And Corey has not pissed any of the jurors off well except Victor so why would anyone want to take him to the final 3 who is most likely going to win the final hoh or as you said get taken by James?

He will be a **** winner tbh because he's soo dull

Exactly, plus Victor is going to vote for Paul no matter what anyway.

I think the fact that nobody is 100% sure who would win in any of these possible f2 scenarios is really interesting and will make for good viewing. I genuinely think any of them could take it depending on who makes it, probably most likely either Nicole/Paul though which I'll be happy with.

gutted, was hoping Nicole would go

Corey would take James too so it's par for the course really, the only thing that matters here is who Paul could realistically beat and Nicole is by far the riskiest opponent, she has at least four votes on lock, to only need one more is way too dangerous.

Plus Corey isn't gonna win part 1 whereas Nicole (and James) stand a very good chance of doing so, better to only need to beat one than two people. And I'd say part 2 and 3 go to Paul if he's up against Corey, Nicole's much better at memory comps

Yeah, Nicole is going to have Paulie/Corey/James on lock if Paul takes her, I think it's a really bad move.

I mean the only ones who probably would vote for Paul definitely is Victor and Michelle

I still believe Bridgette/Da'Vonne/Zakiyah/Natalie[who wants to vote a girl/may re-evaluate/talk to James] are on the fence with either one

Whereas if it was Corey v Paul

Corey would probably only get Nicole and Paulies votes


As both Corey/Nicole are going to 100 percent take James anyway, so why not get rid of someone who has a good chance of winning against you.

I hope all the girls see Nicole saying stuff like she wants to be the last girl cus then all the girls in jury will be pissed and vote Paul out of pettiness. :flutter:

Part of me wonders if Paul burned all his chances by calling Michelle a **** (I know the c-word is kinda thrown around a lot elsewhere but in the US this is A Big Deal), but then again we live in a world where the show feels the need to have some facilitate a staged round table and berate them for thinking emotionally and not strategic.

Nicole evicted Michelle which is probably a bigger deal to her. Plus they seemed to personally dislike each other. Michelle is more of an emotional than strategic player so her vote will go to Paul.

she's an emotional player so she's gonna vote to reward someone who called her a **** with $500,000?

Well she'll have to choose one of them if it comes down to that. :shrug: I think she'll feel more bitter towards Nicole for ruining her own chance of winning the money and game (being a superfan as well) than Paul for calling her a name.

Yeah Michelle isn't going to vote for Nicole ever lmao. It's like Maddy voting Kelsey to win on BBCAN4 it wasn't going to happen.

tbf I have no idea who will vote for who at this stage, it could go anywhere and the speeches/questions might change peoples minds. But all I know Michelle won't ever vote Nicole and Corey will vote Nicole and maybe Paulie will too.

Paul is gonna slay the speeches over any of Nicole/Corey/James so I hope it does mostly come down to that tbf :flutter:

I don't think it's beyond the realms of possibility that Michelle votes for Nicole, she's close to Nat who wants a girl to win and I too wouldn't be surprised if the '****' incident was a sticking point

The point is though that Nicole has at least four votes on lock (Corey, Paulie, Zakiyah, Day), factor in Natalie who wants a woman to win and thus Meech too and James who will vote with her, and there's a chance Paul only gets Victor's vote. And that's without even considering the hand of Grodner who could pull some Jessie/Jordan **** to ensure she wins!

It's far too risky to be gambling on a spread of votes like that. It's in all of their best interests to evict Nicole, not only based on the jury but comps too

Are Zakiyah and Da'Vonne really lock votes for Nicole over Paul or even James in Da'Vonne's case?

Day's said that Nicole's playing the best, and Zakiyah will just do whatever she and/or Paulie does let's be honest

I do think there's a chance Day would vote for James if he's in the F2 but still, the person with the most votes at their disposal is Nicole. It makes no sense for Paul and James to keep her over Corey, especially when you factor in the three parts of the final HoH

I joked a couple of weeks ago about imagining if Nicole went on a comp run towards the end and that actually seems to be happening :omgno:

It makes no sense to keep Corey either I mean I wouldn't take him because he's not in anyones bad books, no one is angry/pissed with him and he's only betrayed Victor who is going to vote Paul no matter what.

Day said Nicole is playing the best game but that doesn't mean her vote is 100% because sometimes it's all about relationships and Nicole has pretty much angered most of them with her betrayal.

If Nicole won the final HOH I don't think it's certain she's going to take James, she flipped her entire stay and she didn't want to put Paul up last week but Corey still did. Corey won't take Paul. Paul has a chance with Nicole.

Corey,James and Paul have a better social game than Nicole

Ugh @ James in the final 3...

Take Corey out tho.

So we're probably gonna see a Nicole/James F2.. Nicole better win that but I feel like James might be more likely. :worry: (despite not deserving it at allllllll)

Imagine if James asked to be evicted 3rd so he can with AFP :joker:

Hahaha Luke

I wouldn't even be shocked :facepalm:

don't do this fam

If he did all this then evicted Nicole tho omfg

yeah I'm reading updates from last night and it sounds like Paul wants to take Nicole to the F2 which wtf? He's been warned by like four different people that she's a snake, someone literally screamed into the house that she has a pre-game alliance with James, and yet he wants to bring her to the end where the jury is pretty feminist by BBUS standards (a low bar, but still.)

I'm just praying he's playing them both against each other so that they'll both take him to the final two. That tweet makes sense if he plans to cut Nicole if he wins part three but I still don't think throwing comps (especially to her) at this stage is a good idea at all

Surely he cannot be so idiotic as to evict James over her? It'd be up there with the Cody move :umm2:
