Hey Houseguest! I do hope you’ve been enjoying your stay under the reign of Big Brother! It can be a lot to get used to, but now that we’re a week in, you should be all settled in.
1. So, after some removals and a quit, we had our first official vote tonight! Was Natalie leaving the outcome you wanted? Or would you have preferred something else to happen? How does this impact your own game moving forward?
2. The vote wasn’t the only thing that happened tonight…first there were nominations, a veto competition, some public chatter, and a fiery exit. Break it down for us from your perspective – What the hell happened?! Were you in the thick of it, an innocent spectator, or egging things on in the background?
3. We left things off tonight with a non-live HOH competition focused entirely around social perception. Do you think you can read Shahbaz’s mind better than everyone else? …Do you want to?
Congratulations on surviving a full week! Make sure you’re prepared to survive a few more if you want to snag a victory this season. Good luck, Houseguest.

When the hosts need to throw me off the trail:

I have a video DR but have a few additional points:
1. I've started giving more info to Shahbaz just to keep him off of me. Things I don't care if they get leaked or things I want to leak but not directly from me. Like that Natalie was the first spy for Group B or that I was spy or that Adam was coming for the spy night 1. This is all old info but seems a bit spicy. And Shah loves to throw around spice.
2. On the other side, I'm goosing up Adam to go at Shahbaz. I'm thinking if he or someone close to him gets HOH we can even make some completely random code name like "Operation Tummy Tuck" and arrange a back door. Adam will love that.
3. I made the move with Jennie to lock in a final 2. We still need to name it. But the concept is there. Glyn has too much info and too many connections, so when it gets down to it, he might not choose us. And we have to be ready. I explained it to Jennie and she is at least telling me she got the same vibe. And honestly even if she already has a final 2 with Glyn, it doesn't make much sense for her to reveal ours to Glyn. I just need her closer to me than Glyn when the time comes.

So I now have a final 2 with Adam called Baby Wipes. He proposed the alliance and originally wanted to call it Twin Towers and make 9/11 jokes.
Super cringe. Adam is a 9/11 denier (or at least thinks it was an inside job) and gave a presentation about it in school. I tried to be diplomatic like “yeah who knows what Bush knew, but lots of innocent people died so probably not the best alliance name lol.” But he was like “innocent is a judgment call.” So.....that’s a viewpoint. I tried to steer us towards a less touchy conspiracy for our team name and suggested “Fuck Magellan.” But he counter suggested toilet paper because we are flushing others down the toilet. I suggested Baby Wipes as a gentle alternative. He also loved my Operation Tummy Tuck name.
I super doubt it’s his first final 2 deal but I’m happy to lock it in with Adam. Maybe we can be the chaotic duo that I hoped I could have been with Dean-Chard, who is really more of a secondary ally at this point.
My primary loyalty still lies with Jennie who I do feel I can 90 percent trust. Then maybe Sezer next? I would lock in a final 2 with sezer but he seems to be anti sneaky and loves the huasos thing.
Amanda winning is a pretty good outcome. Won’t put me up. I’m guessing she ultimately goes after Susie or Jen or maybe even Pete? But I don’t think I’ll be going up. She always says good things about Spiral so doubt it’s him. Not sure why Spiral is such a golden untouchable boy all of a sudden. Need to keep an eye on that.

Adam told me he has a close connection with Amanda and she told him the Chelsia backdoor plan. Doubt it’s any closer than my relationship with her, and she did later tell me about Chelsia. For some reason they think I’m tight with Chelsia so I think she was worried to tell me. All Chelsia and I have done is flirt really. But Amanda did tell me eventually. She clearly made this decision in consultation with Glyn and maybe Jennie? Adam and I were both told so functionally our relationship with Amanda seems to be the same.
I suggested Susie as a pawn to Glyn who said he would share it with Amanda. Again, an indication that Glyn was the one “in the room where it happens.”
I really don’t want Chelsia to go. I am considering gunning for POV not using it and locking in something with Chelsia. That would blow the game up. But the issue is that I think Amanda and Glyn have the jump on me in terms of getting group B’s remnants on board to put me up over them. If Chelsia stays (obviously her winning POV is the best option), then I can let her know later she was the backdoor plan and not to trust Amanda and Glyn (or anyone honestly). Lock in the best challenge competitor as my ally. We will know much more after veto tonight. If anyone other than Chelsia, me or maybe shah or Jen wins, I think the veto gets played for sure.

If Chelsia ends up going, I’m going to use my public vote rationale post as a strategy to call Glyn or Amanda out. I need more people to start doubting them. But don’t want it to be obvious it was me or obvious to Jennie either.
Current draft:
We are all expendable to Glyn. You learned this lesson too late.

Upon second thought, it makes much more sense to blow up people in chat room names than in the votes, since votes are somewhat easy to seduce who said what. But I’ll say the same thing.
Also Amanda is clearly keeping information from me now about Shah’s power. Glyn and Adam both indicating it’s a big power and probably know more than I do. I’m assuming it’s abduction power, but not going to say that we will see what happens. This is probably enough for me to blow up the plan this week if I win veto.

I sort of didn't handle that well lol. I told Shah I knew his power, which I did guess. I felt like he was starting to tell me but maybe not. So I jumped the gun and said it first. Immediately he blew up at amanda lol, no time for me to even damage control. She clearly was pissed not at me but at whoever told me. I think she now knows I don't trust her because she was acting like she was going to tell me but chose not to. But at least shah doesn't trust Amanda and she is wary of him again, which is a decent outcome.

Me semi-intentionally blowing up the whole game and me with it because 11 days of nothing can make a man bored.

We saw nominations, a power of veto competition, and some words said after the veto ceremony. What happened tonight from your perspective? What are you thinking for the vote tomorrow?

So basically I took many steps today and yesterday, some good some misguided, that helped blow up the game. (Sprial contributed too though.) Why did I do it? Partly to make the game more fun and less Group A vs. all. But also I saw the path the game was going down and it ended in an Amanda or Glyn victory every time (or maybe Dean-Chard or Sheila victory as a coaster). And not with me winning. Glyn and Amanda were simply set up too well across group lines with people like Parker and Spiral. And on the side with people like Richard. She wasn't giving me info, and maybe she really just didn't have time to give it but I think that's BS. She somehow had time to tell Adam about Shahbaz' power but not me, yeah right. Cardashians are supposed to be her core alliance, not the people she tells last. My guess is I would reach top 8 or 9 and be basically cooked every time unless me Jennie and Sezer won out?
So what happened...
Earlier today I guessed that Shah had the abduction power which sent him to Amanda yelling and upset. My goal was ultimately to have him think amanda told me but I screwed up and did this too early before the noms which gave time for it to all be resolved prior to the ceremonies. If I hadn't heard from amanda before then, I could reasonably have been like yeah I told chelsia because you weren't telling me about shah's power. But since we already resolved that, I couldn't later use that as a rationale and had to deny talkign to chelsia. I sort of got out of that by telling the truth, but Glyn and Amanda's trust in me may have lessened. I did tell Amanda that Glyn did nothing wrong, since I know she loves him. But honestly Glyn and Adam shouldn't tell me "amanda knows the power and she told us but we can't tell you." LOL what am I supposed to think from that? It's super sketch. At least tell glyn that she's going to tell the rest of the cardashians so we aren't left hanging.
When Chelsia won it became clear from jennie/amanda that Shah was not being put up. Chelsia then found out about the attempted backdoor, I later learned she heard from Spiral. I heard that from Jennie because apparently chelsia and amanda confronted each other about it. Chelsia then didn't use the veto, amanda and her fought more. During that time, I told chelsia what I knew. Basically spilled the beans about Amanda and Glyn running shit and Glyn lying to everyone because (1) I felt like I was going to get blamed for Chelsia knowing the plan anyway, and (2) I could at least try to build something with chelsia and have her go against glyn and amanda if she wins. It turns out Chelsia doesn't really have allies right now, lol. So that kinda sucks for me haha. Maybe she can pull back in susie or pete. But she trusts spiral who is amanda's buddy and in the new cross A-B alliance that I am not in but has glyn richard jennie parker spiral and aisleyne. And she keeps almost trusting glyn even though i'm telling her the whole point of all of this is not to trust glyn. So she could blow up my thing with her at any time too haha.
So what is the result of tonight? Did my immediate position become worse? Yes, much worse. LOL. But I think if I can survive the next two evictions by lying low and letting Chelsia or Shah or Amanda or the couple take the fall, then I could be in a better position to ultimately win if things reset. For one, if Chelsia survives, I now have the strongest competitor on my side. Two, Amanda is much more exposed now. Three I think Glyn is more exposed and Jennie firmly does not trust him and Richard. She still seems to trust Amanda though haha. Four Amanda totally blew up her own deal with Shah which was honestly luck and a godsend for me haha. Him using that power against someone that isn't me would be huge. Even if he uses it on Chelsia I kind of doubt he puts me up.
For the vote tomorrow, I'm pretty indifferent. Pete staying maybe gives chelsia a number but him going makes her more reliant on me. Susie is probably in the couple so her staying is another target that's good.
Moral of the story: I didn't want to spend another 20 days playing this to say "good game glyn" at the end. I wanted to play on my terms. And that's this chaotic nonsense going on now.

to be clear: I told the truth about me guessing the power from Shah. Not about me talking to chelsia haha.

Another key point potentially missing from my ramblings:
Amanda thinks Shahbaz outed the plan, which is why they blew up in the house chat. Shahbaz did not actually reveal it as far as I know, but I told Chelsia to act as though Shahbaz did, to confirm Amanda’s suspicions and to protect me and Spiral. Glyn said Chelsia told him she was told about the plan by Shahbaz and one other person. Chelsia denied saying that, so it appears Glyn was fishing and trying to see if I’d crack. If so, it’s a good move (or Chelsia was just being sloppy and forgetting what she said). I did this whole clarifying the timeline confused thing that I think sort of worked. Basically admitted to confirming to Chelsia that the plan was known, but only after she already knew. Which was true, but I made it seem like my confirmation came about ten minutes later than it really did, only after Amanda confirmed it herself.

Two things Glyn does very well that show he is a vet:
1) asking you things in ways to make you admit stuff while pretending he’s not calling you out. E.g. Do you know why Sezer said he’s doubting Huasos? His implication is what did you say to Sezer.
2) Extending the truth to make a believable lie. E.g. Chelsia tells him shahbaz told her. He extends that truth that she said shahbaz and someone else, and uses it as an accusation to get me to come clean.

You ever gonna tell us who you think Glyn is? Big Brother doesn't like secrets, James...
