Yeah, Hayden played a great game, definitely a deserving winner. The only thing that really had the potential to jeopardize his game was when Andrew outed him and Kristen, and that ended up hurting her a lot more than him because of her feud with Rachel.

"Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!" "Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!"
Hayden is the kind of player I don't cheer for, though. I cheer for the people who deal with the pressure head on and make big moves! People who really mess with people's minds. Hayden just sat back and thankfully, the cast of his season didn't realize it.
Hayden didn't sit back...he spearheaded the alliance that ran the game and won a ton of competitions (4 HoHs and a veto, plus all the Have/Have Nots and the reward challenge), and still managed to stay friends with everyone in the house. There were no big moves to be made because nobody else was a threat. The only person that was somewhat of a threat was Brendon, and Hayden's the one that got him out by beating him in the HoH competition. But I guess you guys probably hate him because he's a frat boy jock.
Hayden didn't play mind games, but he certainly made some big moves. He was the one who made the move to cut ties with Matt, for example, the move that ultimately won him the game because Matt respected him so much for making it that he voted for him.

Everybody here knew it was a mistake to vote out Brendon over Jeff.
I dropped her from 1st to 7th in the prediction topic once she put Brendon up (and that was only because I predicted her to win veto, I still have Kalia going out 8th).
Xuxon posted... Hayden played well enough, I just didn't like him at all. Same with Maggie.
This. It's funny. I found them very similar and very opposite. Hayden cruised along with his hilariously awesome alliance and in the end, took the reigns even though he was a personality associated with them but barely a presence of his own... While Maggie was a scheming, powerful player who was really good on her own, but made it to the end on the backs of some of the worst human beings imaginable (and by comparison to them, looked pretty awesome on her own)

From: Naomi_Diamond | #221 It's actually just Adam. Shelly/Porsche are willing to vote to keep Dani.
really? don't tease me like that.
that doesn't really make a ton of sense to me though...it seems like porsche and adam would be more inclined to vote together and that shelly wouldn't want to go against jeff (who clearly wants dani gone)
i thought jordan, rachel, and shelly were locks to vote to evict her, and that's enough
Nope. I thought the same thing the moment Dani was up on the block.
Shelly has been campaigning hard to Adam to get him to keep Dani. He doesn't want to, because he views her as a bigger threat than Kalia. Shelly has been pissed at Adam since the moment he's made up his mind. Funny thing is that J/J aren't aware that Shelly is doing this. They trust Shelly the most out of anyone.
Shelly outed that Jeff threw the VETO that sent Brendon home to Rachel.
Rachel was calm, then got up soon after and went into the house, grabbed Dani and asked to talk.
The first part of the "talk" was fighting about who was b****ier. Eventually the following things were covered. That Shelly took Rachel's stuffed animal puppy (this was a big deal at some point this week). That Shelly was a vote for Dani and has been trying to work Adam to keep her. That JJ would win this damn game if they didn't stay together. That Rachel will give her a vote to stay IF Dani can secure the 3rd vote without outing that Rachel would be the vote that keeps her.
They also recognized that if Shelly knew the third vote was Rachel's she would bail.
Rachel gave Dani until 5PM tomorrow to ensure the vote, so Rachel wouldn't be hung out there to dry, because she wants to pin the vote on Adam, and play secretly with Dani.
i might be biased because at least with 6 idiots you never know what's gonna happen, but if dani leaves tomorrow jeff needs to absolutely follow her out that door. with him not being able to play HoH, everybody but jordan needs to plan on putting him up (with jordan) and getting him out. none of the other 5 stand a chance in hell at beating him and jordan if they don't start now.
Adam won't do it if he wins. Shelly probably won't do it because she thinks she has a final three deal with them (even though she's guaranteed to get ZERO MONEY if she follows through with it). Rachel might if she recognizes that Jeff's her biggest threat to actually winning this game (or at least reaching the final two) and just says forget her alliance. Porsche and Kalia definitely would.
But then there's the Veto, and I'm sure BB realizes Jeff is in danger and they've made a Veto Competition suited to his abilities so he can get himself off the block.

"Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!"
One of the two challenges tonight will be questions. BB has been using historical quotes all week over the loud speaker, which will probably be trivia questions.
The other challenge is a carnival-ish game. There's a thin board in the shape of a snake. The players have to maneuver a ball around the curves and into a hole at the end of the snake. Probably a "person to do it the fastest wins". That'll be the veto, most likely.
I am really appreciating Shelley as a player now. Pretty much just after tonight's episode. At least she sees what she needs to do and does it. Big Brother should never be about friendships. The moment you do what it takes to build a friendship over what it takes to win, you have wasted your freaking summer.
Shelley was basically KoS until now. Now she just might win this thing.
Awesome. Now Rachel needs to win veto (while on the block, of course) and save herself, guaranteeing one of Adam/Jordan goes home. Then we're one step closer to an awesome final 4.

Captain Tracy Mombaro and Agent Mirasuke Inhara: Two of the toughest, hottest furrs you'll ever meet.
Damn, I was really hoping Rachel would save Dani. But it's nice that J/J won't win now.
Porche won HoH? Not too bad, hopefully she puts Jordan and Adam up and Adam gets the hell out of here. Terrible player. And yeah, I'm respecting Shelly too now, finally gets some balls.
Porsche isn't gonna put Adam up, they still have that secret F2 deal don't they?
Jordan and Rachel are going up for sure and one of them is going regardless of the veto. Rachel goes if they both stay up.

I literally stood up and applauded when Shelly finally figured out that J/J were gonna cut her throat in the Final 3. I understand that she was friends with them and wanted to go to the F3 with them, but you can't do that when you're the third wheel. If J/J weren't a couple, I would have had no problem with her blindly devoting herself to them.
That said, I don't think Shelly can win. She's lost both of J/J's votes, and I think her only shot at B/R's votes was against Daniele. Then take into account that she's probably going against Kalia or Porsche, both of whom get each other's vote and probably Daniele's as well, and she really has no chance. She'd get Adam's vote and lose 6-1.
I'm calling it right now, Porsche is gonna win this whole thing.
EDIT: That said, I could definitely see a situation where some houseguests decide that the mother needs the money more than the 23 year old cocktail waitress, but I don't think that will be enough.
Man, that episode was pretty awesome aside from Dani getting evicted and Rachel being Rachel toward Dani (I miss the days when people didn't use goodbye videos to trash talk). Dani absolutely tearing Adam a new one before getting evicted was awesome, and she was totally right. Adam has no will of his own.
And I'm glad the newbies FINALLY decided to start playing and do something. I was very impressed that Shelly had the guts to turn on Jeff/Jordan. Really raised my opinion of her. And heck yeah Porsche.
