Diary Room #7

[Rhian Sugden]

I feel like my claws are finally starting to dig into the game now. It took a little bit because of how large the cast is, but I feel like I'm starting to get more comfortable; obviously not too comfortable, because you should never feel at home in the Big Brother house. However, with James leaving last week in a 10 to 1 vote? It's glorious. I got what I wanted at the end of the day, and I'm happy about it. Next on the agenda? Make sure David gets the hell out of this house. He was all, "I'm not after you if I stay, you're not one of my targets," yet it's been going around the house again that he wants to take out Dixie and I, and our "army". Okay, David. Way to be completely transparent there.

Now we have the Big Brother Auction! Yes! This is perfect. Can I just say that trying to get Kristen, GM, Dixie, Sam and etc. all back on the same page was well worth it? If that hadn't been done, we wouldn't have had a chance in this auction. However, with fences mended and bridges rebuilt, we have a plethora of money to transfer and use between all of us. It's perfect. I knew it was going to be crucial to try and rectify the crappy situation from that horrible Partner's Week. Now that we're all now on the same page, I made a group chat for the five of us to work on the auction, so we could map out our moves and also keep each other updated on who we could acquire money from as we progressed.

All of last night, Ryan was just self-destructing. I really don't know the depth of his issue, but he is 100% against Dixie, when before all of this, she probably wouldn't have even thought of nominating him. He's shot himself in the foot the past two weeks. He's going to Frank, Kristen, me, and just telling everyone he wants to jack up the HOH price to expose Dixie's allies and make her waste her money. Idiot. And guess what? All of those people sold him out. Meanwhile, you have David being an absolute moron and giving his money over to resident "sweetheart", Kristen, when we mapped out our plan of attack in order to take his money and embezzle it. The whole thing really felt so evil, but now we have GM collecting boxes and Dixie and I claiming power for the week. I kinda' love it.

Just saying. Mystery Incorporated holla's for yo' dolla's.

I wanted to go through each of the remaining housemates and just give a general idea of how I feel about each of them and where I stand with them.

David: To put it bluntly, I don't like him. Before I nominated him, we were always on okay terms. We had decent conversations, but I could never trust him. He always felt insincere, so that's why I never really put it out there that I wanted to work with him and that's why nothing ever materialized in the form of an alliance. I genuinely did nominate him because he was a vote eliminated to keep James and he was close with him. That was it. Of 'course, when you nominate someone, it sort of rocks the relationship and it's a very slim chance of said relationship ever really recovering. I'd feel safer if he left, because it's been said he's after Dixie and myself; I've seen the logs and conversations.

Dixie: This one is really difficult for me. As many of you know, Dixie and I rather close outside this game. I personally wouldn't ever dream of nominating her and sending her out myself; I don't ever see myself doing it. However, playing with her in the past, I know Dixie's sneaky. She will use her allies to take out mine, and those allies would be GinaMarie and Estelle. I can't have that. There will be a time in this game where I'll have to either use GM or Estelle to remove Dixie or her closest allies, just so Dixie's power can lessen. When that time comes, it's all about game and me trying to better my shot.

Dominic: Dominic is mainly absent in this game. He is never, ever online. I mean .. ever. He only uses the PM feature. He's told me that he doesn't like to come online because he can't stand the cast. I know he has some problems with Talla at the moment, personal ones, so I'm sure it has alot to do with that. Despite this, Dominic is a powerhouse in the competitions. The week where Dixie and GM had their falling out, I bonded with Dominic and we both agreed we should sort of look out for one another in some aspects, so an alliance was formed between us. I don't rank this alliance high in importance, but I'd like to have Dominic on my side to use should he win any nominating power.

Estelle: I love her! I've never had a problem with she or GM and that's why I think we'll be great long term. We bonded heavily during the time Andrew was in the house because of Andrew's Angels, and it has stuck even with Andrew leaving us. Estelle is someone who, regardless of being close with Dixie outside the game, will go after Dixie. Which is fine, because Dixie would do the same to her. However, I'm not telling either of them about that because I don't want to end up being any sort of collateral in their feud. They're big girls and they can handle it themselves. I trust Estelle and I feel like she trusts me too; so, love!

Frank: Hm. Another tough one. Frank and I talk briefly, usually everyday. Frank is with GinaMarie and I trust that GinaMarie could potentially keep him in line if she needed to. However, Frank has been shooting red flags in my eyes the past couple of days. I was finding out information from other people that Frank was privy too .. but that he neglected to share with GM. That just shows me that Frank isn't 100% embedded into whatever thing he has going with GinaMarie and that kind of worries me. I also have heard that Frank has been on good terms with like James, David, etc, basically my targets .. so yeah. It's a very tricky situation, but as of right now, I'd say Frank and I are alright.

GinaMarie: Um, self-explanatory? Love, love, love. I would say that GinaMarie is my closest ally in this game, just pulling ahead of Dixie by a few spaces. I met GinaMarie in this series and it's a friendship I never want to see dissolve. The only problem with GM is that while I know she's trying her hardest to play nice with Dixie, Sam, and Kristen, I know that's not who she wants to see around long term. I'm just worried because I don't want her to want to strike too soon because I feel like we have a good thing going that could buy us a few rounds. We do see eye to eye though and we'll always find a common ground.

Helen: She's not even playing the game, to be honest. Helen is an actual inactive. I feel bad saying that because of what happened with her dog, but she is. She has alot going on her real life, so I just don't understand why she decided to play. She was absent during the start because of work, she then went to Vegas, and now she's just consumed with her personal life and doesn't ever seem to have time to put aside for the game. But when she does come on? Wildcard. Pure wildcard. She'll throw her vote out to everyone and promise it, but then let a whole group down in the process when she lies to them. In a sense, that makes her dangerous. No real connection between either of us too, which is why I wouldn't mind seeing her leave anytime soon. I'd welcome it.

Kristen: She really is a sweetheart. She's probably the biggest sweetheart in this series. But don't let that fool you! I know I haven't. Kristen knows what she wants and she goes for it. But, she is one of the more reserved players. She has this sort of innocence about her and in a game like this she could be eaten alive. It's been doing her well enough so far, especially since she's close with Dixie and Dixie's sort of acting like a shield for her. Kristen is someone I could see winning because she doesn't really have any issues with anyone. I'd like to see her go far, but I don't want her near the finale at all. Whatsoever.

Ryan: Dumbass. I liked Ryan, well, I still like him .. but he's just a moron. I don't know what's going on with him in this game. He's been not he verge of self-destructing the past two weeks, so gung-ho about getting Dixie out. Cool your jets, okay? It's just silly to me because Dixie would not have nominated him at all. I understand his desire in wanting Dixie to go, because she is a force, but he's gone about it all wrong. He's literally .. I'm not even kidding .. gone to basically all her closest allies and trashed her in some respect. So now, Dixie knows and he's kind of screwed should Dixie want to teach him a lesson. Ryan's problem is that he's too eager and he just needs to simmer down. I am kind of working with him, but not really, in the sense that if he left, it wouldn't matter.

Sam: I'm really surprised that I'm even playing this game with Sam. When I saw Sam was playing this season I was annoyed and wanted him to go just as soon as Ed. However, Sam has proven to be a beneficial ally for the time being. He's a loyal vote. I don't find him shady this time around because I can't see him working with the likes of David, Dominic, Frank, etc. and can trust that he's more on my side of things being tied to Kristen. Do I want to see Sam go far? Probably not, but I'm content with him at the moment and we banter and have fun most of the time, and that's always nice to have in the house. I kinda' trust him. GinaMarie doesn't. That is what'll be a problem down the line.

Shane: He's in the same boat as Helen, but he comes around more. Shane's game is pretty transparent to me, and it's just that he wants to be friends with everyone. He wants to be relatable and be on everyone's good side. The problem with this is, he's already been labeled the "ultimate pawn" and he'll be hitting that block more times than anyone else I'd reckon. Shane and my relationship is decent. We do have an alliance of sorts. He's a vote I want to count on and feel like I could count on, but I know his role is just trying to appease the right person, so he could sway wherever his little heart desires. I don't think he'd nominate me? But you can never know for sure. He's a question mark.

Talla: Meh. I "made up" with Talla mid-way through my Head of Household reign and went as far enough as convincing Sam to take her down so we could just send James home. That ultimately saved Talla, because there was a slight chance she wouldn't be here right now. My peeve with her is that she doesn't give direct answers and likes to play games. I can't deal with that and won't stand for it when the game gets into high-stake situations. If I could have my way, she'd be gone soon because she's not someone I want to deal with for the long duration of the game. Talla is only tolerable in very, very small doses.

As soon as Dixie and I officially got our powers for the week, panic erupted. That really annoys me. All of a sudden, Dixie and Kristen are like, "oh my god, maybe we should put Dominic up instead of Ryan?" I'm like, no? Are you stupid? Putting Dominic up is dangerous for Dixie, because that's someone who is strong at competitions. I told them both that if Dominic is not the target, then do not put him on the block, because he will be coming after her guns blazing at that point, which I think he already is, but it'd be even stronger. Putting Ryan up is logical for Dixie because he was a dumbass going around and basically telling all her allies he was trying to expose her relationships with others.

Before that, I was having a conversation with Dominic, and we were talking about him being for safe the week because I had been under the impression that David and Ryan were 100% going up. I had even promised to use my Veto on him because I knew he wasn't going up. So then .. I had Dixie contemplating sticking Dominic up? I'd have to break my word to Dominic about using the Veto, so I was starting to silently freak out .. trying to use whatever I could to back Dixie off the verge of nominating Dominic as the pawn. Dixie did an alliance vote between the members in Mystery Inc. Of 'course GinaMarie and I sided on pawning Ryan, but Sam and Kristen sided together on pawning Dominic. Shocker! That made Dixie the tiebreaker and deciding vote.

Thank god, though. It didn't matter at the end of the day. I knew beforehand what Dominic's prize was, because we were talking. I didn't share it beforehand with Mystery Inc. I let them find out when everyone else did. As soon as I found out from Dominic what his prize was, I realized .. okay, Dominic trusts me. I think he really does, so I'm going to put good faith in that and try and see if we can actually work together. I spoke to Ryan about not using Veto on him either and told him I have been looking out for him, that I've tried many times to stop him from mouthing off to people about wanting Dixie out. I told him this is the repercussions of that, but I'm still with him and want to work with him and he said he appreciated what I've done for him in this game. I think he's sincere.

The plan is David is going. Bye. Next week is probably Survivor Week because of Dominic opening Britney's Box. GinaMarie's unknown box is probably an Immunity Necklace? Mystery Inc. wants to boot Dominic, but GM and I aren't with that and we might side with Estelle, Ryan, and Dom to boot out someone else that we want to see go, maybe like Talla. Not too sure yet. We'll see!
