So happy they eliminated BOB and we're back to the dirty tricks and backstabbing we love. I am combining Julie's premiere fibs into one goof on the tally because I'm feeling charitable, and because we didn't need a twist a week or BOB in the first place. After all the speculation in there and out here about where they'd put Julia's pic on the photo wall, it was rude but kind of hilarious that they gave her Jace's spot.
Won: Outback dinner (guest) VTE Jason He didn't do well on the Wall but I don't think anyone expected him to. Those big guys never do, and I think he's the biggest we've ever had. He's not as smooth with his Liz moves as he was before Julia came along, and that can't be a bad thing. Maybe the torches 'n pitchforks crowd will ease up a little.	Won: Outback dinner (guest) No vote (nominee) I had a lot more fun with her when she was playing the ditzy extra than this new Becky who fancies herself a gamer of the first degree. Like Clay, she learned about BB when she was recruited for it and like Clay, she thinks she knows everything there is to know about it after marathoning a few seasons. It doesn't work quite that well but hey, she's still here so more power to her.
Won: Outback dinner (guest) VTE Jason NOMINATED Even his hissy fits fail to amuse lately - being a petulant child about his mic, telling BB to 'shut up' and slamming doors just isn't the fun kind of hissy fit. I guess I should give him a little credit for letting Shelli continually talk about him inevitably getting the boot instead of her, but maybe he'll work his way up to rebelling or even questioning that assumption one day.	VTE Jason I know a lot of people are singing her praises, and she has been instrumental as a double agent (aka the dreaded floater word) more than once, but I just don't get much entertainment value from her. Maybe it's me.
Won: Outback dinner VTE Becky HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD Super big ups for doing so well on the Wall, for agreeing to Shelli's deal to end it, and then going back on the deal to put her and her plaything on the block. On top of all that, he handled their lengthy harangue like a champ, and he fended off Vanessa just as well every time she cornered him.	Won: 1 week Wackstreet VTE Jason He was the forgotten third finisher on the Wall, and he deserves credit for that. He's been getting tagged as a rat out here on Friday because he dared to talk game and tattle about Vanessa to Shelli.. who cares? He's been tagged a floater coaster up to now by his detractors. I figure those folks are just jealous of his huge popularity. There aren't many hamsters who trend on Twitter without being evicted or knocking someone out, but he keeps doing it, and now he's gotten the first mention of the season on 'The Soup' as well.
Won: ½ week Wackstreet No vote (not in yet) Kudos to her - to both of them really - for surviving long enough to be separated. It was fun seeing Julia get to be herself finally, sharing her own stories and experiences, and comparing notes with everyone about which twin was there for what.	Won: ½ week Wackstreet, Outback dinner VTE Jason She did well on the Wall, missing the finish by only 15 minutes or so. I love having them both in there: unlike everyone else's convo pairings, we know they'll be truthful when alone with each other.
Won: Gronk party cruise VTE Becky She did okay on the Wall, but of course she's been leaning all season so she was in great shape for it.	VTE Jason NOMINATED Legit ups for her performance on the Wall, with easy point 'n laugh ups for her ridiculous entitlement issues and resentment at being nominated, not to mention thinking it was all a calculated personal attack to rip her away from her boo.
VTE Jason He threw himself off the Wall like a non-champ, and licked his wrapped lolly the next day like a weirdo. They all keep bad-mouthing him but he's not going anywhere yet - he's a keeper! I especially love how he keeps feeding them false info, such as telling Shelli and Clay that he 'couldn't remember' anyone going back on an endurance drop deal before (ha!)	Won: Outback dinner No vote (HOH) Aww she had a bad day because her minons were nominated, partly mostly because of her manipulating them and then lying about it to them and everyone else. Boo freaking hoo. She's starting to act like Audrey, having issues whenever she's safe, but she's not a bit entertaining about it like Audrey was.
Won: 1 week Wackstreet EVICTED 7-2 Another superfan who found out it's easier to play BB from home, he fell into Vanessa's disastrous Renom Roulette wheel and went out earlier than many hoped. He got mouthy about many of them and popped some good funnies, but he laid around most of the time until it was too late. He gave us some of the best reaction faces of all time, especially the night they played squicky truth or dare - he even had a dedicated cam for much of it. He mentioned this site often, usually saying it's 'hard to navigate' so he'll probably never see this.	Won: Nothing She was erratic and unpredictable, and the random ways she kept them stirred up made for some of the best feeds in ages. And as a bonus, she featured in all the fights, many because the others didn't believe her telling truths. They did buy most of the fibs, and without 'empirical evidence,' but they fell for her wacky gameplay more than twice. She marooned herself in a bed and a dental chair, with some laughs in between, and she got the 2nd ever penalty vote. I enjoyed watching her, and will miss her.
Won: Nothing I haven't given many empty wheels before their time, and I don't think any of those got them as early as he did. But we've never had such a misogynistic, inappropriate, and unfunny pig before. CBS let him get away clean and that's what it is - I'm just glad to see the back of him.	Won: Power to nullify 3 votes She wasn't afraid to confront people nor to keep fighting to stay, which was good for us, but didn't help her much. She figured out the twins early but didn't leverage that to her advantage soon or well enough. Her 'game on' fight with Audrey and pantry rant to us were memorable, especially her catch-phrase 'get your life!' She was smart, funny, and volatile. She didn't let us take full advantage of #DaVonneHasADaughter, a hashtag that was too good to be true.
Won: Nothing He was like a parody of all the former surf boys we've had, with all the worst qualities of asshat hamsters past rolled into one. He verbally beat up on Steve a few times but the primetime version earned him viewer loathing, even if his actoring was lousy. He ranted, streaked, flipped us off, and mostly talked about himself, but he promised to save us all someday through music.	They erroneously said last year that BB16 would have 'the most houseguests ever' but this year they really did, with 17 total after the twins split into separate entities. Now my symmetry for this section is out of whack and I don't know what to put here.
