Week 1 - I'm Bringin' Sexy Back

[Dominic Briones]

What up, housecalls/audience?

I am very excited to be entering this game. It's been a while since I played in a legit Big Brother game, and I'm eager to do my best and go as far as I can while fighting for the win. But first, I need to give a few warnings...

WARNING 1
I'm not here to make friends. I've been there, done that, and I already have enough ORG friends, so I don't need any more. If I make some along the way, so be it. But I'm here to win. I've never won a BB game before, and I think it's about time, don't you?


WARNING 2
Sometimes I can get really confident in my position in a game, and that leads to my downfall. And then other times, I can let myself fall to the wayside as a floater/UTR, which also ends up making me disposable. I am going to try my best not to let either of these things happen. I might get a little cocky, but confidence comes with skill, and I do know that I have at least a little of that tucked away somewhere.


WARNING 3
I'm going to do my best to document my entire game for the sake of having a good and entertaining Diary Room. If you get sick of me, just ignore me. But if I turn into an Xtina, please let me know (BBStarz3 reference for those of you who followed).


Finally, I am going to try my best not to reveal my identity to affect the game. I already know who Dick is (and omg this guy is insane), but I don't want to win based on past relationships. I think that, if anything, it will cheapen any potential win. That's not to say I won't eventually reveal who I am. Sometimes, you gotta fight fire with fire, and if I find that others are utilizing pre-game relationships to further themselves, I might have to do the same. But for now, I'm just trying to figure out how to approach Dick in the first place. If he plays an OTT game like I just witnessed in BB Starz 3, then I want to be careful around him. I do think he'd be a helpful ally, or at least someone to keep close yet at a distance. He's decent in comps, and any spotlight will be focused on him, to help me hide a little. But, he's also a ticking time bomb. Don't wanna be the one standing next to him when he... BOOM! You get the point.

But anyways, I'm looking forward to having fun, and hoping to avoid an early exit.

Deuces.

I love you already.

Week 1 - Plan of Attack

We all know that the first few evictions aren't too hard to get past as long as you aren't a total TOOL or completely UTR/INV. So, my plan for the week is just to get to know as many people as possible. Being social is actually one of my LEAST favorite things in ORGs. It's like you have to be so fake and force so many conversations, just to make sure your ass isn't on the line. I'm hoping that, with a cast of 13 (fairly small compared to the average game I've played in), I can meet at least a handful of decent conversationalists and normal people.

As much as I hate to fly UTR, that's my goal for this first week. Make a small presence for people to at least remember I'm here, but not target me. UTRP here I come.

Nobody is on AIM at the moment, so I'll report back once I start to get to know these people. Unfortunately for me, I work this evening, all day tomorrow, Friday morning, and then I'm going camping Friday night into Sunday morning. Not the best timing for the start of a game, but I am going to be damned if I get an early boot because of that.

*puts on fake smile and heads to look for others*

[James Rhine]

Jen's like Xtina.

Can't wait for you, Mr. Briones! The winner's circle might be calling your name

[Jennii J]

JAMES, I am NOTHING like that.
I actually play a good game

[James Rhine]

You should check out this memory wall Dom, see where Amy and Jen are and you tell us who played a better game

[Jennii J]

Who actually won a season

Anyway, this is Dom's DR, let him and his hot self get back to telling us everything<3

[James Rhine]

*Someone lives in the past...

Yes Dominic, continue =)

[Enzo Palumbo]

Lol You two are silly. Dominic, take a look at that link and tell me who won that season.

Anyways, good luck man! I love your DR already

[Dominic Briones]

Somebody get me a fucking asprin...

So the typical chit-chat begins.

Houseguest 1: Hi, how r u?
Houseguest 2: Good, u?
Houseguest 1: Good! Excited for the game?
Houseguest 2: Yeah. U?
Houseguest 2: What do you do?
Houseguest 1: Yeah, def. I am a student. You?

BLAH, FUCKING BLAH.

I don't care what you do. I don't care where you go to school. I don't care what your dog's name is. At least not yet I don't. Maybe if we become friends, after I beat you in this game, then we can chat about our lives. But for now, I'll pretend that I care, just so that you won't nominate me in week one.

I'm sorry, I probably sound really douchey, but it's true. I don't really care about these people yet, but in a game like this, you are forced to all the sudden be "best friends" with a dozen random strangers that you can't even keep straight. That's why I said that the social part of the beginning is my LEAST favorite part of the game.

Show me the players. Introduce me to the threats. And let's go from there. Kthnxbai.

And now that my bitch session is over, I'm going to say goodbye to these lovely people and head to bed. But first, a quick recap of who I've spoken to and my initial thoughts.


Dick
Yes, I know who this is. He's nuts. He's a ticking time bomb, as I've said. But right now, he's the only one who can really hold a conversation. So... yeah. Idk what to do about that, but I am still not telling him who I am. I feel like I could sway him to allign with me if I did, but it's just kinda cheap and I'm not desperate... yet.

Dustin
Apparently he sent Dick a pm asking for an alliance. I have talked to this guy 2nd most out of the entire cast. I am trying to get him to like me, but he's in 11th grade, which makes him about 8 years younger than me. Plus, he seems slutty. Guess I'll have to turn on the charm. Ew. I am like a pedofile. Either way, he seems active. Could be a potential threat to watch out for.

Cassi
We talked for like 5 minutes. And it ended. See conversation above. It was probably more interesting than ours.

Parker
Same as Cassi. He took like 10 minutes to respond. Ugh


Those are the only 4 I talked to. I hope you didn't cast a bunch of inactives, Julie! How will I take pride in beating a bunch of losers? Oh dear, there goes my ego again.

*pokes self in head to deflate my swelling ego*

Peace out, Bitches
- Dom

[Dominic Briones]

Oh. P.S. I think that the bedroom names or the monkey pictures (see/hear/speak no evil) will have something to do with a twist. My spidey senses are tingling.

[Dominic Briones]

Give me a D!
Give me an R!
Give me an A!
Give me an M!
Give me another A!

What's that spell?

Drama!

I can't hear you! What's that spell?

DRAMA!

So HoH 1 is up, and I sign into AIM after a long 14 hour day at work, only to realize that the drama has already begun. And in one corner, we have our very own Dick (no surprise there, seeing how he played as James in BBStarz3), and in the other corner, we have Braden!

*sits back and watches as they duke it out*

Apparently, an early foursome including Dick, Braden, and 2 others who I don't even remember, decided to toss their cash at Braden, who promised them all safety. But then Braden promised the same deal to a few others, and just like in any BB situation, news spread, and Braden became public enemy number 1. So, magically, Dick became the new poster child for HoH, and it seems that a group of people is throwing their cash at him now, fearing that Braden is making too many deals too fast. (This is all coming from James' point of view in an AIM convo that I had with him.)

*sits back and ponders*

1. I am NOT surprised that James has found himself in a position to win the first HoH. This guy is like a magnet when it comes to wanting power. I'm sure he is LOVING this right now, even if it wasn't his plan all along.

2. Braden DID come to me and offer me the same deal, so I am sure that it's probably true that he's making deals left and right.

3. Dick told me that Braden mentioned me as a possible nominee if he won (um, wtf douchebag) because we haven't talked (sorry that YOU were the last one to check-in, asshat).

4. I am not even certain that the person with the most cash will even win HoH. The wording was very vague, and it never specifically said that the person with the most cash would win. So, that leaves me scratching my head and wondering if the LEAST will win, or some other random twist that's not what everyone assumes.

5. I didn't ask a single person for any cash, a)because I didn't want to sound greedy/desperate/or any combination of similar traits, and b)because I think it will be a good idea to have someone try to get none in case my prediction is right. (Wouldn't that be nice to get HoH and not really do anything for it!)


*ponders the above as I make a decision*

In the end, I don't see why I shouldn't side with Dick. I KNOW he's a good talker and probably does have the votes to win. I do NOT want to be a target of his and be drawn into his power spotlight. He won't go far in this game if he plays like a power hungry bitch, so I might as well appease him now and let him take himself out if that's the way he's going to roll.

As for Braden, well, I left him thinking that I would ponder the decision. In the end, if he somehow wins, I might see myself on the block, but that's what PoV is for I guess. I can't worry about that now.

So I guess here's hoping Dick will win. If he does, he's so fixated on Braden right now, and I feel close enough with him to feel safe. I do think that he's playing a lot of people as well though, and I need to make sure I am not expendable to him, just in case he does amass a herd of followers and go on a power rampage.

On that topic, Jamkea was VERY quick to come to me and tell me almost identical stories as James, also stating rather bluntly that she was NOT giving her cash to Braden and that she was supporting Dick. And then five seconds after I told her that I'd ask around before making any decisions, she was like "so who are you giving your cash to?" Ummmm, whoah there Lassie. Back it up. Is that your breath, or did you just fart? I just told you I would think about it. Obviously I didn't want to seem too eager to jump on the Dick ship. You can't ever seem too eager to do something without people getting suspicious. However, her eagerness to see if 30 seconds was enough time for her to convince me to give my cash to Dick makes me think she's already a close follower of his. If that's the case, I need to make sure to play nice when talking to the two of them about each other. Clearly, she's already up his ass.



Well, that's all for now. This round has already been interesting and it's just getting started. I just hope I conversed enough to make sure I don't see the block, regardless of who wins HoH. And for now, the people I've yet to talk to include: Adria, Carol, Keith, and Scott. Not too bad, but even then, some of the people I did talk to, I didn't get a lot out of them. *sigh* Let's just vote someone out so that it's one less idiot that I have to pretend to like.

*smiles innocently*
Deuces,

"You'd want to give Chenbucks to the houseguests that you'd like to see win HOH. Be careful though, everything in the Recycled house happens for a reason. Be cautious with your decision."

The more I think about it, the more certain I am that the person with the most cash will not just be HoH and end of story...

Some possible twists...

1. Person with most cash gets to pick who is HoH.
2. Person with least cash is HoH. (but that could be many people)
3. Person who has most cash is HoH and their bedroom is safe.
4. Person who has most cash is HoH and can only nominate people who gave them cash. (cruel twist!)
5. Dominic wins HoH for being super sexy and can pick any 5 people to leave the house. (ideal twist!)

[Dominic Briones]

Having 0 Chenbucks is NOT sexy.

Oh well. I took a gamble, and it didn't pay off. On the good side of things, Dick wins, which means I am probably safe this first round. I kind of want him to give me that Silver PoV, but at the same time, that might make me a big target. Idk. All I know is that Dick has a LOT of power right now, and he needs to remember who his loyal ally is (me, for now).

I will just have to start winning Chenbucks surely but slowly in the future competitions. I am not too worried at the moment about having 0. I'm interested in seeing the Veto store though. How many different vetoes can there be!?

[Dominic Briones]

Holy FUCKING Vetoes.

Mind = Blown
