I think that Dino will be our Dark horse if for whatever reason things don't work out between Ashley/JP and/or Ashley/Ben. Thou like most I'm convinced JP is F1. but a sleuther is never finished sleuthing till the end so all possibilities must be discussed even if we don't want to hear it. LOL

Remember how Em was edited. she kept wearing THAT ring, she sabotaged all her relationships and a billion guys couldn't handle her past, etc.....Many took Em's demeanor as a sign she wasn't interested in Brad and the edit continued to focus on her reluctance to fall for Brad, she had excuses, including 'could Brad handle being a dad'.

At the end of the day, we are only given edited versions of these folks, and we the viewer feel we know who these folks are based on that. We have to remember that they take great measures to portray someone in the fashion they see fit and pull all that material to tell that story and disregard the material that tells us otherwise.

Having said all that - I don't think we can say that Ben hasn't moved past his father's death. Of course he's still dealing with the grief but that doesn't make him someone who isn't ready for a real relationship. I betcha we hear he's hooked up with someone before the summer is over, just like Chris L who everyone thought was still damaged by his mother's passing.

You're right on all points. Furthermore, I have always said that their point is to try and fool the audience into thinking that F2 is F1 so that when F1 steps out for the majority of viewers it is a WHAT??? moment.

Furthermore, because of the edit and faulty inside info even the sluthers were fooled by the F1 Jesse win. There were very few Jesse folks on the Fort that season. Jason even told his buddies in the house he was F1 and then later told them that the producers told him to do it.

I bought into all of that, and so did the rest of us. We learned a heck of a lot that season!!
You can bet they will pull all kinds of punches. I don't put anything past them, including hurting the sweetest of the parents.

Now, I am going to bring something to the board's remembrance for whatever it is worth. Do you remember all of the Chantal vlogs? She was positively upbeat. It appeared from her demeanor and the kind of things that she said that she had won. We added the comments from her dad's interview and the way that they protrayed Emily and the ring business, and it looked liked it must be Chantal, especially for the first half of the season.

I don't put much of anything past the producers and the editing. I think they like to pull the wool out from under you, and I am really surprised when they just give it to you. I think that is very suspicious!

So Bloomers, what way are you swaying? I'm very skeptical of a JP as F1, and TPTB can and will make it difficult to discover/sleuth who is F1.

The only thing I'm glad that they may have changed is that they are allowing (according to Life & Style) the couple to see each other more.

Let's just say that I am watching this closely to see if the producers are going to do a switcheroo this season as they seemed to have done in the last few.

What was really odd to me during the HTD, was that we did not see Ashley bring a gift to JP's family nor did we see her bring a gift to Ames' family. However, we did see Ashley bring a gift to Constantine family and Ben's family. She brought wine for Constantine and flowers for Ben's. IMO, that means that Ashley F2 guys at that time was Ben and Constantine. So it looked like Ames was F4, JP as F3, Constantine as F2 and Ben F1. But, we also now know that Constantine will leave on his own terms during the Fantasy Date. So that would leave JP as F2 and Ben F1. I also noticed the F3 Toast SCs in the HTD Thread, and the position of the guys in both Jill and Ali's F3 Toasts. If compare the F3 standing position in Ashley's F3 Toast to Jill and Ali's, you'll find that Ben is standing where Roberto and Ed are standing (F1); Constantine is standing where Chris L and Kypton are standing (F2); and, JP is standing where Frank and Reid are standing (F3). Imo, Ben's the only one with a progressing storyline and therefore is F1. I'd really like for you to check it out. :D

I can’t discount this theory because I never would have thought Chantal would be original F3 last year, but that’s what the Austin brigade claims. So anything is possible. That said, Ashley herself said she’s really bad at faking it and thinks it’s obvious who she’s into. If JP was meant to be F3 then she doesn’t give herself enough credit, because she’s done one hell of a job faking her interest in him.
