I figure that a lot of people in this game will probably watch this show, so let's talk about it here!
My take on this first episode is that 2/3 twists are good. I like the pair twist because it only lasts until final 10, but it's going to really factor how alliances work in the house. And as for the golden key twist, Rachel said it best, "it's not about who you're trying to get rid of, it's who you're trying to keep." Players that realize that will probably benefit most from this twist. As for bringing people back, I hate when the show does stuff like that. Any show, for that matter, unless of course it's an all-star season. So.. we'll see how this goes.

Remember, everyone: We have spoiler tags here, so if you're posting a critical plot detail from the live feeds that hasn't aired yet or details from an episode the night it airs [since I can say we have at least one person in a time zone where it airs later], PLEASE USE the [/spoiler] TAGS or your post will be deleted![/b] Multiple infractions will result in a penalty vote in THIS game, as some of us want to enjoy the game without being spoiled. Like I say in the description: I don't like jerks.[/size] Our background color is 6EA368, so another appropriate way of hiding spoilers is to use tags with that. It's preferred if you use the tag unless you want to do person won Veto or something. But if you contextualize their winning Veto, use the spoiler tags so we can't infer it ourselves. Remember: NOT EVERYONE CAN WATCH THE SHOW LIVE!
I didn't really enjoy last night's episode. I'm not very fond of the pairs twist, although it could have been better had there NOT been three pairs of returnees. What's worse is that Roachel and Evel Dick are back and I already want to rip both of their heads off. There's also the thing about them all being pre-game alliances, perhaps excluding Daniele. This sort of makes it unfair to the pairs of newbies, who 1) don't know their partner at all and 2) have little experience playing the game. The returnees have a huge advantage with experience and an alliance they will be loyal to, even with the pairs twist being over at the final ten. Once the twist is over, I see the newbies struggling, and since one of them is going home first because Roachel won HOH and made a deal with Dick and Daniele that she can't go back on...
I still have no clue how the Veto is going to work. It doesn't seem to make sense in regards to the pair twist and that you nominate pairs for eviction... does the veto take just one person off the block and then pit two pairs against each other?
Big Brother needs a vanilla season without any sort of twists. Just HOH, food, and POV, with perhaps a small temporary twist like a dual HOH or double eviction episode, which does not significantly impact the game. I think BB10 was something along those lines, so perhaps I should watch that instead of BB13. Survivor does need something like that too [HIIs don't count as a twist anymore, they just need to be hidden better], with a cast of 16. Something like Tocantins with a less strategically inept cast and no Exile Island, and having a tribe swap only if necessary.
Okay, what the hell is this about? APPARENT MAJOR LIVE FEED SPOILER INSIDE
Evel Dick is gone already...? Did he quit? Get expelled? I have to see this... Grodner's favorite not lasting even two days in the house...?
This just makes me

Totally want Rachel Goddess to stay for the long run!
I do not think Veto will be used, a lot of conversations between Brendon and Rachel about Porsche playing both sides! (Is that how you spell her name?

Ew, Roachel makes me gag. That hyena laugh... that obnoxious voice.
Although I DID lol when she said "Nobody comes between me and my banana!"
