RPeeteRules Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Jordan $22 Kyle $12 Bayleigh $12 Wes $25 Bear $20 I don’t like that I’m not using close to the $100. I feel that Bear is being shown a lot recently on interviews. Bayleigh has been shown more than she normally would, since Swaggy is in the game. I figure she may get shown more since it’s a men’s elimination week and she’ll want to help out Swaggy. Jordan is a must and Wes has been shown a lot. Kyle makes awesome tv and is shown quite a bit, but may be the guy replaced if you want to get closer to $100. Putting in Nelson instead wouldn’t be a bad pick.

One of them was to have a "box" that you could plug into your tv, select a movie, and D/L it overnight (I want to say via a modem, but I could be mistaken). They decided while neat, people would more likely want on demand options and scrapped the plan. Got to give them credit. Really hard to not be first to market and opt to have your first offering a more desirable solution (and thus, a better first impression) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RPeeteRules Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Loved the episode tonight, had quite a lot of laughs during it. I really hate Josh, and always have, even from when he was on Big Brother. He always plays the victim, but will try to dish it out, but then try to play the victim if he’s called out on it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerpat Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 When did Jordan switch from being competitive to being a dick. Was discussing with wife how much we used to love him and now he’s intolerable. Also. LOLOL Kayla you skank also is Josh getting free pass because no one wants to waste throwing him in and are waiting for him to be voted in so they can choose to face him?

I kinda think Jordan has always been a dick, he has some charm to him though so I think he does a good job of masking it/hiding it behind how competitive and skilled he is at this game. To go back to last season when Jordan won a tug of war contest with one hand, and the sledge hammer elimination as well - I remember thinking then "he def is a dick, but you have to respect how he does this crap with one hand" - re: last nights elimination these guys saw an opening and had to take it. And as Wes said you sorta feel bad, but then recall who this guy is and how he acts around the house and then ya dont as much. Jordan dope things top of my head: told Jemmye she looked like she has down syndrome back when she was still invited to these things instigated fights with Turbo last season bc he was kicking props from the set/daily challenge instigated argument with Wes this season bc Nelson and Corey had the turf uneven after running on it Alright that's all I can come up with for now haha. But he also had bad beef with Nia from his Real World season too I recall, where she like sought out a gangsta from Portland she could pay to jump him, and then never went through with it. He def rubs people the wrong way, but that's why he's perfect for this game. Hopefully he keeps doing it and him and Tori aren't gonna do the happy family ride off into the sunset angle soon and want to be left alone. Oh and re: Josh yeah I would think thats most likely the mindset. These shows always tend to minimize the strategy to promote the drama so we miss out a lot on how the game works sometimes. I guess depending on who is in the tribunal, they can nominate people they think they can beat obviously, but in terms of the Wes/Josh rivalry and why didn't they go that way this week, there was just bigger fish to fry with wanting to get Jordan out first I guess. Had Jordan not been around maybe Wes says let me take out Josh here, or Bananas says the same re: someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
