This exactly, thanks.

That's all fine and stuff but some people flat out called her a racist which is a very strong accusation to say about anyone especially when there is 0 evidence that its actually true.

I personally don't think Shelli is like a huge freaking racist, but some anti-racial stuff may be just natural in her.

Braden 06-07-2015 07:23 PM

Well said extra :love:

This is why diversity within casting is so important. But hey, this is BBUS after all.

DrunkerThanMoses 06-07-2015 07:35 PM

Oh please everyone knows Sheeli wants her out because she did not give her immunity in week 1.

armand.kay 06-07-2015 07:38 PM

Lol @ this becoming a race thing ****ing hell.

DrunkerThanMoses 06-07-2015 07:39 PM

Veto meeting over

John used it and Meg went up as replacement as planned

armand.kay 06-07-2015 07:40 PM

I love dey but she played to hard in a week where she was immune, she made an alliance too early then broke it soon after and she got herself involved in all types of messes. she really did shoot herself in the foot and I can see why shelli nominated her.

armand.kay 06-07-2015 07:41 PM

That being said **** shelli

Hopefully dey can rally some people to save her :worry:

What does she need 7 votes?

Calderyon 06-07-2015 07:49 PM

She is gone, there is no way people are going to evict Meg instead of her. She had a slim chance against Liz, but now she is definitely dunzo.

I feel sorry for those who like her, but personally i´m kind of glad to see her go.

Yes I think, if she wins the cancel 3 votes she needs 5 then. I cant see anyone saving her, even Jason has accepted it and he rather keep Meg as she is another ally of his

geeky600 06-07-2015 08:05 PM

Can someone pm me a working. Link for feeds uk

AarynGriesfan 06-07-2015 08:15 PM

DaVonne gives really good confessionals but she was really bad at the game. She played too hard too fast and it didn't take long for that to catch up with her. She was good tv but she was a bad player and that is why she is going home.

Dominic 06-07-2015 08:40 PM

I just need Day to get Audrey, Vanessa, Liz, Austin and Jason on board and also get the 7th call...

This Meg can go I don't really mind. Her, Liz, Shelli we have enough blonde girls as it is, with Day gone the Diversity count drops to 1 after week 2 ffs, BBUS teas :joker: Unlike BBcanada where we had two people of color AND a feminist/advocate for people of color in the final 4.

Raph 06-07-2015 09:13 PM

DrunkerthanMoses, Steve gave a shoutout to Jordan BBCAN3 as Shelli looked totally dumbfounded on the feeds -- this guy has totally earned my respect now. This season is definitely all about superfans John and Steve :D :D

Braden 06-07-2015 09:16 PM

what actually earns 'Superfan' status? Just out of curiosity :joker:

Hmm I think just a love for the show, and someone who shows they've had a desire to be on the show for years. That's how I see it anyways. I mean you could also say someone who's seen every season, which of course is very admirable in terms of studying the game inside and out.

Raph 06-07-2015 09:19 PM

But in terms of numerical value i'd say maybe anyone who's watched the show for 5+ years at least? Like I wouldn't classify Derrick as a superfan, but I would Nicole/Christine - that's probably a good example to give.

It's also just that adorable excitement to try out slop, get trashed in a comp, win HOH all those things that help characterize a true superfan imo :love:

Macie Lightfoot 06-07-2015 09:19 PM

Shelli actually has a decent amount of BBUS knowledge fwiw. Steve is really just from the Ian Terry branch of superfan where he can rattle off, like, POV winner orders and endless facts from Big Brother Wikia such as Cassi Clovin and Joey Van Pelt are the only two HGs who were always Have Nots.

Raph 06-07-2015 09:21 PM

Yeah if i'm correct of the original 14 (excluding Jeff/Jackie dunno about them) everyone else seems to have been at least fans of the show (and were applicants) this season, which is absolutely fantastic. Hence why I like Shelli better than Clay as in terms of personality they're interchangeable imo

Macie Lightfoot 06-07-2015 09:25 PM

Oh no, people like Becky and Liz were without a doubt recruits there's no denying that.

Anyway, Jason's definitely the person in there with the most actual knowledge about BBUS. He has a legitimate understanding of BBUS history and gameplay and has actually talked about game dynamics of BB3. Steve just sits there and rattles off pointless trivia like Brendon having the longest word in the spelling POV and the final vote outcome of each series, usually to an audience of people who barely tolerate him and don't know what he's talking about. Jason's actually a normal person while Steve's just some savant.

If I remember correctly hasn't Becky seen pretty much every season as well as BBCANADA seasons? I think you're wrong re her. And Liz was friends with Porsche and Porsche encouraged her to audition, so no she wasn't recruited. Clay was the only recruit, and not suprisingly the worst one in there.

And yasss Jason's love for the show makes me so happy! He's seen every season of BBCanada too, and most seasons of BBUK and BBAustralia :love:
