The only reason Eric and Dick are still there is because of rigging. Eric's still there because of rigging. Dick's there because Jessica's a fucking dumbass. Well, actually, the Dustin/Jen boots weren't really all that bad for her. Not booting Dani was ridiculous though.

People who know the game inside out can easily end up overplaying, which is what he did. He overplayed the first half of the game, culiminating in the Nick boot, and then he has spent the second half of the season underplaying because the DR told him he needed to work with the cool kids in order to justify being AP. He has killed any drama which was left this season because of his consistent efforts to convince Jessica that she had to stay with the Donatos. He decided that going to the F4 with comp threats all while alienating most of the jury from supporting himself or Jessica was a great idea. He cleared an easy path for a Donato F2 and also took away any entertainment or fireworks in the house (he probably thought his showmance would fill that void), and the only reason this has potentially changed is because Zach won HOH and now Jessica and Eric may be leaving back-to-back because of it. That's why I'm at the point where I don't care if Zach wins or not. I don't think him winning would be any more of a travesty than someone who had to be saved by the DR, who has had special treatment yet lectures Jen about "integrity", who either threw or choked at key comps, and who put himself and his partner in a terrible game position. So far this week he has sulked and pouted more than he has played, because someone who is not one of the cool kids (Zach) dared to win when he was not supposed to. He has a reputation as some great gamer that his actual game does not show. All his game has shown is someone whose insecurities and need to be popular dragged him down. He's not playing to win, and has not in some time. He was playing to get his AP money. He got that, and now hopefully he will be voted out right after Jess. X

A lot of the reason he's still there is just because - not because of any strategy (not even the "I'm going to hide from you" Zach stragety)

She just go lucky. and she's getting lucky again by being carried into the F4. Now she will probably make it to the F4 because she wasn't thinking, or was she?

Posts: 49 (09/03/07 12:46 PM) More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	what is with all the rigging talk? People say the Donatos are there because of rigging, Eric's there because of rigging... Is this year any different than another? Isn't part of the deal is knowing that the show will somewhat follow the flow of what America seems to want? Don't we already know this?

Posts: 3751 (09/03/07 12:47 PM) Registered user More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	Remember how Eric looked pre-Rigging after the Ambortion rant? He wanted to go in a corner and cry. Eric was going to self-destruct, AP or no AP. Hell, the Nerd Herd took their boots better than he did.

And she won. It's not my favorite strategy, but given that he survived the demise of the MRA (that seems like eons ago), and the surge of the JEDD weeks, and now finds himself in a strong position to get to F3 as D/D and E/J try to take eachother out in weeks 6 - 4, if he gets to the finals it's impressive in its own "Zach" way. Why weren't you cast instead?

My problem is Eric is he thinks he's soooooo Goddamn smart, but he's only around because of someone else entirely. At least, Zack acknowledges he can be a dumb-ass.

He's purposely hidden himself. He purposefully has not won anything prior to this HOH because he clearly doesn't want a spot light on him, and he didn't want to have to be the one to make any decisions. I guess you could call that a strategy? I don't respect it tho. I dunno. It may not be the most exciting strategy, but it is a valid one and has worked before. Especially in a house full of attention whores. Why draw attention to yourself when you can just let everyone around you self-destruct and pick each other off. I agree, Monkeyshow. It can take willpower to not get involved as well as to not rise to the bait and begin yelling and throwing fits when Dick decides to lob a few volleys your way. diewinelle, who is saying you're required to like Zach? Oh right, there's an unwritten BB rule that if you like someone like Dick, you must hate someone like Zach. Right, right, my bad

Well that's going to be the case as long as they're recruiting players from places like Craig's list. You would think that for all they went on about how SO many people would give up their first born to get on they wouldn't have to do this but I guess not.

Eric needed to keep Dick in order to avoid throwing a mystery vote that would have enraged Dustin and led to his eviction, James/Josh style, for playing both sides. The DR pushed hard on keeping Eric around, and thats where the game went off the rails. Had he left at the F10 instead of Kail, Jen would have been in a far better position, and Dani would be on the Jury.

Did Jam talk to d/d at all about the pov or the vote? You are joking right? Jameka hasn't done shit this whole game, why start now? LOL That's what I assumed but thought I read something about it trying to catch up. I was laughing when I read Dick wants her to literally swear on her bible! I suppose Dick doesn't know that would be a sin for her so she wouldn't do it. He just needs to get her to swear on Amber's daughter and then everyhting will be A OK.
