Big Brother 17: Live Feeds into Sunday - August 30

Read the body language

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Pancakes:

• It sounds like Johnny Mac, Steve and Vanessa just might be really working together again ... until they're not.
• Obviously, nothing is forever in this house of hamsters!
• The Austwins really want Vanessa to put Johnny Mac up to replace James when he saves himself.
• They want that so bad that they tried to convince James and Meg to go throw JM under that horribly driven reality bus.
• When Meg talked to Vanessa, she was given false hope by Vanessa. I know from watching Vanessa all summer, that was just her jury talk -- she'll blame Meg's ouster on others, claim she had no vote and was under the impression Meg was safe.
• Yessirree! That's Vanessa!
• When James talked to Vanessa, he told her what she wanted to hear. He has Vanessa pretty well figured out.
• He was honest (it seems) with her when asked about Johnny Mac.
• He really has no clue who Johnny Mac would target.
• Yup, Johnny Mac, Enigma Man.
• James did his best to throw Austin under that bus, though.
• JM and Steve have agreed to put last week's throwing each other under the bus to try to keep afloat in the past.
• They think that they might even to bring James aboard (despite James's threats about Vanessa).
• They also think no way would James ever work with Vanessa if she wasn't with them (Steve and Johnny Mac).
• Meanwhile, Julia's name keeps getting mentioned as the pawn against Meg.
• Now, she probably would be safe against Meg.
• The two of Austwins who would be true target pawns would be Austin or Liz.
• Both Liz and Austin seem to be on board with Julia going up as a pawn.
• Julia, not so much.
• We have until tomorrow, but it seems most likely that Julia will be up with Meg. 
• While Austwins were pushing for Johnny Mac to go up, Vanessa pretty much shut them down.
• We'll see.

James talks to Vanessa

Wearing her green hat ... again

Don't do it, Steve!

Vanessa no hat, different look

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds Saturday, Power of Veto - August 29

Vanessa's smiling? Not for long.

Here are today's happenings from inside that Big Brother House of Lackluster Loonies:

• The feeds were blocked for more of their awake time than they've been running.
• Why?
• First, the veto players pick.
• Besides Vanessa, James and Meg ... they drew Austin, Liz and Julia.
• Oh my. That sounds like it should be good for Vanessa, doesn't it?
• Heh.
• Johnny Mac was the host.
• I guess Steve sat around and did nothing.
• While so many prepared for the Fold or Stay comp, it wasn't that at all.
• Heh.
• It was one where they had to run through the house searching for something ... thus tearing apart the house and making a huge mess.
• I'm surprised they're cleaning up the mess. Sometimes the house looks just about that bad when they're just plain living in it!
• The big news is ... JAMES WON THE POWER OF VETO.
• Did you hear that?
• Liz made a point of bragging that she deliberately took all Meg's stuff and threw it around.
• Mean girl.
• Austwins and Vanessa are very unhappy.
• Too bad, so sad.
• Vanessa thinks they planned a comp that James would win.
• Huh? How can you even predict who would win something like that? Meg with her hurt leg could have won!
• James told Meg he's thinking of trying to make a deal with Austwins that he'd go after Vanessa if they'd vote to keep Meg this week.
• Hmm. I doubt that would fly.
• I'd imagine that Meg's days in the house are up. I've really enjoyed her, but she so sucks at comps and the general cut-throat kind of game BB is.
• She's too nice.
• Vanessa doubts James will use his veto to save Meg.
• I doubt it, too.
• Vanessa wants to put someone on the block that will be a guarantee Meg will be the one voted out.
• Gee, put AUSTIN up! Go for it, Vanessa, he's so loved in the house!
• Heehee.
• Julia suggested Johnny Mac. Vanessa nixed that.
• Of course, if Johnny Mac goes up there would be the chance Meg would stay.
• Ohhh ... Vanessa suggested to Austin that she put up Julia as a pawn.
• Now, that's something she mentioned last night if James got himself off the block.
• Uh-oh. Paranoid-Vanessa is starting to worry that Johnny Mac is spending too much time with Meg and James.
• And that's where we are.
• At the moment.
• Things could change -- we're talking Vanessa. But, she has been talking all along since HoH about getting Meg out. She usually accomplishes her goal.

Johnny Mac sports a new look.

James sports the Power of Veto!

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds into Saturday Morning - August 29

Goody goody gumdrops

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Subdued Seahorse Hamsters:

• I forgot to mention ... half of the house are Have Nots this week. Oy!
• John, Meg, James and Julia are the Have Nots. John volunteered, the rest didn't.
• Vanessa thinks that if James comes off the block, Julia might be the best choice to put up. Neither Meg nor Julia seem to be able to win any comps and Julia would have the votes to stay.
• Austin still has delusions of grandeur and thinks he and Liz are all that.
• Wait until he finds out what all that they are!
• He just can't get past all the cheering he heard when Johnny Mac went out the door on Thursday. He claims there's an applause sign.
• In the evening's rather subdued Hamster House, there was no Potball, no Slingball, no bowling.
• There hasn't been any Chocolate Wars since Meg got hit in the eye.
• About the only moment of tomfoolery is when Steve and Julia tried to scare a sleeping Austin. Julia had foil on her head and a blanket wrapped around her.
• I thought of Audrey.
• Meg thinks she and James were lied about to Vanessa or Vanessa is making petty things blow up for her reasoning in putting them on the block.
• Austwins are sucking up to Meg and James.
• Hey, everyone is thinking of jury votes.
• Because the yard was still open late (usually lockdown Friday evening to prep for the PoV comp), they got all confused and wondered if this weekend is Labor Day weekend.
• Julia thinks there might be 28 days in August.
• Mind you, she supposedly went to Loyola, if memory serves.
• Liz did bring up a perfectly valid point -- Meg shouldn't be allowed to float until the end.
• While she's very personable and often brings a lot of smiles in the house, Meg is basically a more likable Victoria. Those are my words, not Liz's.
  
• Meg talked about Vanessa being paranoid.
• Y'think?
• James advised Meg to pick Julia if she gets the Houseguest's Choice chip -- because Julia can't win.
• After all, if not for Liz and Austin, Julia too is a Victoria.
• Meg thinks that Vanessa wants to work with James.
• I think so, too. At least to a point, that is. She wants someone else strong to take out the Austwins so that she can rule over the non-connected bunch and hopefully win the game.
• But, she doesn't want "the blood of Austwins" on her hands for jury vote reasons.
• If she could work with Steve, Johnny Mac and James ... one of them could get the Out Damn Austwins Spot out of there and she'd be sitting pretty.
• All are nestled in bed with dreams of sugarplums in their heads as I get this posted.

Liz in a blanket

In the dentist chair again

Ladies love cool James?

At least Austin and Liz are out of that bed

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds, Nominations Friday - August 28

Nominations are in

After continuous circular talking throughout the day, the nominations are in.

Vanessa nominated Meg and James, as per her earlier discussions with Johnny Mac and Steve. She also conferred with Austwins about doing it. Austin was reluctant.
But, looking at the situation, it probably is her best game move to work with Steve and Johnny Mac (and possibly whichever is left over from Meg and James) to take down Austwins. She's number four with them and, with Steve and JM, they're not bonded like Austwins and the playing ground will be more of an actual "best man win" situation.

Meg is in tears on and off. James is more calm and quiet. 

Meg is upset

James is more calm

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds into Friday - August 28

John's back ... I crack myself up

I should have remembered how confusing a Vanessa HoH actually is. Because she doesn't talk to us and spins her web over everyone, it's hard to tell where her mind really is on things. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of So Far, No Clue They're Heading Into a Double Eviction:

• Austwins were ticked that Vanessa told Johnny Mac he was safe in order to have him drop in the HoH comp.
• They want him out immediately again. Before the comp last night, the general consensus was that the returning juror would be voted out before anyone else.
• Steve thinks it was the second shortest endurance comp ever. I think it might have been the shortest. I was trying to do so much in about two minutes that I froze my computer up and never did post a screen cap of the comp!
• Austin is grousing about how they should have evicted Steve, not John.
• Hindsight won't help him now.
• Austin, who is NOT HoH nor is his twinmance, told Meg and James that the nominations this week should be the same as last.
• Hmm. I don't think he's in charge and Vanessa just might think it's time to gather a new troop of allies. With her gaming experience, she has to realize the odds of anyone other than Austwins winning narrows each week that they're left intact in the house.
• The circular conversations/interrogations began before long.
• This is where it's hard to tell where her mind actually is.
• She told Austin that Austin's Angels remains -- he and the twins are safe.
• She told Steve he's welcome to share her HoH bed.
• She told Steve that if they work with Johnny Mac, they can beat the Austwins.
• She told him that working together, they could beat Austwins in any comp.
• I'd say that's probably true.
• Of course, I mean that they could beat them. But, will she go that route? It's hard to tell. I do think that would be best for her own end game.
• Steve tells us (privately) that he'd like a final three with them with him and John being the final two. Would that classify as a final two deal? Heh.
• Vanessa told John that everyone thinks she'll put him up and "no one will see it coming." Hmm.
• Austin told Vanessa that she should do what she has to do and he's behind her 100%.
• I ask, "What if what she has to do is break up Austwins?" 
• Heehee!
• She told him (again) that they're safe.
• She tells Steve the best option is to go for Meg/James and then take on Austwins.
• Then she went on to talk about her Trust Test strategy with Austwins. She claims that Meg and James failed it.
• She tells them that she should put up Meg and James with the backdoor if needed will be Johnny Mac.
• As Johnny Mac had said to Julie, the conversation keeps turning to evicting Meg.
• Then she changes to listing the pros to getting James out this week.
• Vanessa made Austin feel secure.
• And, that he seems to be ... this week.
• The Scamper Squad reunited.
• They overwhelmingly agree to go after James/Meg.
• Then Vanessa talks to James and Meg.
• She gets James to totally throw Austin under the bus.
• At the end of the talk, James and Meg were both volunteering to go on the block as a pawn.
• She has that kind of mojo.
• They think she's going after Austin.
• They're wrong.
• Dead wrong. 
• It SEEMS that now Vanessa is back to being closest with Steve and that the plan is that she, Steve and Johnny Mac will face off with Austwins in the final six.
• But, of course, that could change any moment. 
• I do doubt that she would make the final move against Austwins at this point ... not when she has Meg and James who have never been close allies with her.
• I do think the best chance that Vanessa has is in teaming up with Johnny Mac and Steve. 

Will Vanessa trust him?

Hmm ...

If he can survive, maybe there's a chance

Vanessa won't get that "blood on her hands"

Putting a spell on Meg and James

Workin' her mojo on Steve

Put me up instead of James!

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll update this entry with the major happenings. Refresh the page to get the latest. As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

After recap, Julie mentions that once again Austwins can't make up their minds. Now it's into Vanessa controlling who goes home every week. Vanessa is crying to the Austwins because Johnny Mac told her everyone wants her out. Liz approached Johnny Mac about him going to Vanessa about the five-person deal. Now they're all upset with him. He thinks they have a deal with James and Meg and he didn't feel safe. 

JM figures if he can get Vanessa to keep him, he'll be safe. Vanessa tells us she will only vote the way the twins vote (they want to keep Steve). Vanessa gets cornered by Steve. He's intimidated and tells us his brain freezes. She's "hurt."

The rounds keep going. Now Liz is talking with Johnny Mac. She wants him not to go after them. Johnny Mac thinks he has a chance. Yet, they don't know if they can trust him.

Next up is a segment on James.

His friends at the bar hangout at home. He pranks his friends, too. They talk about how much James loves his cat, Gizmo ... even goes fishing with him.

Onto the live vote time ...
Johnny Mac - We're biggest dorks here, always Rock Stars. Steve knows a lot of BB things, I know gas management.
Steve - Thanks people. Cool experiences, gave Meg an awkward kiss, improved social skills, lifelong experience to remember.

The votes to evict:
Meg - Johnny Mac
James - John
Vanessa - Johnny Mac
Julia - John
Liz - Johnny Mac

It's unanimous -- Johnny Mac is gone. After the eviction, it's two battles in one as the jury members and house hamsters vie.

Jury segment ... Shelli and Jackie hanging out. Becky arrives. Oh noes, they think! Her toe is all bandaged. They see the replay of Meg slamming her head in OTEV and Liz winning the veto, then Becky's eviction. 

All four are now on stage with Julie (JM is the fourth). They all go back in the house. Julie tells them that all four are back and one will return to the game. Hugs all around. @@ 

Head to the yard. Two epic competitions in one. HoH is up for grabs. Austin can't play. "Dizzyland" - holding onto a cable/rope - that have to hit giant hands as they hang on the cables and go around in a circle. It's kind of like the swing in a circle kiddie amusement ride. The hands are huge and padded and swing them around. The last juror standing (hanging on) stays in; all are eligible to win HoH.

Double eviction next week. 

Steve, Meg and Julia out already befor the show ends.

Follow the comp on my new post.

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds into Thursday - August 27

I don't have much for you. Everyone went to bed early except Steve. He walked around practicing his speech.

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds into Wednesday Evening - August 26

Liz in a quiet moment

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Waiting for Thursday:

• Gah. They slept in. Noon for them is 3pm for me!
• They talked again of using Rock, Paper, Scissors for the vote.
• I'd still be in on that if just one of them would add Lizard, Spock to it.
• Austin thinks that Rock, Paper, Scissors would leave them blameless for the eviction.
• @@
• Damn, Austin. Take a real stand, will you! You're playing all namby-pamby. 
• Vanessa is still preaching an anti-Steve sermon to whomever will listen.
• Except Steve, that is.
• However, Vanessa did tell James and Meg that no one should tell the nominees who they're voting for and just vote for who they want to leave.
• (Of course, she thinks they both want Steve to leave.)
• When cornered by Johnny Mac, Vanessa wouldn't tell him by name who she'd vote for. She talked a lot about having to work with others and watch her own game.
• That, at this time, would mean a vote to keep Steve.
• While the Austwins keep seeming to go back and forth over the vote, it does come down to the fact that none of them really have any relationship with Johnny Mac. They do have one with Steve.
• Austin is trying to figure a way to get Johnny Mac out without Johnny Mac blaming him. Ah, blame Vanessa!
• @@
• Julia thinks white rice is made from flour.
• Oh my. I'm speechless. Someone else comment on that, please.
• James and Meg also talked Rock, Paper, Scissors (sans Lizard, Spock) for the vote. James wants a quarter with Steve and Johnny Mac's heads on either side for a coin toss.
• What is going on with this crew?
• Lots of talk back and forth only to conclude that Steve will stay (once again).
• Yawnsers.

Vanessa's new hat

Breakfast at 1pm

As always, Vanessa on his shoulder

Should be staying ...

Should be going ...

Julia and the evil eye

Big Brother 17: Zingbot Power of Veto Show Blog Party - August 26

Good evening! Ready for a blog party? We have the Zingbot ahead!

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll update this entry with the major happenings. Refresh the page to get the latest. As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

We have to get through the "Previously on Big Brother ..." segment first. 

Okay, Johnny Mac and Steve are on the block. Austin claims that's the best move for his game. Um. Okay, whatever. Steve gives Vanessa credit for being good. 

Vanessa plays nicey-nice with Austin. He plays along. Steve questions who the target is -- Austin tells him Johnny Mac unless Steve comes off the block, then maybe Vanessa.

James pranks once again.

Time to pick players for the veto comp! Austin draws Vanessa. Johnny Mac draws Meg.  Steve draws Julia (who had just whined about never being picked).

Steve thinks Vanessa might save him and wants to rebuild their relationship. 

Zingbot comes in the house. Newly Zingle and got an upgrade - Zingbot 9000 now on Twitter. To James - Meg will take you to the Friend Zone after the show. Liz - Confused, less attractive, less intelligent, less charming ... oh, wait -- that's Julia. Steve - Less cool than a trombonist who cries for his mommy? Nothing!

Please take out the trash, it stinks in here, that's just Austin! Meg - Your New York attitude is very stuck in the city, too bad your gameplay is stuck in the city. JM - 4/5 dentists agree the only thing less attractive than your laugh is your back hair! Vanessa -- Playing a masterful game, assuming that game is The Crying Game. Liz -- You've become such an important part of Austin's life ... are you more excited to meet his mom, his dad or his GIRLFRIEND? 

Liz is ticked.  

Veto comp time. James and Liz are secluded and allowed to watch. Julia is up first for the morph/Zingbot related comp. 

Julia's time is 4:45.

Steve is up next. Weird, they let Julia in to watch with James and Liz. Steve is out -- he didn't beat Julia's time. Then he enters the room. 

Austin is up next. He also can't beat Julia's time and is out, in the room with the others.

Vanessa is up. Her time is great! 2:51. She takes over the lead.

Johnny Mac next. He's out now. 

Meg goes up. Heh. She's out.

Vanessa wins the Power of Veto.

Vanessa talks to Johnny Mac. She quizzes him about his previous alliances (that have been voted out). He tells her he's alone in the game. She claims to be alone in the game, too. He offers to work with her going forward. She hints that she might use the veto, but has to talk to Austin. (So, the blame won't be on her if she doesn't! She's thinking ahead, for sure.) She does push for JM to stay with Austin. He's not keen on her idea of putting James on the block.

She tells JM that Austin doesn't want her to use it and, if she does, the Austwins will target her. JM tells her that he was in a five-person alliance last week to get her out. She confronts Julia who tells her it was Steve's idea.

She lights into Steve. He denies orchestrating it and she says he doesn't have her vote.

Veto meeting time. 

Steve - Will respect whatever strategic decision you make.
JM - A gazelle asking a tiger to hang out, don't use it on me.

She gives a short bitter speech about Steve.
Vanessa decided NOT to use the veto to save either of them.

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds into Wednesday - August 26

Vanessa attacked Steve ... for the HoH cam

Did you notice I didn't post last night? Well, they didn't give me a heck of a lot of fodder. One of the problems when the hamsters have been in the house this long and it's that three day lag between PoV meeting and eviction ... there's not much new ground for discussion. Of course, had there been a brouhaha or ax murder, I would have posted. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Dwindling Days:

• There were no ax murders.
• BB doesn't allow them to have axes or even hatchets, most likely to keep them from becoming ax murderers or victims of such crimes.
• While Vanessa is giving Steve noogies in the screen cap above, it was all for the HoH camera.
• Those were fake noogies.
• Leave it to BB to remind me that noogies even exist. Now I'll have childhood nightmares!
• Despite many talks back and forth, it's still probable that Steve will stay by a vote of three (Vanessa, Liz, Julie) to two (Meg, James) or even that Meg and James or a combination thereof might flip.
• Anyway, it's going to be Johnny Mac going out the door.
• That's even though he agreed to a deal with the twins that if he remains and gets HoH, he'd go after whomever returned from the jury.
• Liz and Julie were talking to Vanessa -- "We don't know anything about this game! We were recruited because we're twins!"
• I wonder how BB decided which twin to feature in the "initial" hamster cast. Did they Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock it?
• Julia pointed out that BB hasn't given them any more alcohol since Meg was hit in the eye during one of their chocolate wars.
• I personally think that BB should give all Chocolate War participants penalties as chocolate, dear to me, was meant to be imbibed ... not thrown about like that!
• After all, you could put an eye out with that stuff.
• Austin prepared a pork dish, shared it and then said the pork expired last week, but still smelled good.
• Heh. They almost choked.
• He was kidding. But I have seen many cases of expired food in the house over the years.
• Liz talked to Meg and James about their vote and the discussion turned to Rock, Paper, Scissors.
• Had they added in Lizard, Spock ... it would have been something.
• Meg and James wouldn't commit their votes to Steve and told him they'd let him know Wednesday night.
• I still say three to two unless it gets into one of those house votes again.
• I don't think there's much point in house votes at this time because the lines are clearly drawn.
• We'll see. 

Meow James posed

Vanessa schemed

Johnny Mac was given false hope

Crowds gathered for tomfoolery

We don't know this game!

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds into Tuesday - August 25

It's making me pull my hair outuuuh!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Workin' Things Out:

• When I last left you, Vanessa was all kinds of mad at Steve because Johnny Mac told her Steve orchestrated a five-person alliance against her.
• Of course, things are different now.
• This is BB17.
• Steve is no dummy. He often just plays one in the house. He knows that his relationship with Vanessa has been rocky all along and, more that a few times, she's wanted him out.
• He has a lot of damage control ahead. 
• He also knows the Austwins are closer with him and trust him more than they do Johnny Mac.
• His one game feather in the cap to "prove his loyalty" is that he got their nemesis Jackie out during his short-lived HoH reign.
• In talking with Austin, Vanessa has decided that Steve has too much dirt on them to go now, so she needs to play nice with him.
• And 'round and 'round it goes.
• Meanwhile, James told Meg that it's best Johnny Mac goes because he's his main competition for the kind of competitions he does well.
• Got that? In other words, the physical comps -- to James, Johnny Mac is more of a threat to him than is Steve. I believe he's giving Steve the fact that he'd win the remembering stuff comps over either of them.
• Meg, being Meg, isn't sure who she wants out.
• Steve and Vanessa had a talk during which he used the confusion over dates card about when the alliance was formed.
• In actuality, he's protecting Austin and company. He can't come out and say it was Austin and him forming the alliance -- then he'd have everyone mad at him.
• But, whether she's just playing nice or whether she's changed her mind (again), she and Steve mended fences.
• With the accusations that Steve and Johnny Mac have a final two deal, Steve denied it was such. He said they had a team, not an alliance. And, they called themselves Rock Stars because they're both musicians.
• Austin kept insisting that the team was a final two alliance because you don't make a bond like that without it being one.
• Hmm. What would you call what Austin has? A final three deal, leaving both Steve and Vanessa in the dust.
• Hmm.
• Anyway, things are back to Johnny Mac probably being voted out three-two.
• We still have a few days.

Steve, Johnny Mac, Vanessa pow-wow

Don't lie to me!

Vanessa and Steve smooth things over

Back in

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds into Monday Evening, PoV Meeting - August 24

Entertainment Boy safe this week

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Kerfuffles:

• Vanessa did NOT use the veto -- either Steve or Johnny Mac will go out this week.
• Johnny Mac went to Vanessa telling her that Steve orchestrated a five-person alliance against her.
• Vanessa blew up at Steve who hemmed and hawed when confronted.
• She screamed at him that he's lost her vote.
• Steve immediately kind of called out Austin in public and Austin could only say that he (Austin) didn't orchestrate it.
• Liz and Julia are mad at Johnny Mac for telling Vanessa about the alliance.
• Steve is befuddled.
• Austin talked to Johnny Mac and JM said he'd go to Vanessa and tell her they were all a part of it and Steve didn't start it.
• @@
• Austin told him he ought to work things out with the twins instead.
• Austin is laying all the nominations blame on Vanessa.
• That's even though we all know he wasn't going to backdoor her anyway.
• But he's acting to both Johnny Mac and Steve as if he was going to do it.
• The twins want to convince Vanessa to keep Steve as they think that James and Meg will vote Steve out.
• They need three votes.
• It's a mess.
• And, it all could change (and be a bigger mess) by Thursday.

You've lost my vote, Steve!

What are we going dooooo?

You made Liz and Julia mad

It's all Vanessa ...
