving her reason to think she has a chance. She may have a shot at getting Adams vote if she plays it right but I have a hard time believing she can get Ryan unless Adam is so convinced that he wants her to stay that he actually talks Ryan into it himself. I will be watching for that and for any really crazy or funny stuff.
We may a little excitement later tonight with Adam and Ryan plannign to call all the women to the table to air out all the bullsh*t as they say.They are sick of the naggign and crap talking between the girls and they intend on bringing them all to the table and letting them work it all out and the main target is Natalie and her attempts to play both sides in the house. Will be fun to watch but I just can't help but see what is really just more hypocrisy at play. Everyone left in the house is known for playing all sides and going back and forth all season. Oh well. They are bored so I guess its something to do. I just wish Natalie was someone who had the capacity to turn it all around and call everyone out for their own flip flopping and such but I just don't think she has it in her. I see tears in the near future.

4/12 update
Last night was hours and hours of Sheila and Sharon talking crap behind Natalie's back and gossiping about her and the stuff they talk most about was about how disgusting it is that Natalie talks crap behind peoples back and gossips. Funny and annoying at the same time. I think each of these house guest get injected with a big shot of hypocrisy before they walk through the Big Brother doors.
Ryan and Adam are starting to tinker with the idea that maybe voting Natalie out isn't the absolute best thing to do here. They don't want to upset the reigning queen so at most, they joke about not doing what Sheila wants and then quickly recant it.
Today is Sheilas 46th birthday by the way. Weeee!
I don't know how you guys feel but, Sheila in power is just as horrific as I imagined. I am really finding it hard to want to listen to the feeds when I know that I will have to endure Sheila in her non stop power trip but I am enduring anyway for you guys. ( and of course I want to see if Adam and Ryan are really considering flipping on Sheila! :)
So that's really it, its just been Sharon and Sheila talking smack about Natalie over and over and re-hashing the same thing(with Ryan occasionally joining in on it.), Adam and Ryan being buddies and making each other laugh and entertaining each other and Natalie who has been pushed into a false world where everything she thinks is going on in the house is false and all the other house guest are being fake to her to try and keep her thinking she has a chance so she won't bug them to death campaigning. If anything new or exciting happens I will be sure to report it through.

POV competition.
There are 2 kinds of Big Brother fans in this world. Natalie fans and James fans. I haven't seen such heated debating and arguing on the feed chat rooms since Edick last season. Well, maybe the fury will calm down a little now that both sets of fans have lost their favorite house guest. In other words, Adam won the POV. So we all now know that in all likely hood, Natalie is getting back doored after Adam takes himself off the block. That is the plan that the whole house agreed on. Anything is possible but seeing as how Natalie is considered just as much of a threat in competitions as James, its not likely. They were both pretty impressive with James coming back from the dead to win 3 pov's in a row to avoid the 2nd attempt by the house to get him out. And Natalie who wasn't expected to make it past the first week of Matt getting evicted but went on to win one HOH, have a major hand in evicting the other alliance of Josh. James, and Chelsia, and then, in what proved to be a fatal error, could have won the last HOH but she has too big of a heart to make it in a game like this. She truly felt bad for Sheila and wanted her to get her letter from home and pictures of her son so she decided to try again with trusting someone in the house and gave the HOH to Sheila and is almost certain to get screwed by her this week by all accounts. Unless Natalie pulls out an unlikely miracle, this should be the end of the line for her and the end of the incredible tension that was seen in every feed chat room there was between the James and Natty haters/lovers.
The POV competition was done late last night because they needed it to be dark so the big screens would be visible. On those big screens was the famous "morph' game were they showed a mesh of various house guest body parts all scrambled up and the players had to decipher who was who.

Sheilas nominations.
Sheila nominated Adam and Sharon and hopes to be able to back door Natalei if anyone but her winss the POV. No suprises. Extremely critical POV for Natalie. I just hope Sharon goes instead of Adam if Natalie wins.
Who is really at risk here?
Adam has been complaining about going up and who can blame him? The plan the whole house has is that whoever wins POV will take Adam off the block and backdoor Natalie. The plan has a good chance of working ,,,sort of. Natalie is a good bet to win the POV. Whether some people want to believe it or not she is almost as likely to win a mental challenge as she is a physical challenge. She may have alot of "Jessica Simpson" moments, but she is actually pretty good with some mental aspects in this game. So the thing is, if Natalie wins POV than Adam or Sharon are in jeopardy. Ryan says he will do whatever Sheila wants him to do but does Sheila want to get rid of a guy or is she loyal to Adam like she had stated in the past? Natalie will most likely vote to keep Adam and you would think Ryan would too but, if he does do what Sheila says and votes to evict Adam than Sheila can break the tie and get him out. It will depend on how good Sharon is at convincing her that she is better off keeping her instead of Adam and if she can make nice with Natalie and convince her that they need to keep the "girls alliance" going(even though it doesn't really exist). I will be watching closely to see what Sheilas "plan b" is if Natalie wins POV and post when I figure it out for sure. I know Sheila flip flops alot so I will wait a while and be sure before I post what I think is happening. She may not really talk about it until after the POV is over and she is forced to consider it though.
Sheilas plan so far...
It looks like Sheila is going to keep her word for the most part. But looks can be deceiving. The plan so far is to put up Sharon and Adam and hope and pray that someone besides Natalie wins. She is claiming the technicality that Natalie didn't specifically say re-noms are included but really theres no difference at this point. Being that everyone plays for the POV and theres no such thing as back dooring because of that , there is no difference between Natalie being put up or not because the the exact same thing happens whether shes already on the block or not. If she doesn't win POV shes going home and she wins POV she not going going home. Sheila is using a perceived technicality to make it look like shes keeping her word.Anyway, it's a pointless argument because like I said, she needs to win POV or shes going home. The only value there would have been in the deal Natalie made is for it not to be that way IE: not for her to be in the situation of win POV or go home. What did Natalie gain from the deal? Nothing. Unfortunately I highly doubt Natalie has it in her to come up with that argument and present it in a way that will make a difference so we might as well accept her fate.
Sharon also made Sheila aware that James and Chelsia told Natalie to her face that if its her and Sheila at the end, then Sheila is getting the votes. So of course that makes Sheila a huge target in Natalie's mind and with Sheila knowing that, its not likely she woudl listen to the above logic anyway. I wouldn't worry about Sheila deciding to put Natalie on the block because again it doesn't change her situation anyway so theres no value in Sheial puttign her up since Natalei would have an extra reason to be mad if she does win POV.

Show review and HOH results.
First half of the show was mainly James campaigning against Natalie in hopes of convincing people that they needed him to help take her out of the competition and be a target for the house. They showed him going to each person and working them all starting to look like he was making headway. Then of course at the eviction he was still evicted 3-0. They also did a bit on Sharon and her family and really made her look like a great person as verified by her dad. Her dad had an impressive amount of medals on his military uniform.
One great treat they had for us was showing Matt in the jury house and what his reaction was to seeing Chelsia an then later Josh coming into the house.He was hoping to see James but was very content to see those 2 instead. Josh and Chelsia got one last Chance to show their nasty sides while watching a video of Natalie winning HOH and James winning POV.
The HOH competition consist of Ryan, Natalie, Sharon and Sheila having to be up in the air inside a bottom less box with just a bar and a 1 foot long hanging chain to hold onto. The box was small enough though for the house guest to be able to rest their back against one side of the box and lock their legs to push them selves tight from one side of the box to the other. Sharon dropped out pretty quickly complaining of back pain. The other 3 stayed up there for about 3 hours and Sheila was begging the whole time for them to let her win so she could see a picture of and get a letter from her son. Ryan was first to agree to it( since he was falling anyway and knew Natalie was the target this week) and Natalie followed suit about 15 minute later after struggling with the idea. Sharon was heavily pushing for Natalie to do it and even stooped so low as to give Natalie a guilt trip about being a christian and that she should give because of it. I was disappointed in Sharon for going there as I thought it was a pretty ruthless thing to do.
So anyway Sheila is the new HOH and she promised not to put Ryan and Natalie up for dropping for her but as we all know, sheila has adamantly declared she would never put Adam up and wants him to win or at least be second place with her. So based on that, it really looks like Natalie is going to get screwed once again. Sharon has sworn to get Natalie out no matter what so I imagine she will be doing everything she can to get Sheila to break her word and get Natalie out. Side note: Sheila broke a tooth when she dropped out of the box.
Natalie , the poor girl, is too nice for this game it seems. She sincerely dropped because she felt bad for Sheila not being able to get anything from her family the whole season and decided she wanted to do the good thing and give Sheila a reason to smile by giving her the benefits that HOH affords her.
I really hope that Sheila shows her self to be the better person in this show and keeps her word to Ryan and Natalie and if she does I will be 100% for Sheila from that moment forward.

Ryan and James have it out.
In an attempt to sway Ryans vote, James reminded Ryan of the time he had Ryan and Matt on the block and he asked Ryan what the benefit was of of James keeping him. Ryan had stated that he would look out for James if he would see to it that Matt got out instead of him. James sad he is cashing in on that deal now and expects Ryan to pay him back this week now that he is facing almost certain eviction. He said that he had never called Ryan on it and nwo he is. Ryan says that deals liek that are week to week and the situation has changed drastically since that time. James says that is irrelevant and Ryan owes him and nwo its tiem to pay up. Ryan gets uncomfortable for a bit but states the bottom line is that it woudl not benefit him and in fact woudl hurt hsi chances of winnign to vote to keep James and so it not goign to happen. James does have a point but you kind of lose the right to force peopel to keep their word when you don't keep your own word. The truth is it woudl be a bad move for Ryan to keep james and ryan has to do whats best for him. The argument went on for a quite a whiel and by theend it almost looked liek they were on the verge of fighting. In the end, nothign changed and he is no closer to savign himself.
After all that, James went to talk to Sheila and told her he was sorry for any bad blood between them in the past and that he wants Sheial to make the final 2. He also promisded her that he would vote for her to win all the money and that he woudl convince the others to do the same. It seemed prety sincere but you have to remember that it's still nto over for james quite yet and so there could be a small element of butterign her up in hopes he could still swing her vote if he can get another vote somehow.
Goign to be a very excitign and critical HOH tonight . See you after.

Late Tues update.
After James ran around naked for a while in an attempt mostly to rattle Natalie, she went to the DR to complain and was in a bad mood for a while. By the way, James laying naked was not a pretty sight. It was just a wrinkled saggy mess of loose skin and it was even hard to make out what was the "frank" and what was the "beans".
Adam continued his setting up for their pool party and at one point we thought that BB was going to help them make the party better and give them extra stuff but as it turned out, they didn't really give them anything. The speculation is that James was already butt naked, acting crazy and threatening to give people a hard time while he was sober so it seemed to be a bad idea to make it much worse by throwing a bunch of booze into the mix. The so called party turned out to be a real dud because of it. They just ate some BBQ and Natalie wouldn't even eat near them for fear that James would do something to her. What could have been a fun day was ruined by James bitterness and wanting to childishly get back at Natalie for effectively having a big hand in booting out his whole alliance with him to follow Wednesday by all accounts.
The rest of the day was much of the same old stuff with everybody trying to cover all their bases with everyone and make deals to go to the final 2 with each person that would listen.It's getting kind of old as I said so I can't wait for this to be over with and start a fresh HOH run.
The show tonight was OK. No surprises or epic announcements. Most notably no mention of a double eviction. Most likely means there won't be one because they would want people to tune in for it since its an exciting thing for the BB world when it happens and so they would want as many people to know about it as possible if they were doing it for ratings purposes. During the POV competition they confirmed the rumors that Adam threw it at the end and exchanged answers with Ryan so they could work it out for him to win. BabyT27's full show review will post tomorrow.
James continues his to attempt getting people to vote Sharon out instead of him and the house guest usually humor him for a bit and let him think that he may be talking them into it and then promptly confirm to whoever is left in the room when he leaves that there is no way in hell James is staying no matter what he says or does. Same theme as last night really.
So tomorrow is a big show day. Almost certainly, James will be gone and a new HOH will be crowned. This is going to be extremely critical for Natalie based on the chatter that's been going on the past few days and thanks to James. It looks like if Natalie doesn't win, there's a good chance whoever does win will be gunning to get her out of here. Even her precious ry-bread, Adam, and Sheila. James has managed to plant enough seeds to make everyoen question Natalies loyalty. If she does win however, it will be quite hilarious to watch all the house guest change their tune and become her best buddy all over again. It is hard to say what she would even do with all the house guest left being fairly good people and people that haven't been really mean to her or anything. Going to be interesing whoever wins considerign the people that are left. Someone is going to get their feelings hurt thats for sure. And no matter what littel alliances they have, the POV coudl drastically change things and force the HOH's hand anyway.

Tuesday 4/8
Tonight is the POV show on CBS. Will be fun to watch and also to see what these guys are talking about regarding Adam throwing the competition and possibly helping Ryan win.
James has managed to succeed in getting everyone mad at Natalie, especially Sharon. Sharon is angry that Natalie has called her a mole even though Natalie wasn't even the person who started that or even the person who calls her that the most. Regardless, that's the way that James has made it look. So now Sharon is targeting Natty hard core and plans to get her out if she wins HOH by putting up Adam and Sheila and back dooring Natty. The reason she is doing it that way even with Natalie playing the POV is because Sharon wants to convince Natalie that she plans on back dooring Ryan in the hopes that Natalie will be relaxed and not play hard for the POV. I doubt Natty will play any less hard because of that but I understand Sharon wanting to try it. It seems James "stirring the pot" is really all focused on Natalie and now most of the remaining house guest agree they want her out.
The house guest plan on having a little pool party tonight and have been discussing the details since yesterday. Hopefully the DR gives them enough alcohol to make it fun.
Ryans DR session was leaked onto the feeds. Nothing major was shown but I will add it to the video system for any who want to see it anyway.
Look for the show review later tonight. Enjoy the feeds till then.

James stirring the house up as much as he can.
James claims he will do whatever he can to keep Natalie from sleeping from now until the eviction/HOH competition.
He also plans on drilling it into Matts head that it was Natalie's fault that he got evicted in hopes that he can get Matt to not vote for Natalie. That is just ridiculous because Matt is going to be extremely proud of her for making it so far. He is already having a great birthday today I can imagine since 2 of the three that gunned for him are already in the sequester house spending it with him so James coming into the mix will make it that much sweeter since hes the main one. What I wouldn't give to see Matt gloating about it at the house.
James is bitter because he is embarrassed that someone who he sees as being much less intelligent them him beat him out in the game.
There is some talk about Adam purposefully throwing the POV competition and helping Ryan with it so that Adam would not have to get his hands dirty in getting James out.They seem mad at him for it but all Adam is doing is trying to make sure he has as many jury votes as possible if he makes it to the end.
James has also managed to stir things up in the house by getting the boys and girls mad at each other and basically making a much more clear line in the sand between the girls and guys. He managed to ensure that word got to Natalie that Adam and Ryan and scared of competing with her at the end and so plan on getting her out before the other girls. They rightfully feel Sheila will be a breeze to knock out in the final competitions so would rather have her there at the end. That in turn has made Natalie start talking openly about gunning for Adam and Ryan and strengthening the girls alliance idea.
So anyway, all that stuff is out in the open now in large part thanks to James so things are pretty tense in the hosue right now.
James has not stopped trying and succeding in stirrign things up all day and night. At the risk of beign a broken record, it will all ride on the competitions so all thsi stirrign up and gossiping is pretty much irrelevant until we see who the next HOH and POV is.
I can't wait to watch the POV comp on tomorrows show and just so you gusy knwo , BabyT27 should be back in the swing of things and so we shoudl have a great shwo review for you tomorrow night sometime.

4/7 update
James continues changing his mind in regards to whether he is resigned to his fate or not. At some points, he makes statements that suggest he is done playing and doesn't even want to try and sometimes he decides to make another effort. Case in point, Adam offered to help him try to stay and he told him not to and that it would be a bad move on Adams part to try. Then last night he went back to Adam and Sheila and tried to convince them to help him. He seemed to have Sheila and they joked about her working her magic and flipping the house. They felt they could maybe get Ryan to vote out Natalie since she is such a strong player and no one wants to have to face her in the tough competitions coming up.
So James fans everywhere began to rejoice just minutes before Sheila stated to Adam" you know James has to go now?" and Adam agreed. Sheila did talk to Ryan to feel him out but Ryan was not interested. He may fear competing with Natalie but he fears James even more and quite frankly doesn't like James anyways.
It is nice to see James isn't really giving up like he indicated. I don't have alot of confidence in him being able to really save himself but I appreciate people at least trying.
So at this point we have Ryan and Adam agreeing to go to the final 2 together, we have Ryan and Natalie agreeing to go to the final 2, Ryan and Sharon going to final 2 and now all we need is Ryan and Sheila to solidify a little more their agreement to make the final 2( unless I missed it already happening) to make it official that everyone is making an effort to get Ryan to the final two. There is a fine line between having everyone have your back and the whole house discovering you are aligned with everyone and therefore making you the target of the whole house. Better tread carefully Ryan.
Either way it is going to come down to who wins the competitions. The supposed alliances people are talking about are about as solid as a brick of slop. The people who win this game will be the people who win comps. Period. Obviously if you have a strong 2 person alliance, it doesn't mean jack if the one of the 2 doesn't win. Even if one wins HOH, if one of the HOH's nominees wins POV then the partner can wind up on the block anyway. It's do or die house guest. Good luck.

Pov ceremony and mini show review
Today at the POV ceremony, Ryan used the POV to take Sheila off the block and Adam replaced her with James. James knew the deal. He needed to win the POV or he was going on the block and thats what happened.
In the show tonight they had Adams HOH reveal, Sheila talking about how she can only really trust Adam in the house, the story line of James working Adam and crying to save his butt. Natalie , Ryan and Shela being mad about Adam possibly not putting James on the block , and the nomination ceremony where Adam put up Sheila and Sharon thereby pissing off his alliance.
James is resigned to his fate for the most part. He is starting to act a bit like Chelsia by making rude comments and such towards Natalie. He may have just been in bad mood so we shall see later if keeps up . I am sure getting booze will help that along too.
The rest of the house guest are either just chatting about random things or re-hashing stuff they have already talked about before. Nothing earth shattering going on so far today.

Mini update 4/6
The house guest have really been getting along great and having a good time. They got a topic card game that basically ask questions that are designed to help you get to know each other better. It's been interesting listen to the HG answers and even funny at times( especially when Natalie gets exposed for being very naive. There were just alot of common knowledge words and concepts that she didn't know and so the house guest and the the feed chatters were having a field day with her.
For the most part, James seems to really have accepted his fate and that's one of the reasons the house is calm for now. He did discuss some options with Sharon about how he could try to save himself and he made a little effort to see if Ryan would be willing to try and help get Natalie put up instead. Ryan made it sound like he was considering it but quickly ran to the others and told them about MOST of the conversation.
Ryan and Sharon seem to be dead serious about the little 2 person alliance but as i have stated before. alliances don't mean a whole lot at this point unless you are as close as Dick and Danielle and I just don't see that kind of bond with Ryan and Sharon.
Ryan hurt his neck yesterday while working out and has been ordered to take it easy so he wasn't up and about much.
I will put a couple clips of the various opinion/topic card game playing and joking around since that all that really happened yesterday beyons what I have written.
If it gets busy today( which I doubt) I will write a mini update. Otherwise, check back sometime after the show for the show review.

Time to start getting serious.
Ryan and Sharon decide that is next week is a double eviction week and if they win HOH, then they will put up Adam and Natalie since they are the 2 strongest. They had to have a plan because in a double eviction day theres not much time at all to decide what you are going to do. Sharon also confirmed that she was OK with her staying on the block against James to ensure they get him out of there. At this point, its do or die and whether you like someone or not, you have to get out the people who can beat you in competitions. So, everyone who really wants this had better show up on the competitions or they will be gone.
The competitions will be very intense and exciting but the campaigning will die down a bit because people are trying to evict others for the sole reason of taking down their their strongest competition in the games. So not much use in scheming since alliances and petty trash talking doesn't mean anything anymore.
I will hate to see Adam go because he is a constant source of laughs but what happens, happens. Time to buckle down and get down to business in the Big Brother house. It has been a wild ride and I can't wait to see how it all finally plays out.
Keep in mind that theres time for James to make an effort to save himself but Adam has confirmed a couple times that James is gone and that James has accepted his fate since he had a fair chance to play the veto.

lol@ splitskees and mini update.
Sharon ( for some insane reason) told James and Ryan a story about how in Oct. of last year she had sex with Jacob and he apparently split her umm private area so badly that it bled and was injured for a couple weeks. It was part of a bigger story about how that night happened and then Jacob went somewhere and slept with another girl either that night or the next. At some point their fathers talked and Sharon's father was b*tching to Jacobs dad about Jacob splitting open his daughters vagina. That is pretty funny all by itself.
Of course none of the rest of the story mattered to the boys and they proceeded to focus on the splitting part by telling the rest of the house and teasing her about it for quite some time. They decided her new nickname needed to be "Splitskees" and called her that repeatedly to mess with her.
James seems to have come to grips his fate although I don't believe for a second that he will give up trying to save his butt. Ryan and Adam have been messing with Sheila acting like they need to think about whether or not Ryan is going to use the veto.
Mostly just normal talk and an occasional bit here and there about game play. Nothing earth shattering yet. James is probably thinking through some options and also waiting for an opportunity to get Adam and/or Ryan mad at someone in their alliance. They are drinking tonight so there may be some stuff to report, if not late tonight then sometime in the morning.
They still haven't received their "outdoor toys" yet and are starting to get a bit upset about it.

Ryan wins the POV!
They just came back in side and Ryan definitely one. Natalie and Sheila could be seen crying tears of joy and shorty after Ryan came in and did a victory dance plus hug fest with them. Meanwhile, James lays in bed sulking. So, if things go as planned, James should replace Sheila on the block and James will home. Does Natalie know how to give a good birthday present or what? The whole alliance ws going to be there for Mats birthday sans Sharon.
James fans will still hold out hope that since Adam did what he did last night then maybe go further along that trail and put up Natalie in place of Sharon. I will let them dream and enjoy that fantasy for a bit but I would bet every dime i had that theres no way that will happen. It's one thing to let James off the block, but Adam has a big ole crush on Natalie and he would never crush her like that.
As I gather more details about what exactly happen during the competitions I will add it to this post.
It will be interesting to watch James make his last ditch effort to save himself.

Last nights aftermath.
I made a comment on another website about the debate with Adam and how much or little of a hand BB had in last nights events so I will post a mini update first and then the comment about Adam and the BB/DR situation.
Mini update:
So Adam spent a good part of the night explaining himself and calling himself an idiot for letting James and the DR convince him to not put James on the block.
At one point Natalie had what some could call and exorcism for Adam to fight of the demons that made him do this evil thing. haha. Isn't she cute?
Sharon claims to not be worried and that she wouldn't be upset about James possibly not using the POV to take her off the block. However, she had a long talk with him in the hot tub and did as good of a job campaigning as anyone i have seen this season. She said enough about everyone to make James a little bit mad at everybody but her. She basically brought out alot of dirt about people and made sure that James was thinking about how they could shift the power in the house if he took her off and they voted someone from the other side out.
James is already showing signs of backing out of his deal by talking about how it would not be cool for one of the others to win the POV and put James back on the block. He already agreed that it was a fair deal but he is now starting to plant the seed tha he is getting screwed and thereby setting the stage for a good excuse for using the POV.
In general, everyone took their turns scolding Adam for his actions and he apologized and after hearing from the others how clear it is that James did this so that he could try to win the POV to take Sharon off and then knock someone off of Adams alliance, he started seriously feeling stupid. At first I thought maybe he was just saying it but he looks genuinely embarrassed that he was fooled by James desperate efforts and the DR actions to keep him under James spell.
I can't stress enough how intense this POV is going to be. There will be tons of game play to watch over the the next few days. So, even though I am disappointed in the fact that I believe BB had a hand in last night events and kind of screwed things up for Adam in the house, I admit they know what they are doing. Drama, game play, schemeing, and deal making just got racheted up quite a bit by what happened last night. You can use the above link for the 14 day trial of superpass to get the live feeds going if you aren't already a current subscriber.
Post I made on another website in debate of whether the DR/BB had a hand in last nights events:
To whoever said Ryan was safe if he took the 2 week deal to backdoor Matt. That same night, James said to Josh and Chelsia that they need to backdoor Ryan next week whether he takes the deal or not. And they agreed.
I don't like or dislike James really .. i don't have any reason to root for him at all and i wont kick and scream if he does win .
That being said. after careful scrutiny, it is clear that BB was steering things last night. Not only did they pull out Natalie and Ryan ..which they never do .. they always let people play out big talks and arguments ( that should tell you something)... but they also called nominations immediately after it was clear Adam was at the peak of being on the side of keeping James off the block so he wouldn't have time to think about it and possibly change his mind.
Adam is at least telling 80% truth about the DR .. first of all it makes absolute sense and 2nd he is showing the same body language he has shown when has told the truth before. third it is well known that that the DR does that kind of thing 4th BB has every reason to do it because it makes for better TV drama if James is able to take some power back in the house.5th they pulled people out of critical talks which they don't do normally 6th they kept Adam away form anyone but James and called nominations as soon as it looked like James got him so he couldn't be talked out of it or think his own way out of it.
Funny thing how almost all James fans deny the possibility that BB steered the action last night and team Christ fans would testify it to god. Even this website is declaring it cant be true because they are rabid James fans.
Reason is that deep down inside if you are a James fan you are desperately wanting to believe that James has another friend in this house and that he will help James go all the way and if you aren't you are frightened by the opposite and are concerned that Adam could possibly switch.
I can tell you from fairly neutral eyes that BB definitely had a hand in things but Adam doesn't think things through when hes nervous or excited and the DR took advantage of that fact and basically screwed Adam with the whole house to further their agenda.

James pulls out a miracle!
Wow, I am embarrassed at my sarcasm about James working on Adam earlier. James has been hitting every angle and working all Adams heart strings. In the meantime, the DR was making suggestions to Adam and giving him pros and cons and convincing him he needs to do whats best for him. Leaning towards keeping James off the block because the BB guys know that James still having a chance to keep the fight going is good TV. I can't blame them but I feel bad for Adam because if this goes the wrong way, then Adam is screwed. So after lots of bullshitting and tears, the bottom line is Adam did not put James on the block and instead he put Sheila and Sharon on.
The idea in Adams head is that James could win the POV either way so how about NOT put him on the block and then if James does win the POV then James is not mad at him and Adam could be safer next week. James swears that he will not use the POV if he wins it so the nominations will remain the same and he thereby proves his ability to be trusted. ( part of James tears earlier to Adam while working him was based on how sad he is that theres no one who will trust him.. give me a break) Then if anyone else wins they are supposed to take someone down and James goes back on the block to be evicted. Adam states that if James doesn't win POV he goes home. Which would have been the same thing if he was on the block but now with one major exception:
If James wins the POV he can now take Sharon off the block which would force Adam to put up one of his crew leaving 2 people from his crew on the block. Then James and Sharon can vote out whoever they wish since they will have the numbers in the vote. It would be stupid for James not to use the veto to save Sharon and effectively "flip" the house suddenly and shift power.
Not surprisingly, Sheila is livid with Adam and really his whole alliance is mad at him for possibly saving the main person they were all gunning for.
Adam truly believes James will keep his word and not take Sharon off the block if he wins but again , even through James gave his famous word, it would be stupid for James not to take Sharon off.
Maybe James will shock the house and win the POV but not use it and thereby prove he is really trustworthy. Even if that happens , Adams alliance is still going to be mad at him for screwing up so bad and will have trouble trusting him.
Still possible is James will not win the POV and either the nominations remain the same and Sharon goes home or Sheila or Sharon get replaced by James and then James goes home.
Going to be a very exciting POV competition.
As of the time of this writing Adam has suddenly realized what a stupid mistake he just made and is seriously regretting his decision. He blames it on James getting to him with the fake tears , his own stupidity and the DR swaying him.

Mini update 4/3
Random chit chat in the morning.
The food comp was today and some of it was randomly shown on the feeds. Alot of wetness, mashed potato like substance all over the players and very slippery. Adam got cut at some point. They wound up winning breads and pastas, meat and fish, the outdoor grill, snacks and desserts and I thought I heard something about outdoor toys.
James later tried desperately to work Adam by saying he has never done anything to him and he has repeatedly tried to work with Adam and Adam seems to always refuse. Funny thing is when James said this, he said something like " I always try to work with you and always say no... I guess I should take the hint" Adam just nodded in agreement ha ha. James has a habit of begging, pleading and THREATENING in the same sentence when hes trying to garner support from people. He likes to throw in the fact that he will be gunning for people next week right after he begs for mercy. Pretty stupid strategy because the house guest always notice him doing that and don't appreciate it.
We can expect some seriously mental game play tonight mainly from James since the Nominations are tomorrow. I am still not feeling well so I don't know if i will be in the feed chats much tonight but I will still have the feeds on and so will of course will work on an update for you guys tonight.

Show review brought to you by BabyT27.. 4/2
And here starts another live eviction show. This week is probably the first week that I have no idea who might be going home. Things have been a little topsy turvy all week, with secret alliances and private deals. Sharon seems pretty confident in her position in the house. She truly believes that Josh is going home, even though he is her best friend in the house. Likewise, Josh is just as confident he is staying in the house, counting on Ryan and James vote with Natalie promising him to keep him in an event of a tie.
Natalie prays there isn’t a 2-2; she doesn’t want to be the executioner and in turn put a target on her back. Makes sense because Sharon would avenge Josh and vice versa. Each day I watch things unfold and play out, I really believe that Natalie is a lot smarter then we all give her credit for even with her 27 letter alphabet.
I think Josh is using Big Brother to land a spot on a soap opera, or as my grandmother would call them “My Stories” lol. He is forever “acting” in the house and he’s pretty good at it, convincing Adam that he’s breaking down and is weak. Josh of course is trying to get the pity vote by pretending that he is going to eat while he cries REAL tears. He almost has Adam in tears as well. This might just work in Josh’s favor, or blow up in his face. Adam almost promises Josh his vote, but has worded it in a way where he hasn’t promised a thing.
Girl talk in the HOH room Natalie and Sharon talking about Josh and Natalie tells Sharon about Josh pretty much throwing her under the bus. Sharon is all surprised by this, the question is does she believe it? It looks like we have a new alliance “girl” alliance forming as they call Sheila in the room. The inform Sheila that James and Josh are trying to stay in the house together, and are trying to get the other guys in the house to flip on Sharon. Sheila I think is more upset about Josh playing Sharon, then about the house flipping and keeping Josh. Sharon’s eyes finally open and she’s not feeling bad for Josh anymore. She can play for herself and not have the weight of a bipolar prancing male princess on her shoulders. Girl Power!! The house will soon be a battle of the sexes!
We have some smart game play going on with Nat and Ryan, trying to play out different scenarios for whomever wins HOH after the eviction. Scheming seems to be something Natalie is good at and making Josh think he’s staying is the latest scheme. With all this back and forth about who’s staying and who’s going really is getting in my head and I have no clue at this point what’s going on.
Sharon plays all of her cards right, and is very trustworthy in this game. Her choosing to switch sides and align with Nat, Adam, Ryan and Sheila is the best thing she could have done. Now if Josh is the one evicted the ENTIRE house is against James, and maybe just maybe James will finally run out of lives. I like pink, but that’s one pink I can go without seeing for a while.
The houseguest outburst with screams and claps as Julie says Hello, Surprise Surprise Julie these houseguest really love you, might just be because she is from the “outside” world. Julie promptly addresses Sheila and asks her about the confrontation between her and James and what her thoughts were about James after the pep talk he gave her at the Veto meeting. Sheila simply states that James is highly intelligent and is playing a very smart game.
James admits giving the pep talk to Sheila because Sheila pumped him up before the competition, even though right after she went behind his back. I guess everyone deserves to be forgiven, and since James is now alone in the house he needs to get on peoples good side.
Baller is so funny, makes me laugh. “What do you want from me now” he says to Julie when she focus’ her attention to him. Julie asks why he might think there is so much emotion around him and how does he stay so calm. Adam being the big man he is admits to getting teary eyed when Nat was reading her letter and when Josh was breaking down (which we all know was an act). He wants to make sure everyone is happy. Well Baller I’m happy when I watch you and that’s all that matters!
For the first time this season Julie addresses Josh (and Josh makes that very clear). She wants to know what kind of struggles he has faced being on the block against his best friend in the house. He claims it really hard to campaign against such a good friend. With knowing each others deepest darkest secrets and not using them against each other it’s very hard. He says he does not want to stoop that low and he doesn’t mind taking other people in the house down but with her he just cant do it. I really wonder what’s going through Sharon’s head at this moment knowing how he threw her under the bus all week. Sharon still loves him to death.
We finally get to find out what Joshes parents think of his behavior in the house. This should be interesting. His mom says he has always been the life of the party, trying to make everybody laugh. She has never seen the outbursts that Josh has had in the house and admits to wanting to ring his neck because of them. Its hard to believe his mom has never heard him cuss but who knows. Its official, his parents feel his behavior is embarrassing. Josh grew up having girlfriends, playing sports and helping the elders and when he came out to his parents about being gay they totally accepted him, which is great because I can only imagine how hard it would be to tell my parents if I was gay.
Julie chats a bit with Natalie in the HOH room about her missing Matty and looking at his picture. Natalie responds by telling Julie she’s thinking about the memories and all the good times. Then Julie asks a question we all really want to know the answer to “How do you think Matt felt when he saw Chelsea walk through the door?” Me personally I think they are banging like bunnies but who am I to say. Nat thinks Matt was ecstatic to see Chelsea because she promised him her vote and then went back on her word. Its kind of funny watching Natalie still play the game for Matt even though he’s gone. Natalie trusts Matt even though he’s not her boyfriend so in her words “it’s okay and she will probably try to do something just to spite me”. Natalie tells Julie that Ryan is her closest allay because he is a very nice guy and Nat has voted him out 3 times already and he still trusts her. They end their conversation with brief discussion about Natalie’s letter from home and Natalie confesses that when she was little God used to talk to her and tell her she was the glue for the family, that she’s going to be the one to hold the family together.
I hate to agree with Josh but when he says that this is the most dysfunctional family on TV you have no choice.
Well its time to find out who will be evicted from the Big Brother house, the houseguests are going into the diary room 1 at a time to cast their votes and im still not quite sure which way it will go. Guess I am about to find out huh!
Sheila is the first to vote, and she votes to evict Josh.
Ryan betrays his secret alliance and votes to evict Josh.
Adam, despite the tears and attempts by Josh he votes to evict Josh.
James having Josh as his only friend in the house votes to evict Sharon.
Well there you have it Josh has been evicted and gives an inspiring speech to the house guests (I think last weeks HOH comp question got to him when he was told Natalie would give a more inspiring speech and he had to prove America wrong). He throws in his full name and I’m almost positive to make sure acting scouts know who he is.
At this point I have to say I’m sorry, it is 1 am and I need to be somewhere very early in the morning, which I do have to be well rested for. I will not be doing my HOH comp play by play at this time. I will add it tomorrow but to tide you all over until then ill tell you Adam wins HOH. WAY TO GO BALLER!!! Everyone knows he’s my favorite houseguest and I’m so excited about him winning.
Natalie prays there isn’t a 2-2; she doesn’t want to be the executioner and in turn put a target on her back. Makes sense because Sharon would avenge Josh and vice versa.

Well there you have it Josh has been evicted and gives an inspiring speech to the house guests (I think last weeks HOH comp question got to him when he was told Natalie would give a more inspiring speech and he had to prove America wrong). He throws in his full name and I’m almost positive to make sure acting scouts know who he is.
At this point I have to say I’m sorry, it is 1 am and I need to be somewhere very early in the morning, which I do have to be well rested for. I will not be doing my HOH comp play by play at this time. I will add it tomorrow but to tide you all over until then ill tell you Adam wins HOH. WAY TO GO BALLER!!! Everyone knows he’s my favorite houseguest and I’m so excited about him winning.

Show review brought to you by BabyT27..
James starts the show by complaining about being on the block week after week. What does he expect, going back on his word like he did? James feels like he is isolated from the house. Which I can see that he is, Josh and Sharon will flip on him in a second just to save themselves.
Sheila makes a big Booboo letting it slip for James to hear that everyone wants James out of the house, and then faces a screaming match with James. James confronts Sheila about being a two-faced bitch. These guys are really going at it. James almost seems like he’s about to cry.
I could sit here and go on and on and quote the show but really its just 15 minutes of James crying and bitching because his only chance to stay is by winning the POV. Well James someone new is in the same position every week get over it.
Its time to pick the players for the Veto Competition lets find out who’s playing.
Natalie – Houseguest Choice, Ryan
Josh – Sheila
James – Sharon
Host – the one and only A Baller, gosh I wish she would have picked someone else (kidding I love Baller)
Lets go meet Baller at the back door.
The Houseguests walk outside and there is so many “random” things around the back yard. Looks like a numbers competition to me, lets find out.
“Welcome to the Big Brother Boardwalk, where you will find crazy objects from Big Brother past and present that are here to test your confidence. To earn a point Big Brother will ask you a question about an item in the yard. The answer is always an amount. You will write down what you think is the correct amount and reveal your answer to everyone. After seeing each person answer you now have 2 choices, to stay or to fold. If you fold you can not earn a point for that item but you are still in the game and may continue when the next question is asked but if you have confidence in your answer you can stay in the game and go for the point. If your answer is closer then any other players the states you win the point.. If you stay and your answer is furthest from the answer your are eliminated from the competition. No risk no reward. The first player to earn 3 points wins the Power of Veto. Its time to see what the first item is on the Big Brother Boardwalk.

James wins the Power of Veto
Wow the third week in a row that James wins the POV. You think he might break Janelle’s record of winning 7 power of veto’s? Time will soon tell because its looking like James will be put up week after week, therefore guaranteeing him to play in the competitions. It will be fun to watch just got much push James really has in himself. Josh on the other hand is so upset because he feels that he will be going to sequester this week, and just wants to be left alone. He then breaks down and actually cries. I guess he regrets everything he has done to the houseguests in the house.
Natalie then tells Sharon that she has to put her up (duh!). They just cant believe James, and ask how many lives does this guy have. Lets assume he’s a cat and has 9 lives, 4 down 5 more to go? Its sad seeing Sharon cry.
Ryan is so pissed at himself because he had the competition and blew it. This is their worst nightmare, and I believe they really don’t want to send Joshua home; he hasn’t been so bad lately. Josh and Sharon are really taking it hard, and even have Sheila crying.
OMG revelation, Josh realizes he really doesn’t have to go home but that means he has to throw Sharon under the bus. He talks with Natalie, trying to convince her he is her friend. He says put Sharon up, and he’s not going to campaign against her and tries to make a deal. He says he is only asking for one more week. He convinces Natalie to promise that if Josh gets a 2-2 tie and Natalie has to break the tie she will vote him to stay. While all this is happening, Sheila is consoling Sharon in the bathroom, if she only knew what Josh was doing in the HOH room. Josh starts trying to sway for votes, Looks like Josh’s secret alliance is about to pay off and gets Ryan on Board. With what looks like its going to be James and Ryan voting to keep Josh lets see if Nat keeps her word. Poor Sharon still crying.
James is excited about confronting his competitors in the Veto Meeting. Josh gives a speech saying he does not deserve the veto to be used on him. James of course uses the power of veto on himself stating that the house is collectively trying to get him out and once again collectively they failed. Every week he is battling for his life unlike other people in the house, he goes out and realizes if he doesn’t win he is going home. He says, whether he leaves next week or not he has had experiences far surpassing anyone left in the house. He gives Sheila a pep talk, saying he wants her to succeed and win a competition. He tell her that the people who she thinks are surrounding you might be against her next week so its important that she wins a competition and he wants her to prevail. Sounds to me like James is trying to get in good with Sheila and maybe start an alliance.
Natalie replaces James with Sharon, and we all know why because she has to keep her side of the house safe.
Sheila is really inspired by James’ speech. Maybe she will win some competitions now.
Sheila makes a big Booboo letting it slip for James to hear that everyone wants James out of the house, and then faces a screaming match with James. James confronts Sheila about being a two-faced bitch. These guys are really going at it. James almost seems like he’s about to cry.

News flash!..Josh is a prick...
Josh overheard Sheila making a HUGE mistake in Joshes eyes. You aren't going to believe this but Sheila actually had the nerve to butt into someone elses business in the house !! omg!! Instead of minding her own business and just crossing her fingers hoping everything in the house works out to her benefit, she actually dared to try and campaign to get things to go her way. What is she thinking? Does she think shes a game where you are suppose to do everything in your power to get people who are a threat evicted from the house so that you have a chance to 500k or something? Oh wait..that's right .. SHE IS!
Josh is a moron and started attacking Sheila with the justification that she is supposed to be "minding her own business" and that campaigning against Josh is "not her fight" He was dead serious too. He seriously claimed that Sheila has no business ever trying to butt into the business of swaying votes to get a particular person voted out. He was saying she was in the wrong for doing that and that is why it is OK for him to attack her. I don't think I even have to say anymore about this.
I will say this one last thing though. You guys know the game and you can figure it out. He scared of her and when he heard her campaigning against him he freaked out because he knows her reputation for having the ability to sway peoples decisions. I can't blame him for being scared and wanting to save himself, but he seriously tried to say she was in the wrong for trying to get someone out who had attacked her in the past and is a threat. I will put a clip or 2 up after the show so you can see for yourself.

Mini Update 4/1
Natalie must be pretty confident that Josh will be voted out because she is swearing to God that she will vote to keep Josh if she has to break a tie. I know she has reason to believe that everyone is on board with shocking Josh at the vote and getting him out of here but you never know what secret deals or alliances are going on behind your back. Now that she has taken it so far as to swear on the bible that she will break the tie in Joshes favor, I don't see her being able to go back on that word. Not because I care about her screwing Josh over. He deserves it. But because she is trying hard to take her Christianity seriously and she would be overwhelmed with guilt if she did it. It is hard to say whether it was stupid or not to even go there but she is trying to cover her butt if somehow it was a majority vote to keep Josh. I suppose she doesn't think for a second that it will be a tie. She thinks its going to go as planned and Josh will be voted out 3-1 or if it's a flip than it will be 4-0 the other way and she wants it to look like she was all for it the whole time in hopes of having less of a target on her back. Gonna be rough if she gets stuck in a tie situation though.
Not much else going on except the house guest getting called into the DR to say their goodbyes. Ryan and Adam are still giving Sheila a hard time whenever they get the chance.
See you all tonight after the show.

Just chiming in.
I'm not being lazy, there is just really nothing going on. It was so boring last night that BB gave the HG playing cards finally and some other little games/arts and crafts. Sharon and Ryan played the card game called "speed" for a while. I love that game.
In the game speed, you are in a race against the other person to put cards down on top of the 2 face up cards on the table in consecutive order ( up or down). As you use one or more cards in your hand you can pick up another from your draw stack to keep 5 cards in your hand at all times. You do this until you are the first to use all the cards in your hand and draw stack. To set the game up , you deal 5 cards to each persons hand and, on the table, you stack 5 cards in a pile face down ..to the right of that you put a single card face down to be flipped face up when you start the game, then another next to that for same purpose and then 5 more cards face down. the 2 cards that you flip to start the game will be the live play cards and where the action is. The rest of the cards you split evenly between both players for the players to draw from as they use a card or cards from their hand. As you are placing cards on the live face up cards that are on the table ( for example, if there is a 5 and a j face up .. you can put a 4 or a 6 on the 5 card .. or a 10 or a queen on the jack ..etc...) you are basically trying to beat each other to the punch getting your consecutive card down before the other player uses it. If at any point both players have 5 cards in their hand but don't have any cards that are consecutive with the 2 face up cards in play , then you agree to flip one card each from the 2 stacks of 5 you made during set up. then it continues. It is a really fun and fast paced game once you get used to it.
Yes, it is so slow in the house right now that I have taken the time to explain a card game just to have something to write about. ( plus I really love that game)
So, just some game playing and chit chat. James was up pretty late talking to himself and playing games by himself. When I woke up, he looked like he had never went to bed and was still mumbling to himself about how lame he thinks the other house guest are.
Today at 9:00pm est. it should be a pretty fun show to watch since they should be showing all the various pranks that BB and the HG played over the weekend. If you can't wait to see them on the show , I have most of them in clip form on the youtube video system above.
If things pick up today, I may have a mini update later. If not, look forward to our new show reviewer BabyT27 giving as all the funny details of today's April fools day/POV comp show tonight. Good luck and have fun with any pranks you try to pull today!
