I also would have given up all the vets, even Daniele, for 6 new players. Daniele was the only one who played a new game. 09/20/11 02:02 PM

Rachel was still "a huge target from Day 1 who had to fight every day to stay in the house". Brendon was still a possessive, clueless dork/douche with ZERO social game. Jeff was still an egotistical prick who thought everyone should be playing for him to win, who again shot himself in the foot by evicting the one person he thought he couldn't trust (Russell, Daniele) and just put a bigger target on himself in the process. Jordan was still a blank-staring baby doll who was perceived as nonthreatening and weak. Dick was still a dickish manipulator, for what little time he stuck around.
So yeah, only Daniele really departed from her previous season's formula. She had an all-female alliance! BB8 Daniele didn't know anyone's names besides her Dad and Nick, her social game was crap. But BB13 had people fighting in her name even after she was evicted. But awesome as Daniele was, I would have given up watching her redemption in order to meet six new players. Maybe Shelly and Adam would have played differently if Jeff and Jordan hadn't walked in like royalty and recruited them to be their furniture alliance. Would 6 strangers have steamrolled the early part of the game the way the Veteran's Alliance did? No. In all likelihood the Brigade 2.0, i.e., the Regulators, would have had a fighting chance, rather than all of them being booted before Jury. It sucks that the newbies went into the game thinking they had a shot at winning, they had no idea how heavily the deck was stacked against them. But them's the breaks in Big Brother, and it sucks, but that's how the game is played.
