BB23: Live Feeds into Friday Morning - Sept. 3

 

Tiffany celebrates for her family and us

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Call a Wahmbulance:

• Oh my. What a disgruntled house we have going on here.
• As you know from my last post, Tiffany won HOH when Kyland, the other last in the comp, slipped and fell.
• The Cookout is having hissy fits all over the place.
• Apparently, the "order" of HOH wins was that Tiffany was supposed to throw the comp to let either Azah or Kyland win.
• Shame on Tiffany for wanting to get a full-fledged HOH on her own merits!
• She was like a rock up there.
• At least they're not fussing that Derek F was supposed to win!
• But he is absolutely miserable, cussing and whining.
• He said he was asked in the interviews if he thought his weight might be an obstacle and he told them no.
• Um. Now, he's a big fan of the show. He knows the comps. I'm a fan of the show. I know the comps. I know I would not be able to perform well in any of the physical ones these days and I don't want to set myself up for failure in the world public eye. 
• He thinks they were going to have new comps, a strength comp geared to him. 
• Um, no. That's not the way the world works.
• He's whining (and cussing) that he feels picked on just like back in high school when he was picked on about his weight.
• Give me a break!
• That's what he said.
• But I digress ...
• The comps are NOT picking on him. They have been the standard expected BB comps we've seen before. A strength alone comp would directly gear the comp towards the men. While some comps favor men or women a bit, a strength comp would be totally unacceptable.
• Derek is also acting like the three first down in the comp being Have Nots was aimed to target and be mean to him.
• Xavier is passing along his theory that Claire was the secret HOH and threw the comp.
• Now, I haven't heard her say it, but I think Claire threw it as third so she would be a Have Not and people wouldn't realize she threw it.
• Xavier is sure that Tiffany is (once again) going to skip the order of things and put him and Alyssa up on the block when "it's Claire's turn to be evicted."
• @@
• If Tiffany had followed the planned order of things and threw the comp to either Azah or Kyland, she and Claire would be on the block with Claire as the target. It would be Claire out this week, Alyssa out next week.
• While Kyland, Xavier and Derek all fussed and moaned about Tiffany's actions, none of them have caught onto the fact that Hannah is working with Tiffany.
• They do think the women are starting to work against the men in the Cookout.
• Tiffany is definitely leaning toward and most likely will nominate Xavier and Alyssa.
• Xavier is angry that he is the new Britini on the block, the Cookout puppy dog as he calls it. Never mind that one was the random spin of a roulette wheel and he did the second nomination himself winning the veto with the choice of punishments.
• He says he wants to see what happens if Alyssa comes down.
• He's right there.
• If Tiffany was playing her own game for herself, it would not make sense to put Claire up as a replacement.
• Since she is kind of locked into playing the Cookout game, if she put another Cookout member (probably Kyland or Derek) up there, she would lose jury votes.
• Heh.
• They still have two non-Cookout people in the game and they are already falling apart.
• Too bad, so sad.
• But, without a doubt, more interesting than last week!
• In other news, they think ZingBot is due (and they're right) and they think there has to be a double eviction coming soon as the numbers don't mesh.
• Nominations will be later today.

It was supposed to be Azah or me! Wah!

Still comp messy, Xavier is ticked off
 that Tiffany won. Wah!

None of these comps are made for me! Wah!

I'm the smallest and a Have Not again?!?! Wah!

BB23: Live Feeds HOH Endurance Comp Coverage - Sept. 2

 Once the live feeds come back, this post will be updated with commentary and screen caps until we have a winner! Refresh the page to get the latest news ...

Derek and Alyssa down before the show ends.

The feeds started up almost immediately at show end.

Love how Derek is giving them all advice. 

9:12PM EDT - Claire down.

9:14PM EDT - Hannah down -- was complaining about a headache before.

Hey, when did Xavier go down? He is!

9:17PM EDT - Azah down.

Kyland and Tiffany remain.

In observation, Tiffany seems more solid than Kyland. He's moving around a lot.

9:24PM EDT - Kyland asks the others to give them a minute. Apparently he wants to deal. Derek F is being miserable probably because he did so poorly. But they don't deal or talk. Tiff is a rock. Azah has been sick.

9:30PM EDT - Kyland is down. TIFFANY WINS HOH!!!

BB23: Live Eviction and HOH Comp Start - Sept. 2

 

Good evening! I'm still not 100% here and now rather storm-ravaged on top of things. (Yes, I live in New Jersey in the NYC Greater Metro area and we got hit hard with the remnants of Ida.) I will try my best to keep up with things tonight. There is supposed to be an endurance HOH comp, so I will be covering that in a separate live feeds post after tonight's aired show.

First off ... I would like to thank JonMD1267 for providing running updates here last night during the show. Amazing work! Thank you so much!

I will be updating this entry the best I can as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest updates! As always, the real party is in the comments area -- please feel free to join in on the fun!

Azah Awasum - Dr Celine, Krysta Gibson, Nickelpeed, Rbennie
Derek Frazier - Glenn Allen, Jean from Tampa, Luckysmom, MikesGirl

Jury: Britini D'Angelo, Derek Xiao

**********************************

Sitting through the "previously on" segment. Ohh, we get a bit of Britini and Derek X tonight! Oh my, Julie has a tight little black dress on! She tells us the week was crazy and had nothing to do with the game. Hmm. To me, all has to do with the game! Sure enough, the segment is about SarahBeth and Kyland on the block.

Alyssa and Claire, in front of Xavier, mention that Claire is actually the only white person left. "Is there an alliance we don't know about?" Xavier is shocked Alyssa brought it up -- Alyssa is his "person."

Bee in the backyard drama causing Hannah to fall from the hammock and hurt herself. She fell because Derek F jumped out to escape from the bee (which they call a beetle?). Sure looked like a bee to me! Then the smoke alarm is going off in the kitchen because they forgot to watch cooking food.

The Cookout randomly meets up in the bathroom wondering why no one else in the house has caught onto them. Xavier tells us he's proud of the Cookout but only one can win and that will be him.

Xavier, Kyland and Derek F think the women need to go. Xavier can actually see either them or going with Hannah and Tiffany. Kyland doesn't trust Derek F. Derek F thinks he can win with either of the guys in a final two. Tiffany schemes with Kyland to target Xavier and Derek X. Kyland isn't quite sure which one he trusts. Tiffany tells us that she plans to be in the final two with Chadda (Hannah).

Jury segment with Derek X and Britini. The Lord of the Latrine has arrived. Hugs go on, thankfully not tears. The HOH, nominations and eviction play for them. Derek tells Britini about Kyland's goodbye message about working with a group. Britini figures it out about duos, then Derek catches on.

To the living room:

SB - Reasonable tactical reasons to keep her, knows what it's like to make a decision and regret it. 

Kyland - Shout-outs. Great one on one conversations. I talk a lot. Nothing bad to say about SB.

The votes to evict:

Derek F - to evote SB

Claire - Vote only counts in a tie - SB

Alyssa - SB

Tiffany - Kyland sympathy vote

Azah - SB

Hannah - SB

Xavier - SB

No surprises for us or her. Hugs. She loves them. Yeah. Sure. She thinks she was evicted because she was a bigger threat than Kyland. Ha. She knew Tiff gave her the vote. Kyland also knew and told her. Goodbye messages -- Claire admits to being secret HOH. Azah and Kyland hint at the Cookout.

Claire will compete but has to throw the comp. So, it's the Cookout versus Alyssa. Tiffany can play. The circus -- the Flying BBeano on suspended disks on a carousel, spin, slam into Bubbles the elephant. First three out will be Have Nots. Derek F is having problems before it even starts! The elephant has bubbles coming from its "booty."

Heh. Commercial block ended and Derek is already down.

Zingbot next week, double eviction two weeks in a row.

Julie tells Derek he looks relaxed. I think he looks angry. Alyssa down? Hmm.

I have a separate post to cover this from the live feeds. See you there!

BB23: Power of Veto Blog Party - Sept. 1

 

I apologize for my absence the last few days. I have had a double whammy of health and technical issues. I'm not going to be able to live blog tonight's show. So, if folks could do updates in the comments section, it would be appreciated. Please no spoiler comments as it is about the show. I should be back up and running for tomorrow's eviction show. Thank you for your patience!

BB23: Nominations / High Rollers Show Blog Party - Aug. 29

 

Good evening, all! I hope those in the path of Ida are safe and I'm thinking of all y'all. Here in the NYC area we will have our weather affected by it later in the week, but nothing like a full-fledged hurricane hit. 

Tonight's show should be starting about eight minutes late due to football. I'm putting this post up at the usual time but can't really start blogging it until it starts. So, it's not me. It's them.

I ask folks to remember this is a show post meaning it's a NO SPOILERS ZONE. Yeah, I know the Power of Veto comp is already said and done on the live feeds and in reality, as well as all the content of tonight's aired show. However some people who follow the show posts don't follow the live feeds. Please respect them (as well as me). On another note, I also ask that you respect your fellow commenters. While the hamsters in the house put themselves in the public eye, people are allowed to like whomever they wish on the show without being demeaned by others. So, don't go there. Thank you.

Once the show starts here, I'll be live-blogging the major happenings and constantly updating this entry. Please refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

Here we are ... in the Previously On segment. We pick up the action after Tiffany's HOH win. She is beside herself about it. She tells us she decided it wasn't worth her game to save Derek X although she really wanted to. Claire, Azah, Hannah and Tiffany celebrate with a happy dance in the storage room.

Kyland feels terrible for betraying Derek X's trust. He tells us that Derek was his own biggest threat in the game ... but he is sad about it. Sarah Beth is upset because Derek put her on blast in his speech. She's worried about Tiffany being HOH. She thinks she and Kyland have a new alliance called the Monarchy with Alyssa and Xavier. Yeah, right.

Xavier is acting upset about his forced third nominee role but knows he's safe because of the Cookout.

Tiffany tells us Kyland should be expecting to go on the block with Sarah Beth as he was the one before who said they needed to target the duos. 

Hannah feels guilty for taking part in sending Derek X home. Tiffany tries to console her. She tells her Derek is a great person and will still be her friend. Hannah cries. She's rather inconsolable.

Tiffany seems to be doing her one on one meetings. She's with Derek F now. She wants him to go for the High Rollers win as she knows he has the money. She tells him she wants him to trust her. He tells us he doesn't trust her -- if not for the Cookout, she would be gone.

She talks to the rather infamous SarahBeth next. SB implies that she will have the money to pay to play the Coin of Destiny in High Rollers. Tiffany tells her that getting DX out crippled her game. SB acts like she supports Tiffany and just didn't know.

Who wants to see my HOH room? Huh. They haven't been showing much of these this season. Derek is a bit ridiculous in his joy over her Beyonce music received.

SarahBeth goes back to Tiffany. She wants Tiffany to look at others instead of herself and Kyland for the block. She throws Alyssa under the bus. Tiffany plays along but is indeed seeming to take SB's talk into consideration.

Time for nominations. Xavier is mentioned first as the third nominee. Tiffany first nominates Kyland, then SarahBeth. She tells them because they are a very powerful duo and she needs to excel her own personal game. She tells us that SarahBeth is her target. Alyssa is on her list but for later.

SarahBeth runs to Tiffany once again. Tiffany acts like Kyland is her target instead of SB. (Lies!) 

High Rollers room opens! This is the last time. $250 BB Bucks for Coin of Destiny. Flip a coin, new HOH with new nominations for the winner, Tiffany is safe no matter what, results are secret. If dethroned, Tiff can play for HOH this coming week, the new HOH cannot win HOH this coming week.

Azah - Had received 50, envelope 50 only has 200 total, not enough

Xavier - 75 not enough

Alyssa - Not enough

Hannah - Received 100, got 50, can play. Declines

Tiffany - Received 100, not enough

SarahBeth - Received 50, in envelope 100, not enough

Derek - Received 75, 100 in envelope, has enough 425. Plays. Rolls coins highest score at the end of two minutes wins. He throws the comp with a score of one.

Claire - Received 100, got 50 in envelope. Has just enough to play. She rolls fast and furious. She has one in and we break for commercial. Back. She scores again! And again! Has three!

All are called to the dining room (as if they have one). A voice announces a winner. Tiffany has to flip a coin. Heads or tails. The HR Room winner has chosen heads. Tiffany flips it ... gets heads, she has been dethroned.

The new HOH will make new nominations. Kyland and SB's photos disappear from the nominations panel. Xavier remains as third. Well, new HOH has nominated Kyland, then SarahBeth.

Tiffany is no longer HOH. Claire is secret HOH. On the block are SarahBeth, Kyland and Xavier.
