Crap, I'm looking at my submission for the challenge and I know I got #7 wrong because I meant to put B but I put A for some dumb reason. And I think I got another wrong. 7/9 is not going to be enough to win. Why do I suck at this game?
Okay, time for a more serious diary room session though.
If I do happen to win this HoH, the people that are definitely safe are...
Zach Sofia
Probably safe...
Brian
Replacement worthy...
Sam
Danger...
Brittany and Neda
Sam would be in danger but he is not a big threat like Brittany and Neda are. However, if he won HoH then I would be very worried about being nominated. I would only be safe if Sofia and probably Brian won. Brittany would likely nominate me even though we have good enough chats. Neda probably would. She hasn't spoken to me lately until today and I didn't really feel like talking to her plus she didn't try and drive the conversation and she was the one who initiated the convo so wth?
The competition is tough this season. The remaining players are mostly top notch. I would say Sam and Brian are probably the worst of the remaining players. Sofia isn't as social and does not make her presence known on AIM very much but the girl is a competition beast. I'm impressed with how many sweeps we have had this season. And I find it pretty telling that of the remaining players, only 5 of us have never been nominated. Brittany was nominated by myself and Brian has been nominated twice. He's the only player remaining who has stayed on the block up to eviction time and remained. Every other player has been voted out. That has nothing to do with him though, and everything to do with what the HoHs wanted that week. If he goes up again, he could very well be evicted unless he is up against someone who is not considered a threat. It really sucks that he could slide by because he sucks so much.
At this point, I probably want to sit beside Sofia. I would hope that she would like to sit beside me and also hope that Zach and/or Brian would like to sit beside me at the end.
If I find myself nominated this week, I either need to hope for a tie where the HoH would keep me or need to hope that none of Brian, Zach, Sofia are sitting next to me and the three of them can vote to keep me.
So, just gotta wait for them results. I will be so happy if somehow my score is enough to crown me HoH. The video went fast and the time goes by when you are answering so I hope people panic or mess up or couldn't remember things.
I only got 6/9 blah. Sofia or Brian please win. I don't think Brian is capable enough to win though. Hindsight, I know I could have done better and in a much faster time. Maybe I'll somehow be seen as a such a loser when it comes to competitions and that could be a plus.
Buttering Brian up already to make sure I have him in my pocket this week.
Overall a good strategy talk though. He feels it would be a mistake for Sam to nominate either of us this week. And talked about if people want their fates to be in their own hands then neither of us should leave this week if we are sitting on the block at the end of the week. I totally agree...question is...does Sam feel that way?
Sam replied to my pm I sent to him thanking me for congratulating him on his win and said he would be on around noon today if I wanted to talk to him then. **fingers crossed**
I need to talk to him about the Brittany, Neda, Zach alliance that I suspect. But I suspect that Zach and Sam are close and I don't want Zach to go anywhere anyway so I will make sure I am clear about that.

I think my chat with Sam went well. I pushed for Brittany and Neda to be nominated. Talked about the suspected alliance. Said it would be bad for myself, him, Sofia, Brian to target each other and in some cases that is unavoidable because Brian and Sofia will probably target each other. I even volunteered to be a replacement nominee if the veto is used if Sam would keep me in the event of a tie.
If I find myself nominated as well...I would feel okay if I were up against Neda. I think I could get Brian and Sofia's votes to stay and then Sam would vote to keep me in a tie. I would also have a shot at the veto. So we'll see...I needed to talk with Sam that is for sure. But it went well!
Okay so Brian tells me that he was told by Sam that the nominees are going to be myself and Brian.
If so, I think Brian finally leaves this week. Zach/Sofia vote to keep me. Brittany and Neda vote to evict me. Sam breaks the tie and keeps me.
Hopefully anyways. If nominations stay the same. Ideally, I need to get taken off the block though and win PoV this week. More ideally, that isn't the case about nominations and I don't even go on the block. But if Brian was told that.
If I do go out this round, which is possible, at least I went out trying to make moves against some strong players. Right now, things don't look good for me. No one even wants to talk to me and no surprise there. Brittany and Neda were probably told by Sam that I would nominate them.
I highly doubt I win veto. It was really difficult and I don't think I will be the closest that many times. Another failed challenge attempt. Maybe people won't make it in the 25 seconds? lol
I don't think that Zach will use the power of veto on me. He was the one who told Sam that I mentioned his name. I knew that would come back to bite me. I only said it because it was very weird for Zach and Neda to both be questioning me about Brittany. Like, this sucks! I was so close to winning the veto. I'm sad
I don't want to look desperate so I won't approach Zach immediately. I just wish I had won that and could save myself. So close! It's so disappointing. Zach should seriously use it on me. I have his back. But I don't know if he will want to piss Sam off and also force someone else to be nominated all to save me. Like why did he have to try so hard if him and Sam are so close? He was safe no matter what.
Brian lied to Sam and told him that I said I would nominate Zach. WOW! Fuck you, Brian. Zach told me after my pitch to him to use the veto on me. Also, I'm probably going home this round unless I can convince Sam to keep me around. Zach would now like to keep me again but he can't do it without Sam's okay and whatnot. So now, I sent a message to Sam with pros to keeping me. What a mess.
Trust me when I say, I am not going down without a fight. I've never campaigned so hard. At least I only have to campaign to 3 people though. Zach, Sam, Sofia. They'd all be making a mistake if they let Brian stick around. If Sam wants Brian to stay then he is making a mistake letting someone like Neda stick around. He can't be close to everyone. If Zach is his closest ally, keep someone else who is extremely close to Zach so that both of you stay safe for the longest amount of time possible. Duh.
Now I'm stuck waiting for a reply from Mr. I Don't Sign On For Over 17 Hours.
