Thanx and see ya! :seeya:

Even though I already knew, this should definitely have a spoiler warning in the thread title. The people who don't follow what happens online, did not yet know who won the veto, and who else was put up.

Now I know who is going to be up and I didn't want to know until after watching tonights episode. You should have put spoiler up in the thing. From just reading the tittle I knew who was going to go up. I'm suprised I thought Maggie would go up. Out of them I want Ivette because she's on the other alliance. I don't think it ever made sense to put up Sarah and James. Who do you think will leave?

Please don't post threads before it happens on T.V.

I'm suprised. After finding this out I thought Ivette would be a pon. I'm thrilled that she actually has a chance of going.

How easy was that veto competition? They could have eliminated James without a problem. If they all truly wanted him out so badly, the logical thing to do would have been to use most of the candy on James and Sarah's pinatas. I realize they didn't know what the others were thinking, but why waste a bunch of candy on other pinatas? I'm almost thinking he deserves to win it if they are going to be this stupid.

Oh, and now I choose Ivette. Taking out Sarah right now would do nothing for them, except to further piss off James. Taking out Ivette would take one away from the "friendship" alliance, and also take a lot of annoyance out of the house!

OMG! I agree. I understand that they didn't know what the other was thinking, but hel-lo! If you want to get rid of someone then put all the candy in the person's pinatas. I felt they were so clueless. They must of wanted James to win.

Ivette's problem is she has a big mouth. I have a feeling she is going home.

Sarah's going... Unless something really major happens before the voting today, Ivette is staying. They don't have the votes to get rid of her.

I'd just like to ask that the next time a poll like this is posted that the names not be included in the subject line. Those of us who aren't watching the internet feed are spoiled by knowing a POV change was made before the show airs on tv.

But you could also think If you want to get ride of someone don't put any candys in so that someone else will win and they will have no candy. The person you don't want to win always wins these because about half the people use one strategy and the other half use the other strategy. I remeber last season Jase won this even though everyone wanted him out.

Before I had calculated that Howie could be the tie breaking vote but after reading this I realize that Ivettes alliance has one more person. It seems like she would be staying unless April or someone turned on her. She could though, she seemed to want Ivette gone in the last episode.

At first I was thinking the same thing, but remember, it said that if they got MORE than 20 pieces of candy, it would make them safe - I think they were worried too many people would load James' pinata and he'd end up being safe anyway.

As much as James has messed up, I'm still thrilled that Ivette's on the chopping block. I haven't trusted her from Day 1 and now the others are starting to see it. She's got SNEAKY written all over her.

Even though I'd like her to be gone, they'd be smart to keep Ivette because if she happens to win HOH, James and Janelle would probably be her most likely nominees for eviction. James is already staying, and if Sarah stays too and one of them happens to become HOH, everybody would have reason to sweat.

Only 7 vote... there can't be a tie.

Rachel and Janelle were talking about just voting for Sarah to go since April and Jenn(at least both) will NOT be voting to evict Ivette, meaning they'd be in the minority and they fear being a target next week unless they win HOH.

Brent, do you want Ivette to stay, or did you just vote for her (against Sarah) in the poll because you think it's likely that she'll stay?

Ivette is sneaky. She's basically setting herself up by still talking to James. She was playing chess with him yesterday. Why would she still do that knowing everyone is against him? She's making her ownself become a target.

I thought it was whoever got to 20 or closest to 20 without going over would win. Maybe not?

That's what I thought it was too. Howie had 16 or 17 pieces and James had just enough to beat him, without going over 20.

Brent, do you want Ivette to stay, or did you just vote for her (against Sarah) in the poll because you think it's likely that she'll stay?

I think she stays... although if I were in the house, I'd vote for her to stay over Sarah, since Ivette doesn't lie and betray people. She may be a loudmouth who needs to shut up, but she stands behind her group 100%. Something I can't say about Sarah...

Ding!

:D

That was so stupid last night... I literally wanted to bang my head into the wall. :rolleyes:

That's true. She does stand by what she says.

That's correct. If the person went over 20, then he/she lost. That's why they all should have filled up James pinata. He would have gone over and Howie would have won the veto.

Sorry I jumped the gun too early, guys!:eek4::eek3::blush:.
This should treated like a spoiler next time. :thought: Why didn't I think of this beforehand? Well...nevermind
As of now, it is Ivette with a 07 votes to Sarah's 01 for eviction.

Keep voting because you have until 19.32'/7.32pm ET tomorrow night (27'59" to 20.00'/8.00pm)

That's correct. If the person went over 20, then he/she lost. That's why they all should have filled up James pinata. He would have gone over and Howie would have won the veto.

If he stayed at zero he would have lost too.


I really hope they will have the votes to get rid of Ivette but it doesn't seem that likely.

So, was anyone else surprised about the eviction?

So, was anyone else surprised about the eviction?

Nope. :lol:

I was. Everyone quickly started chaning their mind. I thought for sure Ivette was going.

I really wanted it to Ivette but I thought it would be Sarah. April and Jennifer were not really going to betray there alliance. People on these shows ussually don't make the drastic move they're considering.

I wasn't surprised, but I wish it would been Ivette that was evicted. People started changing their minds about who they wanted to vote for as the episode went on, so I thought maybe it would of been a close vote, with it POSSIBLY being Ivette leaving (I think it was more of wishful thinking on my part) , but when Julie said that it was a vote of 6 to 1 (before she said who was evicted), I knew it was Sarah.

Yah, I was using wishful thinking by hoping Ivette would go.
