* I can’t beleive anyone is still leaning on the “bitter jury” crutch

xx * I agree. putting players in the jury who LIKE you is ALSO strategic. NT

xx * Meh, My opinion is they were, but bitterness is just one of many factors a HG should include with their strategies.

xx * Very surprising BBAnnie.I think many BB fans who care enough about BB think this issue exposes a flaw in the format of the show.Do we want BB juries

xx * Its human nature to do most things on a personal level. So if a player wants to play by burning their opponents and making them look like fools...

xx * I vote not to change the rules of Big Brother. Maybe some other game can have rules that restrict the jury to voting on strategic game only,

Mikentosh
02/17/13 07:03 PM
xx * Because its the truth. The jury did not want to award a former contestant. Maybe Brittney over Dani or Frank. Dan should of taken Dani. NT

xx * So true, so very true ~ NT
FurnitureAlliance
02/17/13 09:19 PM
xx * Actually, Dan took Ian to the F3 after Ian gave up at the F4 after he lost the veto. Ian didn't try to make any deals on his own nor was he

Mikentosh
02/07/13 06:15 PM
xx * So it was Dan's decision.He saved his arse.LOL. NT
yoyo3492
02/10/13 12:07 PM
xx * Why Dan saved Ian has nothing to do with the fact that Dan saved Ian. Without Dan's unilateral action Ian was out of the game.
Blockhead
02/07/13 06:24 PM
xx * I'll try to make this simple. Dan evicted Shane, NOT saved Ian. NT
Mikentosh
02/07/13 06:33 PM
xx * Yes, I don't see that as making Dan superior to Ian, rather more the fool Dan. NT
Augustkm
02/07/13 07:26 PM
xx * Ian would have been evicted but for Dan's action. Dan acted and thus Ian was saved. Dan's motivation is irrelevant. Without Dan's action Ian
Blockhead
02/07/13 06:37 PM
xx * Same can be said for when Dan gave up at F3. Ian saved Dan and took him to F2 NT
Karina86
02/08/13 01:37 PM
xx * Dan didn't give up at F3. He threw the last HOH because he knew Ian would take him over Danielle. It was a calculated move. Ian giving up at F4

xx * Some of us believe that deciding the winner should be based on gameplay and not on who is friends with whom,or who already has $500K.
yoyo3492
02/05/13 08:31 PM
xx * I'll try again; if Dan told Boogie that nobody could beat Ian at the end, what gave him that impression and why didn't Dan get rid of him? NT
FurnitureAlliance
02/08/13 01:59 PM
xx * If Dan thought Ian would win why didn't he get rid of him? NT
FurnitureAlliance
02/06/13 02:11 AM
xx * He tried and BB set up Shark Fin a comp ONLY IAN COULD WIN. NT
yoyo3492
02/09/13 07:09 AM
xx * So, why didn't any of the brilliant minds get rid of Ian when there were comps IAN COULD NEVER WIN? NT
CubbyPuppy
02/12/13 07:51 AM
xx * That didn't look like something "only Ian could win."
NMC
02/09/13 08:37 AM
xx * Bwahahahahahaha!!!!! NT
yoyo3492
02/10/13 12:08 PM

02/09/13 08:39 AM
xx * Shoving something along a maze? Why? NT
NMC
02/09/13 08:42 AM
xx * A maze like that favors someone with an engineering background. Ian said he quickly figured out that each section had 3 paths and 2 of which were
Blockhead
02/09/13 08:51 AM
xx * And Ian also figured out that he only had to wipe off the names on the final comp while Dani wiped off the whole face. Intelligence ~ NT
FurnitureAlliance
02/10/13 12:52 AM
xx * Exactly so. Pure logic. NT
dustysnemisis
02/09/13 08:53 AM
xx * Ian's good at identifying patterns quickly. He said himself that it was easy once he figured that out. NT
dustysnemisis
02/09/13 08:48 AM
xx * Skill at pattern recognition is a sign of intelligence. IQ tests usually test you for pattern recognition ~ NT
FurnitureAlliance
02/10/13 12:56 AM
xx * Interesting. One shot at Ian ... 3 at Shane. Who was the bigger threat? NT
dustysnemisis
02/09/13 07:16 AM
xx * Dan wanted to get Ian out first and then Shane so he could get to a D/D/Jenn F3 and then take Jenn to the F2 because that was his best remaining
Blockhead
02/09/13 07:40 AM
xx * No Ian wouldn't be bitter towards Dan for voting him out. He's not that type person. Also, there's no way Dan would've been put up if Ian was
FurnitureAlliance
02/10/13 12:23 PM
xx * Another key wrench thrown in Dan's plans was Shane's deal with Ian at the volcano HOH. It led to QP2 and the end of any chance of a floater advancing.
dustysnemisis
02/09/13 07:49 AM
xx * Dan had already talked to Shane before that to smooth things out.The QP went in reformed.They quacked when they were the last
yoyo3492
02/10/13 12:10 PM
xx * Yep. Ian wanted that HOH because he wanted to get back at Frank for having evicted his BFF Britney. That points to Ian's DR session where
Blockhead
02/09/13 08:05 AM
xx * There was no rush getting Frank out no matter how good he was at comps. Just let him think he has an alliance then vote him out the following week
FurnitureAlliance
02/10/13 12:30 PM
xx * Sort of for the same reason, after Boogie's eviction, Ian didn't want to nominate Frank and have him eligible to play in the veto, but wanted to
NMC
02/09/13 08:41 AM
xx * And if he had won veto as a non-nom he saves Ashley. NT
yoyo3492
02/16/13 05:35 AM
xx * Ashley wasn't on the block. She was Frank's replacement when Frank used the veto on himself. Had Frank not been nominated they may have nominated
NMC
02/16/13 08:37 AM
xx * Backdooring Frank would have been the smart move and it is what Ian wanted buy you have to wonder why Ian who was HOH and could do what he wanted
Blockhead
02/09/13 08:53 AM
xx * He wanted to work with his alliance. He spent hours, literally, trying to explain to Dan, Dani, and Shane, and he succeeded. Then, the next day,

02/16/13 08:46 AM
xx * Loyalty to his alliance. NT
dustysnemisis
02/09/13 08:55 AM

TwoMinutesHate
02/05/13 08:50 PM
xx * the real point is that calling them a "bitter jury" means nothing. if they were bitter, then it was dan's fault. NT
TwoMinutesHate
02/05/13 08:03 PM
xx * I couldn't agree more. NT
Dexter
02/05/13 08:45 PM
xx * Disagree. I can see why they'd be that way but since they're grown adults, it's on them how to react to the game and moves Dan made. NT
CJinIowa
02/05/13 08:13 PM
xx * Grown adults can be mistreated just as much as children can ~ NT
FurnitureAlliance
02/08/13 02:00 PM
xx * I always agree with you CJ but I HAVE to disagree on this one. Dan played the best game, no competition, but a bitter Jury IS something
Venthus
02/07/13 10:31 AM
xx * what? seriously? i couldn't disagree more. a big part of the game is managing the emotions of your opponents. maybe the biggest part. no jury is
TwoMinutesHate
02/05/13 08:46 PM
xx * You can't manage the jury once they leave the house and get together and talk NT
Adamlovechild1
02/06/13 02:42 AM
xx * This is true as well, which is why I hate the unavoidable fact that they are sequestered together. BUT, once again, you can argue that
Venthus
02/07/13 10:33 AM
xx * Exactly. This "voting on game" business implies that there is some criteria as to what constitutes "game" that juries are supposed to refer

02/05/13 08:53 PM

02/05/13 07:59 PM

CJinIowa
02/05/13 07:57 PM
xx * They said "bitter jury?" Or is this that figurative use of the word literally? NT
CubbyPuppy
02/05/13 08:01 PM
xx * Frank admitted to being bitter and turning two others on him, and Britney said the entire JH was totally against Dan, that they were bitter. Does
CJinIowa
02/05/13 08:14 PM
xx * No because his jury management was abysmal, a huge part of the reason he LOST the game. NT
AwfuLeeHandsome
02/05/13 08:33 PM

yoyo3492
