What do others think about those? Should they also be counted as spoilers or not?

If 1 week has gone by, it should be ok. The issue with timing is that usually most of the comps have already happened before the Sunday episode is shown. So they are playing catch-up and some things may not make it until the following Wednesday or Thursday.

I don't really care about pranks, bday party, etc but I would care about alliances.

I always hate this about BB every season,how hard it is to watch the TV show and follow the live feeds. By Friday, they already knew who won the veto. But on TV, they didn't even show who won HOH yet!

Sundays episode recaps all moments in the house from Thursday-Friday and some stuff from before

Wednesdays episode recaps all moments from Friday-Saturday(or Sunday)

Thursdays episode slightly recaps everything from Monday-Thursday

Just not the best scheduling. Should space out moments in the house according to the TV schedule. So you have enough days inbetween to really edit things and show enough of the important moments.

lol,it seems like we're having exact same conversations as the HGs! Just saw a scene with Frank/Corey talking about same topic. Saying Natalie is probably one of nicest/genuine girls in the house,probably more than most of their own alliance, but the whole alliance thing ruined everything for her. They seem to actually feel bad having to get her out in a few weeks,simply cause she was on the Bronte,Victor,Jozea side.

Then she would confide to the ladies that part of the reason she would let James cuddle her in bed was because she wanted him to stay away from Natalie in her room, so he doesn't become as attached to her when they talk about life. It's not necessarily a bad thing. It's not black and white with her attitude. She had ulterior strategic motives as well. Just playing the game. I don't think Nicole would generally be whiny in the real world. The stress of her watching her alliance do certain things gets her nerves sometimes and the paranoia makes her feel that way too. But her whiny is not offensive whatsoever. It's really passive.

I'm catching up on watching After Dark,and saw that entire "F5(minus 1)" meeting. Nicole is almost like a diff person in that one. Definitely different around the girls than she is vs the guys. If all that flirting and cuddling is all planned out strategy by her, then she might even challenge Parvati for being best guy manipulator in BB/Survivor history,cause she got every guy wrapped around her finger. But when talking to Vic, she basically said she finds all guys cute lol. She is 24, she's more likely just "boy crazy" than "master manipulator".

Overall,she just seems to go back and forth at times. Sometimes she's like "I don't want to get distracted by any guys". 3 minutes later,she's cuddling with at least 1. Though her BFF in the house is that green waterbottle. She literally walks around with it 24/7.

BB16 just probably messed with her bad. Seems like it eats her up inside at times about how that season went for her,and just bad mistakes made,and now in BB18,wanting to be "sassier" to counter that. And even post-BB life, being someone living in some 800 person town, from what I'm reading,she doesn't seem to like the attention you get from being on BB. Apparently she wants to shut down her twitter(cause of negative comments), some fans say she actually charges for "guest appearances", and supposedly she doesn't even use her twitter much and when she does,doesn't even bother replying to any fans(despite having over 100k followers).

The whole BB thing must be stressful for her. Like I said,coming from an 800 person town,must be overwhelming at the post-BB life,having 100k+ people following you all of a sudden. Surprised at all the negative comments she gets though,not even about her game,just people saying negative things about her. Twitter obviously a bad place for that,so I hope if she does stay on it,she just ignores/blocks those people. There's certain other sites out there which are ripping her big time, for her sake,hopefully she never visits those ones,cause any HG good or bad,will feel bad about themselves reading those types of site.

She seems nice, but not sure I could deal with all the insecurities. She had a chance to be a good player previously, but she couldn't ever make a move because of the insecurities. She had plenty of chances to make a move to win the game, but did nothing. So I don't see her or any of the other returnees as great players.

Like I said,BB16 post life prob got to her abit. Internet can be cruel, and for her who typically seems to be somebody well liked, those negative internet comments can sting. Frank and other HGs tease her at times about how her feet are so dirty/smelly from walking around the house all day barefoot(they don't actually smell,just some people teasing her for fun). But she got slightly upset at them and tells them to take it back so live feed people don't think her feet smell.

I think her BB16 game went bad simply cause of the showmance. A 22 year old female who knows BB well,can win comps,and is in a showmance..that's dangerous. By time she returned,that stupid detonators alliance had 100% control and she couldn't rebound.

Don't think there's lots of "insecurities", but still does suck to see someone like that not feel 100% great about themselves , when IMO,she shouldn't have any reason not to in the game,or twitter. Good hearted person in general,but just a lot of negative idiots out there trying to bring others down.

I know about that, After Dark is only thing I can watch on TV. It's just other moments in the house I can't watch cause of no feeds available here. Which is why I have to look on YouTube and stuff for clips people post of moments in the house. Feeds tell alot more about the season than the TV show does.

Though some people here don't care much about who the HGs are as people vs the game they play. I find feeds as something that does help you know HGs better and can judge them based on who they are compared to an often skewed TV edit which just depicts people based on how BB wants to portray them.

Lol, I need to watch after dark before replying here. All these convos in this thread are being talked about on live feeds,same time as we talk about it here.

Day is trying hard to make Nicole feel better about herself. Apparently she doesn't think of herself as someone that guys would really like or that she looks or acts like the person guys would like. And Days just constantly reassuring her that she looks great and has nice personality and is "corny",which is why people like her.

Doesn't seem to get through to her all the time. She just doesn't believe she can meet a good,nice guy and that the "real her" is more than enough to attract that type of guy.

What did Hayden do..I think he broke her.
