Entry #1
So coming into this game, I knew which people I wanted to work closely with. I immediately saw Sonic as a good ally as well as JakeTheIrrelevant27. Anyways, I liked the HOH comp, but Sonic and I didnt do too well. Caz won which I was ok with because I like Caz, we worked well in LT's before. I message him and he tells me 'if i nominate you, just know you arent the target'. I instantly had to talk him out of it because I was nervous Sonic could stay over me, so I pushed him away from the idea a little bit. However I knew if the veto was used myself and Sonic were being nominated so I was hoping Sonic would win veto, but Caz won and ultimately backdoored us (with Sonic as the target). I wasn't really nervous, I told people I was so they wouldnt evict me for being too confident, however the vote came in 5-3 and I was SHOOK. I was then sure it was me, but Sonic was evicted. Sad to see him go but I'm happy it wasnt me. I wont hold it against Caz but I wont forget. I think the 3 votes against me were: Jacob (for sure), Kourtney and Bonquiqui. I made an alliance with Stuart which I'm happy with too. I now have the golden key, but just because I am safe until final 10, it doesnt mean I can sit around and relax, I need to work behind the scenes, make deals and plan my next move in this game.
Vote: N/A this week.

So since I have had the golden key, I have had to make the right relationships with people. I feel like my ride or die right now is Jake. My other allies who are good allies but will be threatening in the future are Stuart and Caz. I spoke to Brandon before Kett's eviction and I think he trusts me after I saved him so I feel a mutual agreement there. I want to start working on Kourtney, Kourt can win comps so I need another shield, just like I do Caz.

So though I'm evidently not dominating physically, I am doing well socially. I have alliances with people such as Jake, Versalia, Brandon and Stuart. I voted to keep Caz last session, me and Caz may not speak a lot but I do like him and I think hes a great player, plus he is a big target so keeping him in would have been beneficial. Anywho, going into tonights session I definitely want hoh/pov to prove I'm not here to coast, I'm not awful at competitions, I came 2nd last POV so that gives me some hope to win a competition. I haven't won a comp, but I am happy with the way I am playing because I am a social player, we will just have to see how my mental game plays down when its time to make big decisions (if I win HOH/POV).

Well today I remain with 0 comp wins, totally over it. However, my social game improved. I joined the server and Kourtney claimed that we hadn't spoken much which is totally true, so we messaged on skype. We spoke about various things and we gathered we would be pretty good allies. So we formed an alliance named 'The Dog Hogs', and I'm very happy with this. I now have an alliance with everyone in the house aside from 2 people (Emi and Jacob). This is so that if I win HOH, I can nominate them both without my all sides gameplay being exposed. Stuart won HOH (the hoh was amazing tbh), I was happy because I trust him a lot more than I expected to, hes a great competitor so I'm more than happy to work alongside him. He told me I was safe which was good. Flopped POV sadly, but I didn't fear for a moment I was going to be backdoored but luckily it was just my paranoia kicking in. As a result, I had to choose between two alliances for the vote, I could either vote with Vers and evict Felisha or I could vote with Kourt and evict Emi. I decided to evict Emi, as I have spoken to Vers longer thus I believe it would have been easier to explain my reasoning to not voting with her, and she took it very well. So my social gameplay still stands pretty strong, now I just need those comp wins to solidify myself as a competitor in this game.

Ok so Jake wins HOH, I'm good with that I know hes keeping me safe. So he nominated Eminem and Brandon and I definitely want Eminem out, he's a wildcard and I don't want him at that DE due to me having no connection to him. So I won POV, I know if I had used it I would have lost an ally in Jake, Stuart, Vers and Kourt because Jake wanted noms to stay the same and the other three were scared they were going to be renommed. So I knew I had to keep noms the same and get Emi out. Then, Kourt asked me who I was evicting, thus I began a mini convention to get Eminem out of here. Thankfully it worked, and hes gone, and he proved how much of a wildcard he is after his random accusations he made after he was evicted. Then going into the DE, I would have liked HOH but didn't get it - Stuart won which is good, I felt safe PLUS he is an expanding target. He nominates Brandon and Jacob, its all good. He wins POV and this is where I worry. Vers tells me Stuart messaged her asking her if she is friends with me, and I'm thinking - is he grabbing on to my social connections? I started to think that maybe he realised I was playing all sides in the house. Thankfully, he put Jake up. It really saddened me to do it, but I decided it was in my best interest to take Jake out because he was a competition threat that wouldn't have given me a chance in these competitions. I really want Jacob in that final 2 with me, but Stuart asked if we're going all the way but I really can't take him to final 2 or even final 3, hes the strongest player remaining and it'd be purely idiotic to take him anywhere near the finals. And here's for my rant. Just because a player isn't a competition beast, it does not mean they are a bad player. If you look at stats and see someone with 3 HOHs and the other person with 1 POV, it doesn't mean that the person with less wins is worst at all. You never truly know how someone has played until they tell you all when they are evicted or sitting in the finale chairs. I have connections with EVERYONE remaining minus Jacob, who doesn't really know whats happening half of the time. People need to know I've proved before I can make moves and I'll happily do it again, Ive played an awesome social game, evidently I'm lacking physically but I'm still doing better then others. Anyways essay over, I'm definitely aiming for that HOH next week because its time for some blood.

Entry #6
Ok so Brandon won HOH, I kinda feel safe as he knows I saved him on Ketts eviction week and I asked for an alliance and he accepted. He nominated Vers and Kourt. I'm then pretty sure Stuart is the renom, Brandon wouldn't waste his HOH on sending Jacob home. Vers and Stuart are both my allies, but if I had to choose for one to stay - it would be Stuart. This is because Stuart is a MUCH bigger target then me, I highly doubt people would evict me over a threat like him, whereas Vers would have had a case and I could easily have been evicted over her. I assume Stuart thinks I'm just going to follow him to the end but why on earth would I take a player like Stuart to the final 2, he would win hands down. I won another veto (yay) so now Kourtney is after me because I evicted her so I know I finally have someone gunning for me lol. Any competition win for the next session is good for me, and I think it may be time to take out Stuart if I win HOH....
