Tim telling Ramsey that two of the trio need to go up...

"If you're going to do it, do it hard"

Tim pitching to Ramsey that Jared/Kels should be nominated.

Tim wants Kels gone so bad because he will get Jared back to himself.

Tim's totally convinced Ramsey to put two of the trio on the block.

He said if you're gonna make a statement, you have to put two on the block. Anything else won't be a statement - you need to show you're not fearful.
Then he said if a pawn is sat besides Kelsey, then she's going to demand Raul and Jared protect her, whereas if two of them are sat together on the block, they will throw Kelsey under the bus and will eat each other.

Tim is so good at telling the others what move to do then when he was hoh he got everyone to nominate and ended up with Dallas leaving .
Ramsey will likely to want the brothers up maybe he'll listen to Tim and try for Kelsey / Raul I can't see Jared going on the block at all.

Phil, Tim and Ramsey was in the bedroom.

Nikki walks in and says there's a new threesome in town - Maddy, Kels and Jared (because they've all been in the HoH for awhile). Fancy saying that in front of Ramsey!

She really doesn't care.

Tim , Nikki and Cassandra new trio forming I can see Joel joining them too.
Everyone wants Jared to himself without Kelsey Tim and Nikki talking about how much fun he had without Kelsey there enjoying himself.

Maddy talking to Raul. Hinting Cass is the target now

Maddy tells Ramsey:

Kelsey vs. Nikki, Kelsey vs. Tim or Kelsey vs. Joel

Kelsey would have the votes to stay, but if she put up the brothers or Cass against any of Nikki/Tim/Joel, they won't have the votes to stay.

Now she's saying she wants to keep the trio as a target - if she doesn't put them up, the next HoH will.

This cast...

Maddy wants to use a pawn (Tim/Nikki) and the brothers.

If brothers win Veto, Cass is the backdoor option.

Nikki goes home if used as a pawn regardless of who the person sat next to her is.

It'll be funny to see Maddy's target stay, though.

"I think Nikki would be disappointed if I used her as a pawn. Like, do I use Joel?"

Joel and Bros are the current noms I think ATM.

LMAO what a hot mess this week is turning out to be.

You think Nikki will disappointed? Maddy you ought to have watched her series, you dont know the half of it.

Maddy not putting up 3W AND putting up any pawn.. is about as stupid as you can get. 3W will have a 3 vote advantage in deciding who goes. Maddy using Nikki specifically is even more stupid, as Nikki is one of the only people she'd stand a chance of beating in the final.

I'm starting think that Nikki might be the only ones who'd put 3W up now..as everyone else will be scared of losing their jury votes so will just wait for the next HoH to make the move.

Exactly, and you only need four votes for the majority this week.

Cass will easily convince Kelsey of why keeping her over Nikki is better for their game, and Cass will automatically have bros and Joel's vote against Nikki.

Likewise, the brothers will have Cass/Joel against Nikki. The trio will be harder to convince, but they will still hold the power to decide which way they wanna go.

She needs to put two threats up - whether it's Jared/Kels or Bros/Cass.

I think Joel/Nikki and potentially Tim will all go home if used as a pawn right now.

Who knows what Maddy will do. It was a stupid move to backdoor Loveita when you could of cut the heart out of the trio by evicting Jared. Yeah that would mean Jared and Kelsey in the secret room but only one returns probably Jared.

Now she thinks to make a clever move to impress the jury to use a pawn this late in the game which will just piss off whoever she puts up. Everyone knows they need to break the trio so just do it!

What's with these idiots using pawns in the game more time then not the pawn goes home!

No Maddy couldn't even beat Nikki in the final 2!

Why is it that when anyone becomes hoh their brain flat lines?

This week should be a no brainer for Maddy, you put up Jared V Kelsey and if you need a replacement - Raul is your man! Your guaranteed one of the 3 headed monster is out, and not only that but only one will be able to vote.... what is so difficult to understand about that?!!!!!

To target anyone else just makes them even stronger, the less of the rest left then the harder it will be to break the trio and so it would be utterly insane not to do as above (in any order - doesnt matter who is the replacement) - unless she doesnt actually want to win herself and would rather one of them did?

If she puts anyone else up, i really will despair....... targeting the likes of Cass or the Bro's or anyone else come to it, would be suicidal - how the hell does she expect to beat the trio by picking off the rest??????

Because she is an idiot and possibly the worst BB player of all time. Who would go against your whole alliance and backdoor Loveita. Yeah she is still there but there is the trio which will take out whoever they want with no competition.

It is sad really because Maddy thinks only about making big moves so that she will be remembered amongst the BB alumini for the great player she thinks she is. But will come out to the sad fact that they all regard her as the worst player in BBCAN history!

Everyone is up and having breakfast, Maddy asks Nikki about musicians she knows and Nikki tells her about her associations with them, Maddy recognises one of the groups and talks further about what she knows. So the day is starting off good for Nikki not being nominated.

Also Nikki has said earlier that the notices for the day only mentions nominations and not havenots. That was in the bathroom earlier and others have said that they could still have it and Nikki said it is not on todays notice board. So maybe the havenots comps have finished.

I think Nikki is safe against Cass or Bros. 3rd wheel know they are on thin ice so will most likely want out the comp threats. They'd rather take their chances against Nikki.

I'm pretty sure Nikki would go if up against Cass..not sure about the Bro's.
These are not smart housemates.

Maddy will be making her (Tim's) nominations sometime today.
I think he really got through to her hopefully.
