Week 7
Houseguests: Brian Hart, Dan Gheesling, David Lane, Jase Wirey, Jen Johnson, Keesha Smith, Laura Crosby, Natalie Cunial, Nick Starcevic, Ronnie Talbott, Steven Daigle
After the evictions of Jordan and Kevin, the house was wondering what was gonna happen next and with last week's vetoes finally being given out, no one would be 100% safe except the HOH and POV winners.
*runs into diary room*
OH! MY! GOD! My plan worked! LOVESIT!
TTYN SEASON 1! But 7 votes for Jordan, wow, crazy times. The 4-4 for David/Kevin i was kinda expecting, hence me breaking the tie. But all in all, a good week for season 2! I still have my Co-HoH power for [this] week, so i'm all good...for now.
I think my plan will be to contact Natalie, Ronnie and Brian(I'll scratch his back he'll scratch mine). Take some karma from Keesha so she'll maybe blame Brian, and that'll cause some rupture in this possible season 3 with Brian alliance. I feel if Jenn sees a weak point in the season 3 group (maybe Nick and Keesha fighting over missing karma) then she'll target them over me first?
If not, hopefully Jen is being truthful and Season 2 is after season 1 first... seems season rivalries have ceased while I've been away.
Ughhh. Why are these undeserving players staying? Jordan and Kevin were both in my alliance and now they're gone. I really shouldn't have given up my HOH privledges, so it looks like Laura's competition to win is POV.
There is no one competing that I feel safe if they win HOH, David or Dan possibly, and maybe even Natalie. But everyone else is a question mark.
This has been a pretty disappointing week and game, simply because my massive alliance has fallen apart.
I'm psyched to be in the Top 11. Just to be considered an All Star, and make it into this house has been an honor, but to make it through this game without being nominated yet gives me some confidence that I could actually get far in this game.
Allies So Far: Brian, Dan, Keesha, Jen
Ideally, I think it would be great for Dan or David to win this week. Pretty much anyone but Nick for me. And ideally, not someone aligned with me. Time to cut some ties and force some shrewd decisions. Because this game is not survivor, it's not about holding the majority all the time. After last week's bloodbath, it's okay for one of my side to go. If you hold too much of the majority, people start itching about rebellion. When you're being attacked, you regroup together.
At the HOH competition called "Time After Time", houseguests had to hang onto a rope and hit a timer every 15 minutes. This was harder than expected for many houseguests and barely beating out Steven was David who claimed his first competition win of the season.
Words can't describe how happy I am right now! David won HoH, so that means I'm safe for a whole week! Wow! Justice will be served. I don't talk to him. But him winning HoH is the perfect time to suck up to him.
Other than that, he serves no meaning to me. lol.
At the beginning of the game, I aligned myself with Janelle, Jordan, Jen and David. However this alliance became even bigger as we got more and more power. The alliance was: Dan, Jen, Janelle, Jordan, Keesha, Kevin, me, Lisa, Matt and yeah that's about it.
Jen knew that 2 members of S2 would be on the block so she decided to use her Co-HOH Key.
So i will be HoH again this week, love being it now! So why did i use it when an a member of one of my alliances won it? Simple. Keesha was a bit excited David won so i'm guessing they formed an alliance and will target Season 2, 2 of us would go up, should pov be used it would be a Season 2 filled block this week with one of us going home. Um, that won't be happening while i'm still around. So i use my power, only 1 Season 2 may go up at the hand of David, Keesha sits next to them, hopefully no pov comes into play and Season 2 boot Jordan's lapdog right after her. Another Jen Johnson power play that hopefully works out. Oh also, if Keesha has a power, forcing her on the block this week will at least flush it out and we can boot Dan instead.
Laura, Natalie, and Nick started assessing their gameplay.
Sharon was the best move I made to get out of this house, that's so I could ensure my "deal" with Jen jeniune.
When Nick and Brian came in, I was like WTF? they don't deserve to be here. I'm friendly with everyone left, but Ronnie, Steven, and I've never really spoken with Brian and Nick simply because in my eyes, they aren't All Stars.
I continue onward with my "stupid loyal non-offensive natalie" game. I'm just itching to break out of my shell - but it's not time yet. Skating by is a valid strategy right now.
During this week is when I will learn whether David will be a good ally to me. I am concerned that he may not believe that I was one of the votes to keep him last week. If that's the case, he may throw me up on the block. This scenario is unacceptable. I am a fighter, so I don't plan on going home this week, but I am definitely interested to discover who my true allies are. Here's to hoping!
ALLIES SO FAR: Brian, David, Jen, Dan, Keesha
TARGETS: Steven, Jase, Laura
At the nomination ceremony Jen decided to use her Co-HOH key. She and David would nominate one houseguest each, if they needed to name a replacement, they would both need to agree or they both would go on the block instead.
David and Jen (To house): Jase and Keesha are nominated.
Although not exactly told who nominated who, the house knew David put Jase up and Jen nominated Keesha.
So, I am starting to plant some seeds of dissention in the group. I want people to target Season 2, but I don't want anybody knowing that I am pulling any strings. Jen seems to be the most powerful player currently, but has also made a few enemies already. I think she'll be the easiest to get rid of, but at the same time, somebody I want to keep in as long as possible. I have created a final pact with her, and I do intend on holding up my end, but I believe she has such a big target, I don't think she's going to last much longer.
At the veto competition called "Gotta Catch 'em All", where Big Brother Recycled veterans would help out by tossing colored balls to houseguests which were worth different point values. In the end, David won his second competition of the week.
Okay, let me start off by saying that I have no earthly clue why I won that HOH... or that veto... other than this...
It was either that or write papers for my Maymester history class. I've established a deal with Keesha. And I'm hoping that by saving her with veto, she's gonna save me with her prize. When Jen nominated her, I knew I couldn't let Keesha go this week, maybe it's screwing me over this week, but I feel I just need to make some sort of complicated power move this week that involves more than just my hands. This decision is mine, Jen's, Keesha's I can probably include Dan in it if I can get him on the block.
I have created a bond with David, Keesha, and Dan. All of them seem like great players, and active players, and I want to play with the best in the end. They will also be the easiest to turn against the Three-Twos (Jase, Ronnie, and Steven are a threesome from the second season). Unfortunately, Brian seems to be working with the Three-Twos (possibly making this horrible attempt at a nickname "Four-Twos"). I'm not looking forward to the work it's going to take to persuade him against them.
At the veto ceremony, David used his veto to save Keesha. Both Jen and David easily agreed on replacing Keesha with Dan.
I feel like I have no control in this game. Nobody cares about my thoughts and opinions and everybody is doing their own thing, and so I feel totally frustrated by my lack of OPPORTUNITY to PLAY the game. I feel like I'm just a pawn, and I'm hoping that this week changes that!
The amount of power Season 2 has in this game really disturbs me. It doesn't seem like anyone really wants to go after them. Evicting Matt is definitely something I regret now.
Without Keesha being able to vote and Dan going up against a Season 2 member, he was evicted by a vote of 5-1 and became the first member of the jury.
