Timmy ( meduncan) and Dominick ( dvisco1102), I'm sorry but neither of you will have a shot at re-entering the house. The two of you are out of the game for good.
Lance, Chris and Cam will advance to Round 2, with all votes in their favor being carried over to this round.
Public vote: Comment below to vote for one of the HouseGuests to have a shot at re-entering the game after the sixth eviction. The winner of this round will face off against either Carly or Seth in the duel following the eviction.
Few things to remember:
-If you are one of the evictees, you cannot vote for yourself
-Winning the public vote does not guarantee re-entry; you could still lose to either Carly or Seth in the duel
-Absolutely NO spamming allowed; I cannot stress this enough. If one of the evictees is spamming users to vote for them and I find out, that evictee will lose their chance at coming back and all votes for them to return (including those in round 1) will not count.
-If you have voted in round 1, you cannot vote again. If you do so, that vote will not be counted.
This was the second HoH in a row where Courtney almost won but didn't. This time, she lost to Trey, who was the one that she & Carly did not want to get the HoH. On the other hand, this was exactly what Trey, Robynn and Austin needed as they have the chance to split Carly & Courtney up without any interruptions, such as Felicia & Seth blowing up the plan like they did last week. While Trey has his sights set on Carly & Courtney, Kass now wants Felicia out before either of the two as she feels that Felicia doesn't deserve to be here. This made Robynn feel uneasy as Kass' personal grudge against Felicia & Seth is hurting their alliance. However, Trey did consider Seth as a replacement nominee if either of the girls end up winning PoV as Seth was also targeting him during the HoH competition.
Facing the inevitable nominations, both Carly & Courtney did not bother campaigning to Trey as they felt that he wasn't worth their time and that they did not want to resort to sucking up to the HoH to avoid being the target. However, Carly did start "planting a seed" to Natalie & Niki by warning them that if she & Courtney are the next two out, then Trey & Robynn would take control of the house. Once again, Natalie & Niki are in the position to flip should the plan change.

Trey has nominated Carly & Courtney for eviction. This came as no surprise to the house as he saw them as threats while they saw him as a threat as well. This is the second time in a row that Carly & Courtney are nominated together.
There was not much happening strategically following nominations. However, Kass is still feeling very concerned about Felicia. Although she still wants Carly out, she feels that Felicia is very untrustworthy and also very stupid. Kass told Trey that if nominations stay the same, she would vote Carly out. Trey did agree with her, but decided against it as soon as she left the HoH room as the target moves from Carly to Courtney due to the fact that she nearly won HoH twice.
Natalie was a bit confused as to why Carly chose her to compete in the veto competition as she wasn't sure if the girls alliance is still alive. Both Carly & Felicia told her that it was time to start thinking on her own as they did not want her to debate messing up Trey's plan; they just wanted her to do it. On the other hand, Natalie wanted to throw the veto competition as Felicia would be just as effective as she would be.
--Power of Veto Competition--
In this competition, the HouseGuests will be shown a task based on a previous competition, and they have to guess how long it will take them to complete the task. The person with the lowest time will have to face that task. If they succeed, then the person with the highest time will be eliminated. If they fail, then that HouseGuest will be eliminated. The last HouseGuest standing will win the Power of Veto.

Had Kass won the veto, the votes against Courtney would have been set and Courtney would have been out this week. But with Courtney saving herself with the veto, Carly's back is now against the wall and Trey is forced to choose between Felicia & Seth to sit next to her.
Robynn asked Kass about who she would evict between Carly & either Felicia or Seth. Kass then told her that she would much rather keep Carly over Felicia & Seth; the two are her personal targets while Carly is now powerless. This annoyed Robynn as Carly is the one that needs to be evicted and Kass keeps interfering with that by targeting Felicia & Seth. As she tells this to Austin & Trey, they are concerned about whether she would flip. They now view her as the loose cannon as Trey admits that they should not have dropped Tony for Kass. He also admits that maybe he should put her up as he feels that she is very selfish. Had Kass not been so rash with her decision this week, it would have been a no-brainer for Trey to put Seth up.
However, should Trey target Kass instead of Carly, his alliance + Tony would be 4-6 with their fates depending on Natalie & Niki. The safer decision would be to put Seth up, but that would mean banking on not only the votes from Kass, Natalie & Niki, but the viewers as well to evict Carly. Note that none of the HouseGuests are aware of the returning evictee twist as of now.
At the veto ceremony, there was no question that Courtney would use the veto on herself, which she did. Despite Trey's paranoia against Kass possibly flipping, he decided to set it aside for the time being as he nominated Seth for also targeting him in the HoH competition and for being a bigger threat than Felicia.
While Carly's eviction would be inevitable, there is a lot riding on this vote as Trey needs this to take control of the house. However, there are a few critical votes in order to get Carly out over Seth.
Has Carly's game come to an end, or will an 11th hour flip send Seth packing? Plus, who will face off against either Carly or Seth in a duel to return to the house, and who will be the one to return to the game? Find out in the next post!
Public vote: Comment below to evict either Carly or Seth. The nominee with the most public votes will receive an extra vote against him/her in the eviction.
Public vote: Comment below to vote for one of the HouseGuests to have a shot at re-entering the game after the sixth eviction. The public vote will be split into two rounds, with this being the first round. The first round will end after the Week 6 events are posted. At that point, the top 3 evictees will move on to Round 2, while the bottom 2 will lose their chance at coming back.
Few things to remember:
-If you are one of the evictees, you cannot vote for yourself
-Winning the public vote does not guarantee re-entry; you could still lose to the sixth evictee in the duel
-Absolutely NO spamming allowed; I cannot stress this enough. If one of the evictees is spamming users to vote for them and I find out, that evictee will lose their chance at coming back and all votes for them to return will not count.
Kass' intended target this week was Carly, but Carly cannot be evicted thanks to Felicia using the veto on her. The reason that Dominick was nominated over Seth, even though Felicia was closer to Seth, was to ensure that Courtney would be evicted instead as Seth would be a bigger threat. At first glance, it would appear that Courtney's eviction was inevitable, but there are some cracks in the votes to support Kass' plan. Mainly, Tony is drifting away from Trey, Austin and Robynn as they did not even notice him in the alliance since before Cam's eviction, which led him to rethink who he should team up with. Also, Niki & Natalie only saw Carly as their threat, not Courtney. Even with them rethinking their votes, it would not be enough to save Courtney.
That was the plan until the eve of the eviction, when Felicia & Kass got into another heated argument during a conversation with several of their fellow HouseGuests in the backyard, where they talked about their lives in the outside world. In that conversation, Felicia made a smug comment about Kass' relationship status as well as how she's playing the game, where Kass did not take it very lightly. A few minutes into the argument, when Trey & Robynn came to Kass' defense against Felicia, Kass openly announced that Dominick is now her target. This was very concerning to Trey & Robynn who needed Courtney to be evicted in order to increase their chances of getting Carly out next.
The argument also guaranteed Natalie's vote against Dominick as well as Niki's vote. While both Dominick and Courtney are against Kass, Courtney would be more likely to win the next HoH. Niki then mentioned that if Courtney was saved with the veto, they would vote to keep Dominick. Natalie was once again afraid of flipping once again as that would make themselves look just as shady as Felicia, even though Kass wants Dominick out now.
---Eviction---
Courtney made herself out as a threat after winning the first HoH. Dominick simply went by unnoticed until Kass nominated him in Carly's place, who Felicia saved in response to Kass' threat. Tonight, one of them will be evicted.
As a result of the public vote, the vote is 1-0 in favor of evicting Dominick.
Carly is up first.
Three weeks ago, Courtney voted to save Carly. Will Carly do the same this week?
Carly: I vote to evict Dominick.
Seth has worked alongside Dominick since being paired up with him, but will he vote to keep him?
Seth: I vote to evict Courtney.
Felicia has made it clear that she cannot be controlled by Kass, but also that she cannot be trusted. Will her vote go against Kass' wishes?
Felicia: As a vote against Kass, I vote to evict Courtney.
Natalie was initially set on splitting up Carly & Courtney, but did Felicia's outburst change her mind?
Natalie: I vote to evict Dominick.
Niki has been back and forth with her vote, but with Natalie's decision confirmed, will Niki do the same?
Niki: I vote to evict Dominick.
The current vote is 4-2 in favor of evicting Dominick, but Trey & his alliance did not vote yet.
Tony started drifting from Trey & his alliance this week, but will his vote be in sync with how Trey would vote?
Tony: I vote to evict Courtney.
Robynn viewed Courtney as a threat, but will she consider Felicia's mistake with her vote tonight?
Robynn: Courtney is a threat, but I cannot trust Felicia anymore, so I vote to evict Dominick.
Tony & Robynn voted opposite ways, but will Trey evict one of his threats, or send Dominick packing?
Trey: I vote to evict Dominick.
It is official. With 6 votes to evict Dominick, Dominick will be evicted tonight, but let's see how Austin voted.
Austin: I vote to evict Dominick.
By a vote of 7-3, Dominick ( dvisco1102), you are evicted from the Big Brother house.
---HoH Competition---

With Trey being a big target since Chris was evicted, this was the HoH that he needed to win. How will he use this power, and how will the veto change his plans? Find out in the next post.
---New Twist---
Before the season started, I did warn you that there may be more twists to come after the duos twist ended last week. Here comes the second twist of the season.
The first 5 evicted HouseGuests (Chris - C_Shizz96, Lance - sandstormocean, Timmy - meduncan, Cam - Baseball03 and Dominick - dvisco1102) will have a chance to re-enter the game. Starting tomorrow, the public will vote for one of the first 5 evictees to have a chance at returning to the game. The winner of that poll will face off against the 6th evictee in a duel, where the winner will return to the game and reclaim HouseGuest status. The remaining HouseGuests will not be informed of this until after the sixth eviction. The voting will open tomorrow. I must remind you that spamming is strictly prohibited, especially with this twist.
With Kass winning HoH, Courtney & Carly started feeling vulnerable as they don't know where Kass' loyalty is at. Furthermore, Courtney was 2nd to Kass in the HoH competition. It wasn't long before Trey, Austin and Robynn went up to Kass' HoH room to inform her of what needs to happen. Kass is aware that Carly & Courtney needed to be split up as Carly is the biggest threat as of now, but she isn't sure about whether she should put the two of them up right now. Trey immediately pushes out the fact that Carly & Courtney need to be put up together, but Kass felt that she didn't owe Trey anything either.
Shortly after Trey left the HoH room, it was Carly's turn to sway Kass to nominate Robynn & Trey together. She stated that she didn't have that much power since Felicia won HoH. While the girls alliance agreed with what Carly said, Natalie & Niki had another conversation with Kass as soon as Carly & Courtney left the HoH room, where they told her that they would help her get Carly out. As it turns out, Natalie & Niki wanted to take control of the game and they felt that once Trey & Robynn were out, Carly would be too powerful.
With two possible nomination pairs, Kass has a lot of thinking to do. She initially wanted to win HoH, but wanted to change her mind as it would require taking a side. Courtney made herself out as a physical threat due to her performance in the HoH competition. Carly was targeted as a power player after Timmy outed the girls alliance. On the other hand, getting Carly out would ensure that Trey, Austin and Robynn would dominate for the second half of the game, considering that she wanted to be the one to get Carly out.

Kass has nominated Carly and Courtney for eviction. The two made themselves out as the biggest threats in the game. Kass felt that this was exactly what needed to happen.
Carly took her nomination better than Courtney. Carly knew that Kass was now against her, while Courtney felt like her nomination wasn't fair as she almost won, which could have saved herself and Carly. Niki & Natalie pretended to feel bad for Carly and Courtney, but the two of them were excited on the inside as they wanted it to happen as well. As for Trey, Austin and Robynn, they decided to let Kass in their alliance as their 4th as opposed to Tony, who did not speak to them that much over the past week.
Meanwhile, both Carly & Courtney needed a failsafe in case someone outside of the girls alliance wins the veto. The first ones in mind were Felicia, Dominick and Seth, who voted alongside the girls alliance since the first eviction. Felicia immediately assured the girls that she would save one of them and then gather the votes against the replacement. Carly didn't want to sacrifice Niki or Natalie (she doesn't know that they approved of Kass' nominations) but instead wanted to get Kass to go after Tony who is currently a loose cannon. Seth supported Felicia's decision, but Dominick is starting to feel uncertain about keeping the two girls in.
--Power of Veto Selection--
Kass: Trey
Carly: Seth
Courtney: Felicia
Kass chose Tony to host the competition.
Carly & Courtney lucked out with their selections as both Felicia and Seth would be able to save them. Meanwhile, Felicia & Seth were undecided on who to save between the two girls if they decide to save either of them.
--Power of Veto Competition--
In this competition, the HouseGuests must navigate a ball through a course containing 5 colored goals, with one for each round, as well as many pitfalls, each with a different number (the higher the number, the further away from the goal). At the end of each round, the HouseGuest who falls out the furthest from the goal will be eliminated. The last HouseGuest standing will win the Power of Veto.
Round 1 (max distance - 5):
Random.org decided the order for this round.
Felicia: FALLOUT; 2
Carly: FALLOUT; 3
Seth: FALLOUT; 2
Courtney: GOAL
Trey: FALLOUT; 5
Kass: FALLOUT; 2
Trey is eliminated.
Congratulations Felicia! You have won the Power of Veto!
Felicia winning the veto was what the next best thing that Carly & Courtney wanted, while it was the next worst thing for Kass as Felicia knows that she is against her since she put her up last week. However, this doesn't mean that Kass can't do anything about it. Specifically, she would threaten to put Seth or Dominick up if Felicia uses the veto. Not aware of Kass' threat, Felicia decides that she is leaning on saving Carly as she is public enemy #1 while Courtney would have a better chance at staying against the replacement.
Kass approaches Seth, Dominick and Felicia and warns Felicia not to use the veto. Felicia is quick to talk back at Kass by telling her that she got HoH-itis as she let her desire to make a big move get in the way of her own game. She tells her that she did a good job as a floater, but also mentions that winning HoH has officially ruined her game. Felicia then tells both of the guys that whoever she doesn't save with the veto would get evicted as both of the girls would be more threatening than either Dominick or Seth. However, Felicia later questioned Dominick on why he didn't mention her or Seth as he fell off in the HoH competition (when Dominick made the deal before falling off). At that point, Seth decided that Felicia is just being too rash on her actions and to just think about her decisions with the veto.
Meanwhile, Kass' conversation with Felicia frustrated her as she felt that Felicia, Dominick and Seth were not playing the game. Kass did not intend to base her nominations on personal grudges, but felt that this is how Felicia makes her decisions; she thought that Felicia's comment following Kass' threat was personal. This forced Kass to reconsider her plans as HoH as Dominick and Seth would ruin the initial plan against Carly.
At the veto ceremony, Felicia stated that her decision was initially very difficult, but became easy after Kass' threat. For that reason alone, Felicia decided to use the veto on...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Carly.
Kass, Robynn and Trey all agreed that Felicia made an idiotic decision in saving the biggest threat in the game. In retaliation, Kass decided to potentially put the target on one of Felicia's allies, and thus decided to nominate...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Dominick.
Felicia & Seth ensured Dominick that their votes would be against Courtney no matter what. Felicia then said that she did not intend to get Dominick out, but rather to let Kass know that she can make her own decisions and that she can't be threatened.
With Carly being saved with the veto, will her closest ally Courtney be the one sent packing, or did Felicia's sudden move lead to Dominick's eviction? Who will become the next Head of Household? Plus, what is the second twist of the season? Find out in the next post!
Public vote: Comment below to evict either Courtney or Dominick. The nominee with the most public votes will receive an extra vote against him/her in the eviction.
---HoH Competition (continued)---
Within the first 20 minutes, not one person has fallen off, although Natalie & Tony might show signs of slipping.
No one has budged within the first hour. However, just after everyone passed that mark, Natalie decides to fall off. Natalie is the first person eliminated from the competition. Carly, Robynn, Seth and Trey are starting to slip off, while Dominick and Kass have not budged yet.
30 minutes later, Tony falls off and is the second person out. Not long after, Carly falls off while Trey is able to recover. 8 remain.
2 hours: Seth falls off from out of nowhere. Seth is out of the competition and 7 remain. Kass is the only one still holding steady. Everyone else is struggling.
2 hr 18 min: Trey cannot hold on any longer. Trey is the 5th person out. Meanwhile, Robynn falls off only seconds later while trying to adjust. 5 remain (Austin, Courtney, Dominick, Kass and Niki)
2 hr 31 min: After seeing the others not falling off yet, Dominick decides to throw the competition after the others promised him safety for this week. Dominick did not mention saving Seth or Felicia.
2 hr 45 min: Niki has had enough and falls off. Niki is out. Austin falls off 30 seconds later. It has come down between Courtney and Kass.
The pressure is on for the both of them. Courtney needs to ensure herself a spot in the jury as well as Carly. Carly needs Courtney to win HoH as she would be able to go after Trey and Robynn; she feels that this was long overdue. Likewise, Kass told herself multiple times that she wanted to make a big move against Carly & Courtney.
Courtney slips off.
Congratulations Kass! You are the new Head of Household!
With Kass winning her first HoH hours after surviving eviction and her desire to make a big move, how will her HoH change the game? Find out in the next post, which will be up later tonight.
