I figured I would just go with my instincts for the HoH comp. It's really impossible to strategize for this one, unless the whole house wants the same HoH to win. We'll see what happens! Hope I stay on the A-list.

I knew it wouldnt benefit to strategize for this luck based comp. Though Im confused why Drew put a multiplier in a box without putting another one of his balls with it. Makes me think he's dumb.
Bradley wins HoH. He ensures my safety. Im still re-building trust with him, since he would've voted me out in a previous ORG when we were down to final 3. But, I was definitely his BFF this week! We strategized about his noms, and we agreed on putting up Britney. Not sure with who yet. I hope to protect mike and kate, so I'm thinking he'll nominate either Christie or Dianna, as he said he would like to target a girl, but he ensured Lindsay, Nicki, and Sandra their safety this week.
I also suggested him switching Dianna and Britney on the list, to make Lindsay use her bump up power, and Britney using it right after. Hopefully they'll waste their power so we won't have to worry about it in the future!
So many factors to consider. It's crazy!!

WOAH! Bradley's getting smited big time! I think a huge part of that has to do with Nicki. Nicki told me that Bradley told Britney that I suggested to Bradley to nominate Britney (good luck following that ). Bradley also name-dropped Kate and Nicki. Nicki agreed that she suggested Britney, but told Bradley she changed her mind later. Bradley's mistake #1: Name dropping. I can't believe he told Britney, who he's NOMINATING, that Nicki, Kate, and I suggested him to nominate her. That airs dirty laundry, and it makes me not trust Bradley with what I say to him. And it sucks for him, because at this moment, I'm denying that I suggested Britney. I completely did, but that's all it was: a suggestion. And I'm not going to break any ties with anyone as long as they are in the house. And Bradley name-dropping me and of lot of others kind of broke a lot of ties people had with Bradley. Instead of name-dropping, Bradley should have stepped up and said, "I'm nominating you because I'm HoH and I can do whatever the hell I want." He tried pleasing the house/taking the easy way out, and it backfired. And I feel bad because I was a big factor in helping him with his nominations. But I've already been telling people I don't plan on being close with him this game, so if he throws me under the bus again, I'll simply deny because most of the conversations we had were not written down. But, I really appreciate Bradley letting me give input, and it shows me how much I value to him. I just don't want this sausage fest alliance, and it seems that's all who's Bradley's close with. He actually told me he wanted to nominate two girls this week, and that no guys were options. I just suggested Britney and Dianna to him because they came from our previous ORG and it would be nice to cut that number down, but then Bradley showed me a PM Christie sent to him, saying "Congratulations on being HoH", and that's when I said, "Christie's a FAKE ASS BITCH!!" She never talks to you. This is fakism at it's finest. Nominate her with Britney lol. We'll see if Bradley can cover his tracks. Good luck, because Nicki is GREAT at figuring out the truth. That's why I simply deny any involvement and move on to a different subject/sign off the chat

WOW! I cannot believe I got SECOND on that reward challenge! I just wanted to prove I was active (and to not let down the hosts), but the fact that I got second when I wasn't trying my hardest on a pretty busy day for me, makes me think my opponents are lame. I'm just glad Lindsay's overwhelming lead took off attention from me Also, my questions for the veto competition narrowed the field of the vase with the prize in it! It's down to vase 7 and 9. I'll tell Bradley to pick one of those numbers first, and I'll pick the other to hopefully ensure one of us gets the prize. Other than that, I don't really care. Penn told me which vase had my name in it, so I'll definitely be putting that number at the bottom of my list. Other than that, random.org here I come!

Bradley ended up using one of his questions to tell me which one has the prize! Thanks Bradley! Vase 7, I'm smashing you as long as Sean or Mike doesn't first. NEXT TARGET: Sean Hayes. Needs to go. Britney would be a fun target as well. Her passive aggressive smiting of Bradley deserves for her to leave this house. I keep forgetting about Johnny. Christie's boring. Sandra sucks. Drew sucks. Dianna sucks. They can all leave

I swear, if I don't win something soon, I'm gonna SNAP! I feel like I keep making top 2, top 3, top half in everything, but never number 1. And I don't even get a prize! FUCKK, I mean I'm happy Mike got it, but I told him some of the questions I asked, and he fed me bull shit saying he asked if vases 23-25 were empty, and other meaningless crap that wouldn't give him vase #7 as his number 1 pick.
I wanna shoot someone. But, now it's time to talk to Mike! And be happy he won. Though I feel now I'm not as high of an alliance member with him as I thought I was.

I actually plan on talking with Bradley to talk to Kate to use the veto to backdoor Mike, because we have no idea what the prize is, and he already lied to both of us. So he'll probably lie about his power, so it would be in our best interest in my opinion to get him out. Of course, I'll let you guys know how that conversation goes.

AIM convos of the master plan:
Adam: herro Bradley: what if its a DPOV Bradley: that can only be used this week ? Adam: that would be dumb Adam: and i wouldnt care Adam: at least it would be gone Adam: and you wouldnt be nommed Bradley: right Bradley: so how should I talk to Britney ? Adam: send her a pm Adam: just apologizing for taking the easy way out Adam: and saying your pushing for kate to use the veto Bradley: "Hey Brit, sorry about this week. I really just wanted to take the easy way out and I really didn't want to upset you. I wanted to let you know that I am pushing for Kate to use the veto on you. I hope we can fix our friendship. Please know that I have your back and would love to gain your trust back" Adam: perfect
Kate: I'm talking to Bradley. Adam: oh is it going good? Kate: Yeah, we're really brain storming. Kate: If we were to backdoor Mike where would the votes come from. Kate: I said, well one... I can make a deal with the person I use the Veto on. Adam: exactly Adam: johnnys open to the idea Adam: i am Adam: nicki Adam: anyone with common sense would want to get rid of someone with a power Kate: I think we can do this. Kate: Are you talking to him too? Adam: yeah! Adam: im super excited! Adam: we really can pull this off Kate: Okay. Kate: Yay! Big move! Adam: WOO!!
Johnny and I found out we both came into college as business majors, and turned into philosophy majors! Johnny: so what kind of philosophy did you stufy most? Adam: i love philosophy of religion Adam: that class was really interesting for me Adam: on a quick sidenote Adam: im speaking with bradley and kate and theyre thinking about going through with the backdoor thing Adam: just for your info Adam: moving on Adam: im taking a christianity and philosophy class this semester Johnny: yeah I was talking to Bradley a little Johnny: I got that vibe too
Sandra was a challenge, that I didn't really want to deal with. But here's a glimpse of our looping convo: Sandra: I mean does Mike have an alliance together that I'm not aware of? Adam: im not gonna beg you to vote a certain sandra! Adam: if your mind's made up on voting out christie, thats fine Sandra: I'm not asking you too Adam: and i hope it doesnt sound like im upset b/c im not lol Sandra: I just want to be clear on the intentions of this vote and the more information I have on it the more I would be willing to consider it Sandra: I mean if Mike had some large alliance or something that would be a concern for me Sandra: Since I know I'm not part of it lol Adam: ok well there's my case Adam: 1. Mike has power Adam: 2. Mike lies Adam: 3. Mike can manipulate anyone into thinking he has anything Adam: 4. Mike's a huge threat that needs to be taken care of immediately Adam: thats all Sandra: Right Sandra: Well of the 3 of you..you had the most convincing argument lol Adam: go off of your instincts Adam: thanks lol Sandra: So *claps hands* Adam: and i really hope you decide to roll with me Sandra: It's so late though I know I have to sleep on this, but will give you a definite answer tomorrow Adam: i would greatly appreciate b/c i would KNOW how hard of a decision it would have been for you Sandra: Yeah because I really hate keeping inactives lol Adam: so know that your vote will definitely matter to me Adam: but if not i understand
Basic summary: I suggested the backdoor Mike plan to Bradley and Kate, b/c after some heavy thinking, I'm pissed that Mike lied to me about the questions he told me he asked Housecalls. None of the questions he told me had to do with the prize, yet he gets the prize on his first try? Made me think he was dishonest, and now he has a secret prize that'll remain secret b/c I won't trust anything else that comes out of his mouth. I spoke with Johnny and Nicki about it, and they say the idea makes sense, and now Kate and Bradley are going through with it. Sandra is a lost cause, but if she decides to vote with us then hey, it's whatever. But she's really annoying with voting alone. Sandra says she wants to get rid of inactives, but I consider Sandra inactive.
Lots of persuasion from me, we'll see if anything ends up working. I'm definitely putting myself out there. Let's see what happens.

Nicki: Mike really never tries to talk to me, Christie does Nicki: So right nowww Probably mike Adam: perfect

Sean: it's obvious you and brad are pretty close. Adam: go on Sean: i have nothing to go on about? Adam: im not sure what you're asking from me Sean: do you know why Mike is being backdoored? Adam: i think it has to do with the prize he won Sean: but no one knows what he won? and i won a prize, does that mean i have a target on my back? Adam: ok here's the thing: Adam: mike lied to me about the questions he told me he asked housecalls Adam: it had nothing to do with the prize, yet he gets the prize on his turn Adam: it made me lose A LOT of trust in him Adam: and now that he has the prize, he can easily lie about whatever he has Adam: so i'm down with taking care of him immediately for his dishonesty to me personally Adam: but that's just from me Adam: i can't speak for anyone else Sean: and you've convinced Brad to back door him. Sean: you've got some good pull. Adam: we'll see what happens Adam: nothings official yet
Adam: i mean, the only reason i suggested it Adam: is because mike lied to me about the 3 questions he asked housecalls Lindsay: It was your idea? Lindsay: I would have the prize if I had gone first, ugh lol Adam: me too!! Adam: and i was right after mike lol Lindsay: I will vote or Christie if Mikes up. Hes atleast playing the game. Adam: yeah im down for either one leaving Adam: as long as it isn't me Lindsay: lol
Britney: So yeah me and Bradley have cleared the air, Kate said she's taking me off the block Adam: i heard! Adam: i'm super glad! Britney: me too obviously haha like why wouldn't I? Adam: lol Britney: and Bradley also filled me in the plan to backdoor Mike so I'm down with that Adam: sweet!
Right now it seems: Adam, Kate, Nicki and Britney will vote out Mike. Sean and Lindsay will vote out Christie. Johnny and Sandra are wildcards. Have yet to speak to Dianna and Drew
If Bradley and I aren't in an alliance, we definitely are now. Fuckkk...

What a fucking waste of time. I hate bradley. He tells me to rack up the votes to get out mike, and then he pussy's out of an expected nomination. Fuck him, I'm over him. I told him to nominate me, and he won't because he thinks I'll help him in the future. Fuck that, he's on my shit list. As well as the rest of the house. Except you Nicki, Kate, and Johnny

JUST PREP:
Welcome to your 3rd HoH challenge! Hopefully this will prove to be an interesting challenge which shows just how bad each of you think that you need the power this early in the game, or how hard you are willing to fight for it. This will be an 'endurance' challenge of sorts, so let's get on with the rules...
During the weekend, the 11 of you (Bradley will sit out as outgoing HoH) will be showing which one of you is the Life of the Party. Or, in our case, the Head of House. Being a star often requires late nights and may social responsibilities. How well can you balance the demands of being popular?
You will be balancing 4 different actions to earn yourself points.
Sign an Autograph- 5 points (1 time every 15 minutes) Signing an autograph while you're out on the town or at a party is often going to be a request of your fans. For each one you sign, you will earn 5 points. However, you don't want to waste all your time singing autographs, so you cannot sign more than one in a 15 minute time span. Thus, if you sign an autograph at 10:00 pm, the earliest you could sign another autograph is 10:15 pm. Your posts don't have to be EXACTLY 15 minutes apart. So, you could sign another autograph at 10:16, for example, or any time after.
To sign an autograph post the following in your challenge thread: "Blake signs an autograph." (With your name, not mine.)
Take a Shot of Liquor- 10 points (1 time every 30 minutes) Let's face it, being a celebrity can be stressful. You'll need to have some alcohol to keep things bearable. Plus, who doesn't like getting a little tipsy? For each shot you take, you will earn 10 points. However, you don't want to do anything you'll regret, so you shouldn't take more than one shot in a 30 minute time span. Thus, if you take a shot at 10:00 pm, the earliest you could take another shot is 10:30 pm. Your posts don't have to be EXACTLY 30 minutes apart. So, you could take another shot at 10:37, for example, or any time after.
To take a shot post the following in your challenge thread: "Blake takes a shot." (With your name, not mine.)
Update Your Twitter- 15 points (1 time every 60 minutes) All your fans are dying to know what you are doing this very second. Whether you writing you next big hit or you just made yourself a PB&J sandwich, they want to know! Sadly, you can only twit your fans once every 60 minutes. Thus, if you tweet your fans at 10:00pm then you can not tweet them again until 11:00pm. Your posts don't have to be EXACTLY 60 minutes apart. So, you could sign another autograph at 11:12, for example, or any time after.
To update your Twitter post the following in your challenge thread: "Blake updates her Twitter." (With your name, not mine.)
Hit the Red Carpet- 20 points (1 time every 90 minutes) If you want to be the hottest celebrity around, then you must make your appearance on the Red Carpet. Whether it's the premiere of your new movie or just attending a popular event, the paparazzi and your fans are itching to see what latest fashion you are wearing. However, your schedule is limited and you can only attend the Red Carpet every 90 minutes since there are the after parties to attend to, and also the after, after parties as well. Thus, if you attend the Red Carpet at 10:00 pm, you cannot attend again until 11:30 pm. Your posts don't have to be EXACTLY 90 minutes apart. So, you could sign another autograph at 11:48, for example, or any time after.
To attend the Red Carpet post the following in your challenge thread: "Blake attends the Red Carpet." (With your name, not mine.)
Now, here's how this challenge timing and deadline will work. You will have until Sunday night at 8 pm EST to START your 24 hour posting period. Whenever you make your first post (preferably in a special thread designed for this challenge), your 24 hour time period will start and end EXACTLY 24 hours after your first post. So, it is that first post that must happen before the deadline. You don't have to finish by the deadline, but simply start by then. Theoretically if you start this challenge shortly after it is released, you can easily finish the whole thing before the deadline is up. However, if you wait to start until Sunday night just before the deadline, you could essentially be posting until Monday night. Since it's the weekend, we wanted to give you some flexibility.
Here's another element to this challenge. Since it's going to take more time than the normal 24 hour challenge, you MUST also post your nomination ceremony in your DR in the case that you win HoH. If you fail to have your potential nomination ceremony posted in your DR by the time your 24 hour posting period has ended, you'll be ineligible for winning HoH and earn a strike.
If you have any questions, please post them here. Both of us have experience with a challenge VERY similar to this one (Penn created it and Blake won it), so we know that it's quite simple if you read carefully and take time to understand. However, we're more than willing to answer any questions to clarify any confusion.
Note: No editing posts. You can delete, but not edit.
Best of luck! Go be Rockstarz!
