April 13, 20178 yr Ika's game kind of reminds me of DaVonne's last year in BB18. She's straddling both sides of the house, is seemingly in alliances with everyone and changes her mind on who is her target each day as well as getting overemotional at moments that may hurt her game.
April 13, 20178 yr Ika is definitely very Da'vonne, right down to playing it better the second time but just being a bit too volatile for this format. It's definitely that which will serve to be her undoing and it won't be very far away either I'd imagine. For me: 01 Ika (as I said, by far the best to watch plus whilst her game is volatile she's one of those who'd take a shot at Bruno and Neda and really spice things up) 02 Neda (complete and utter bitch but good to watch with it, and as Aaron said she is playing the game it's just a shame she's taken out or masterminded taking out the likes of Dallas and Cassandra far too early) 03 Karen (such a queen, I'd love her to win an HOH because I think she'd actually take a shot at Bruno and Kevin!) 04 Demetres (Aaron sums it up, he's nice to look at, a bit dense, but likeable) 05 Kevin (yeah he's playing the same game as last time but he is such a good player and fit as f*** ofc. He's one of those players who really should have made it to at least the final 3 or so first tiem, and I think he could make up for it this time) 06 William (really growing to like him, but I agree I wish he'd put Bruno up. It feels like he sort of went for the safe mode 07 Dre (she's great she just needs to actually do something, she feels like 1st or 2nd juror fodder) 08 Cassandra (such a shame but a huge disappointment, as I said earlier in this thread I think her style of play just didn't work twice. Genius the first time but everyone was wise to her tricks this go around and she had no chance :() 09 Sindy (love her but bless she's just the Victoria BB16 of this season :lol:) 10 Gary (disappointing, seemed to just give up basically instantly and then let himself be picked off) 11 Dallas (DADDY. That is all) 12 Emily (:zzz:) 13 Dillon (he is lowkey daddy, I know I'm alone but I like bears and dad bods, but yeah good lord stfu. I think he'd be ok if he was on the "right" side on in power but he's one of those who goes off the second it's not plain sailing and that's really annoying) 14 Bruno (SO dull. He's playing it well but just giving me nothing at all, I'm glad he seems to be a target over Kevin out of that pair) 15 Mark (who indeed) 16 Jackie (idk why but I HATE HER SO MUCH. Just stfu. She's so irritating for no real reason) This hasn't been the most thrilling or exciting season but I do like at least some of the key players of each side which is normally the big issue with BBUS a lot of the time, when the wrong people control the house.
April 14, 20178 yr I never thought I'd be so happy that someone I ranked a few hours ago as my 2nd fave was evicted, but good god was that what the series needs and WHAT a moment. I just don't know where to start, it was the fact that OF ALL PEOPLE Sindy has just blown this season wide open (well, Ika did it really but the fact Sindy actually won a HOH lmao). Then OF ALL PEOPLE Jackie actually wins something, I was just saying to someone earlier how both of them need to actually do something. And then the icing on the cake was Neda's reaction and the crowd cheering that she was evicted!!! She was one of the best players in BBUS and Canada history imo from season 2, and she completely ruined it this time, oh how the mighty fall. I'd feel bad for her if she didn't bully Sindy until she cried and treat people like shit because immunity went to her head. She was such a bitch to Gary and Cass for example. It shows that the immunity was a bit of a stupid twist really but if it gave us this iconic moment I can't be mad. I am so interested to see what happens in the fallout from this now, the past 3 weeks or so it's been pretty predictable and meh. DemIka for power couple plz with William, Dre and Karen behind them. I just can't, this has to be one of the best evictions in all the series of BB UK, Aus, US and Canada. As much as we can have periods like the last few weeks, this is exactly why I love the housemate driven format. Whilst it's rare that these things happen, it's so satisfying!
April 14, 20178 yr Author That was a Top 5, if not, top 2 Big Brother Moment (Topaz's Vote will always win out). Can we just take a moment to respect how much THE RED HEAD killed that Veto competition, it's really her we have to thank. She made this possible. We need more physical comps like that. Next - we can move to Sindy. Well, I guess, actually Ika for actually forming a relationship with Sindy. IKA AND SINDY DID NOT LIKE EACH OTHER WHEN THIS STARTED (pre season). The fact that Ika was able to reign Sindy in to even consider nominating Neda is massive. Considering the house was getting ready to flip of Ika. Sindy pretty much did what William did last week (pre-veto) which is secure herself a position further in the game. Unless Bruno and Kevin got the balls, they were likely going to take Neda as far as possible. Now Sindy has a HUGE chance of being the 'Goat/Victoria' of the season they'll just drag to the end. Neda's problem was she played this game like a chick and not like a dude. That sounds sexist as hell - but it's true! The guys keep bigger targets around so they don't become targets. Neda took out the bigger female targets (Cassandra, Gary*) which only put a bigger target on her back. Plus she was bitchy as all hell. Truth is, she lasted 10 minutes in the game**. Really disappointing for someone that is supposed to be this Big Brother Legend. Neda!! Cassandra, Gary and Dallas lasted longer than you in the game if you really think about it. * Sorry to call Gary a Female, it's not 'Female Targets' per say, but I don't really know how to define that statement. ** I will give Neda some credit... she did survive Week 1 without her immunity. Thanks Sindy for blowing this game wide open - WE WILL FOREVER BE INDEBTED TO YOU. Edited April 14, 20178 yr by Aaron.
April 14, 20178 yr omg my heart was in my mouth! That was certainly one of the tensest moments I've ever seen on BB!! When Sindy won, I was thinking f*** William or Dre are going, then she put up the two floaters so I thought something must be going on here but it still might be to get William/Dre up but then THAT happened!!! That was such a brilliant moment and shows that ANYTHING can happen in this game. Getting evicted by her closest female ally *.* As I said when Cassandra got evicted, all that did was remove a shield for Neda. They were the two biggest female players in the house and so, without Cass, it just placed a huge target on Neda. I do get her reasoning behind that though but I think her worst move was getting Gary out. Gary hadn't really done anything to that point, the only reason he was a target was because he's considered the ultimate BBCan legend. So removing him cemented Neda as the remaining ultimate BBCan legend in the house, increasing the target on her back. The immunity did place a large target on her and I think she only went to further extend that through her behaviour. She walked around like she was Queen Bee and every decision had to go through her. If any decision was not her decision, she wouldn't like it and would go against that person. That was her downfall really. She shouldn't have exactly stepped back but she should have been more at the sidelines, quietly influencing, not outwardly acting as the leader. The fact that the move came from one of her closest allies really has made this season so much more interesting (hopefully) and its hard to predict where it will go next. Ika is of course still a big target but she always will be. Neda can win comps and she would have put Ika/Dem on the block as her next move so it was certainly the right move for Ika to influence Sindy to get her out.
April 15, 20178 yr Yep that's looking likely!!! I love Kevin but like Neda I am so happy for that to happen as a big move. Noms have happened he's nominated Demetres and Jackie and now. Demetres could easily win veto of course so we could see another backdoor!
April 16, 20178 yr Author ***Demetres*** won the veto and there's a lot of talk about either Kevin or Sindy being the replacement nominee. Dillion seems pretty open to discussing this with Dem/Ika/Karen. He pretty much said he's absolutely not putting up Ika. This could be another great week!
April 16, 20178 yr Kevin being backdoored would be fab, another big move and it pretty much incapacitates Bruno. He's definitely the better option, they're probably worried for Sindy that they can't trust her after she cut Neda but Kevin and Bruno are probably more likely to influence people, win things and, especially with Kevin, worm their way into people with a stellar social game. So they'd be mad not to go for Kevin really.
April 16, 20178 yr Would be pretty dumb not to go for Kevin since he has such a more powerful influence on the vote and nominees.
April 16, 20178 yr Author I would be absolutely choked if Sindy went out this week. Sure, she hasn't been the most entertaining housemate this year but she got Neda out which was amazing. I also remembered her setting up the Jordan eviction over Godfrey in BBCAN3 and she got the boot the following week.
April 17, 20178 yr Author http://etcanada.com/video/922851907727/big...-and-ikas-feud/ Assuming we're getting that on tonights show. Doesn't really tell much. Demetre's comment as he was about to vote tho *.*
April 20, 20178 yr Author Unfortunately, this season is rigged. Moments Later I think they're leading us to a Dre win at the end, which, I wouldn't be too upset about.
