This is getting too META for me.

Raph seems a shy, nervous kind of person and has obviously noticed what got previous housemates in and followed suit.

Raph is trying to be dan ghessing or doctor will kirby approach in his auditions/vt, problem is he dont have the charm to play like them, and the uk version is not like the us version. He is still the most likeable one in there and I think he represents alot of us as fans, no idea why people are so annoyed with him playing a game, its a gameshow.

I didn't like his comment that because he's cute, people will instantly like and trust him. That's just so ****ing cocky and no different than someone like Lotan or Kieran bragging about their good looks.

he just KNEW that sticking with tibb favourites will give him extra power

I can imagine he's got a full wall in his basement that's years in the making of his 'BB route to success' like a giant collage of photographs with bits of string linking each pathway to the win.Like detectives have in movies or a blackboard with mathematical equations like Einstein.

If this is a game then respect to him.It would be genius and I'd actually like him.

Raph is like a nerdy bond villain, his nice persona is all an act. He is charming like the devil and will fool everyone then reveal his true colours at the end.

They should fear the wrath of raph.

This would be cool but he probably was just saying **** to get in the house and he's just a nice guy to be fair.

they really needs to play the audition tapes in the house.maybe housemates will finally turn on raph

They all exagerate for their audition though.

bye I bet they do this and it'd be ****ing stupid

Housemates should be entitled to play games without having them ruined by incompetent producers who are desperate for drama

He is keeping his wits about him and its applaudable.

To be honest Raph hasn't really done much to admit hes planned to do things. He didn't create the divide and was not a big part of the divide. I'd probably say Sukvinder/Hannah on the exile crew and then Lotan from the other side were the biggest causes.

Raph has just been himself, and I'm unsure personally what this thread has got at because hes not really been invovled in many of these things bar having issues with Joe, which seems genuine to me.

He doesn't need to admit it, in fact I think it's best he doesn't cause not only are you just asking for the producers to show it the housemates, but it might (stupidly) turn the public off you

The divide was caused indirectly on the first night by Tom's decisions and the fact there were split bedrooms, but that doesn't mean he hasn't tried to reinforce it on several occasions. He's also a few times gone and told the exiles what the clique have been saying about them (that he's been stupidly criticised for IMO) and I'm pretty sure he bent the truth on one occasion, which would tie perfectly with what he said in his audition tape. I do think the Joe stuff is genuine, but I'm beginning to believe he's playing it up deliberately for effect, and I wouldn't be surprised if he's enjoying having a feud that makes him look a victim tbh

This thread wasn't a criticism, if he is doing this on purpose it makes him a far better housemate than if he isn't

So that explains why Macie and Luke hate each other!

A snake.

With Raph, I think it's a case of all hat no kettle.
He would like to think of himself as a mastermind and an evil popular hms crasher in the VT and the audition, but when it comes to face the music and put things in actions, he's shaking in his pants. You could see every nominations' reveal, every eviction announcement, every time things kick off, every time his friends are losing it and could leave because of the drama that he partially caused - he's terrified and can't cope with the results, almost regretting and on the verge of crying "no! no! it's getting out of hand! forget everything, it was a mistake!". Why? Because it doesn't suit him. He can't handle the drama he's so thirsty for. He should let it go. It's not him.

(seems like the production start to give us his fall from grace now...)

Raph was hamming it up to get in the house. We all know they would never take someone who is just a nice guy. They want troublemakers and Raph knows that.
It was clever of him and it got him on the show.
But he's not really evil or calculated. He's just a nice guy who loves the show.

I hate when housemates have a good game plan going but then BB just expose it like that. Let the public work it out. Idiots.

*suddenly worries that he's responsible for me smacking benjamin*

That should have earned you medal or something :hee:
