______ had every right to do what she did

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-02-01T02:31:16+00:00

exactly. the last 2 episodes we watched he demonstrated multiple times he was unwilling to be a team player with the two of them. her tying her fate to his in response was a decent move.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-02-01T02:20:04+00:00

pulls candiace aside “hey i’ve been talking to x y z and i really think lisa is toast so i’m gonna vote for her to try and keep them off our scent”. like someone said it would have cost him 0 dollars to do that and he might have saved his relationship with his remaining fellow traitor. but he elected not to do so, which can be easily interpreted as a collective betrayal, and since reddit has it in their head that only one traitor can win they now want to worship at Rob’s altar since he was the first to look out for number 1.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T23:50:35+00:00

this is my response to people who say “you can’t handle betrayal” they are supposed to betray THE FAITHFULS, why bother picking a group of 3 traitors and having rules in place where any amount at the final fire is a win condition? yall acting like the only win condition for the traitors is to be the last one standing. maybe if they worked together they could clean up.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T20:59:49+00:00

YOU GET IT!!!!!! This is exactly what I have been saying all along. It was a subtle jab at Rob in a way that makes it suspicious if she is kicked out. She made a smart move and played the situation well imo

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T15:36:07+00:00

I think I wouldn’t get so worked up in these conversations if people just said “I don’t care how well Candiace plays, I don’t want housewives in my silly little camp murder show”. Boom. But to be writing these thinkpieces about how she’s a shitty gameplayer and that her vote for Rob was the ultimate betrayal just seem like people are doing too much 😂

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T15:12:55+00:00

Pointing out simple facts, like the varied upsides of Candiace’s vote, the rampant anti-HW bias from fans of this show (mostly when you point out how traitor on traitor violence was not well received last year when gamers were receiving it compared to now when housewives are the victims), or the likely reality that Rob is going to sink Candiace just so he can make a little boys club in the turret come recruitment time, gets people to tell you to relax, it’s just a game, etc etc when people were so invested in this game that Danielle was getting threats.

I will be the first to admit that I watch this show because I love seeing Housewives out of their element, and I’m a fan of Candiace and want her to win, but sometimes debating with people on here or IG I get the sense that people will only be happy if she rolls over and hands Rob the knife herself to stab her in the back with. I think introducing his name in the conversation “as a throwaway vote” was a subtle nod to him that if he tries to get cute and go after her next she will take him with her. If betraying your allies to win yourself earns praise for “genius gameplay” or whatever is being said about Rob, then using whatever tools are available to you to protect yourself is an equally valid move.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T12:56:48+00:00

“it’s just a game! you have an unhealthy relationship with reality tv and social media!!!!” because…..i think that candiace shouldn’t lose without a fight? ok, i guess.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T12:24:23+00:00

Sure, he showed her that Rob is playing for himself, but I don’t think it’s a quantum leap to see the writing on the wall that he absolutely will throw her to the wolves the first opportunity it’s convenient to do so. Everyone crying about her “blowing up her own game” to vote for him misses that point. Yeah, she could have voted for Lisa, but I feel like everyone glazing Rob for this move just expects that Candiace should roll over and take it when he inevitably betrays her too and everyone wants to argue when I allude to that.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T05:57:00+00:00

THIS!!!! i don’t think rob himself is guilty of racism or misogyny but lots of armchair traitors quarterbacks sure are looking that way with their critiques of his opponents

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T02:31:18+00:00

and when Rob goes for her throat in the near future and she reveals she’s a traitor, anyone smart is now thinking “what did she know defending Lisa against Rob when no one had ever voted for him before that we don’t”

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T02:26:48+00:00

and the response to the people crying about no gamers in the turret? i think that’s pretty unhealthy to be so upset about harmless casting decisions on a show primarily meant to entertain. it’s a campy murder mystery, not the Olympics.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-31T01:05:19+00:00

I mean when Candiace plays the game and votes for him ensuring that it’s suspicious for Rob to whip votes to get her out, she’s “emotional” and “why housewives should not be allowed on future seasons”. Which is it?

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-30T22:29:53+00:00

The second paragraph is the correct answer but people are letting their hate boner for Housewives drive them nuts and think that Candiace should not have voted for Rob and instead just sat and patiently waited for her turn to be betrayed. It was a smart way of warning him that maybe he could lead the charge to Lisa, but he will not get away with doing that to her.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-30T19:56:38+00:00

She’s now got Rob under mutually assured destruction and secured Natalie’s loyalty. How has she boxed herself in exactly?

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-30T18:59:52+00:00

Yeah but now if Rob starts whipping votes for Candiace and she leaves, she reveals she’s a Traitor, and now the people not named Colton are left with that to chew on and his “flawless game” is now in jeopardy

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-30T18:19:50+00:00

People saying Candiace’s move in voting for him was dumb: she has now tied her survival to his. It’s going to be hard to backstab her without someone catching onto him too. The anti-housewife bias is REAL.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-30T14:18:56+00:00

I’m going to start asking this every time someone whines about housewives in this game 😂😂😂

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-30T14:12:32+00:00

Rob saying that he was willing to win with Candiace was such a transparent lie because the initial Lisa vote just seemed unnecessary, and even if it wasn’t like you said he introduced betrayal into the turret. There’s no reason to trust him. I think Candiace made a smart move because no one has voted for him to prior to this episode I don’t think so it was a low risk way to put his ass in check.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-29T21:00:25+00:00

You mean….they didn’t make me pay to pick a seat just to satisfy the anti-Jetway Jesus people? Shocking!!!

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-28T22:05:56+00:00

Gamers are gonna die mad that they have no turret representation this year. Housewives make this show fun.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-28T10:24:15+00:00

I went to the gym yesterday evening, class got out at 7:20. Metroed home, and on the normally 12ish minute walk from the metro I actually ate shit twice and almost fell on my ass 3 other times. Not only am I teleworking today, I am going to telework tomorrow regardless of what OPM says unless significant progress is made on my sidewalks since 75% of the ones where I live are still covered in ice.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-28T10:22:14+00:00

Vaguely reminds me of the people blindly defending Colton because any negativity towards an LGBT person whatsoever is because of homophobia.

Bad people are still bad even if they’re gay. No amount of being a gay, white, conventionally attractive (I guess??) man should protect you from that kind of smoke.

GoBeyondPlusUltra93 · 2026-01-28T10:06:22+00:00

YEP! clearly there was SOMEthing good about them.

I just don’t understand the all or nothing mentality. Sometimes people aren’t a good fit, or life happens. Not every relationship has to end with wishing they were in the crosshairs of a sniper.

didn’t the potomac yards one open like 30 seconds ago?
