I was rooting for Jessica at the end.

Eliminating the competitive threats (Dick/Daniele/Jen) would've only led Eric/Jessica into a F6 with Jameka/Dustin/Amber/Zach where the two of them were the obvious pair. Eric would've been sent packing ASAP, leaving Jessica forced to win a few key HOHs at the end of the game.Jessica was better liked by Jen and Zach than Dustin. Thus if Dick goes home F9, Erik can survive a vote against Dustin at D8. If Erik gets evicted later so what? Jess facing him F2 if like Amanda facing Todd. She's better off against Jameka or Jen. And Jen was begging to be Jeric's main ally after she lost Kail. |

Jessica had no worries about F2 competition. She would not have lost to Eric. I think she could've easily beat him by a 7-0 vote. She would've at least
pulled the whiny Donatos, Jameka, Amber & Dustin for a guaranteed 4-5 votes.

We do all know that Jameka was the REAL final 2 threat.

#22 - Monica Bailey, BB2 (Score: 97)
After its inaugural season of strategic mayhem, many credited Will Kirby with pioneering the ultimate way to win the show. After all, any game that lowers your chances of winning by being a competitor should therefore result in every future player using the same competition throwing tactics in order to appear absolutely meek & feeble. Oddly enough, very few people have continued on this course for long periods of time, mostly Dan & Eric Stein whom both look like distorted versions of the aforementioned doctor. In fact, Eric was initially set to appear on the second season while Dan's so obviously copying from the same textbook. Still, it's so confusing that nobody else has utilized the best set of methods to getting to the end which are to make as many friends as possible, appear physically & mentally unintimidating, and win the last few competitions in order to seal the deal. Either the hundred-or-so players to enter that house since are complete morons or they're just too competitive to give up in most of the HOH & veto challenges. The most likely reasoning why the obvious doesn't happen often is: A) The player feels that losing so many competitions will hinder their chances of winning when facing the jury. Plausible. and/or B) The player throwing challenges actually sucks enough at them that they are incapable of winning the last few (Eric Stein, anyone?) Moreover, let's not forget that likability is key in order to let people carry you to a point three yards from the finish line. Will Kirby certainly was anything but universally liked in that house. Lisa is a pretty good example of making the right friends and being a non-threat. Carried to the halfway point in the game, she managed to sneak under obvious potential game-winners Roddy/Marcellas and a stronger challenge threat in the very competitive Amy Crews. Still, Lisa wasn't throwing challenges and had far too many friends on the jury, meaning her F3 HOH win was absolutely essential which it should be for a player with a quality shot at winning. Anyway, my point here is that Monica Bailey is inadvertently the person responsible for the most successful type of game play. While she gets props for forming nice social bonds with her season's cast, she obviously wasn't throwing the challenges. On the All Stars feeds, Will even remarked that it was incredibly difficult to try and pretend he was absolutely awful at those mini-games when Bailey was often outshining him in the incompetent department. Not sure what else to say about Ms. "It's On!" aside from that she fits the mold of players like Jameka, Cowboy, Sharon etc. Only difference is that she actually could've won the game thanks to having superior social skills whereas the others all did or would've ended up shortchanged after the jury had their say. Also, major strategic props to Mo for milking the 9/11 death of a relative in order to boost her All Stars campaign despite the fact that the family member had died during BB2 rather than after. Classy, no. Cunning, yes. Coming Up: #1: - A TWIST OF SHEEP RAPING PROPORTIONS! IT'S AS DIRTY, SLIMY, DISGUSTING AND A WASTE OF TIME AS YOU'D EXPECT... ...IT'S... ....America's Writer! That's right. Now, YOU can volunteer to write upcoming installments. If four of you write one, we'll have a runoff vote, giving the public the opportunity to determine who gets to write the transcript for The Greatest Big Brother Player Of All Time!!!! #2: A shitty veto challenge clusterfuck that Chicken George could've won. Yes, it's RANDOM! You choose, America. Which of the following players should appear next on the list? A) The twenty-first best player B) The 21st best player C) The fifth worst player on our list D) A player that just missed the top 20 I'll be collecting votes from now until tonight at 12 AM EST (which is in 22 minutes). #3: The following will soon appear on our list: - The long awaited (or reviled) first appearance of the Donatos. Is it their only place on the list? - A contestant I barely remember. Ok, I really don't aside from their hair. - A Winner. And those could all be the same person but I always remember what a Dick looks like.

Oddly enough, very few people have continued on this course for long periods of time, mostly Dan & Eric Stein whom both look like distorted versions of the aforementioned doctor.Zach is an ever better example of a big strong guy throwing comps and hiding. Biggest problem with that strategy - if you are up against a solid alliance, it will only delay your pagonging. Sharon is a case in point. |

No takers for America's Writer which is what I was allowing some time for. I'll give you all #21/20 tomorrow and stick to a two-per-day schedule from
here on out.

Monica should have been on BB: AS. How the hell did she not get in?

America voted in six. Unfortunately, the voting system allowed people at the bottom to get in with virtually no support. For example, sites keeping track
managed to peg the top 4 males and top 4 females. Janelle managed to receive at least 85% of the vote, if not more. This means the other 9 girls received a
total of 15% and someone like Erika could've made it in with as low as 1% which is in line with the statistics we saw.
Once these 8 had been chosen: Kaysar/James/Howie/Jase/Janelle/Diane/Nakomis/Erika It left the show wanting the following: George (Season 1 Rep, older guy) Will (The epitome of All Star) Mike (Will required Mike being in the house or else he'd refuse to participate) Danielle (Key strategist after will, black girl) Marcellas (Housecalls host, famous snafu) Allison (Drama queen & biggest character of her season) In truth, Monica had no chance once Danielle decided to play at the last minute. Just not enough room. Now, had America only been given 6 players, instead of 8, the cast likely wouldn't have included James or Erika who were featured last in the opening credits. |

#21 - Karen O'Neil Ganci, BB5 (Score: 100.7)
Karen is a hot MILF best known in the house for playing with herself while watching Diane give Drew an under-the-covers handjob. Sorry, I've got nothing. Ok, I guess I can give it a go. She made good friends with Nakomis, Diane, Will & the Twin Beasts. In fact, I consider Karen to be the glue of that alliance and the de facto leader even if she wasn't overt about it. She had close ties with the females and her best buddy was Will. I'm sure Will would've bonded with the other girls, anyway, but you just have to take one look at Karen and realize she's got great leadership qualities. She just seems to subtly command authority. Her undoing game-wise had everything to do with having a good set of numbers turned against her mostly due to Diane handing the game to Drew on a silver platter. If Diane thinks with her head rather than her vag, she'd gun for Drew sooner, opening up Karen to a better set of odds. Basically, she parlayed her sweetness into a great majority alliance that unfortunately had a few close bonds in Nakomis-Cowboy & Diane-Drew (both to an extent). After debating the finer details, it's safe to say that Karen did exceptionally well given the hand she was dealt. |

Woohoo! Finally updated; however, lame "player" for the list.

Karen was not a great "player" in the sense of playing a good strategic game. But she was one of my favorite "characters" of the whole
series. I <333333333333 her.
"Thanks for backstabbing me!" |

Karen <3333333 Although I liked her more as a character than as a player. Did pretty good considering her 2 biggest allies came in 13th and 9th place
respectively. Could have done very well had they not made that F5 veto a perfect one for both Drew & Michael to throw to Diane. -_-
