It's time to go Wild Bill

Missed tonight's show, can someone explain this fake evictee thing to me

There will be a double eviction next week and the housemates know this. The 2 that will go are the least saved and the most saved. But the most saved housemate is a fake eviction and will be led to a secret room.

Don't actually know if it's an actual double eviction though

 

[BACCS]

I'm calling her a princess because she cries when she doesn't get her way and uses emotional blackmail to control people. Mainly Drew. And yes, my Mum suffered from breast cancer for many years while I was growing up, so please get off your self-righteous high horse and let the Mods do the moderating for once.

Tully controlling people? I think you mistaking her for Tim. Self-righteous high horse? I'm not the one slagging off on someone I know from a TV show in a highly charged emotional environment. If people in here stopped slagging Tully as a human I wouldn't have to respond. It's like Tully is a self confessed serial killer, such is the hate for her.

Basically its a double eviction, the person with the least votes is evicted and the person with the most votes is fake evicted and shipped off to another location. What the fake evictee's role is we don't know.

 

[PAdman]

I bloody missed it again, anyone remember the percentages?

Judging from the comments in here it was:

8% Heidi
11% Tully

The rest please?

 

[TheFreshBanana]

And the only reason why people hated Heidi because people thought she was backstabbing and snarky, which is true, but also the same as I see Mikayla.

I may be biased, but Mikayla was a downright arseh*le the way she treated Tahan that episode. Tahan was just ensuring that Mikayla didn't do the beauty pageant if she didn't want to. Mikayla then thinks that Tahan actually rigged the thing so she would come first and use it to get her some save votes. Mikayla also hates Tahan because she's dumb. And Mikayla is a teacher for christ sake!

The fact is, Mikayla is jealous and threatened by Tahan. Instead of dealing with it like an adult, she's basically formed a unity with all the other girls to sling mud. Despite this, she still cries more than Tahan.

I spoke about this on the podcast last week. She put herself on the show so she is open to judgement, that much is true, but the names, hyperbole an vitriol being directed at her is staggering. Footypie32 i don't really put your comment in that bunch as i think it was a joking comment and we have all done that. Liking or disliking (or even hating her) whilst it might be a little irrational without actually knowing her is totally fine, thats what reality TV is about, but calling her really horrible names and wishing harm or even death upon her is ridiculous and needs to stop.

Keep in mind her ex-girlfriend even defended her last week when people were taking it too far, someone who has actually been wronged by her and has more right to "hate" her than anyone right now told people to pull their heads in, if that doesn't put it into context for us then nothing will.

I hate her.

She cheats on her GF on national television. She gets upset over little things. She has the nerve to be angry at other people for being upset. She assumes that people are backstabbing her when it's not happening. She couldn't even keep a secret for more than 1 minute.

I know I just wrote a pretty scathing comment on Mikayla, but jeez, even she makes Mikayla look good.

8% Heidi
11% Tully
16% Drew
16% Tahan
24% Tim
25% Ben

The 16% with Drew and Tahan, one of them may be off by 1%. And can't remember if Tim or Ben had the higher %.

I agree she doesn't like her and part of it probably is because she is threatened but Tahan was incredibly annoying with the beauty pageant thing, also the pageant was rigged (just not by Tahan).

Mikkayla talks about people behind their backs but so does everyone. It's a matter of opinion so it's a fruitless conversation. I didn't like Mikkayla at first but she has grown on me, the difference for me is Mikkayla is telling the truth when she talks about or to people, Heidi didn't and was trying to manipulate and coerce people.

I think everything said about Heidi is true of everyone in different degrees.

 

[TheFreshBanana]

Where do you base that Tahan was annoying with it? All I saw was, she got it, asked people to volunteer. When she got to Mikayla, Mikayla seemed very unenthusiastic about it (I saw that) so ensured that she wasn't doing something she didn't want to do.

And I wouldn't objectively say what Mikayla says is true

TBH I didn't mind Heidi. I thought she was a bit ****ed over by the editors, because I thought her interview with Sonia had a lot of character. She wasn't a boring personality, although I see Mikayla as quite boring.

 

[Wild Bill]

'Take out the trash', are you serious? Feel pretty good sitting behind a computer sprouting shit about someone you see on TV?

100% serious. What sort of trashy person sprouts her love for her girlfriend of 2 years and then carries on chasing salami in the house. Zero class.

The way that conversation should have gone

Tahan: Do you want to do it
Mikkayla: Im not super excited but sure ill do it
Tahan: Are you sure? You don't have to
Mikkayal: No its fine ill do it

End of Convo-

Tahan didn't need to ask 88 more times and specify that she "didn't have to do it, no one is making you" She said she was going to do it, leave it at that, Tahan came across as pushy and condescending, keep in mind i love Tahan and think she is the ****. Asking someone the same thing 55 times is irritating. If they didn't want to do it they wouldn't have done it, Mikkayla especially has made it clear she wont just say yes for the hell of it.

I think Heidi seemed arrogant and annoying in the interview, i'm all for some character and she was an interesting housemate but i think she tried to start doing what Tim was doing and it didn't ring true for her. Her passive aggressiveness toward others (especially Mikkayla) was painful as well. To each their own, i liked Heidi in the first week but the bad side of her started to come through too much.

 

[cynical]

lol @ people hating on the females

young females are very insecure about their looks so it's natural for them to bitch about Tahan.

As far as the Tully hating, seriously?

Can any of you imagine what it would be like for a teenage girl when her mum is suffering from early onset Alzheimer's? On top of that being confused about her sexuality?

People are treating her like she is some normal chick, she certainly isn't.

She is very damaged and damaged people struggle to act appropriately, it's like dealing with a drug addict (they aren't rational).

 

[Wild Bill]

Drew speaks to Jade and Tully melts down. Jealous controlling trash is closer to the mark.

 

[Shell]

Ding dong the fatso's gone.

 

[TheFreshBanana]

phantom13 You could also say that the convo would have ended had Mikayla not said "I'm not super excited", but whatever. Let's leave it at that.

 

[Shell]

Shit got real talking to Tully's friend too- see Mike's whole body language/demeanor change when he realised he was getting a really serious answer from her????

Bit awkward, but great viewing.

Cant wait for the fake eviction. Hehe, BB is evil.

Pretty sure she did.

 

[windyhill]

Tully, wtf ? I'm calling rigged voting.

 

[Silent Alarm]

Heidi was awful. A bogan who's association with that mouth-breather shit commercial radio should be grounds enough to hate her. Those morning cack-crew operators are nothing but inane, drivelling, false, unfunny, loud arseholes and she was one of them – no class, no humour, nothing interesting about her as a person or in her life and nothing fundamentally endearing about her. Her fawning over Ed was weird as well. A lot of self-confidence via dumbness, I think.

Mikayla is a moll. Patronising, condescending, controlling. Did they show that talent show tonight? On one of the online videos, Tim does a ventriloquist with Drew as the dummy and he was saying "everyone says Mikayla's a cat, she has nine lives... but her only friend's a dog!" Which was really cruel but apt considering how she is. Such a pain in the arse as well and so self-centred. She thrives on evicting and putting people up and puts on the waterworks before smiling and clapping in the diary room. The kind of girl you'd get frustrated and hateful towards because she was too arrogant to see past her awful, awful flaws. Prick of a thing.

Drew will be gorrrne soon after having the key to surviving really late. Hooking up with Tully has killed him.

Tully is an idiot but she's clearly farked up. She'd be like christmas for a shrink. Yearning for satisfaction and validation via faux-lesbianism (people will defend her, but I just think she is totally putting it on – Tahan is really good looking in any language, probably because she is about five languages, and she never hung on for cuddles or anything like that. But she always wanted attention from the blokes... and not Ben. Not Rohan. Not Xavier. But the 'good looking' sit-up-kings. And without being cruel, her ex-girlfriend wasn't a girly girl and had really masculine features. She's a weird case and crucifying her is a bit OTT.

Ben is a pain in the arse though and his mum has royally crippled him. Ed was talking to him about his hopes and plans for life. All Ben wanted was to go to Graceland and, absolutely oddly, go with his mum to see where JFK was assassinated. Nothing interpersonal or romantic. Poor dude has no chance because of his upbringing. Sheltered and very lonely and poorly skilled, no matter how 'quirky' he seems. Feel sorry for the guy because it's not his fault.

 

[Plugger35]

Great to see Heidi's fat arse booted out and the shock on her face when she found out she only got 8% of the votes, silly cow thought she was popular lol.

Hopefully Tully goes next so we don't have to put up with anymore of her ridiculous crying fits.

 

[j0rdy1]

The crying fit when Tully actually leaves will be on an whole another level. Facting that she is leaving, leaving Drew, finding out she has been dumped, probably getting a bad reception from the eviction crowd. We haven't seen crying until we see her evicted.

 

[RU486]

Glad that disgusting smug bitch is gone. That interview was one of the worst I've ever heard, her condescending smug personality came to full fruition tonight. Hilarious how she percieved herself as being one of the 'popular' ones, you could tell she was extremely mad about the whole situation - hopefully her ego has been destroyed.

What's best is the crowd did nothing to help her cause, when she was bitching about the housemates the audience gave no reaction, as, just like most of Australia everyone hated her.
