Everyone else is just letting all the drama focus on the main targets.
After half the day feeds are back, and the results of the temptation challenge are CLICK AT YOUR OWN RISK
Cody won the temptation challenge, he is safe this week. Jessica came in last, she will be on the block.
Josh told Kevin he is putting up Mark and Elena. Paul and Josh are now having a debate whether or not to send Elena or Jessica home.

Oh this will be fun thread, let's discuss Elena's gameplay versus Jess's. To me there is no contest, Jess wins hands down.
Just this episode alone, Jess was smart enough not only to difuse a conversation where she and Cody were being talk about and called people out for it she also stopped Paul from trying to double cross her and told him to his face the deal was off and then used a power she earned in this game very wisely (most people on these shows don't use their power at all or use it poorly). Elena is just privileged to be on the "right side" and is floating along. If Paul had told Elena to use her power (if she was Jess in that situation) she would probably have no questions asked.
I can't see why anyone would think Elena is a better player than Jess.
After a 20 minute conversation with Josh, Paul leaves the room to go get Mark and Elena
Josh alone: "I want Elena out. Elena has to go. Paul doesn't see what I see. I know Jessica and Cody are going after me and I'm going after them. I respect that." Josh says he doesn't like Elena's disloyalty. Josh says he's trying to take out Elena, or in Josh's words "the glue" Josh says Elena is covered on every angle and she has to go.

Oh did the casting director get it so right with this one.

Do you think that's a bad move? I don't necessarily.
It's not, and I see exactly where Josh is coming from.
Josh earlier mentioned he wants to talk to Jess and Cody to perhaps make a deal with them
I love that Josh isn't letting personal drama get to him, he's playing the game

Yeah he seems to be taking direction from Christmas more than Paul. Nice to see someone stand up for themselves.After a 20 minute conversation with Josh, Paul leaves the room to go get Mark and Elena

No one cares that you quit your job to do Big Brother. No one in the house playing the game made you do that. The fact that you did that should factor zero into how the game is being played. Seriously. Just stop.

Seriously. "Oh, you don't have a job. I guess I should change my whole game to help your employment outside of the house." Okay Elena.
Her social game sucks. I get that his point isn't logical but why is she arguing with the person in power. That's not helping her.

He needs a pawn (that no one will miss if Jess wins veto)
If he'd just come clean about it this entirely stupid and pointless convo could end

HOH lied about reasons for noms. That's never been done before.
She needs to just nod her head and leave. She's making her target bigger. The appropriate thing would be to use this knowledge to know she's in trouble and find a way to put a spin against somebody else or do something to build trust. Does she think her arguing will make him realize he's wrong and change his mind? She knows he's lying so what's the point of this.
Actually,what's more annoying to me is she is saying because she quit her job she is trying to stay in the as long as she can to gain the most exposure ,and she just wants to stay to make jury, she can as she wants a career in media after this (yea right that will work).
If I was Josh I'd share this with Paul as he has said many times this season how he cares about players who respect the game and are here to play the game. Elena is neither of these things, is just here for herself, and that may sway Paul to Josh's line of thinking.
These kittens on the feeds right now are so adorable.

Yeah I guess. It doesn't really matter what he says though because I don't think there is any way these two would ever work together. She's totally expendable to him and he's totally repugnant to her. And ultimately this week he has the power. His logic doesn't matter when he's lying anyway. Having her and Mark up in case Jess does win veto is sound for his game because both of them would cut him loose no questions asked if the situations were reversed.

Temptation Comp
SUPER SPOILERS
Cody won, Jess in last guaranteed for Veto comp
Temptation Challenge and everyone sans XMas/Josh played.

Oh god Cody's the most unlikable player in the house, some people on Reddit are going about Cody being Final 2
Is this real lifeyes plz, for the lols
Is this real life
lmao
At this point I've been done with how shitty
is as a gameplayer. I can't wait until
gone.
Josh is offering Jessica a opportunity to talk, and Jess is bringing up shit from the HoH she won 3 weeks ago, Josh keeps pushing them to have a one on one conversation and Jessica is having none of it
At this point I've been done with how shitty
Jessica
she's
LOL and Alex is Paul's right hand man. Rookie mistake.
since when did Paul want to keep
Elena
They have to be some of the worst players in the history of this game. I don't think they're trying to even play Big Brother anymore, they just care about not having attention on them.
That comment was about Josh telling his plan to Alex, not Elena.
Wait, what? about what?

Veto Comp happening
Edit I may have spoken too soon
Christmas used her hex to replace Cody
Watch her ultimately get backdoored
By PAUL lmao

was she able to compete in this one or did she do it just to eliminate his spot?
I think the worst case in this situation is Elena wins, pulls herself off and then they have to put a pawn up or Cody again

I don't care for the guy really but there's no disputing the fact that he's good at comps.
I still think that him and Jessica sabotaged their own personal games from the beginning by getting together though
To lower Jessica's chance of getting off the block. Codys name got picked to play the veto comp and since he won the temptation he was only playing to save Jessica. Xmas used the hex to block him from playing.
Since Mark won, when he takes himself down, do we get another replacement nominee since he was one of Josh's and not from the temptation challenge? Or is it stick to just Elena/Jess?
nvm, got my answer.
this would be good for the house but do they really want to keep Jody safe for what, 3 weeks in a row now?

Mark save Jess
Josh wants Elena out anyways
Anyways I can't hate Jess too much, Raven and Matt are safe and haven't put up with as much shit as her
Their idiotic safety vexes me.
I hope Christmas gets backdoored for this!

If
is evicted, that'll take one number away from
but then it gives them a chance to control power again with the HOH and go after
.
I don't see how that helps anybody's game besides
Mark
Jess and Cody
everybody, especially Paul (after Jess read him like a book) or Josh
I don't see how that helps anybody's game besides
Jody.
At least Elena or Jess are somewhat of a house consensus on who should be out. But then again, keeping Mark and Cody together can be a disaster as well if everybody continues to not get along.

Who's in that photo up there?
Keeping Jody would be 2 votes against Paul/Alex in both evictions and jury. Though keeping Cody+Mark would have the same effect I guess.
Josh seems the have had enough of Paul's bullshit, hopefully others are too.

Why wouldn't he trust Paul? Paul has saved Josh twice, and he helped Josh get inside his social circle. Paul has also shown no signs of wanting to get rid of Josh either.

I forgot who was in it but Paul is not in his final 3. Jason/Alex iirc
Didn't recognize him lol
