Week 10
Houseguests: Brian Hart, David Lane, Jase Wirey, Jen Johnson, Natalie Cunial, Nick Starcevic, Ronnie Talbott
The fourth juror member was just evicted and the house was getting smaller and smaller. Everyone wanted to make sure they were in the Final 2.
I can't believe I have made it this far! I'm psyched! At this point there are two groups. There are the "Three Blind Mice" (Ronnie, Jase, and Natalie) and what I am going to call "The Three Musketeers" (David, Brian and I). Jen sits right in the middle of both of those alliances. Because I have built such a rapport with her, I do not feel that I am in any danger for the next week or two. However, I worry about where her true loyalty lies, and I hope she's not just using me to get her and Natalie to the end.
For me, Jase has to go this week. If I can get Jase out of the house, I plan on targetting Natalie next. It only makes sense to target the person who seems to be the closest to my ally. If I can get Ronnie, Jen, David, Brian and I to the F5, I will feel pretty confident that I can get to the end without really having to do much work. I'll let everyone else rips each other's eyes out, and watch from afar as I slip right into the F2!
ALLIES: Brian, Jen, David
TARGETS: Jase
Ok, so we are down to the final 7. The place ranking I was evicted from my first game in 2006. Any time I make it past this week, I am happy... not as happy as winning, but I know I atleast made my mark somehow!
Last night I spoke with Natalie, stated my case as a guy that lost his closest ally and kinda shoved Nick and I's agreement to the side for the time being. When I told Natalie about nominating Nick & Brian it was to ensure that Jen either doesn't use veto if she wins, or to backdoor Jen if she doesn't. If this possibility happens (I'm hoping it does) Jen should be going home.
In the Head of Household competition called "Baby Mama Drama", houseguests had to decipher the parents of five children and one teenager. Natalie barely came up on top for her second HOH win of the season.
Ooops, I won. I tried real hard this competition. Just had to keep it out of most hands But now I have it and I don't want to waste it. I've been on a good path so far. Making few enemies, staying unnommed and maintaining some power. I had a good path to finals, but is that what I want?
Or shall project chaos reign just for the sake of opening up the game wide open once again? Is my goal to win or to make finals or is it to play spoiler? I have to reevaluate what my goal is and that will determine things...
Loves my alliance winning HoH :')
Natty has told me both myself and Ronnie are safe this week and she'll be nominating with a combination of the other 4. Ideally i would like her to put David up so we can evict him, he's strong in competitions and soon i might have to rely on competition wins, so he needs to go. But apart from that, loves making Final 6.
Darn it! Once again, I come close to winning a challenge, but not quite performing to the standards of the rest of the house.
Natalie winning is a double-edged sword. I'm pretty sure I'll be safe for the week, pending minimal usage of elusive powers. However, I feel that Brian may be on the chopping block yet again. I don't wanna be pushy, but I'm going to try to get Natalie to nominate Ronnie. I feel that he doesn't deserve to be here, and I think she feels the same way.
At the nomination ceremony, Natalie set her sights on the intruders.
Natalie (To house): I nominated Brian and Nick. You did not enter the house from the beginning when the tensions were high and some big personalities and big players fell to the wayside. You were lucky enough to avoid the bloodbath by game design. Some well deserving players fell before you even arrived. Nonetheless, you earned your spot into the house rightfully. You guys have stayed in the middle and managed to get this far by letting the big players target each other. Now you have to earn your stay by surviving this week. I feel that if I didn't do this, people would forget that you've been the most powerful pair since jury phase.
Well unfortunately I've had to do most of my legwork and things changed. But I basically had to go from nonentity in terms of overt strategy into making deals with several. Nick talked about the alliance that Jen and he made (Nick/Brian/Jen/me), I approached Jase for a F2, got David to go with "a plan" and have Jen as close as ever. Plus Ronnie, well I always have the fact that I voted to save him when no one else did. That's everyone.
Well I'd attack Jen just to prove to the jury that I can be the one that finally did her in (being the Brutus to her Julius or the Russell to her Danielle), but I need to ensure that one of Nick/Brian is gone first. Because if Jen were to go first, then Jase and David and even Ronnie could all jump to go with Nick/Brian. It remains a fact that whenever someone wants to get something done, they go to Nick/Brian. They need to be stopped first before they become the godfathers and everyone must ask favours of them.
Holy crap this week has sucked! Natalie wins HoH and nominates me and Nick. He is my only 100% ally in this game. Now we play for veto! If I win I'll pull myself off and if Jase wins he'll pull me off too. Those are my only 100% bets. This is ridiculous! Damn Natalie =/
So I was wrong about a lot of things this week. Natalie nominated me. I told her it's no hard feelings hoping that smooths over any want to vote me out, but, honestly, I'm pissed. I have been nothing but honest with Natalie and Jen and it seems that they are the two holding all the cards, when it's being made to seem like Brian and I are.
Jen is a two-timing backstabber. It seems like she will not be using the Silver veto on me after all. She is a liar. I don't know why I ever trusted her. If I stay this week, and she does not use the veto on me, I will be targeting her so quickly, her head will spin. I wanted so bad to trust her. I was clearly wrong.
I am hoping that maybe David will win veto. If he does, he saves himself and will hopefully save me again. A season 2 will go up on the block, and David and I will most likely vote for that person. If I can get Jen to recommit herself to me by voting off a Season 2, I will feel good going into the Final Six. That's if I don't get voted off....
In the veto competition called "Black Listed" houseguests had to try to be the last houseguest to take their name off of a list. In a close competition, Brian ended up winning the veto.
I WIN VETO!! This is crazy. I really don't want Nick to go home this week
but I think it is inevitable. I'll still try and keep him in the game though.
Even though everyone fro[m] season 2 are acting as if there are rifts in their season in terms of alliances and relationships, I feel they are all picking us off one by one on purpose. Even Brian is voting Nick this week.
I'm gonna have to win the veto next week. I don't want HOH for the sole reason that I need to read what others are doing with next weeks nominations. Each week I have been shown a plan to evict a season 2 player, but each week a non season 2 Alum gets evicted (role sephia back flash shots of Dan, Laura, Keesha... possibly Nick soon)
Brian made an easy decision to take himself off the block and many houseguests were hoping to see Jen as the replacement.
Natalie (To house): I am going to put Jase in Brian's place.
Sometimes I wonder if Jen has too much of an influence on me. Either way, she's slated to go soon. I just don't want to waste my time having to do it. Especially when I know she's pretty much 100% behind me.
So I'm trying to figure out who can I trust to take to the end. And I really hope this replacement nomination does not screw me over. If Nick doesn't go, then I'm forced to align with him in all fakery.
This endgame is gonna be tricky, so I'm gonna have to win all the competitions I can to ensure I get to finals - otherwise I have to assume I'll be a target sometime :S
Before the eviction Natalie was trying to figure everyone out.
Jen has a mind of her own and that's dangerous. She almost voted to keep Nick (and had the power to get David to switch his vote). I'm pretty sure I convinced Ronnie to vote Nick as well.
But because she almost tried to save Nick, I was tempted to put her up as third nominee. Just to spite her and get her out and prove that I was the one to do it. But I think I can still get her out at F3 or F4 by my hands alone. She's an unyielding ally right now to me and with Ronnie being the only one I can currently trust as much as she, then I have to keep her in until the biggest threats are gone. Nick is a threat. He's the most charming fool ever. I know, I was charmed by him before.
This is probably (aside from S1) the trickiest endgame out there. To be honest, this makes for a more exciting game. Anyone can make finals now. There's no clear cut finalist like last two seasons (seemed clear that both Jen and David were powering their way to top)
At the eviction Natalie's plan worked and Nick was sent home by a vote of 3-1.
