Adam's Saturday rating

[blindwilliedunn]

hey, dingo! Great job again on your annual Herculean (or would that be Zenobian? Boudican?) effort - I hope I speak for all your fans excited about the shout-outs you so richly deserve!

Having said that...

I have to navel-gaze a bit on your neutralization of Adam's rating due to his protracted quiet after winning Saturday's veto. I know you prioritize entertainment over gameplay, but I thought the fact that this guy didn't 'lord it over everyone' was nice strategy, keeping it on the downlow as he revs up to do some damage down the stretch. With his game knowledge and study habits, he looks like the only noob with a shot at winning this thing (Kalia, Porsche and now Shelly not looking likely to secure the votes. I'll cheer for Adam just so his "I f%$&ed up" monologue is preserved for posterity.)

Secondly, for a show that is primarily plot-point driven, I thought it was interesting that we had an actual 'whodunit?' suspense for a while, especially with all the false conclusions populating Twitter during that time.

off topic, but since I don't post that much anymore I'll leave this here: whole-heartedly agree with your attitude toward the retreads. Damn, this is Brendon's third chance in two seasons! Throw in Jessie and the rest over the last few years and it looks like TPTB are more intent than ever to turn this into a franchise of stock characters. Turning Jordan Lloyd into a millionaire helps this show's development? Maybe, no crystal ball here. If they're going to do that, and I invite y'all to flame away as I'm probably the only person who advocates this, but I wish Natalie Martinez would have been resurrected (did she do anything as dastardly as Porsche allegedly has done?). All the gasoline Shelly has been spreading would be a lot more fun with a match to light it.

ps: what did you think of Harry Potter? haven't seen it yet - should I go to 3D?

pss: you've mentioned Jordan has a lot more on the ball than she's given credit (I agree). Is there anything to be made of the fact that both of Jordan's seasons have seen the women run the men out the door (even though the women weren't aligned?) Meh, probably not; interesting, though.

sorry, I'm a week late responding.. but you realize those arrows are mostly arbitrary and all for fun, right? Looking at that afternoon as a mystery game would have been fun - I should have gone that route.. instead it was a nightmare of deleting false posts and fallout from them, and dodging all the WHO WON POV questions for a couple hours.. I figure he did talk about it at least some, but they left us soooo long before they came back, the hubbub had died down

I have however requested Fara give him a slap from me when he gets home for that one lol

I know - so was my post

Your drinking games are going to kill me, girl

ps: your even-tempered perseverance with some of the asinine twitter responses you get is amazing! I don't know how you do it. And thanks for the former HG twitter compilation list - it sure was fun last night.

Drinking games have been especially rough in here this year.

P.S. Your Twitter updates are very through, we know how much time that takes you. Thank you for watching Big Brother for us.
