Week 3 - Sittin' Pretty

[Adria Montgomery]

I love word games.

So this HoH competition is right up my alley! I feel really good about my performance, not sure I'll beat everyone, but I know I didn't come in last!

I can see maybe Cassi or Dick doing really well. I can't see myself being in any immediate danger no matter who wins this week (I thought about throwing, but I'm a competitor ), with the exception of maybe Parker. Just because we don't talk all that much.

I made sure I spoke (briefly) to Jameka after the challenge today just incase she is the one who wins. I didn't let the conversation go too long in case I have to end up nominating her.

All bow before the Queen.

So excited I won hoh! Got my letter from home, that was a cool thing to have in my room. Gave access to the FF so we can discuss strategy since we're never online at the same time. I'm sure Braden will have a few ideas of his own, but ultimately I'm going to do what I want to do. I will listen to what people have to say though.

Right off the bat...

Braden - safe
Dick - safe
Dominic - safe
Lori - safe
Cassi - safe

...everyone else is fair game.

I received pms from Jameka and Carol (surprise, surprise) after winning the competition. Two girls who are obviously concerned they could be nominated this week. But I'm going to have to really think about what I want to do.

As for the dual veto I'm supposed to assign, I'd like to keep that kind of power in the hands of the FF, so likely Dominic will get it, since people would not directly connect him to Dick or Braden. I'll post that decision later tonight.

Speaking of vetoes, I should now have enough money to afford a Level 2 veto from the Veto store! ;D

Lori Valenti 6:01 pm
just please don't give it to Braden or Dick

Parker Somerville 6:11 pm
xD Yeah I know. Well I've heard a few names pop up like Braden's and all that for noms and I was wondering what your thoughts were about trying to get a probably established pair in the house split up.


Braden Bacha 5:35 pm
i'd like to see Parker out this week

Lines in the Sand

Dominic told me Jameka wants to start an alliance. Him, her, me, Parker and Scott to take on Dick, Braden, Lori and Cassi, because she thinks they're a foursome.

That would be why Jameka was fine with Carol or Keith going up.

It's funny because these people trust me so much, and I now know where everyone in the house stands, and the battle lines are being drawn slowly.

The concerning part for me was that Dominic said he was fine with whatever...like he would consider joining that other alliance. Not a good sign. But I'm going to have to tell him that's not an option.

[Adria Montgomery]

I may have made a slight game mistake...

I told Keith I was nominating him, because I wanted him in the Veto competition, and for no other reason. Which is true, I know he has enough money to save himself. But he was asking questions about the real target and such, and I told him because I want him to trust me. But I think he may have been copying/pasting our conversation to Parker as it was happening, he was taking way too long to reply.

Oops. Now I have to go through with nominating them. At least if they are together, they're on the block together and the Four will know. Now hopefully Keith (or Parker) doesn't try to pull something like using the fishing veto to steal Dom's dual veto, use it to save both of them. If that happens, it's on and Jameka and Scott are going up.

And if it all goes to hell, I can use the excuse that I was testing Keith by telling him my "plan", while also using both Parker and Keith as pawns while setting my sights on my real target. I could just end up looking like a genius. Or an idiot. ha ha.

[Adria Montgomery]

Parker wants to make a deal.

Parker has enough to remove himself from the block. And he wants me to promise I won't re-nominate him in return for my safety next week. I'd take the deal if I knew I could fully trust the guy. So we'll have to see how that goes.

Dick has suggested I could put him up to cover our alliance, and he'll just remove himself. I don't want him to have to spend the 5 Chenbucks though. But again, we'll see how it goes.

Braden won the Golden Veto and told Dick that he'd save Keith. Seriously dude, leave him on the block and let him remove himself. Let him and Parker remove themselves so they spend their money! Sometimes I wonder about Braden...One more time, we'll have to see how it goes. lol

[Adria Montgomery]

Bring back the robot.

I feel like I'm letting emotions take over my decisions in this game. I need to snap out of it. I need to go into robot mode and do what needs to be done.

I have to keep recycling Parker and Keith and Carol and have one of Parker or Keith sent home.

I think we've come up with the perfect plan for this stupid veto meeting. Right now, Carol is on the block with Keith. I told Keith to wait for Carol to use a veto first, then I'd put up Parker. Then Keith saves himself, I put Carol back up. And by then, neither should have enough money to get down. Then hopefully we can get the votes for Parker to go...

[Adria Montgomery]

I was surprised by this:

From Lori:
---
Okay Don't tell Cassi!!! She is like parker number one fan!! so she will vote to keep him! so thats 1-1! you need 3 more! who are you going to ask?
---

Too bad I already asked her if she'd consider voting Parker out. lol Anyway, Cassi was honest with me, and said that she talks with Parker and Carol more than she does with people like Dom and Keith. So she wasn't sure what she'd do yet and didn't want to make a promise.

But I think if it's Parker vs. Carol, Cassi could vote Parker out, since she's close with both, especially if Lori, Dick, Braden, Dom, Keith, Scott? are. She'd want to go with majority I'd assume. If I'm feeling like Carol might go, maybe Dick can use an onyx veto or something and we can get Cassi or Jameka on the block, to cancel out one of the Parker votes.

[Adria Montgomery]

Now we wait...And hope that Parker walks out the door.

Parker and Carol are the final nominees, thankfully. I'm not sure if I was able to mend anything with Keith but I did let him know that he was never my target, and helped him try to figure out the best way to keep him safe once he was on the block.

Parker should be leaving...Braden, Dom, Dick, Lori, and Cassi should all be voting to evict him. That's enough right there, even if Jameka decides to use her poison veto. Speaking of Jameka, by keeping her safe all week, she's promised me that I'm safe if she wins hoh. And I know Carol won't hold a grudge either, since I kept her informed this week as well.

The only person I'd rather not see win hoh is Keith.

I'd love to see Dick win, so he'll target trouble-maker Jameka. She's been talking trash about him all week, first to me, then to Lori. And then hopefully Dom plays hi dual veto and becomes co-hoh for the following week, so we have a portion of the power just in case one of the Four doesn't win.

[Adria Montgomery]

Mission accomplished.
