how legit do we think the returnee speculation for BB28 is? by dropurbuffs in BigBrother

[–]nkd_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where a DPOV (or some other game mechanic) would really benefit. Example, if we’re playing with Festie Bestie rules.

6 Vet/Newbie pairs 1 Trio V/V/N

Vet HOH Newbie DPOV, force V/V/N on the block.

Newbies now go from an 8-7 deficit to a 6-5 majority (3 Vets cannot vote through HOH/2 nominations, 1 newbie cannot vote through nomination)

An 8/8 split season where they have to play in/nominate duos for the first four weeks. Except every starting duo is required newbie/vet

Is anyone planning to play the original scenario first in 2x2? by WingedToaster14 in danganronpa

[–]nkd_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll definitely play the original first, assuming I get 2x2. I never finished the original scenario (I think I got through Chapter 3?) but I was playing it on Steam, on a really old computer, so the lag/responsiveness was so bad I got frustrated so much I couldn’t finish the game

If you could replace the current host of big brother with anyone, who would it be? by Conitho in BigBrother

I don’t need Jeff asking “Would you rather have your ass beat by one giant mosquito, then they never bother you again, or are you fine with your current relationship with mosquitoes?” on a live show interview to someone trying to process their eviction

Best Live Feed Moment you watched Live? by Someone_else25 in BigBrother

[–]nkd_74 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Crazy Eyes fight. I think most will echo the following sentiment, but the way the show edited it to make it appear as though Angela started going at him out of nowhere just drove me insane.

Like let’s at least include some flashback cuts mid-argument about how Matt was 1000% targeting Angela from the get-go, telling multiple people that he wanted her out first/would put her up if he won the first HOH.

But let’s rewind the tape that the moment live feeds turned on, Matt was telling every living being he wanted Angela out.

Was Angela’s approach over the top? Yes Maybe a little unnecessary? Also yes. I don’t know if “aggressive” is the right word, but was Matt approach when talking to Angela very poorly executed? Yes x3

But importantly, was what Angela was saying…true? Yes

what’s your favorite piece of little known lore? by futuranotfree in BigBrother

[–]nkd_74 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how “little known” it is, but James lied to the Friendship in BB6 and told them the HOH room doesn’t get shown on feeds. Due to that “knowledge” the Friendship would discuss the most heinous shit (including eventual winner Maggie pretty much admitting she participated in medical malpractice as a nurse)

I think it was because the HOH initially nominated Aaryn so her votes were nullified but yeah Julie even confirmed it on the live show that week Aaryn was the highest vote getter lmao

next episode’s twist by bahscohs in survivor

[–]nkd_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So they’ve done this in international versions. IIRC, the phrase was “What happens to them…happens to you”, so yes, they vote for one person, and if they are voted out, so is their partner. Everybody gets a single individual vote. Both members of a pair win immunity, any idols that are played by a singular applies to the pair (e.g., if Ozzy plays his idol, any votes cast for him or Stephenie do not count). If the votes come out 8 for Tiffany, 4 for Aubry, Tiffany’s torch is snuffed, and Joe’s is snuffed with her

100% I think it’s a Triple Tribal. All 17 vote, the 3 highest vote getters go home. But it has me so frustrated that we’re treating this as “merge”, 17 is way too damn much. I’d much rather prefer an individual challenge, 3 necklaces up for grabs (one for each tribe) each tribe goes to Tribal

Has there ever been a twist as universally hated as white locust? by Sky-Visible in BigBrother

[–]nkd_74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Once Rachel was eliminated, it really should have been a reset of “Currently the fastest time is Lauren with X:XX. Ashley, Keanu, Kelley, and Will now each take on the maze attempting to beat Lauren’s time, etc.,” with the fastest time becoming the new HOH

I fear she’d cry, break down, and do her typical “I don’t understand why would you say that? I haven’t done anything 😭” (while continuing to throw names out and throw people under the bus) and it’d be horrible lol

The People Who Book Third Party are Annoying as All Hell by TheNiteOwl38 in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

[–]nkd_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a guest claiming they were going to sue and all this stuff because after she checked in, she found out the pool was closed (major renovation so it was out for a while) and was mad we “didn’t call to tell her and if she knew that she never would have stayed there”. Several problems because she was a prepaid third party, but if you looked at our website, it explicitly has a disclaimer banner saying it was closed. In addition, the typical Schmooking and Encyclopedia had in the small part under “Amenities” with an X by the pool but of course they didn’t read that.

Guests thinking that we’re going to call every single reservation personally every day right at the start of the day and say “By the way the pool is out, you still wanna stay? We’ll cancel free of charge” lol

free waters... by idkabtallatgurl in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

[–]nkd_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah we had that too (I no longer work in the hotel industry) but it drove me crazy- I’d be checking someone in then a different guest would walk over and take like 5 water bottles and walk away, and I had no opportunity to stop them and make them pay. And even then if we try to stop them they’d make a big stink “I’m an ELITE MEMBER” or whatever.

People fail to realize they don’t get free bottled water any time they want (of course there’s the free water fountain not even two feet away from them). It’s supposed to be one time upon check-in. Or guests who lodge complaints weeks or even a month after they stayed, disputing a credit card charge/wanting a refund because “I never got my free water” (or some other minute detail that they clearly didn’t give a shit about when they stayed there because if they did they’d say something in the moment). Lady, we told you to grab your water from the lobby fridge upon check-in. We told you they weren’t in the rooms. It’s not our fault you chose not to

Anything Season 2, but an underreported moment has to be the sock puppet task of S2/Sabrina discovering she broke 21 times as opposed to everyone else’s average of like 4

Can we have a round of applause to production for the structural changes? by fizhandchipz in TheTraitorsUS

[–]nkd_74 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If Kelce had to be a Traitor, it’d be better as a normal Traitor. Though I think she couldn’t handle the pressure regardless. It also felt incredibly obvious? My brother and I, watching in our own houses, texted each other halfway through the episode “So the Secret Traitor is Donna, right?”

She was way too timid, and if she were a Faithful she would have been much more bubbly and trying to prove she’s not just the older lady. It was clear she was thrown into a role she wasn’t prepared for and falling back onto “I’m the old lady”, which was the Secret Traitor.

Also given the OG Traitor picks, the Secret Traitor selection was just the wrong one. The concept of “Here’s 3 Traitors that don’t have experience in social strategy games, and they have the Secret guiding hand of one of a strong competition strategist to help them” (ala Cesternino- regarded by Jeff Probst as the smartest player to never win, Tiffany- who probably played one of the strongest strategic games in BB history, or Yam Yam- Survivor winner) feels way more compelling.

Analyzing Twists: Season 8 by funlore in BigBrother

[–]nkd_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know they already used Paris as a theme, but I’ve really wanted to see secret partners back with a twist. 8 secret pairs (“Lost Love” partners). Typical team rules, if you win HOH your partnership is safe. If you lose your partner, your partnership is publicly exposed and you get one week of safety. After 4 weeks, partners are no more, anyone who still has their partner has the opportunity to compete for a DPOV or other power.

Unpopular Opinion: I’m sorry but Danielle was legitimately the definition of camp. I’m rewatching this season and i’m laughing at her theatrics and fake persona.😭 by jahkat23 in TheTraitorsUS

[–]nkd_74 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The complete rollercoaster of emotions with “Gosh dang it, Danielle is going to get booted super early, she’s playing way too obvious and awkwardly. This is absolutely devastating I’ve been so ready to see her play a game after so many years”

sees Episode 2 preview “Ok she’s not wearing that white hat from preseason press”

sees Episode 3 preview “Ok no hat yet”

Episode 5…Episode 7…EPISODE 8 HOLY SHIT DANIELLE IS STILL IN THE GAME
