LURKERS,
THE FIRST NIGHT IN ISOLATED WHEN YOU LEFT, JAMES STALKED ALEXIS' TWITTER ACCOUNT TO SEE IF SHE HAD BEEN POSTING DURING THE MOVE IN. HE ALSO CHATTED WITH 2 GIRLS AND PUT HIS HEAD IN BETWEEN A COCKTAIL WAITRESSES BREASTS. ALSO WAS CHATTING WITH MULTIPLE CANADIANS.
MULTIPLE HOSTS IN THE HOUSE KNOW,
THEREFORE YOU SHOULD KNOW THE TRUTH
---------------
And now for the continuing saga of Steve and James:
The only way he turns that like into a love is if he RESPONDS TO MY MESSAGES.
----------------------------------------------
1. Another eviction canceled; how did this impact your game? Have you sensed the game beginning to ramp up as more people leave?
So the prior round would have been interesting. We had Chelsia, who I discussed a bit in my last video DR telling me she was going to nominate someone from Group A and Shahbaz. I basically told her that I was completely fine with that. And then she did not do that. Did Glyn convince her not to? I know she was asking Glyn for help with the DR secret code. Or maybe she just sensed it was easier to target people already gunning for her. Regardless, Chelsia can keep up the illusion that the house is not divided for another week because of the cancelled eviction. Would she have backdoored a Group A person? We will never know. Like I said in my video, I think I played that super well with Sezer because I made it seem like I got her to talk to him and put in a good word and it was successful.
Chelsia and Crazy James 5/4/21
Not pictured: Chelsia's sobbing husband, knowing she is no longer his.
As to whether the game is beginning to ramp up....maybe? Not really? We still seem to be in the same friend-making and alliance-making stages that we have been since basically day 1. I think if we actually had to sit with noms of legitimate competitors for a full day (like following veto there's a whole day to campaign, which we aren't going to get in episode 3), then you could have really seen people moving around to protect people they care about. But so far nobody has really had to decide whether to stick their neck out to save anyone and there's been no post veto campaigning (maybe shah vs. spiral but that seemed to be a landslide). So the gameplay remains in the opening stages, I would say.
2. Has there been talk of the Spy and what their secret missions might be? What advantages do you think the spy or previous spies might possess?
Some, I've been telling everyone I was the spy. I think that's still my best game move since once I told most of my group day 1, I am acting under the assumption it is out there or going to be out there so might as well seem honest. Tonight, Natalie told me she was the other spy, which I did not know before. (but makes sense given her huge pre-season post count.) My guess is maybe a handful of others know this (Lemonaid plus maybe a few more). But I think the majority of Group A does not. I will not be telling them.
It's sort of hard to speculate about the other spy missions or powers. My guess is Grace was a spy and had a power because she was in the minority and saved herself in an epic speech. But then she quit, lol RIP power. Following that I'm still guessing you guys are giving spy to someone who is more in need of it than someone in Group A, which I think is a more boring and cohesive unit than Group B. Powers are probably shit like steal a votes or extra votes. Or maybe telling someone the challenge ahead of time, that's a solid power. Probably no vetos or abduction powers yet but maybe for the harder spy missions down the road. Missions are probably like, form a chat and invite someone from the other group, idk. I hope they're more interesting than that. I'm not a host it isn't my job to give you guys ideas. Are you just fishing for ideas with this question? GTFO.
3. With bitter departures comes a new chapter in the game with our closest and most chaotic HoH competition to date. What are your feelings about the new HoH, King Sezer ? Would you have preferred it be Glyn? Do you have any idea what he might do?
What a great HOH comp. Shout out to the hosties. First off, the picking of partners was wonderful. Got to see who reached out to me, who teamed up. Who was first to team up (since time was an element). Just a bundle of information all at once and I'm going to have to review that board to jot down the timing of it all. Adam and Sezer (and maybe Dean-chard) reached out to me, if I recall, and I said I might want to hide our relationships and just wait for the random pairings. I told Glyn to pair up with a group B and throw it, which would have been a good move for him tbh, probably better tan winning with Sezer. But when it was just Natalie, Sezer, and Glyn, I was a little nervous, not wanting to be with Sezer or Glyn, so was happy that Nat messaged me. I asked her before the contest if she wanted to be HOH when we won. She said no, which stunned me. Maybe she didn't want me to throw it? Or maybe Group B really doesn't fear Group A HOH control as much as they should? But regardless, I did not really want to win either for her or me. But obviously would win to beat someone I had less connection with.
We were messaging each other in IMS which made refreshing the boards unnecessary and helps you go super fast. I assume that's what Glyn/Sezer and Adam/Susie did too. But I refreshed a few times to make sure we didn't win. At 14 I saw we were winning so slowed down a tad. Then around 30 I saw Sezer and Glyn had a comfortable lead so I finished strong to seem like I really was trying. But at that point it was the ideal scenario for me. Glyn was never taking HOH haha, he wants to play under the radar and rely on his social strength. Sezer has been wanting a bigger presence and is battling his own tendency to be shy so I could tell he was super happy to win this. He told me it brought a true smile to his face
He wasn't giving me a ton of indications for noms, which kind of surprised me. Maybe he doesn't know? I feel like he should trust me though, unless Glynn is in his ear more than I am (but even then I doubt Glynn is telling Sezer not to trust me when I'm the third member of Sezer's (likely) only small alliance). So I think he's honestly unsure of what to do. He seems super worried about the secret couple which I just do not get. They are going to be safe one week and then a huge target. He's also worried that the partner can blow up an alliance that their partner is in. but why would they do that to their partner? I don't think it really makes sense. And again, please blow up the Mega7 (Adam's alliance) that alliance is so dumb anyway.
4. Tomorrow is yet another eviction, this time with an actual vote taking place (knock on wood). Nervous about the vote? The events are beginning to become more intense and closer together, with a Veto competition, Ceremony, and Eviction taking place back to back tomorrow. Are you prepared for things to get messier?
I would be stunned, stunned if I was at all in danger this week. I mean kudos to Sezer if he got rid of me but doesn't seem wise. I guess the spy could have a renom power, but again seems too early for such a big power. Maybe adding a third nom, who knows. But I'm not worried about this round and I'm fine with the quick sequence of events.
-------------------
Other thoughts on people/alliances where my thoughts have changed at all since my last DR video:
Natalie: Says she's not in any alliances and is unemployed. At least one of those is a lie. Fished for info on Group A and I took my normal route of sort of throwing Adam under the bus subtly. If this ever comes back to me I can tell Adam I'm downplaying our connection and give him some 7 point crazy strategy why. he likes that big brain stuff.
Jen: Being very goofy and flirty now and social. Going to keep the connection going. Says she has met the real James and other BB/reality people. If she becomes anything more than a non-entity in the game I can tell her I know Steve.
Dean-Chard: Been getting along socially better. Bonded over movies/making fun of Parker's movie choices. Seems to like me but I think he also sees me as a social threat. As I talked about in my video, Glyn clearly told him about Mega7 before (or at least inklings of it) and then Sheila confirmed to him. I have since spoken to him downplaying it and sarcastically being like "no you found out Adam's alliance and how we were running the game." I'm sure he's a bit peeved but all his allies were in it so whatever.
Huasos: This round is a big test for the Huasos, how do we handle this week. Are we all making joint decisions? TBD.
The Me/Glyn/Dean-Chard Alliance: Sagittarius or something. Not a real alliance that does anything. More symbolic. I try to make it seem real but I feel like Glyn does a lot of his talking to Richard one on one and doesn't care about the alliance thread much. Glyn probably views it as a way to keep me from getting too pressed about him and Richard.
The Light Bulb: We were trying to solve the puzzle together so this is more legit. More active recently than Cardashians/the Villa which was supposed to be the core.
Which leads me to.....
Jennie: The Circle watch party that I devised had a few purposes. One was to make me seem non threatening and fun. Two was to see who showed up to build some rapport (bond with Aisleyne definitely grew). This is also all public so people are seeing Aisleyne bond with Group A, target on her back. It was just too tasty to pass up, the whole thing.
But another key was Jennie. My thought was originally to make a final two with Sheila to counter Glyn's growing power and sway over Rich and Amanda. But it began to seem to me like Sheila was closer to Glyn and Richard especially after the whole informing Richard of Mega7 thing. It became clear to me that of my relative core people (not including Sezer), the one most open to feeling left out and wanting a strong final 2 is Jennie. Even if Jennie has a final 2 already with amanda or Glyn, or even Richard, those three are simply closer to each other than Jennie. They have multiple alliances, in some cases, without Jennie. I first told Jennie about Steve Moses. Then we bonded a bit over star wars and her dog. And I told her about the watch party before anyone. Tonight I mentioned in a private chat that I wasn't so much joking about a final 2 with her (I had joked that the first person into the party would be my ride or die). I think the stage is set for me to go to her and say, I trust the Villa but I trust you the most. And I didn't think before we needed a final 2 officially because the Villa was enough. But now I think Glyn and Amanda are growing tighter and glyn has other options too like richard and that if they are all making moves like that, we need to too. And because of that I want to formalize a final 2 etc.
The reason to say all that and not just say "final 2?" is that I want her to trust me over Glyn and Amanda moving forward and for us to be a true duo. And if she's really engaged to Spiral, that only helps! Another number, bring it on!
That's enough for one night. Time to wash out the hair dye and go back to my day job:
Love,
Crazy James
