Jessica walks in ... crickets

He literally wouldn't even have to campaign if he kept his cool. There's no way to prove it but I would've wagered at even money that even Jess would've kept him.

Do we know for sure which way Dom is voting? Like has she told Mark she's keeping Xmas or something like that?

Xmas needs 7. 4 Guaranteed as of now:

Paul Matt Raven Elena

5 Possibles:

Dom

Kevin has told both they have his vote. I can see him going with Paul but I can also see him keeping his word to the first one he guaranteed safety to and someone he looks at like a daughter in Jillian. He also is all about putting on a show and I think he thinks Xmas is better tv.

I think by the end of the week Mark will get convinced that Alex and her side is still going after Cody and Jess so he will vote for Xmas.

Josh who knows but I think he will go with Paul cause he got a friendship bracelet and Xmas one of the least mean to him.

Whistle Nut also unsure but if he wants to go after Cody and Jess he will keep the stronger comp threat.

Definitely Not:

Alex Ramses Jess

Production will also favor Xmas so I think she is extremely likely to stay

I think Dom and Mark are going down with Cody. Christmas may have Matt,, Raven, Elana, Paul, Jason, Kevin and it really comes down to Dom

Forgot about Josh, I think he keeps Christmas

As of now that'sa 7-5 vote to keep Christmas, even if Dom and mark vote for her

How you figure that? Jason just solidified a deal with Cody that Cody would try to get jason and Alex to jury. Why would he go against that for Paul who gives him no promises? Not one person you mentioned would def. save Paul. Possible yeah. Just as possible as they all vote against him. But Jason not 50/50 i think he would have voted Paul out since he sides with Alex and him and Alex had assurances from Cody but not Paul. In fact Alex knew paul wanted her out while she thinks Cody wants her to stay at least until jury maybe more. And she wouldn't vote out her best friend jillian.

I thought Mark would for sure but he went from 100% Xmas out to he's on the fence and wants to hear Xmas out before making a decision. Mark also said he thinks the 9 can still get to jury. He's just a super nice guy I like him a lot and when he's not emotional he could be a decent player. He just gets emotional too much and is blindly loyal

Dom told Xmas she's getting her vote right after reading the bible. If I didn't hear that I think I would've had her as doubtful. I think she's smart enough to know when to jump ship. I think Cody putting Paul up indirectly benefited her the most. I think she was going to get caught up in pitting the alliance against each other but it got blown up before they had the chance to figure her out.

Him and Alex both are going back on the deal. They are going to try to throw HOH to Paul so they don't have to do it directly. Why would anyone agree to go to jury on the wrong side of 7-4 at best numbers and with the weaker overall competitors?

Everyone listed there was 95%+ to keep Paul, most 100%

They would have when 7-4 against but already in jury and a shot to flip people then alot better than where they were before they made that deal. Before that one of her 2 best allies were going home this week in jason and jillian only because she got off the block. Her whole team of 3 were almost for sure not make jury. So i think pretty good deal much better than what Paul was offering which was get out Alex then Alex off get out Jason. Who would you side with there?

Now that Paul got off everything is wide open and anyone could jump to anyone. Now Alex can see better options than 7-4 against in jury so may flip on cody as christmas and Paul need her now.

I like Mark alot too. Though i was surprised how after ceremony how on cody's side he was saying we done with Paul. He just had a great chat last night with Paul you think he'd be up in the air more or lean Paul since Cody messed up not Paul. Paul, mark, Alex my favorites.

Youre counting guaranteed votes on Sunday of week 1...

Kevin and Paul will keep Christmas tho

Yes.

Just based on feeds

Josh looking like he'll keep Christmas too

Whistle Nut is pissed because when Xmas was pissed she said you screwed our 8. He doesn't realize Paul was 9 so he doesn't want to keep Xmas as of now because he thinks she's with them and they're "trojan horsing." He's flipping out right now to Paul.

Cody actually seemed shook, talking to Paul.

he said he's probably going to be backdoored

Mark saying he's keeping XMas. Dom too. As of now it's 6 without Kevin or Josh. Not including them yet in my "guaranteed"

Id bet anything Kevin keeps her

I'd say that too but we or at least I don't have any insight into what he's basing his vote on. Is he with Paul 100% or Alex/Whistle more? I think it's probably Paul but I don't know that for sure.

Side note: This is probably the nicest and most kindhearted cast possibly ever

This seriously might come down to who is less mean to Josh

elana looks like a public service ad for the horror of botched plastic surgery.

Sounds like Christmas broke her foot. Yikes.

Cursed season?

that sucks but it could actually help her stay in if she's less of a physical threat

We'll see. If it's really a break and not just a sprain, I doubt she'll be coming back.

btw if you've got the stomach for it you can watch her foot swell up at 8:45 on cam 3
