Big Brother **NO Spoilers, please** - Page 2 - PassPorter - A Community of Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, and General Travel Forums
As of January 1, 2019, we have closed our forums. This is a decision we did not come to lightly, but it is necessary. The software our forums run on is just too out-of-date and it poses a significant security risk. The server software itself must be updated, and it cannot be without removing the forums.
So it is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our long-running forums. They came online in 2000 and brought together so many wonderful Disney fans. We had friendships form, careers launch, couples marry, children born ... all because of this amazing community.
Thank you to each of you who were a part of this community. You made it possible.
And a very special thank you to our Guides (moderators), past and present, who kept our forums a happy place to be. You are the glue that held everything together, and we are forever grateful to you. Thank you aliceinwdw, Caldercup, MrsM, WillCAD, Fortissimo, GingerJ, HiddenMickey, CRCrazy, Eeyoresmom, disneyknut, disneydani, Cam22, chezp, WDWfan, Luvsun, KMB733, rescuesk, OhToodles!, Colexis Mom, lfredsbo, HiddenMickey, DrDolphin, DopeyGirl, duck addict, Disneybine, PixieMichele, Sandra Bostwick, Eeyore Tattoo, DyanKJ130, Suzy Q'Disney, LilMarcieMouse, AllisonG, Belle*, Chrissi, Brant, DawnDenise, Crystalloubear, Disneymom9092, FanOfMickey, Goofy4Goofy, GoofyMom, Home4us123, iamgrumpy, ilovedisney247, Jennifer2003, Jenny Pooh, KrisLuvsDisney, Ladyt, Laughaholic88, LauraBelle Hime, Lilianna, LizardCop, Loobyoxlip, lukeandbrooksmom, marisag, michnash, MickeyMAC, OffKilter_Lynn, PamelaK, Poor_Eeyore, ripkensnana, RobDVC, SHEANA1226, Shell of the South, snoozin, Statelady01, Tara O'Hara, tigger22, Tink and Co., Tinkerbelz, WDWJAMBA, wdwlovers, Wendyismyname, whoSEZ, WildforWD, and WvuGrrrl. You made the magic.
We want to personally thank Sara Varney, who coordinated our community for many years (among so many other things she did for us), and Cheryl Pendry, our Message Board Manager who helped train our Guides, and Ginger Jabour, who helped us with the PassPorter-specific forums and Live! Guides. Thank you for your time, energy, and enthusiasm. You made it all happen.
There are other changes as well.
Why? Well, the world has changed. And change with it, we must. The lyrics to "We Go On" for IllumiNations say it best:
We go on to the joy and through the tears
We go on to discover new frontiers
Moving on with the current of the years.
We go on
Moving forward now as one
Moving on with a spirit born to run
Ever on with each rising sun.
To a new day, we go on.
It's time to move on and move forward.
PassPorter is a small business, and for many years it supported our family. But the world changed, print books took a backseat to the Internet, and for a long time now it has been unable to make ends meet. We've had to find new ways to support our family, which means new careers and less and less time available to devote to our first baby, PassPorter.
But eventually, we must move on and move forward. It is the right thing to do.
So we are retiring this newsletter, as we simply cannot keep up with it. Many thanks to Mouse Fan Travel who supported it all these years, to All Ears and MousePlanet who helped us with news, to our many article contributors, and -- most importantly -- to Sara Varney who edited our newsletter so wonderfully for years and years.
And we are no longer charging for the Live Guides. If you have a subscription, it's yours to keep for the lifetime of the Live Guides at no additional cost. The Live Guides will stay online, barring server issues and technical problems, for all of 2019.
That said, PassPorter is not going away. Most of the resources will remain online for as long as we can support them, and after that we will find ways to make whatever we can available. PassPorter means a great deal to us, and to many of you, and we will do our best to keep it alive in whatever way we can. Our server costs are high, and they'll need to come out of our pockets, so in the future you can expect some changes so we can bring those costs down.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your amazing support over the years. Without you, there's no way us little guys could have made something like this happen and given the "big guys" a run for their money. PassPorter was consistently the #3 guidebook after the Unofficial and Official guides, which was really unheard of for such a small company to do. We ROCKED it thanks to you and your support and love!
If you miss us, you can still find some of us online. Sara started a new blog at DisneyParkPrincess.com -- I strongly urge you to visit and get on her mailing list. She IS the Disney park princess and knows Disney backward and forward. And I am blogging as well at JenniferMaker.com, which is a little craft blog I started a couple of years ago to make ends meet. You can see and hear me in my craft show at https://www.youtube.com/c/jennifermaker . Many PassPorter readers and fans are on Facebook, in groups they formed like the PassPorter Trip Reports and PassPorter Crafting Challenge (if you join, just let them know you read about it in the newsletter). And some of our most devoted community members started a forum of their own at Pixie Dust Lane and all are invited over.
So we encourage you to stay in touch with us and your fellow community members wherever works best for you!

Idk why, but I am having the hardest time keeping track of who is with who and how their strategies are going to work...or how they hope it will work.
I like Aaryn but not as much just bc she is so into that idiot David. At this point I am just praying that Jessie gets out. I think that the idea of getting David out is a good one for the Moving Co. but if it comes down to Candance or Jessie....I choose Jessie all the way. It seems I (and others on here) are not alone, as the house doesn't seem to like her very much either.
I do have to say....GinaMarie was very quiet tonight. She needs to stay that way.
Okay is it just me or does the extreme "acting" from the cast members ever bother anyone else? I mean from the CBS promos to the person that has to host the games aka: McCrae. I think it's a dead give away that these people are all aspiring actors because the average Joe wouldn't be so animated and comfortable in front of the camera so quickly. I know I've mentioned this before but I remember being so disappointed while watching the live feeds the year Howie and Janelle were on there, and hearing them all talking about all of the shows that they had gone on auditions for. They were all struggling actors. That takes away from it IMO.
Agreed! I don't like that there don't seem to be any regular or older people. Helen is the oldest and she isn't even that old at all.

Yeah, I think they over do a lot of their excitement. Production probably tells them to do that. I thought they over did it when they announced three people will be nominated each week.
Gina Marie was much quitter last night and a whole lot more tolerable. Ellise could get on my nerves. Not sure if its her or the fact that she's Rachel's sister.
I kind of feel bad for Elissa because nobody in the house is giving her a chance because she's Rachels's sister. Of course she's not gonna come the first day and announce who's she related to. It would instantly put a target on her back. I don't find her annoying at all ( as of yet ), but I really hope production doesn't make her into a Rachel clone. You know making her say Rachel's favorite phrase "nobody gets between me and my _________".
Raychel's sister seems really nice to me at this point; and does not seem to be Raychel's clone.... but she hasn't been angered or annoyed just yet; so I'm wondering if a different personality may come out down the line- a more Raychel like personality....
If I had been HOH, I would have put her up though.... It would have been an easy target that everyone would have went along with...
Generally- I like for HOH to be used to get out "players", but for the first week- it's too early to know who needs to go just yet and I think it's best to just play it safe and go with what the house wants.... JMHO.
I would be happy with any of the nomineez going home. Jessie is annoying and I really am tired of looking at David and Elissa's nasty hair. If I had to pick one though I'd go with Elissa. I can't stand Rachel, and her sister going home first would just be funny.

I hope Elissa goes but if David get voted out it could make the house interesting. Aaryn will be on the warpath for her man.
I won't give anything away, but there has been a lot written about this cast the last few days about how they are acting and what they are saying. If you want to read some of the stuff that I doubt CBS is going to show, google Big Brother 15 racist and read some of the articles. You might get a different opinion of some of your favorites.

What was Raychel's sister thinking talking about her sister being a super model and getting her votes?!?! Super wierd... And then lying and saying she never said that?!?! Even more wierd.... And then I guess she regretted it; so she said it was just a joke... I just don't get her thought process.... She's digging herself a hole...
I can't believe America voted her MVP!?!?! Really!?!?! Who would vote for her!?!?
I really thought pizza boy should have NOT changed the nominations.... All it did was tick one more person off unnecessarily... However, I do think he should have put her up in the first place; but once it was done, it should've been done...
And I think it's funny that pizza boy tried to spell out a "small" word so that he could throw the comp and then he actually won...
I'm an episode behind; so now I'm off to watch the newest episode that aired last night...
Boy, that Jeremy is a bully! I do NOT like bullies! So, I guess I want him out with out the rest of the "moving company" falling apart...
I don't like Aaryn anymore either; I think she's mean and is to blame for much of the bullying...
I don't know what to think about the relationship between the real estate agent and the pizza boy. He seems really intimidated by her; it almost seems like a cougar type relationship...
I thought David seemed like a nice guy; ditzy but nice.... However, his "girlfriend" is horrid, so maybe his evection will take her down a notch...
Gina Marie- went from obnoxious loud to seriously keeping low...
Raychel's sister is screwing up when she "acts Raychel"- during live eviction saying " nobody gets between me and big brother" or something like that...
She needs to distance herself from that persona....
And I hope it comes out that Jeremy didn't vote with his alliance; I hope it comes out and that they kick him out of their alliance...

I definitely do not like Jeremy, but I found Aaryn even more despicable during the whole wine incident (which was such a dumb thing anyway). Aaryn instigated him going in there to yell at the others and followef around silently while Jeremy said he was the only one who drank it, knowing full well that her whining was why they openedd the wine in the first place! Ugh I can't stand her.
I agree that the pizza boy hook up is just weird. I felt so awkward when they were kissing.
I think Elissa is just really that dumb. She is a terrible game player, and not much of a threat so the rest of the house is just letting her hang around.
