James was in prison?

I heard James say (live feed) he had worked in a private prison. Then one forumite stated James had a mugshot photo on the internet, which he does for a family contempt of court charge. It must have been related to a custody situation, if I had to guess. Both Audrey and Jason also have mugshots online as well.

Shelli must know they are voting her out because she has been scrambling hard today. They had a meeting last night and discussed her going home, so someone obviously told her about it.

Jackie and James figured out Vanessa's strategy last night, so if Shelli stays, Vanessa will be on the block next week for Double Eviction, if one of their sides win HOH.

James worked as a corrections officer for 3 years

Vanessa is in trouble. Steve/Clelli winning HOH is her best case scenario followed by her winning.

Austin/Liz/Julia/Clay or Shelli?

I edited it to Clelli also. She isn't in direct danger if Austwins win but they won't go after Meg/Jackie/James as of now unless things change.

Her real best case scenario is Austin winning and putting up James or Jackie because then Austin might become the target over her. If he does go the Clay/Johnny Mac route it is not as good for her. Austwins were talking about possibly throwing the comp but then backed off and said only throw it if Steve or JMac are the only ones left.

She is completely safe if Austwins win HOH. They might not target Meg, James, Jackie but they would at least target Becky who is after Vanessa as well. And they may target Meg, Jackie, James. They might be scared of pissing them off if they take out James or jackie but there would be only 2 people for sure that would be pissed, Meg(who has the least chance to win hoh) and whoever stayed between jackie and James. If you don't take them out when you get the chance and reduce their numbers they will take you out when they get the chance and reduce your numbers.

There is no chance Austwins would take out Clay next. Why would they take out someone on their side over the enemy or a floater? Because the other side wants it? Well too bad, they're not playing for the other side to get what they want and win the game.

I know she is safe if Austwins win. As of now if they win they are putting up Clay/JMac with the intention of voting out JMac if veto isn't used. That is why it is best case scenario for Vanessa if Steve or Clelli win.

When did they say this? I must not have gotten that far today yet on feeds. That would be stupid to put those 2 up. I kinda see why they would put up Clay as to not piss off the other side and make it look like they going with the plan to evict Clay. But once they keep Clay they would know anyway. And sending home Jmac over Becky, Jackie, james would be a mistake. As Jmac is the biggest free agent. He could come to their side. It's possible with Becky too but since she's already playing both sides you would never know if you can trust her. So Becky or a direct hit at james or jackie would be the best options.

They all agreed to it in their meeting which they want to stick to as of now even though the other side isn't gonna.

I don't put much stock into what Austin/Liz/Julia say with so many days until it matters. Heck we still don't even know who's going be voted out. What I do know is if either wins Vanessa is safe. Sure they might not take the ideal target out but as long as its Becky, John, Jackie, Meg, James it's a win.

That's a good point. Really doubt they do anything unless Vanessa tells them.

I doubt they will stick to it for the same reasons the other side isn't sticking to it. They said that in the meeting just in case other side win HOH they want to make it look like they're working with them. You really think they would take out Clay? That was the plan in HOH. There is 0 chance they would take out Clay so james and Co. would then know they're not working together. So why mess around and just target them straight away while you can? There is a slight chance they take out Jmac because they don't know where he stands and to cause little blood. But if Clay stays they would be more likely to keep Jmac as they know Jmac listens to Clay. And more likely to take out Becky so Jmac comes to their side. I'd say their targets would be Becky, James, Jackie. Not Meg because she can't win comps.

Also like R_Webb said, wouldn't put much stock to what Austwins say with so many days in between. They're just spitballing ideas that can easily change. Especially when Vanessa gets in their ear more.

I'm cheering for James to win and think he has a good chance. Next I would want Jmac but not likely but dudes hilarious to me. I also like Austin being on because hes fun to laugh at for being such a tool but hes way to dumb to win.

Vanessa annoys me way to emotional.

meg so worthless, sucks at bowling too which isn't even a real comp, so f annoying how she talks game with any clout at all

Clelli just chilling in the bathroom for hours has to be a little awkward for everyone lol

ugh, looks like Shelli is gonna stay after all. at least it'll cause more drama on Thursday

But they Austwins aren't telling James tonight so Austin can still puss out.

I really don't think he or the twins would vote against Vanessa without telling her ahead of time

i guess theyre still deciding (austin/twins)

The best move for them is obviously keeping Shelli. Steve and Vanessa explained exactly why.

I think they will tell Vanessa beforehand either way. I hope she says to Austin the last time you made a move I didn't tell you to you were the target of the whole house.

Every week everyone says we are drawing a line in the sand and no one has done it yet. Every single person is playing both sides. It's amazing there are even sides.

and ya it is really awkward that clay/shelli are just posting up in the bathroom all night
