Everyone is playing a game to some extent, it's fair enough if you want to go in there and have absolutely no agenda to win or gain anything from it other than the experience, but the constant diatribes from Jenkin about how morally wrong it is to "play a game" in there is so ridiculous when it's a damn game show with a cash prize.

Jenkin clearly thinks it's better to just sit on his arse all day moaning and bitching and stashing away alcohol and food.

…it was interesting, wasn’t it…when Tom said/accused, really…‘don’t forget what you’re here for…and also almost inferring../…don’t be going making friends and connecting and having fun etc because you came for a reason and keep your eyes on the prize…’…/…that very much could be a take on what he said…but the thing with that is, yeah it would indicate a game playing of the end goal being to win/and the cash prize etc….but he himself has so genuinely felt the loss of Paul and of others in his ‘group’….so I guess that’s an indication also that there are many game players in there, not just this house but in days gone by…but along the way, they also make friends and attachments as well …which I think would be very rare that a housemate wouldn’t feel that because the house becomes their world and their family…and that’s something that could never be truly anticipated until they’re actually there and living it…

…anyway, I’ve probably got off track…but yeah I think it’s totally acceptable because if it wasn’t then there probably wouldn’t be a BB to even think about it all…but obviously it’s all going to bring a risk factor as well because there are so many layers to playing a game…someone would have to anticipate ‘just the right game to win’ as it were…and then they would have to be really focused throughout to maintain it because we people, fairly much scrutinise every breath they take…some seasons, a ‘game player’ would be popular and gain votes etc but in other seasons, not so much…?…so yeah it’s all very layered and complicated and I think that ‘game player’ is an overused word and label when with BB and housemates…

…I’ve honestly got completely off topic now……anyway, with Jordan for instance….I was thinking that he’s the person this series who has most been labelled a game player …but I don’t personally think he is…because showmances in general, no matter how many sides and angles they have…?…are not something that BB fans really take to…there’s an immediate suspicion etc…and they’re more of a put off and ick than a turn on and a bit of a BB no, no….so it wouldn’t be a wise game to play…it would seem fairly dumb, maybe …and I wouldn’t attach that to his character…I can’t recall what the question was, but yeah…
