I though Aaron was supposed to be the epitome of integrity not that long ago? The man with the ‘morals’? Now he’s being applauded for being the opposite - ‘the brilliant gameplayer tactician’. Colour me confused.
Aaron is not just playing a game in the house and manipulating the HM's, he is also manipulating the public. If he wins, his pockets will be full of money given by the very people he has fooled (if you mind being fooled that is, and don't admire him for it - otherwise - spend away!).
He’ll be laughing up his sleeve no doubt.
Oh well. If the public want that kind of gameplayer to win, fair play. It's their money to spend how they wish. I'll be hoping he doesn't win because he's not the kind of person I admire.
Talking of game players - Victor was the best ever - he was upfront about it, he was funny and entertaining and he was HIMSELF while playing the game. I like a good honest game player myself.

Obviously I share your views here Jet.

People say, 'well,it's a game show right?' to me all the time here, and y'know what... it is, and that's fine.

This is why I liked Harry and grew to like Anton- They knew it was a gameshow. The difference is that they played it with the public in on it. The joke was never on the voters.

The true joke is ofc that Aaron even told the voting public that he was going to play them before he went in and the majority have forgotten that and STILL have fallen for it.
