Live stream chit chat

[Caramel]

it really is a joke, what’s the point of the livestream if we aren’t supposed to actually be keeping up with the housemates and checking in with how they’re doing.

They have to cut and mute, in my conspiracy theory, because they’re gonna pull some production BS and have basically kicked Abs out so none of the bigger players have to leave now that the votes are mostly in or else it’d have to be a double eviction at least. I really don’t believe they’re doing anything other than covering up how much manipulation they have to do rigging the show - but that’s just a theory

they should at least let us either have an enjoyable live and be consistent or as you said a title card with “be right back folks” and a countdown so it feels less like they blatantly dislike clue-ing us in

I dont care what the actual reason is, my own theory is that because they showed so much of the arguments and fallout with Hoggy and Colon, which we never normally see. Some executive higher up got pissed and cracked down on the stream showing certain moments. As since then, it has been so bad.

They surely arent just not doing it, right? Wonder why

Maybe because Pete came in for the morning shift which he doesn't usually do? They had the Abiola walkout in the process.

I'd have a guess that this Sunday would have been a double and that Holly is currently sitting on the second least votes... That's my guess anyway

yeah that was an older coke. It was when she was in the hotel challenge, she kept a coke and was drinking it in the staff room and BB told her off

for someone who goes to 5 star hotels and high end restaurants, she has licked bowls after finishing them and now drinking days old soft drink, classy

Thank you! That makes sense!!

Who is BB in the mornings? I swear the only times I havent heard Petes voice is all day Sat and then Sunday morning till lunch

Main Big Brother voice. Haven't heard him since they called the contestants to the diary room in the morning and the stream cut off for 2 hours.

 

[Caramel]

The main BB voice, Peter Cunningham

 

[Tuttle]

And so this conversation is being muted, why? Just giving us random sentences now.

Maybe coco took the coke as part of her task

Depends on the day. Nominations day he seems to be there all day. Eviction day he seems to come in halfway through the day.

Emily just got the stream muted bringing up Abiola AGAIN

 

[1qaz1qaz1qaz1qaz]

Emily has really nice hair.

The constant cutting in and out is driving me mental. They are cutting the most mundane convos & it totally ruins the effect of pleasant background noise

UPDATE For those just joining in :

YES Abs have left the house
NO we don't know why , how etc
NO we don't know if she was given/won/gifted any money or if in fact she is OK mentally or physically!
YES the muting will be happening everytime they mention the unmentionable flamingo topics

SO:
- learn to play music while watching the silent streaming
- expect the muting to continue all weekend until Sunday night's show

BB must think we are fucking stupid trying to hide this for much longer. If they are so worried, why don't they warn the HMs that there will be strikes given if they discuss the elephant in the room & let the fans have a decent live stream to watch?

In the face of this, I am out for the most part, I'm not watching the Muted House all weekend. By Sunday I may just not give a damn about watching anymore. Worst season ever.

 

[Affable]

Poor Vinnie looks so lost without Abs there. He looks disconnected from everyone

They've deleted a whole thread on the BB Australia official FB fans page about Abs disappearance

lovely summary, also if it wasn’t for vinnie i wouldn’t watch the show at all, idk how the stream is even watchable like this.

i had it in the background and got so excited thinking i heard talking just to see an ad for insurance and felt like snapping my crochet hook.

maybe we’re the social experiment with the way the producers are treating the audience

 

[Affable]

Same here. When he's evicted, I am done with this season.
