Since week 10 is a fast forward, a quick DR will do!
Now I don't know if some of these other players really get the point of a fast forward week considering how long it took some of them to compete, but it's working better than last week did.
TBH I don't really want HOH this week because it's getting to be exactly like it was last season where I'm "allied" with everyone and so betrayal is inevitable. Hopefully these houseguests take it a little better than those in the last season. Anyways when I get on the board and see it is completely locked down I guess at least one of these comps is going to be some sort of memory day challenge. Since I wasn't here for the first part of the game and never really went back and studied it, I figured I'm screwed on whichever comp that is.
But my luck is with me because the Guess the Days challenge is HOH, which as I already said, I didn't want. I try to work out what I know, but others are a complete shot in the dark. Julie asks for my noms and I decide to stay with what I said last week - Drew and Shane. Shane because he's completely gone AWOL and isn't even really playing anymore as far as I can tell and Drew because he's the only one I don't have some sort of alliance with out of the rest.
Then comes veto. I know this is the comp that I need to focus more on. Luckily, though it's also memory related, this one seems doable. I get through it pretty easily, but I'm slightly worried about round 3. Of course, that's the one where Jen was the answer because why wouldn't she be a thorn in my side even beyond the grave lol.
Then it's a bit of a waiting game.....
Then results are posted.
I do horrible at HOH (no surprise!) and Drew wins. Unfortunately he nominates me. Now since I was going to nom him right back, I completely understand, but still - not what I like to wake up to in the morning. Plus it takes away my never being nom'd once I got into the Big House argument I had for final 2. Luckily I'm against Shane so even if I end up on the block against him at vote, I feel like I might have a chance. I make my way over to the veto thread and that one is a little more pleasing. I watch as round by round people are eliminated until it comes down to Andrew and I. In the final round, I knock him out with my super lucky guess of Meg! So I win POV for the second week in a row!!!
Like Julie predicts in the veto meeting thread, I take myself right back off that block because I'm not spending any more time there than necessary. I think all is well and good until I get a message from Dani talking about Andrew never thinking he would be the renom. I go to look and like she said, Drew did a lovely post where he shows how he used random.org and came up with the worst case scenario.
First off, I'm sad because Andrew is my favorite person. Literally I call him my Big Brother boo when I talk about this game to my family. I don't want to see him on the block at all. Especially as my replacement because I saved myself. If I have any part of him leaving the game, that would completely suck. Dani immediately brings up the idea that her, Lori, and I take advantage of this and vote him out. I start doing damage control and shut that down quick. I bring up the argument that Shane has basically quit the game with how he's been missing comps lately and no one's talked to him for weeks. I don't really mention Andrew, but make it clear that I'm not on board with that. I message Lori to see if Dani's gotten to her yet and basically confirm we're voting Shane because of inactivity, but never hear anything back. When I message Drew to confirm Shane's the target, he's like "I don't really care who goes."
Which makes me feel like this.......................................
If you use random.org to choose the replacement nom, then isn't it logical to assume the original person is the target?! Unless you fake those results until you get what you want. I feel like he's full of BS, but whatever, not going to stress about that right this second.
Andrew tells me that he has all the votes on his side and hopefully it's true. Jessie I believe and Lori, I think I believe. I at least feel like she would come clean to me if she was gonna vote him out. Danielle, I don't believe what she says about her votes because she's lied so many times in the game. The funny thing is that she keeps doing it like we still believe her. As long as she doesn't get in Lori and Drew's ear, I think we'll be ok. And in regards to next week, Drew - the one person I would be worried about winning potentially HOH - doesn't get to compete. How about that?! LOL
Praying I wake to good news tomorrow!
