I would like someone more if they were open to the public about playing a game, otherwise I find it irritating and like they are trying to fool the public as well as the HMs

The answer is...To us viewers there's nothing wrong with being a game player,I reckon it would be different in there though when you think you're being decieved by another housemate.It hm's who complain about it,Not fm's.

I have no problem with game playing, but finding out that Dexter has had rodeoing, even if he hasnt done this as pro Dexter fans say then boasting he has is repulsive, Sam and his comments towards woman, its so disrespectful, it might be a lads thing but you dont do it on national tv or infront of woman.
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/s149/...-comments.html


Charlies a bloody idiot she doesnt fancy Dexter. Nor does he fancy her,let alone love her. Shes an iritating passive aggressive, i feel, i feel, me meme.Dexters gone for her because a man who engages in deviant behaviour would target her, he sees her as weak, i mean the girl dont even know her own mind. Dexter isnt a man on a journey, sure he has had therapy and he is using that dialogue to his advantagostitutes, sugar babies fine, other things fine, but as soon as a man behaves in a way that crosses a womans right to say what happens to her body all bets are off.

Yep from reading others threads ive done a complete turn around, yiu learn things here you wouldnt by watching an hour. For that Im grateful, if i could delete all previous threads i would.

That leaves the twins and Gina.

Sorry but for those who are playing it (i.e. everyone except Jack and Joe IMO), it can be regarded as no more than acting.
And acting isn't real life so you can't say it's "morally wrong".

It's a gameshow.
Trying to win the show by gaining a tactical advantage over others by "playing the game" means HM's often show themselves more, trip themselves (or others up) up.
However they also show best use of their POSITIVE individual skills i.e. keeping cool, staying friends etc

It's what makes it intriguing.

Does it mean you win by ALWAYS manipulating others ?

Of course not.
Most of the time people are genuine and the public WILL also take into account their kindness, sincerity etc and their actions too.

But you have to spot what's done for acting and when HM's are just being themselves.

Short of murder or bullying (which BB puts a stop to anyway) it's game on and really, the contestants should be fully aware of the risks before they decide to enter the show.

Lets say you have a daughter and she told you that a guy who she is going out with tonight said to her upon first meeting her .... show us your gash for bangers and mash? or how's your fanny? i mean family?
Would you happily wave her off in the taxi to meet this wonderful chap or would she be grounded for the next 3 years and told she must never ever see this guy?

Trust me she does !

Like you say she doesnt fancy Dexter and she's just playing a part in the showmance (at least while on the show)

If I may say, no-one likes disrepect to women.
But honestly don't think that's "playing the game" because no-ones using it to gain any tactical advantage.

I honestly wouldn't judge some of their claims too seriously either.

The problem with being a game player is that no one is a good enough actor to get away with it apart from Gina. It is better to be yourself, then you don't need to act fake. Gina just about gets away with it.

Id rather withdraw favourable comments towards HM's that have bragged about these type of behaviours.

But thanks for your comment The Answers

Oh sure, I don't blame you for that !

Personally, I try to avoid external news articles etc and just concentrate on what I see in the house.
But maybe I'm wrong.
Trouble is you don't really know what's true out there and what isn't.

Charlie has !
The vast majority and none of the BBOTS panel tonight haven't got a clue why she's there and how well she's manipulates situations to suit herself and evict others like Hazel and Callum

I can see through her !
But I ADMIRE her gameplaying skills so it's a big plus for me.

You're right though.
For example, I'm sure Jack and Joe are just being themselves
Unless I've missed their sneakiness but I doubt it !
