Jackie sucks. James is fine. Meg sucks. Steve sucks.

Pretty much agree with everything you speak of.

This is the best season since probably BB11, IMO.

Love a divided house and messy gameplay.

Me too. James (put the biggest threats on the block), Johnny Mac (my favorite), Vanessa are really entertaining.

I like Vanessa but she is a paranoid LUNATIC.

Shelli needs to go. She's easily my least favorite and they have to realize she's a far bigger threat than Clay, who sucks and isn't a good game player.

Side note, I will DIE if Meg and Clay start a showmance after Shelli leaves

Vanessa knows how to play the game, but she's really irritating people. If she or her alliance doesn't win HOH, she's 99.99% getting evicted. It wouldn't bother me to see her go next but Austin is even MORE ANNOYING and should be the next one to go unless Clay gets evicted tonight.

If you look around Twitter: https://twitter.com/BBFeedster,

I guess we'll see how much in the alliance Shelli is.

Nah. Trainbeck is basically with James, Jackie, Meg at this point in the game, with Johnny Mac as her stealth ride or die.

She wants Vanessa's blood.

Steve won POV, so Becky is backdooring Vanessa tomorrow (who seems to have no idea it's coming). Cue the fireworks!

From what I've gathered, she's been nervous that she's being backdoored all week

Yeah, but as of last night, she thinks Becky is putting up Johnny Mac as the replacement.

Rankings! Based on a mix of my personal like and their gameplay, not necessarily in that order. (This is the first time where I felt confident to do a list.)

11. Steve - I'm not into his non-entity shtick. He sure is a true superfan because only a true superfan would realize the best way to make to the end is do nothing, piss no one off and lay below the radar. But that gets you to the $50K end. If that's good for him, great. But it won't win him the game against anyone.

10. Meg - Another non-entity, who barely came into prominence when she romanced Clay last week. I'm not even into the "Woo I'm just a silly girl!" act. She's in the right group for now, but when things turn sour, and they will, she'll turncoat again.

9. Austin - I would honestly rank him higher if not for the god-awful showmance. He should be ashamed for continuing to spout the whole "I just want to make it to jury to be with Liz" BS. Like everyone else, I bought that it was BS at first, but he looks serious about it. But his Hail Mary save a few weeks back was pretty good.

8. Liz - Lower ranking because of the show/nomance but I liked the twin thing this year, whereas it felt awkward and shoehorned-in back in Season 5. If they ditched Austin soon, I'd like to see how far she could go with Julia, since no one seems to be making the correlation that they are a team, which I would assume is their own doing.

7. Becky - One strong week does not a good game player make. I would have ranked her below Meg last week, but she did make a pretty big move this week while preserving her friendship with Shelli, which is all kinds of smart. It's a smart "floater" move.

6. Julia - Higher than Liz if only because she's not affiliated with Austin. Not a lot to say here, but I like them both. It's an impossible mission to get them to final two, but it would be interesting if they tried, and no one seems to have them on their radar just yet.

5. Jackie - Her rise in popularity is less about her gameplay and more about the general dislike of the opposition. I must say she's turned into an unlikely underdog after annoying me on Amazing Race, and I give major props to her for not playing both sides of the house like I had assumed she would. She wants to get dirty but has yet to win an HOH so I'll reserve further judgment until that time.

4. Vanessa - Honestly, this is more to do with her own gameplay (which has fallen apart this week) and her ability to make the game interesting, which I fear will take a hit this week if she goes. She's not the most likable, but she's not trying to be. She's been there to win all along, even if it's not the money she needs. I want to really like her, but the rampant paranoia is a bit much at time.

3. Shelli - I really don't get all the hate, except maybe the Clelli crap. She has been an instrumental game player so far, winning two HOHs and coming dangerously close to two more (if the TV edit was true, she was at least in the running if Becky somehow lost the comp). If all goes well, she will have been at least an accomplice to the eviction of her two closest allies (she may not have campaigned against Clay, but she didn't tell him to stop telling people to vote him out either), which may end up being the greatest move for her game, if she can somehow plant seeds of doubt in the others and claim to be a non-entity in the house. Personally I would love to see her form some sort of alliance with James to go after the twins and Austin before each other.

2. James - It's crazy what a week can do. Two weeks ago, James may have ended up in my bottom five, but now he's number two. Just insanely ballsy gameplaying last week, that I think he will walk away from largely unscathed, despite going way far back on his word to Shelli. I didn't think he had it in him but I'm glad he did.

1. John - Up until Sunday's show, this was all because of how likable and real he is. But now we're starting to see shades of his gameplay and if he plays it right and doesn't overplay like so many before him, he could make it to final four at least. I hope he does, to at least show that all those times that his frenemies asked him to go up or stay on the block, it didn't matter because he still made it farther than them.

Honestly, besides Non-Entity Steve, I at least like everyone else in some fashion, especially 8 and up.

Vanessa is a trainwreck.

I cannot wait to watch her lose what's left of her mind when she's put on the block today.

I don't think she's a bad person or anything like that, but my god she's a mess.

Also, Jackie is so god damn self absorbed. She thinks she's way better than she is. And while she's been able to figure stuff out, she hasn't really done anything.

And, Meg is the worst. Which we've always known.

For a poker player, she must be happy there's not much talking in poker. Because she's so up and down. Crying about Clay lying?!? Like, who cares if he did? He's about to leave the house.

Saving Austin was probably the worst thing that could've happened to her. But oh well, it has made for great TV.

That's the downside to seeing Vanessa go. Some good TV is going to go with her.

I'm going to need a Meg/Shelli fight soon.

I like Jackie quite a bit. She's feisty.

John is easily the best one still remaining and the one I'm rooting for.

Yes. If John doesn't win the whole thing, he'll definitely win the fan favorite.

I'd like Johnny Mac more if he wasn't floating by so aimlessly. I guess we'll see what happens in the next few weeks.

LOL now James/Jackie/Meg have flipped to wanting to get Shelli out this week rather than Vanessa. This season is insane.
