Yesterday was a fairly quiet day in the old BB OTT house. The early part of the day was spent lounging around and waiting for the live chat with Julie. BB gave the house guests purple clothes to wear in honor of Spirit Day and the new clothes helped to lift the spirits of the house.
Kryssie and the rest of the LNJ tried to figure out who on the girls' side is the evil mastermind. They narrowed the field to Scott and Alex. After initially thinking Alex, they more or less decided it was Scott. Jason has gotten the attention of Danielle (who's actually a pretty good instinctive player on the rare occasions everything isn't about her) who thinks he and Justin are trying to divert the attention from Alex in the hopes of hooking up with Alex later in the game to pick off the rest of the LNJ. Kryssie, Neeley and Danielle may now be looking to remove Jason a bit sooner than they'd originally planned, but not immediately.
Scott is ready to throw himself on the sword to save Alex this week. He spoke to the live feed watchers yesterday and admitted making a terrible mistake week one in voting out Cornbread. Had he followed the wishes of the girls they'd have gotten out Danielle and had the numbers to control the game. Scott had thought then that Shane was his most loyal partner though and had followed Shane and that one move had endangered the game for the rest of his allies and led to Monte being voted out and Alex in danger this week. He hopes that his leaving will buy Alex and the girls more time in the house as they deserve to be there. With a bit of luck none of the girls or Scott need go this week.
Julie's chat went well and everyone had fun. It's kind of neat to see Julie off the script on these chats and reacting/responding to the house guests. Julie informed the house guests that there would be three finalists for America to vote on as the winner this year. With ten house guests still in the house, that means only seven more need leave. With only seven opportunities to take out people you know/suspect would win over anyone else (Jason/Justin) those two likely moved way up on the kill lists. Presumed lesser players like Shelby will likely skate through for a while now as the house focuses on taking out the big fish. Dull witted players like Kryssie who think they're able to win over anyone won't care, but the more strategic players (Ball Smashers, Danielle, Scott) will all be looking at moving a bit more quickly to get those guys out. No sane player should want to be up against either of those two in the final three which means they've both got to go sometime in the next seven evictions. If you wait too late, you hand them the big check.
Kryssie had a series of conversations with the the girls but she had Justin hiding in the bathtub during the conversations to eavesdrop. The girls soon figured that out and when Whitney's interview with her holiness ended she shouted out "Bye Justin!" as she was leaving showing that the girls weren't idiots. Kryssie is convinced America gave her a Care Package to help her side of the house and they gave one to Scott because he's a moron who wouldn't know what to do with it. (Okay, sure.) Kryssie thinks her side of the house is like a family and it tears them apart to lose someone while the other side is just a bunch of people who couldn't care less about one another. She thinks America sees that the LNJ is a big family and loves them for it.
In a related note, Operation Konfound, Konfuse, Konsternate, Kounter Kryssie which has the immediate goal of defusing Kryssie's HOH by giving the Care Package to Alex and ultimately getting Neeley evicted seems to be moving in the right direction. (I've given Alex all 40 of my votes.) The online polls all pretty much point to Alex being the clear winner. Step two will be the Have Not picks, but they're not as vital as the America's Nominee. We need Neeley as America's Nominee to really pull this off. Then it will be up to the Ball Smashers plus Scott to pull out the POV win to finalize the deal.
Justin wants Neeley and Danielle gone soon. I'm pretty sure he'd happily get rid of them over the Ball Smashers that he now refers to as "my girls." He and Jason talked about that and Jason said it was too soon to talk like that, but I get the vibe Jason is losing interest in the Kryssie, Neeley, Danielle side of his alliance. Those three (Kryssie, Neeley, Danielle) are pretty solid and will be hard for Jason to get rid of if he keeps them together too long. He really wanted Danielle gone over Shane to help break them up last week, but Scott took out Shane instead. It'll be interesting to see if Jason sticks his neck out to save Scott this week. Justin is still tight with Kryssie and that has to trouble Jason a bit also.
Shelby's figured out that Scott and Alex made a deal with Jason/Justin for safety but seems okay with it for now. She may use that for ammunition down the road however to save her own game if it becomes necessary. The Have Nots will end at midnight tonight and Alex, Shelby and Danielle will be very happy about that. Jason is still hiding the Krackel bars, but once again was seen smuggling the bags of candy to the London Bedroom, so if the Krackel war resumes, the girls know where to look for the Krackel bars. With Shelby a Have Not the interest in finding the Krackel bars has died down a bit.
The Care Package voting ends at one o'clock ET today and the Care Package will be delivered at 4:00 PM ET today. Indications are that Alex will win it, but if you haven't voted, vote early and vote often. An Alex win would send a message to Kryssie and the rest of the LNJ, and might hasten the fractures that are developing on that side of the house. The arrival of the Care Package will likely lead to some interesting discussions in the house.
Just a commentary here. It's going to be brutal to go back to the long blackouts and endless fish/Jeff we get in the summer BB after this season. Seeing everything live has been great. Having a real schedule with events taking place at specific times has been great. Seeing everything from day one has been great. It would be amazing if CBS opted to adopt these same practices with the numbered BB in the summer.

Big Brother Over The Top Live Feed Spoilers and Updates for Thursday 10/20/2016!!!
Yesterday saw the house largely just lying around killing time waiting for the live eviction. At the live eviction the tie vote went down (as planned by both sides) and Scott broke the tie, evicting Shane. Then the house gathered for the HOH ceremony and heard the doorbell ring and Paul with Pablo entered the house. The house was incredibly tense before Paul came in as Kryssie was furious that someone from her side of the house was voted out. "He's a person!" she yelled at Scott. (Apparently Monte and Cornbread weren't.) Scott's pillows then got rubbed in Neeley's (I think though possibly Kryssie's) armpits again. It's their unique and "classy" way of signalling their displeasure with the other side of the house.
The HOH comp was a ball rolling comp where they had to collect tokens they could then trade for balls to roll down the twisted plank they used in BB 18 and have the ball fall into the box at the end. Multiple house guests took shots with Morgan and Justin both rolling balls down the ramp a tick too fast that rolled over the box instead of falling into it. Kryssie then took some shots and rolled a ball into the box and won HOH. She celebrated wildly and was congratulated by everyone. (This morning while I type this she tells how grossed out she was by having Alex hug her and congratulate her. I guess the way Kryssie and the rest of the LNJ shunned Scott after he won is the "classy" way to handle a win by an opponent rather than congratulating them and hugging them.)
Kryssie is rapidly developing the world's worst case of HOH-itis. So the intense trash talking resumed by the LNJ as the girls mulled their fate downstairs with their typical good humor. Alex pretty much knows she needs to win POV to have a shot. (In fact the early online reports seem to indicate Alex as the favorite for this week's Care Package, which will make her safe. Then Neeley, Jason and Justin as the Have Nots, and Neeley as America's Nominee. There's a certain amount of love for the idea of having Neeley leave under Kryssie's HOH just as Cornbread and Monte were forced out under an ally's HOH.)
Kryssie's current view is to nominate Morgan and Whitney with the plan to backdoor Alex. She wants America to put up Scott. America seems to have other plans and the more we hear Kryssie belch and gloat, the more likely it is this HOH will backfire on Kryssie in a big way. Kryssie, Jason, Neeley and Danielle have no respect for the other side of the house and considers Alex the only player on the other side. They think the girls just hang out together since they're all so boring and dull. (They have no idea how strategic the girls are.) The LNJ is the most hate filled group we've had on BB for quite some time. The four girls are solid and are planning to lose Scott if they have a choice in who goes this week over one of the girls.
Let's look at the vote count this week if things play out as expected. With Whitney and Morgan on the block against Neeley as America's nominee (assuming the POV isn't used, but it likely would be if won by anyone other than Alex, or Scott) Then the girls side would have Alex, Shelby and Scott voting. With Neeley on the block and Kryssie as HOH the LNJ would have Danielle, Justin and Jason voting. America would own the tie breaker assuming the votes split along house lines. If things play out as anticipated, America would likely vote out Neeley (deservedly so) and the heads of the LNJ would likely explode. That could be fun to watch.
Starting at one o'clock ET today the voting for America's Care Package opens. We'll learn tomorrow if America follows through on the save Alex part of the plan. Then after that we get the Have Not voting going. I doubt that Jason, Justin and Neeley will be the Have Nots, but I expect Neeley anyway to be a Have Not. She's not especially popular. Then will come the voting for America's Nominee and I could also see that going Neeley's way. This is another week where the POV largely controls what happens. This is a seriously divided house right now. Shelby seems safe this week as the LNJ consider her an idiot. (They have no clue she's a 24 year old law school graduate playing dumb.) Alex seems most at risk followed by Scott. They think Alex is controlling Scott though and he's her puppet. They're scared to death of Alex.
If things play out right (and they probably won't as a lot of stuff has to go right) Kryssie could see her best friend in the game (Neeley) going home on her HOH. Her meltdown over that next Wednesday could be one of the most epic meltdowns in the history of BB. She'll no doubt consult the rule book and decide America was trying to force her to quit so America should be removed from the game. It's going to be a interesting week to see how the game turns. Kryssie, Neeeley, Danielle, and even Jason are rapidly becoming some of the most hated BB players ever, and they think they're beloved. Reality may just jump up and bite them this week.

Big Brother Over The Top Live Feed Spoilers and Updates for Wednesday 10/19/2016!!!
Yesterday saw the POV ceremony take place where Justin used his POV to save Kryssie and Shane took her place. Alex pocketed her POV. With Danielle, Shane and Neeley on the block, lots of scheming then took place. Danielle decided she wanted a tie vote and for Scott to have to break the tie thinking that would get more blood on his hands and hurt his game. That's also exactly what Scott wants, so we're likely to see a tie or a near tie depending on how America votes.
Alliance shuffling continues. Alex and Scott confirmed their new alliance with Jason and Justin. I think all four have largely given up on including Neeley as she's intently focused on winning HOH and putting up Alex and getting Alex out of the house. Scott also wants to keep Shelby safe saying that Shelby and Alex are his ideal final three. The Ball Smashers alliance (Alex, Morgan, Shelby, Whitney at the core with Scott nearby and even Justin somewhat involved) is still solid. Alex and Scott have done a clever job of getting themselves safe this week by allying with everyone but Kryssie, Neeley and Danielle.
Morgan is promising to unleash the real Morgan in the HOH comp tomorrow night. She's been throwing comps to this point and no longer plans to throw the next HOH comp. The happy cheerleader Morgan we've been seeing in the house is apparently a facade that Morgan's put up to get through the game and the "real" Morgan is a bit more intense. The house seems pretty set on targeting Danielle this coming week, except for Kryssie and Neeley. Kryssie, Neeley and Danielle want Alex and Scott up. If Jason or Justin win HOH they'll be in a tough spot protecting Scott and Alex. Shelby and Whitney will likely be their targets.
It should be a fun night tonight as Shane gets shown the door and the new HOH comp takes place. Expect lots of fighting for this HOH as much of the house really wants the HOH. Morgan, Shelby, Whitney and a handicapped Alex will all be playing hard to win. Jason and Justin probably would prefer not to win. Neeley will be ready to kill to win. Kryssie will be Kryssie. Danielle will be playing hard to win. A Shelby win (improbable but not impossible) could be most interesting. Shelby might just put up Jason and Justin to get one of the big two in the house out. It'll be another long night with the HOH comp starting at midnight. It should be a good one though.

Big Brother Over The Top Live Feed Spoilers and Updates for Tuesday 10/18/2016!!!
Well, that was a fun day. Yesterday saw the house awakened early to prepare for the the America's Nominee announcement and the picking of the POV players. Everyone gathered in the living room and watched as the faces flashed on the screen. Then finally the image froze on Danielle and she was America's Nominee. Jason's side of the house looked stunned, (especially Danielle and Neeley) and then the POV players were picked and Alex and Justin were the picks. The two sides then retreated to their turf, upstairs in the HOH room for the girls and Scott, and to the London bedroom for the Late Night Jamboree.
Danielle lay crying in the London bedroom while Neeley paced the floor cursing. Justin looked shocked and Kryssie just stared ahead in disbelief. They never seriously considered the possibility that one of them could be America's Nominee. That kind of derailed their momentum a bit,
Meanwhile upstairs, a wild celebration broke out among Scott's group as they finally had a chance to get someone from the other side out. It took three HOH's, but finally they could get a victory. Some quick head counting of the photos on the board in Scott's room showed that no matter what, someone on the other side of the house would be leaving. Scott really wants Shane out so to make that happen they need to have someone other than Danielle win the POV and use it.
Soon it was time for the POV comp. Scott announced the POV would be the double POV where there would be two winners. It was a puzzle comp where two players would go head to head against one another. Jason's side decided to get out Alex and Scott as quickly as possible then play head to head for the POV's to take down two of their players and hopefully talk Scott into putting up Shelby as the replacement. In the first round Kryssie went first and chose to compete against Alex. This turned out to be a very bad choice as Alex flew through the puzzle and won easily. Kryssie was eliminated. Danielle then picked Scott. This was a good choice by Danielle as Scott was horrible and Danielle won easily. Neeley was up next and she chose Alex again and once again Alex flew past her and won easily.
We were now down to our final three and with two POV's in play whoever lost the next round would be eliminated.Danielle was dancing and celebrating knowing that with Justin picking the next player she'd be safe as he'd pick Alex. Then Justin picked Danielle. This surprised Danielle the teensiest bit. As she took her spot opposite Justin you could feel the rage coming from her. She then assumed Justin must be planning to throw the POV to her, but that would give Alex a POV and it made no sense to Danielle. So the final round starts with Justin against Danielle and Justin flies through the comp and races around to hit the buzzer beating Danielle and winning the second POV giving the POV's to Alex and Justin.
Danielle ran off the stage and crouched down in tears behind the sofa, sobbing hysterically as Shane tried to console her. The house was reopened and Danielle ran in and pushed the call light on the DR door several times but never gets it unlocked, so she then runs to the London bedroom and climbs under the covers sobbing hysterically. Jason, Scott and Shane meanwhile are having a quick smoke outside before rejoining the house. The girls head back upstairs to celebrate yet another win and Jason's crew tries to deal with Danielle.
Jason's side of the house pretty quickly decides they can live without Danielle and that she's more trouble than she's worth for them, so bye bye Danielle. Meanwhile upstairs another quick vote count ensures Scott that his side can vote out Shane no matter what and the girls confirm that they will. They then suggest to Scott that letting the house think they're voting out Danielle might be the best strategic move for them as that way Jason's side will vote to evict Danielle, but Shane will leave and Danielle will be isolated knowing her side of the house turned on her and voted her out. They think that will rattle Jason's side before the HOH comp. This is agreed to. So, the plan is to let Jason's side think they're voting out Danielle while they're really targeting Shane.
Danielle finally dried the tears enough to look up Justin and asked what the heck he was thinking. He explained that he wasn't thinking and just picked her to go up against. She explained that she'd have been safe if he picked Alex and he was like, "Oh yeah, I didn't even think of that." That didn't make her much happier.
Scot and Alex, concerned about their immediate safety since Scott can't play in the next HOH comp as an outgoing HOH and Alex will be handicapped as a result of her punishment in the last POV comp decided to make a deal for safety for this coming week where they team up with Jason, Justin and Neeley (the three biggest comp threats from the other side with Shane leaving this week and Danielle a bit distracted) for safety in a new alliance. Justin and Jason were fine with this, but they weren't sure Neeley would go along. (I suspect this is a one week only deal where Scott, Alex and their side weren't really targeting those three this coming week anyway, but needed some safety. I'm not sure either side will follow up on the deal, but it's a good tactical move on both sides.)
Today we'll have the POV ceremony where Justin will use one of the POV's to save Kryssie and Scott will put up Shane as the replacement. Then Alex will pocket her POV and the ceremony will end leaving Shane, Danielle and Neeley as the nominees for eviction this week. Scott and Alex through their maneuvering will likely be safe if anyone from their side wins HOH, or if Jason, Justin, or Neeley and even likely Danielle wins HOH from the other side. Their only real risk is a Kryssie win and that's unlikely. Even if Kryssie won, she'd likely consult Jason and Justin as to what to do and they'd likely protect Scott and Alex. Neeley is still an issue for Scott and Alex as she vowed to put up everyone on the other side of the house and get them out if she won HOH after finding out America's Nominee, but it's hard to nominate five people when you can only nominate two.
With the help of America's Care Package and America's Nominee, Shane will now be leaving. He's not happy about this as he doesn't want to leave at the hands of Scott. Had Shane stayed true to his original alliance he'd be safe, but backstabbing two of your own alliance in the first two weeks tends to make you expendable. With Shane gone the next HOH comp will come down to a handicapped Alex, Shelby, Morgan, and Whitney competing against Kryssie, Neeley, Jason, Justin, and Danielle. Assuming the handicap is serious, then it's largely Shelby, Morgan and Whitney against the rest. That's a pretty strong trio for both physical and mental comps, but they're outnumbered and the other side now has to play and can't count on America giving them the game. This next HOH will be huge. A win by Alex's side could really help them a ton with both Alex and Scott then able to compete again the following week. I'm pretty sure we'll see Shelby playing hard this week. She knows she's a big target for the other side and she likely wants to take out a big target or two. A Shelby win could see Jason and Justin as the nominees. She tentatively felt out the idea of backdooring Jason this week, but Scott immediately shut it down.
So later today we'll have the POV ceremony where Justin will likely take down Kryssie. Scott will then put up Shane. The only way things could backfire would be if Alex has to use her POV first and she pockets it, then Justin also pockets his leaving Shane off the block and Danielle, Kryssie and Neeley as the nominees. Neeley might then become the target for eviction this week over Danielle since Jason and Justin told Scott how they don't know if they can control Neeley. They might let the house think Danielle's the target, but vote out Neeley, or they could just go ahead and vote out Danielle. I'm pretty sure Kryssie would not be happy with Justin pocketing the veto after promising to use it on her. No mater what though, someone from Jason's side of the house is leaving this week. Most likely Shane.
Paul the runner up of BB 18 will be hosting the HOH comp on Wednesday night. That could be interesting. Paul's not the most stable of hosts possible, so we'll have to see how that works out. I suspect he'll have Pablo in tow. Alex and Scott will likely be thrilled by this and could finally learn who won BB 18.
Danielle lay crying in the London bedroom while Neeley paced the floor cursing. Justin looked shocked and Kryssie just stared ahead in disbelief. They never seriously considered the possibility that one of them could be America's Nominee. That kind of derailed their momentum a bit,
Meanwhile upstairs, a wild celebration broke out among Scott's group as they finally had a chance to get someone from the other side out. It took three HOH's, but finally they could get a victory.

With Shane gone the next HOH comp will come down to a handicapped Alex, Shelby, Morgan, and Whitney competing against Kryssie, Neeley, Jason, Justin, and Danielle. Assuming the handicap is serious, then it's largely Shelby, Morgan and Whitney against the rest. That's a pretty strong trio for both physical and mental comps, but they're outnumbered and the other side now has to play and can't count on America giving them the game. This next HOH will be huge. A win by Alex's side could really help them a ton with both Alex and Scott then able to compete again the following week. I'm pretty sure we'll see Shelby playing hard this week. She knows she's a big target for the other side and she likely wants to take out a big target or two. A Shelby win could see Jason and Justin as the nominees. She tentatively felt out the idea of backdooring Jason this week, but Scott immediately shut it down.
So later today we'll have the POV ceremony where Justin will likely take down Kryssie. Scott will then put up Shane. The only way things could backfire would be if Alex has to use her POV first and she pockets it, then Justin also pockets his leaving Shane off the block and Danielle, Kryssie and Neeley as the nominees. Neeley might then become the target for eviction this week over Danielle since Jason and Justin told Scott how they don't know if they can control Neeley. They might let the house think Danielle's the target, but vote out Neeley, or they could just go ahead and vote out Danielle. I'm pretty sure Kryssie would not be happy with Justin pocketing the veto after promising to use it on her. No mater what though, someone from Jason's side of the house is leaving this week. Most likely Shane.
Paul the runner up of BB 18 will be hosting the HOH comp on Wednesday night. That could be interesting. Paul's not the most stable of hosts possible, so we'll have to see how that works out. I suspect he'll have Pablo in tow. Alex and Scott will likely be thrilled by this and could finally learn who won BB 18.

Big Brother Over The Top Live Feed Spoilers and Updates!!
Yesterday saw the house stay relatively calm as everyone waited for the second safety ceremony. The Krackel war didn't resume and everyone was mostly chill through the day. The HOH camera made another appearance and more photos were taken. Danielle vowed when she wins HOH she'll only take photos of her side of the house and not anyone else. Scott spent a lot of time rehearsing his speech while Alex and Shelby experimented with slop creations. Justin continued to float between the two sides and got himself in a little trouble when he told Shelby she'd have been one of his nominees if he'd won the first HOH. I'm pretty sure that's moved him well up the hit list for Shelby. She'd been pretty sure she and Justin were pretty good with one another. (The rest of Jason's side refers to Shelby as the wounded gazelle they want to take down.)
Finally it was time for the safety ceremony. Jason's side of the house didn't mingle for part one of the safety ceremony after doing so for each of the two previous weeks of the safety ceremony, so the girls went outside to be on the couches with them for part two of the ceremony. At the end of the safety ceremony, Kryssie and Neeley were the nominees. Neither one took it well despite knowing that's exactly what the outcome would be and why. (Scott had told Jason and Jason had relayed the word to the rest of his crew.) Scott then came down and explained his reasoning to the house and the two sides then split up and went about their business. Jason's side launched into several tirades about how the girls only came out to see their faces and watch them get put up. Neeley was mad that she was being made a pawn. Kryssie was sure Scott broke the rules and wanted him tossed from the game.
Kryssie then went into the store room and pulled out the rule book to read the rules and became even more convinced she was right. Scott had said that Kryssie wasn't good in certain social situations (the pool photo shoot is what he was referring to) but Kryssie interpreted it as being in relation to her behavior after someone dared to touched her soiled underwear bag. She claims she was ready to quit the game after someone moved her bag of undies. She apparently believes Scott was attempting to encourage her to quit the game and that's against the rules, so Scott should be punished severely. The DR didn't agree which made Kryssie even angrier.
Jason's side of the house is more than a little tired of Danielle and wouldn't really mind losing her at this point, but want to use the showmance as a meat shield to go further in the game. They think Alex and Scott are in an alliance but they don't think the other girls (Whitney, Shelby, Morgan) are allied with anyone and are floating. They think Alex is the brains of the Scott/Alex alliance. Scott thinks he can pull in Jason and Justin to his side and thinks Kryssie is at the bottom of the other side's alliance. (Justin by the way is trying to stay in the middle and let each of the sides kill each other while he stays safe.) After several more hours of calling the other side of the house every name imaginable, Jason's side went to bed to get ready for today's revealing of America's Nominee and the picking of the POV players followed by the POV comp.
The early polling looks pretty positive for Danielle being America's Nominee, but the polls were wrong on Kryssie being a Have Not, so you can't trust them too much. (Kryssie's meltdown when she's a Have Not will be glorious to behold. She's not the most mentally stable person to begin with, so her being a Have Not should be a lot of fun.) The voting ends at noon today (ET) and then at/around one (ET) today the reveal of America's Nominee will take place followed immediately by the picking of the POV players. I anticipate Scott picking Alex and maybe Morgan as the players, assuming he's got the dexterity to feel their names on the chips. Then at four (ET) the POV comp will take place. Sometime before the POV comp Scott will have to declare which POV they're playing for. It won't be the Diamond POV which would give whoever won it the power to name a replacement. It's currently planned to be the Double POV which lets two people win POV. Scott made that call assuming one of his side would be the America's Nominee. When he sees that Danielle (hopefully) is the nominee, he may change that plan to the Boomerang POV where there's just one winner but they get to use the POV twice. That would keep Scott's side absolutely safe if Danielle is America's Nominee.
If Danielle is America's Nominee it'll be interesting to see how her side of the house handles that bit of news. With only two POV's possibly in play and three of Jason's side on the block and Jason, Justin and Shane as possible replacements, it'll be an uneasy afternoon for them. Scott's side is anticipating one of them being on the block and they're mentally prepared for it having gone through it the first two weeks. Jason has been telling everyone he's the glue that hold his side of the house together and if things break right (Double POV in play) with Shane and Danielle winning POV, we would see Jason and Justin going up as the replacements. I doubt that they'd muster the votes to evict Jason, but who knows. The worst case scenario for Scott if he chooses the Double POV would be if two of Jason's side that weren't nominated (say Shane and Jason) won the POV's forcing Scott to put up Justin and someone from his side. The Boomerang POV would prevent that possibility though as only one person could win it and even if Shane won it and used it on Danielle and Kryssie, Scott would still have Justin and Jason as possible replacements.
Monday's are an active day in the old BB OTT house and today could be especially interesting to watch. We could finally see one of Jason's side as the only option to leave the house on Wednesday. How his side handles that will be interesting to observe.

Big Brother Over The Top Live Feed Spoilers and Updates for Sunday 10/16/2016!!!
And the battle between good and evil continues. I can honestly say the evil side of the house (Jason, Kryssie, Danielle, Shane, Neeley) is as bad as any group of house guests we've ever had. They're behaving worst than Chima, Lydia, Natalie, Jessie, Ronnie in BB eleven. They're the most entitled, least self-aware group of house guests I've ever seen.
Yesterday saw the Have Nots announced and despite leading in every poll I saw, Kryssie managed to avoid being a Have Not. The Have Nots ended up being Danielle, Alex and Shelby. You'd think this would be a wake up call to Danielle and her side of the house that maybe, just maybe America was tiring of them, but no. Jason explained that America only put Danielle up because it was Whitney's birthday and they didn't want her to be a Have Not on her birthday.
The girls' side of the house resumed the hunt for the Krackels yesterday with lots of good humor, searching high and low. Along they way one of them touched Kryssie's bag of soiled underwear, which apparently is sacred to Kryssie, and she became so upset by this invasion of her privacy that she claims to have almost quit over it. It pays to remember that less than 24 hours earlier Jason, and his side of the house went through all of the girls' drawers looking for the Krackels and then rubbed their armpits on the girls' pillows and on Shelby's jacket that Shane then tried on to stretch out. Kryssie thought that was all hilarious. Touching her bag of soiled underwear however is disgraceful.
The girls decided that they'd then hide something the other side of the house loves, their Coke. They found a hiding place under the bathroom sink and stashed the two liter bottle there. This had Shane and Justin looking all through the house for the Coke and more than a little confused over how the girls could hide a bottle of Coke that big. The girls kept offering to exchange the Coke for the Krackels but the other side refused. To the girls it was all good fun and they were having fun with it even with Justin who was laughing and having a good time about it. To Kryssie it was the worst thing since the dawn of time.
This was followed a bit later by the girls and Justin playing the "What are the odds" game where someone would ask a question like "What are the odds Alex would wear socks on her hands during the safety ceremony" and Alex would say "one in ten" and then they'd count "one, two, three" and have to answer with a number between one and ten. If they both said the same number then the person would have to do it. By the time the safety ceremony rolled around Alex had socks on her hands, Justin was wearing Morgan's American flag bikini top, Shelby had two talking pickles in her hands, Whitney had a mustache drawn on her face, and Morgan was wearing her tightest shorts with a strategically placed zucchini.
Jason's crew hid out in the London bedroom during the safety ceremony so they wouldn't have to be with the girls largely to protest the girls hiding the Coke and touching Kryssie's bag. Scott made Justin, Alex, Whitney and Jason safe.
Danielle, who had claimed the biggest trampoline in the Have Not room for her and Shane (who's not a Have Not but he's so whipped he'll sleep there anyway) then decided she wanted the better blankets too, so she took all the blankets from the Have Not room. When later confronted she claimed to only have taken them to wash them. (Yeah, right. That's not what she said earlier.) Shelby then retaliated by taking the bigger trampoline that Danielle had claimed.
Nothing much should happen today until the second half of the safety ceremony tonight where if things play out as expected Neeley and Kryssie will be the nominees. Jason's side is appealing to America again to put up one of the girls' side of the house, but Danielle seems to be leading in the polls again. Monday America's Nominee will be announced (please let it be Danielle) and the picking of the POV players will take place. God willing Danielle will be one of the nominees and voted out. In a perfect world Kryssie would stay on the block with her just for the stress it would cause Kryssie. With the Double POV or Boomerang POV in play, there's a good chance either Scott or one of the girls will win. (Scott's a super fan so he should know to feel for the names of the house guests he wants to compete on the chips.) If we lose another of the girls' side of the house I'll be about to give up on the year. When one side has to win every comp to stay alive and the other side can just lie around and do nothing, the game is no fun. BB gave too much power to the fans this year and it's killing the season.

Big Brother Over The Top Live Feed Spoilers and Updates for Saturday 10/15/2016!!!
Yesterday saw the arrival of the Care Package which drifted down and was caught by Morgan who read the tag and announced it was for Scott. Scott was pleased to hear this and after consideration decided the Care Package meant he needed to change his nominations. He had been planning to put up Shane and Danielle but since the Care Package meant that either he had to pick the Diamond Power of Veto where the winner could name the replacement, even of America's Nominee, or the Double, or Boomerang Veto which would allow two house guests to be saved, Scott decided he needed to put up Kryssie and Neeley as his initial nominees and then backdoor his real target (Shane.)
This is a pretty solid plan, but there's one flaw. Scott's planning to use the Double POV instead of the Boomerang POV. He doesn't know that America is planning to put up Danielle. He's anticipating America putting up someone from his side. He thinks there's a good chance someone on his side will win one of the two POV's so they can put up Shane and get him out. The risk is that two members of the Late Night Jamboree (say Shane and Jason) who aren't the nominees will win the POV's and take down Danielle and Neeley leaving just Justin and one of Scott's side as possible replacements. Chances are once he sees who the America Nominee is (in all likelihood Danielle) he'll rethink the strategy. The Boomerang POV lets the winner take down two people, but that would still give Scott two people in the Late Night Jamboree to go up as replacements.
The Krackel wars escalated when Jason discovered the Krackels missing from under the sofa in the Yoga room when he was searching for an electrical outlet. He then rallied his side to find them and they searched the girls' clothing drawers to find them and then hid them under Shelby's bed assuming the girls won't look there. Jason and Shane in a sign of their maturity and decency then decided to rub their armpits on the girls' pillows and Jason also rubbed his armpits on one of the girl's jackets while Shane squeezed into it to stretch it out of shape. (They're just so classy. No wonder America loves them!)
In the recap show we got a DR from Neeley where she called Alex a heifer and insisted she wanted Alex gone for breaking her deal with Kryssie. Then the live DR's started where Jason told America to put up Shelby or Alex as the nominees and Alex, Shelby and Whitney as the Have Nots. (Polling indicates that Kryssie and Danielle are leading the way in the Have Not voting with Shelby then Jason not far behind. I'm hoping a late push for Jason gets him put in there with the other two.)
Shane then had a DR session where he called Scott a terrible player. (If there's anyone who knows terrible game play it's Scott. He was safe with two alliances then systematically voted out one of them.) His target list is Alex, Shelby and Scott.
Kryssie then went into the live DR and reminded us all again how she should have just guessed 72 in the HOH comp since it's her favorite number and has such special significance in her life. (If you have the live feeds on for more than ten minutes since the HOH comp you've heard Kryssie say this again, and again and again.) She thinks her biggest threat in the game long term is Neeley. She's happy her Late Night Jamboree is playing such a clean game. (Most of us weren't aware that they were playing at all and don't necessarily consider smearing the other side with charges of racism, bigotry and homophobia playing a clean game, but whatever. The gulping down/hiding the Have Not add-in foods so they have to eat slop plain is also really a classy move on their part. Also the way Jason and Shane wiped their armpits all over the girls' pillows doesn't necessarily fall into the 'clean' category for most of us, but whatever.)
Justin was up next and is just Justin. He's happy Scott won HOH as Scott is cool with him and he's cool with Scott. I really get the vibe that Justin is moving away from the Late Night Jamboree side of the house.
Up next was the puppy killer, aka Danielle. She begged America not to be a Have Not (Ha! Ha! Ha!) and swore that she'd see to it that whoever America nominated went home this week. (She doesn't know that she's leading in all the polls for America's Nominee. Surprise! Truthfully she's probably already said and done enough stuff to ensure she goes home soon, if not this week.)
After the live DR's the house guests were still on an inside lock down due to a seemingly never ending Bruce Springsteen concert nearby that they could overhear. They had a party to celebrate Whitney's birthday and the house got some beer and wine to celebrate. Whitney smoked one of Jason's cigarettes and got a bit sick, but seemed okay later. Morgan is finally off the slop and she's very happy about that. Finally the concert ended and they were let loose into the yard to discover they got a grill. The first return of the grill in several years. Expect lots of grilling over the next few days until they either blow it up (I forget who it was a few years ago who lit it with a big bang) or they lose interest in it.
Kryssie and Neeley were chatting about Danielle and oddly enough, neither one is all that thrilled with her as an ally any longer. They seem to feel that she only wants to talk about herself and is a bit spoiled and entitled. They're also very unhappy with Scott's plan to nominate them as pawns. Doesn't he know that America loves them and will hate him for putting up anyone from the Late Night Jamboree? The fool!
Today will see the voting end for the Have Nots. (Get your votes in for Jason, Kryssie, and Danielle before one o'clock ET.) Then later today the Have Nots will be announced. I'm hoping Shelby isn't a Have Not as putting her and Danielle together in the same room could be bad for Shelby. Shelby is somewhat puppy-like and we all know how Danielle treats puppies. Then later tonight the first Safety Ceremony will take place.
Pretty much everyone in the house is now looking forward to Monday. The Late Night Jamboree wants to see which of the girl's America nominates so they can target their smear campaign against her, while the girls' side wants to play in the POV and win it to lock in the nominations.
Scott's winning the Care Package sent a minimal shockwave through the LNJ side of the house, but they quickly adapted and assumed America was trying to punish Scott in some manner. They just know that America loves them and will now put up the three eligible girls as Have Nots and then put up Alex or Shelby as America's Nominee. Justin meanwhile is spending more and more time on the side of Scott and the girls. "I'll just be over here chillin with the girls while y'all commit suicide ovah thar." The Have Not reveal could be, should be fun today. Splitting Shane and Danielle may require a surgical team like that used to separate Siamese twins, but hopefully Shane isn't so whipped that he sleeps in the Have Not room with Danielle even though he isn't a Have Not. Things are starting to flip in the old BBOTT house and things are heating up.
This is a pretty solid plan, but there's one flaw. Scott's planning to use the Double POV instead of the Boomerang POV. He doesn't know that America is planning to put up Danielle. He's anticipating America putting up someone from his side. He thinks there's a good chance someone on his side will win one of the two POV's so they can put up Shane and get him out.

Doesn't he know that America loves them and will hate him for putting up anyone from the Late Night Jamboree? The fool!
Today will see the voting end for the Have Nots. (Get your votes in for Jason, Kryssie, and Danielle before one o'clock ET.) Then later today the Have Nots will be announced. I'm hoping Shelby isn't a Have Not as putting her and Danielle together in the same room could be bad for Shelby. Shelby is somewhat puppy-like and we all know how Danielle treats puppies. Then later tonight the first Safety Ceremony will take place.
Pretty much everyone in the house is now looking forward to Monday. The Late Night Jamboree wants to see which of the girl's America nominates so they can target their smear campaign against her, while the girls' side wants to play in the POV and win it to lock in the nominations.
Scott's winning the Care Package sent a minimal shockwave through the LNJ side of the house, but they quickly adapted and assumed America was trying to punish Scott in some manner. They just know that America loves them and will now put up the three eligible girls as Have Nots and then put up Alex or Shelby as America's Nominee. Justin meanwhile is spending more and more time on the side of Scott and the girls. "I'll just be over here chillin with the girls while y'all commit suicide ovah thar." The Have Not reveal could be, should be fun today. Splitting Shane and Danielle may require a surgical team like that used to separate Siamese twins, but hopefully Shane isn't so whipped that he sleeps in the Have Not room with Danielle even though he isn't a Have Not. Things are starting to flip in the old BBOTT house and things are heating up.
