Week 6 - The Turnaround

[Dominic Briones]

Well, I never expected to win that competition. But I'm sure as hell happy that I did. Now comes the hard part... figuring out what my BEST move is.

To start, I invited Dick, Rachel, and Parker into my HoH room. Everyone knows I'm with Dick, but I want Rachel and Parker to feel safe this week and I want to use that to perhaps gain some favor in their eyes. Lucky for me, I wasn't in a spot for the HoH where I had to show my cards and who I would have sent up. By the time I was sent up to face off and win, there were only 2 choices of people (Rachel and Russel), so nobody got to see who I would have ACTUALLY sent up if I had the chance.

My gut says that Karen should be my target this week. I think she's working with Rachel, and she likely has Drew in her back pocket. Plus, I haven't said shit to Karen, so I could see her easily nominating me if she wins HoH. I am curious to see what suggestions Rachel and Parker throw at me. I made sure to tell Dick to play nice in the HoH room and not give up too much information that could be used against us. We are also planning on trying to rope in Cassandra with our "side" of the house.


I could be totally wrong in my assumptions and how I plan to proceed, but it's a start. I will have to prowl AIM tonight to try to get some information from players and see if I actually do have a good feel for the way things are going.

For now though, my gut says to nominate Karen and Josh and then go from there, but things could change...

Lori is still a big threat in my opinion, but I need her for now.

OMG my new avatar is gross. I prefer the pixelated.

Well, what a week.

Karen left. I guess that's good. It was either her or Rachel that I wanted to take out. Because I now feel like I had a successful week in taking out a threat. While I was leaning toward a Rachel backdoor, I can't say that I'm upset that I didn't have to really get my hands dirty. Everyone seems happy to see Karen leave, which is good. Plus, now if Rachel wins HoH, she MIGHT not come after me if she thinks I'm cool with her. I am being sure to plant seeds with Parker, by explicitly stating that he RACHEL and Dick are safe with me. I want him to take that news to Rachel or even other ppl. I don't care if it gets spread out there if it means Rachel thinks I'm not a threat to her.

Plus, this week provided me with an official alliance.... the OUTSIDERS. I dig it.

Successful HoH week? I guess as successful as you can get when someone quits. HoH should be interesting next week. I hope an ally wins!!!!
