Perhaps poor word choice, but I still think their alliance is very strong. Let's face it Paulie has the most influence and support in the house (Zak, Corey, Nic, and to an increasing extent Paul). It's too risky for James to flip at this point, especially because Paulie hasn't done anything to warrant his disloyalty.

james needs to use being the low man to his advantage. if he can lay low and stay safe a couple of weeks as the low man on the pole, he also gains information that can be valuable to the other side. when he realizes that its almost his time, he has the best info to give to the other side in an exchange for safety and join up with them. (its risky bc you hope people honor the deals they make, but staying where you are isnt a good move either) then once you do that you do everything in your power to do the same exact thing. once the previous alliance you were the low man of gets broken up you come back with beneficial info to create a new deal.

is 100%, absolutely not, but thats how i would play the game, and then just gotta bust arse to win a comp or two late in the game.

Well I mean he's got nothing even close to that. He has no deal individually with Paulie that's really worth anything that I know of.

He has to flip eventually. He's definitely on the outskirts of the main power alliance right now. When you're on the outskirts, you need to flip when the numbers are right to put yourself on the inner part of the new power alliance. The question is would James feel like he's in the inner part of the new alliance. He'd be sitting there with Frank, Bridgette, Tiff, himself and Natalie. Frank is definitely the core of that potential group and its debatable whether that actually puts James in a better position. Frank and Tiff have to somehow make that group more comfortable to James than the existing group. I would point to the many cracks already existing in the current alliance and the bad decision they just made that screwed themselves. They can also use Natalie (who's comfortable with Bridgette) to try and pull him that way. Make her bitter about the other side sending Bronte home.
