Diary Room Entries #4

I really love my Temptation from last week. It's perfect. I'm immune and two other people will be immune for the week but then everyone else is fair game and could possibly be evicted. With this, I know that this next week is about to be all drama with the vote. People are going to be wanting to take out certain people for their own agenda. However, I think it's really important that someone like Judd or Eric leave this week for my game, however, I'm going to make sure to set up the future downfall of the likes of Sam. Sam has been coming across extremely dangerous to me, and I can't have him in this game.

Last night, I was talking to Sam and he asked me what I thought about the vote off this week. I simply told him that it would be great if we could just get a majority to vote together and make this an easy week. I told him that I had heard Amanda and Deana [Amanda from Ed, Deana from Amanda] but that I would personally like to vote out Judd. The next morning I get approached by Deana right off the bat, asking me who said her name this week. It instantly clicks in my head that Sam ran his mouth off to her. It's to be expected as I knew the two had an "alliance", but it still annoyed me anyways. I told Deana that Amanda had mentioned her name as a possible target for the week.

As Deana and I talked about it, I mentioned to her how Sam clearly has alliances all over the game. This is when Deana mentioned to me that Sam told her, "Don't tell Rhian!" about mentioning someone saying her name for the week. Alright. Sam is trying to keep all his little alliances in separate boxes and trying to shut them up so they don't talk. Too bad. Deana and I talked and we're completely onto Sam. I told Deana all about Sam and his possible strong ties with Ed and Jade, about Ed taking Sam on vacation but also how Jade clearly threw the Head of Household to Sam last week. So now, I have Deana in on my cause to go kangaroo hunting very, very soon. Sorry, Host Kat! :X

The goal this week with all the madness is to make sure that the core group of people I socialize with the majority of the time all come together on one common name, and that name will be either Judd or Eric. Judd or Eric don't really help my game so either going would make it an easy week and wouldn't be a risk moving into next week, which is why I'm not going to target Sam, Ed, or Jade. The core group will be myself, Amanda, Helen, GM, Jade, Deana, and Peter. This won't be an alliance, but just a voting block for this week and the week we all decide to strike Sam and his allies. I've already done my job in squashing the beef between Amanda and Deana temporarily, as we're coming together for the same cause. I'm playing mediator for the sake of the plan.

To get everyone on the same page, I had to bank on certain facts shifting people's opinions. Amanda now knows that Ed wants her out this week. I spilled those beans. Amanda needs to know that Ed's not her friend like he pretends to be and that neither is Sam. Helen is close with Amanda, that much is clear, so I expect her to be Amanda's tagalong vote. GM and I are on the same page, we want Eric or Judd going this week. Faye will be our tagalong vote with the Femme Fatales, plus Sam nominated her. She'll definitely be fine booting Sam.

Deana and I had a long discussion about Sam's alliance-whoring, so she's all in on making a move, and has even contemplated going on her competition whore streak, that I know she's capable of. Lastly, Peter. Peter now knows that Sam mentioned his name as a possible boot this week. I spilled those beans too. With that seven all indirectly being together and joining in on the same cause, I think it will be easy to get everyone on board in booting Eric or Judd this week and then in these next few rounds leading up to Jury, we'll strike Sam; if we can't get Sam out, then Ed or Jade just might become collateral damage.

Today was such a massive headache. I'm going to try and go through everything that happened. So, apparently last night, Faye decided to take it upon herself to make a three-person alliance with Peter and Judd. In this three-person alliance, they decided that the target should be Ed. Okay, that's fine. Thanks for your input. But the part that really annoyed me was that Faye decided that myself or GM shouldn't be involved in this vote, because GM "could be" with the Australians and I am probably well-connected because I got Temptation. I'm sorry, but are you kidding me? I don't know if I speak for GM when I say this, but I have had Faye's back ever since we made the three-person alliance, and now she tries to keep me in the minority?

I was lucky enough to hear all of this from Deana and Peter this morning. However the difference between the two was that Deana was on board in booting Ed and going along with Faye's plan, but Peter was hesitant and still wanted to boot Eric. I quickly got to talking with Helen and Amanda and we all were going over what to do. I, for one, was pissed off that Faye was trying to change everything, everything that was already set in stone and simple from the day before. Eric was going to go, it was going to be a smooth week, and then everyone would go for Sam or whoever. But no, Faye had to stick her big nose in everything and mess it all up and make it far more difficult then it needed to be. My saving grace to reverting the plan back to Eric occurred when Judd decided to go around to people saying he wanted to still boot Deana.

I instantly told Deana of how the Ed plan looked like it would fall through and she decided it was probably safer to fall back on the Eric vote, as we had all originally planned. Duh. It's important that Eric go for my game because I feel that between Eric and Ed, I have more of a read on Ed's game as opposed to Eric's. In addition to that, Eric is now deadset on trying to take out GinaMarie because apparently Sam told Eric that GinaMarie mentioned his name. Eric came to me this morning saying he didn't understand why GM was targeting him because she always pretends to be his best friend. Drama. As of right now, myself, GM, Amanda, Helen, Peter, and Deana are all voting to evict Eric. That's six votes and if Ed decides to vote Eric too, that means Eric will be evicted.

I made a three-person alliance with Deana and Peter today: Beauties & The Geek. In all of this drama, these two came to me and told me everything and I love them for that. They've shown me that I can trust them and I want them to know they can trust me too. Inside this voting block, I am aligned with Amanda, Helen, and GM, then also have my deal with GM, and now my other deal with Deana and Peter. I feel that if I were to move forwards long term with this group, I could be in a great position. Deana really wanted Ed out this round and I see why, and I agree that Ed needs to go soon, but I didn't want to do it now because that would upset GM and isolate her from us, when we could really use her. Amanda and Helen understood this as the four of us are aligned.

There was no way I was going to let this whole thing with Faye just evaporate into thin air either. Not a chance. As soon as Faye got on, I approached Faye and GM followed me. I asked Faye what happened last night with the vote, and Faye played dumb for the first five minutes saying, "Yeah the vote jumped around to Jade, then it jumped back to Eric," and she went quiet. So then I said, "and then it went to Ed, right?" And there was silence for about five minutes. She knew that her whole plan had leaked. As soon as that happened, GM and I asked why she was trying to exclude us. Faye said it was because she thought that GM gave away her numbers in the last competition. This again?

That whole confrontation lasted for about fifteen minutes when I capped it off and told her that we were all on the same page. Before Faye had been trying to make her own plans and blow the house into chaos there was already a plan semi-in-place to take out Eric and then shift attention to Sam in the coming weeks. Faye needed to know that we weren't on opposing sides. She kept saying she was sorry and that she realized she made a mistake and she'll evict Eric too. I'll forgive, but I won't forget. Faye doing this was extremely shady. For the sake of my game and the alliance, I played it off as if it were cool and I let it go. I know GM is still heated but she knows it's best we try to pretend everything is okay and move forward. I just hope everything stays intact now.
