BB18: Live Feeds into Saturday Evening, PoV - July 16

Tiffany is giving him a headache?

Just to preface this a bit ... I don't claim to report every breath taken by the house hamsters. I work a real job and try to have a bit of a life, too. Plus, I'm just one person. If you need a breath by breath, every little thing reported kind of place, this isn't for you. There are more than a few sites which have multiple contributors doing just that.

That said, here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Harried Hamsters:
  • Paul is still really, really wanting Tiffany out this week.
  • He thinks he NEEDS to win PoV so that the nominations would remain the same.
  • For some reason, they all seem to have it in their little hamster heads that the PoV will be the huge trapped inside the dice one.
  • So, they keep going over the strategy for that over and over again.
  • In addition to Paulie, Tiffany, Natalie and Corey, it's Da'Vonne and Paul playing for the veto.
  • They're all getting on each others' nerves lately.
  • Zakiyah thinks that Michelle acts like a thug.
  • Michelle is mad because she wanted to take a nap and other people were in the room.
  • Oh, give me a break!
  • Michelle told James that he shouldn't trust Natalie. She says she doesn't want him to get hurt.
  • Okaaay. First, I would think James could think for himself. He's already said to others that he'd sacrifice Natalie if his game came down to it. 
  • Michelle also wants Bridgette out before Frank so he "won't have anyone."
  • That might work better with Frank out before Bridgette so SHE won't have anyone. Frank might be harder to get out than Bridgette and, although she has won HoH and PoV, we all know he can win when he needs to win.
  • Corey and Nicole think they need to work on getting back in Frank's good graces.
  • Actually, from what I've seen, COREY was never out of Frank's good graces. It's been Nicole, her saying things that got repeated to Frank and the fact that she can't lie without looking like she's lying!
  • The feeds were blocked for the PoV comp and, when they came back ... COREY has won Power of Veto.
  • He may be a recruit. He may have bunches of people telling him not to worry, he's safe.
  • But he's no dummy. He'll definitely take himself off the block.
  • Plus, word on the street ... er, in the house, is that Tiffany won Road Kill and she put him on the block.
  • He's been avoiding her since he heard that.
  • Michelle (who's in everybody's business lately) told him he needs to keep people in the dark whether he'll use it or not.
  • Sure, some don't want him to use it because they're afraid they'll go up.
  • But no one can ever fault a PoV winner for saving himself despite any reason not to.
  • Think of Marcellas.
  • It's worse than going home on Survivor with an idol in your pocket.
  • Paul is one who doesn't want him to use it. Yeah, he's also likely to go up as a replacement, too!
  • Da'Vonne, for all of her talk, is also trying to work back in with Paulie and the bunch. After all, she doesn't want them to think she doesn't trust them.
  • She doesn't trust them. Shh. Don't tell anyone.
  • Team Unicorn are the Have Nots this week.
  • That's down to James and Natalie since Victor and Bronte are gone.
  • How convenient is that?
  • They can have bread with their slop.
  • Since Corey won PoV, now there's all kinds of new speculation about who won Road Kill. Even Paulie is thinking it might be Frank now.
  • Hey, Tiffany apparently was out first in PoV. How could she ever win Road Kill?
  • She did.
  • Nicole is confident that, if she goes up as a renom, she's safe.
  • I'd say so, too.
  • Gah! Tiffany told her new best bud Frank about the Fatal Five.
  • She's determined to go out with a bang, I guess.
  • She's thinking of putting up Da'Vonne as the replacement nomination.
  • She told Frank she nominated Corey because she was told he was the one who was targeting her.
  • Hmm. 
  • They kind of all were.
  • Uh-oh. Paul has decided to play an Andy game. He got himself "in" with Tiffany and Frank, then ran and reported to Corey, Nicole and Zakiyah. Playing double agent only works if your name is Andy or Ian.
  • But, he is right ... they spilled everything to him and he's spreading the word.
  • It's probably going to catch up to him sooner rather than later, though.
  • Tiffany then told Corey that Frank was never after him at all.
  • Gah.
  • They're all starting to make ME paranoid!
  • Frank's been telling tales, some true, some tall to Corey about Da'Vonne.
  • Tiffany is already decided on the renom being Da'Vonne.
  • But, the question is ... if Da'Vonne goes on the block, will Tiffany still go home?
  • Hmm.

Making amends with Corey (and odd faces, too)

Looking serious

They look so comfortable!

Talk, talk, talk

BB18: Live Feeds into Saturday, Road Kill Nominee - July 16

The revolution will not be televised

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Bemoaning Backstabbers:
  • So ... after Tiffany wins Road Kill, who does she run and tell? (Besides us via cameras.)
  • Why, her nemesis FRANK, of course!
  • She's gone a bit over the rainbow crazy on them all.
  • She thinks the others set her up just to spite Frank, so now she wants to work with him.
  • He is so sure he was never a dictator, yet claims Paulie is.
  • Hey, like many other situations, if you try to rule the world, you're gonna fall.
  • Paulie et al (Corey, Nicole, Zakiyah) are sure that Frank's just faking it and he won Road Kill again, not Tiffany.
  • After all, there's no way SHE could win it!
  • It is a bit suspicious that Frank's been tossing the names of Corey and Nicole to be split apart.
  • But, not really, when you consider that Tiffany has joined the Frank Camp.
  • For the time being, at least.
  • Yeah, the Road Kill nominee is ... drum roll ... COREY!
  • Corey, who hasn't won not a single comp to date, is determined to win the Power of Veto and get himself off.
  • However, if he does ... will she put Nicole in his place?
  • Another mess in the house is that they're all still trying to figure who voted for Bronte and who voted for Tiffany on Thursday.
  • Winning Road Kill will not give Tiffany any kind of safety. All it gives her is a choice of a third nominee. 
  • She can go for someone who's a bigger target and hope they go.
  • Or, she could go for someone she thinks she could beat.
  • With the Corey choice, it might be a mix of the two. The girls might be more likely to vote a guy out and Paul seems on the innocuous side at the moment. There has been sentiment (not just Frank) about breaking up the Nicole/Corey couple. As for comps, Corey hasn't won anything yet. He MIGHT win a physical comp, but his size sometimes might work against him, too. He's also a recruit and knows little of the game.
  • I guess we'll just have to see how he does in PoV!
  • Michelle is playing a bit too dangerously. She's playing up to both sides. She's not that good at it.
  • Tiffany is being all but ignored by most.
  • She thinks Paulie bullied her.
  • James says he talks to her just to be cordial and because everybody leaves when she comes in a room.
  • Frank is upset that Corey seriously thinks he put him on the block. Y'know, they're buddies ... he wouldn't do him like that!
  • Paulie told Corey that, if he wins PoV, he'll pull Natalie off. He thinks that Tiffany has no chance against Corey. But, does he realize that Nicole would probably go up?
  • Hmm.
  • Paulie is sure that Da'Vonne will go up in Corey's place.
  • Hmm.
  • Da'Vonne and James both think that, if Corey leaves, they'll have Nicole back in their camp.
  • And life goes on.
  • The PoV should be later today.
  • It's Tiffany, Natalie and Corey on the block.

Wanna get a hairnet for that beard, please?

Category 4 keeps the target off of her.

At the end of the day, it is what it is.

Someone's watching you, James!

Corey and his RBF

BB18: Live Feeds Bulletin - Road Kill Winner - July 15

It's a shocker!

Welp, after several hours, the live feeds returned.

And, Tiffany is mumbling to herself about winning the Road Kill Comp and pondering who she'll put up. Remember, the Road Kill winner cannot nominate anyone in Category 4 this week. So ... Paulie, Michelle, Bridgette and Frank are off the table for noms.

BB18: Live Feeds Friday, Nominations - July 15

Morning primping

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Misfit Toys:
  • As I expected, Paulie's nominations were Tiffany and Natalie.
  • His target is Tiffany.
  • He really, really, really wants her out.
  • Really.
  • Tiffany's speech last night on the live show didn't help her in the game.
  • Now she feels all kinds of betrayed.
  • So, she cries.
  • Nicole is scared of her.
  • @@
  • Now, that's going a bit too far.
  • But, the latest is that now Tiffany wants to work with Frank to go after those who led her along.
  • Oh, geez Louise.
  • Da'Vonne tried to tell her that aligning with Frank wouldn't be good for her at all. 
  • Tiffany went through several "I want to self-evict" rants.
  • But she's still there as I type this up.
  • Or, at least, I think she is. The feeds are blocked (probably Road Kill) right now.
  • Paul tried to console.
  • She hates this game.
  • Hey, she knew better than many what she was getting in to coming into the house!
  • All Tiffany is doing is solidifying the animosity towards her in the house.
  • Paulie is feeling all kinds of smug in an "I told you so" sort of way.
  • Da'Vonne think that Paulie, Corey, Nicole and Zakiyah are running the house and need to be split up.
  • Um. Yeah, this week they are. Last week Frank and Bridgette ran the house and it backfired on them.
  • It's BB and those things happen.
  • What's James doing in all of this?
  • Probably playing all sides a bit too much. He's kind of in with everyone and no one (except Natalie) all at the same time.
  • That's probably going to catch up with him.
  • The 8-Pack split its seams. The Fatal Five had a fatality (the divide between Nicole and Da'Vonne keeps growing wider). 
  • Paul is in with both Frank and Paulie.
  • Paulie wants Frank out, but Frank doesn't really know that.
  • This might be an interesting week ahead!
  • I've been trying to wait out the Road Kill before posting this.
  • But the feeds have been blocked about five hours. I'll post a later announcement when (if) we hear the Road Kill results.
  • Of course, if the person keeps it secret, we won't know until the nomination comes in.
  • So ... right now, it's Tiffany and Natalie on the block and I need to eat a late dinner.

Morning pimping? Nah.

Dazed and confused

It's good to be Paulie's girl

Home alone? Nope!

Let's hear it for Rutgers! (It's near me.)

BB18: Live Feeds into Friday - July 15

But she has James!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Pain:
  • Frank is all in a tizzy? 
  • Who flipped on him? (They all deny it.)
  • "What? Dictator? I never acted like a dictator!"
  • He told Da'Vonne the only reason he was ever after her was because Nicole said she was after him.
  • Da'Vonne told Frank that Nicole was too scared to flip.
  • And on.
  • And on.
  • Meanwhile, Paulie has found out that Tiffany did try to get an all girls alliance going.
  • Of course, he can't nominate any one from his own team (Category 4).
  • So, that means that Frank, Bridgette and Michelle are safe.
  • Everyone else is fair game.
  • Frank did his finger-pointing well into the night.
  • Paulie told James that he isn't all that tight with either Frank or Bridgette.
  • If not for the teams twist (which needs to go away!), I think that Paulie might strike out in that direction.
  • Alas.
  • Paul is sure he'll be on the block again. He said, if he isn't and he wins Road Kill, he'll put himself on the block.
  • Heehee.
  • Frank told Da'Vonne the only one he really trusts is Bridgette. 
  • Frank and Da'Vonne surface make up and hug.
  • But that's not real.
  • She's still after him and he knows she was lying to his face.
  • Paulie was one originally after Tiffany to go. He voted for Tiffany to go.
  • So, will he put Tiffany on the block?
  • Hell, yeah!
  • Plus, using her as a target doesn't put him in the position where he gets major blood on his hands ... or something that goes awry like the Frank/Tiffany thing last night.
  • He told Tiffany he doesn't want her coming in his HoH room. He's sure she'll be butting into every conversation.
  • Then again, she just might sleep a lot!
  • Among the doubts cast, James and Natalie's names came up.
  • Now Paulie is leaning towards getting Natalie out.
  • Corey tried to convince Frank it was all Bronte's fault she got voted out -- she caused her own demise in the house.
  • Yeah, you had nothing to do with it, Frank. :::cough:::
  • Paul again pushes an anti-Tiffany agenda.
  • After all, he wants someone to have a much larger target on them than he does. Even though he's made a point of mingling, he's still a remainder (and reminder) of the Jozea/Victor fiasco.
  • Nicole is once again running scared. She's in the middle of the Frank/Da'Vonne rift. She doesn't handle the stress well and she's such a sucky liar!
  • Corey is really trying to rationalize the anti-Frank movement to Frank and why people turned on him.
  • He's doing it in an effort to fix things.
  • I didn't really expect that from Corey. Huh. A bridge over troubled waters. Who woulda thunk it?
  • Meanwhile, back in the HoH room, Paulie and Nicole talked. He still wants Frank out, but cannot do it.
  • He doesn't know that Nicole agreed to a Corey/Frank/Bridgette final four alliance.
  • It appears that Nicole is safe from Paulie's noms.
  • Tiffany cried.
  • She told Nicole she feels everybody is talking about her.
  • Well, YEAH. They are. That speech was a bit much too much and now you're staying in the house and you're stuck with it, Tiff.
  • Of course, Frank himself has himself believing that that speech swayed a few people Tiffany's way.
  • He's wrong on that. They already were swayed.
  • Tiffany is now getting on everybody's nerves with her crying, odd behavior and accusations.
  • She's guaranteeing that she will be the target this week and her people who had been behind her are now wishing they'd voted her out.
  • So, I'd say one of Paulie's nominations will definitely be Tiffany. The second is still up in the air -- Natalie's name came up a lot -- but that would be the pawn.

Their fate is in his hands

Maybe safe? Maybe not.

Will the tables turn on her this week?

Safe through circumstance
