SPOILER Don't read if you don't want to know. Ok this tasks I think are getting so stupid! I mean silent treatment why?And why put Dustin up what is America thinking? As far as Evel goes common dude stop. I am a Christiam and I don't dislike Evel because of his beliefs and I would never attack him for them so why must he do that? Jamkea has a point when Evel says"you are cursing how God-like you are" as she said "we aren't perfect" and she is right i must say I don't think I could have contained myself from smacking him! I wonder who is going to win the POV? And I am starting to think Zach can be presuaded to the other side if he is asked to.What do you think? I give Amber credit for getting clean it is not easy and i think Evel was out of line to say what he did to her about being a former junkie. What are your thoughts?

I think having Eric ignore somebody could be difficult. He talks a lot on the live feeds and if he has to not include one of the members of the stay up late group, then its going to be a big challenge. Eric would need to leave the area that they are chatting in to not say a word and ignore any one of them. I already know who won the power of veto, so won't say anything, so you will not get the answer from me. Its clear a large number of people don't like Eric. He does say a lot in the evening that many people don't agree with in America. Personally, I think he has a difficult choice to make each time America tells him to do something that he doesn't agree with the majority of the voters. Some people are voting just to make sure he doesn't get the money.

Yes as i have read from many other posts it seems no one likes Eric but me lol. But that was like that with Evel when I was the only one backing him up in posts. Everyone changes their mind,right? Thank you for not spoiling it for me or others but I wish I could have the live feed or something,I hate waiting til tuesday!Lol

I think the majority of "America" want Eric out which is why they are giving him lame tasks like trying to put Dustin up. Why does America hate Eric? I don't get that. That's part of the game and America is just screwing with him. That's just not fair. Eric did not want to accomplish his task this week, and I don't blame him. But he could have tried a little less because he found himself lying again and that could be used against him again. My daughter and I said the exact same thing about Zach. He can definitely be persuaded to go to the other side. His friends have all left the house so he will agree with anyone who can guarantee him safety. I am worried about POV. What if Daniele wins and takes ED off the block? That would be brutal. We can't have that. That nasty piece of crap has to go! I am glad Amber forgave Eric and it was nice to see Amber and Jameka keeping their cool with ED for awhile, then Jameka lost it and Amber just walked out. Good move on her part. I am so glad Jessica made the move that would be approved by the majority of the household. I think if she didn't she could have found a target on her back.

I agree with you completetly,first time lol. But I can't figure out why America hates Eric most of what he has done is because they told him too,right? Ok so yes he made a HUGE mistake by betraing Amber and that was totally wrong,but I know he regrest it now more than ever. I think Dani will get Evel off the block if she wins POV because as she puts it she hates everyone in the house. Like I have said before i have always liked Evel because he tells it like it is but now he is just going to far.

I don't think that they are getting dunb. I think the silent treatment is actually a good idea. Kind of funny actually-remember he can turn the tasks down if he doesn't want to do it. Dustin to be voted out... America is wacky and they want Eric out of the game. I actually enjoy Eric I think he is crafty and would probably go to the end if it wasn't for America's player.

I have to agree with everything that you wrote. It makes no sense for Eric to have to give someone silent treatment, and knowing America they will have him give the silent treatment to someone stupid which can end up putting him in danger. I think the votes may be rigged b/c i tried voting for Eric to get Evil nominated on Thurday but it kept bringing up a system error. At this point I think Evil is taking it to a personal level way beyond the game and it's time for him to go. I am glad they are all standing up for themselves now. Although I do agree that it is smarter strategically for Danielle to go home because she's a stronger competitor. If she goes Evel will be powerless in the game because they would be able to sway Zach as long as they are in power and I can't see Evel and Jen working together without Danielle.

Dani is smart and she did win two veto's. But I think if Evel stays up he will go out. But you are so right it would be better to get Dani out,I like her and all but it is a game. I think America really hates Eric and yes I did get the same message when I tried voting,but so many people hate Eric now I think they are just tring to get him out of the house,he is a little too cocky anymore but maybe he will change after his narrow escape from eviction.

The tasks have always been stupid. I think Eric needs to be screwed though because I HATE him and I want him off the show. I don't care if he is America's player. He sucks at completely the tasks and he's always been moving more towards his own agenda than America's. He's not there for America at all, he's there for himself. Evel definitely goes for the personal stuff, but He's making it a point now for them to kick him out of the house and not his daughter. Right now he's doing what he has to do. Personally, I think bringing God into the game is stupid in it's own right. Without getting into a religious debate, I'm just gonna say that going on a show like that where you're using lies and whatever you can to win money (because you don't get to the end on honesty and goodness) isn't a very "christian like" thing to do. In my opinion! So I think All of them bringing God into it is just crap and I can see Evel's point in yelling at them about it, but I don't think he should go all personal on them. I hate Eric. I hate Dustin. I don't really like Amber or Jameka. Jessica is still OK for now, but I'm pretty much anti-the "group" now and I"m pretty upset that Daniele and Evel got screwed because Eric should have got kicked out last week. I hope Someone gets POV and saves Daniele. Unfortunately I think they might get their way and get her out otherwise.

Thank you for your opionon,and I respect what you have to say no matter if I don't agree with it at all. I don't dislike Evel I still like the way he plays the game but I mean he could tone it down alittle.

ray chill I am confused where you speaking to me? I said that I didn't dislike Evel because of his beliefs no matter what they may be,so if you were talking to me maybe you can help me understand what you are saying.

He's not playing the game any different than anyone else. He's just more vocal about it and says it to peoples face instead of everyone else who does it behind their backs. and besides...on the religious front, do you really know his beliefs? you judging him isn't much different from him judging anyone on the show. I mean no disrespect of course, I'm just saying. We don't know him personally only how he portrays himself on the show you know? So we really can't actually judge anyone. but it's all good. Who do you want to win?

Good points, something tells me Evil is not really mean, I think he is playing a game. It may not be the right way to play it but that is why the show gets all different kinds of people in the house to see how they live together. I do think some of his things are harsh but he is getting inside peoples head and that is what he wants to do. I think Amber has come along way and she seems like a really nice girl, I hope she doesn't take things to heart in this house. I think Evil is digging his grave just because people are tired of listening to him. I'm not sure why America picked Dustin?

I agree I don't think Evel is a mean person but I think he needs to tone it down a bit,he does a good job messing with people's heads but he also needed to be knocked down from his power trip. I think America just wants to screw Eric so that's why they voted to get Dustin up.

They are getting pretty cheesy.....it is kinda funy in a way, but I like Eric and don't want him to mess up his game plan too much by doing all of these stupid tasks. I agree with you about everything you said, I think Jameka did a great job defending herself without hitting Evel, I probably would have kicked him if it was me =) He is just being mean and trying to get to people and rattle them, and it works. Amber did good noting letting him get to her either, I know I couldn't have been that strong. I would have cried or hit him!!!

I agree I would have had a very hard time indeed. I like Eric too,but I have heard that we(america)doesn't get to see what he does on the live feeds and stuff,so I donno but I guess I will decide if I like him later like I did with not liking Evel anymore.
