Hello, I want to thank shawn for having me be a part of this journey, it was a fun experience. I also want to thank my housemates for also making this a fun experience. I do hope that theres no hard feelings after all that is happened.
So outside of a quick game trial for one of the suitman survivor games, this is the first Big Brother game I ever played on this site. and going into this game, I knew that I had to make strong bonds right off the bat or else there would have been trouble for me early on.
So the alliance was made between me, Lequisha, Patrick and Jake known as "The Envelopes" and then shadi, tico and JT came in and "Randomize Slaves" was born. those were two alliances I knew that would keep me in the game. But I also had to make the strong bonds with people outside of the alliances. I had people like Chandler and Ryan close to me as well as mari and lynette even if those didn't end so well. With those strong bonds here it would help me out if I was ever nominated for eviction which did happen 5 times throughout the season and stayed there 3 of those 5 times.
Yes, I know that I did not win one single HOH throughout the game, but it was partly my strategy, sometimes I would try to win, but other times I would try to not win so that I don't look like a physical beast and get sent packing early. I knew that if I can work my way throughout the game with strategy and social games then the HOH would not be needed. I needed to lay low at times and let the big players take each other out with their drama.
When the jury stage came around I knew that I needed to make sure that I have a way to the end. So I had my final 2 deals with people like Lequisha, Shadi, Mari and Ryan so that people would still want me around. Through with that kind of gameplay blood eventually had to get on my hands which happened notably in the final 4 when I had to win veto to secure my own safety and I had to evict someone I thought would have a strong chance of winning If they made it to the end which was mari.
Even if I have not won HOH, I have been playing throughout the game. being social with a good amount of people, voting in the majority every single time, actually voting the entire time, being around for every single challenge except for the second weeks veto and the final 4 hoh, and having to make sure certain people leave at times, i'll explain more on that later if you want to know. I didn't just lay around and sheep people, I played and made choices that would help me in the game short term and long term.
Im ready for your questions.
