Episode 3: Red Queen, Slowly Rising!

[Rachel Reilly]

So, ~THANK GOD. Sharon’s no longer in this game and I couldn’t be any happier. Her actions after the neato competition just went to show how little I could trust her later on in the game. She spilled everything when she knew she was in danger. She’s not someone anyone should have aligned with. Terribly ally. Terrible liar. Terrible player. ~BYE BEYOTCH. With Sharon up and out, that left anticipation for the following Head of Household competition. Everyone wanted to get their hands on the HOH key, especially me. Ever since finding out about the way of getting into the basement, I didn’t want anyone else getting in before me. The competition ended up being a past competition in the series: Chelsbot’s Feud. It’s exactly like the Family Feud you know and love, and we were split up into two teams. We had to guess which answer were on the board and if you got the highest answer, then your team got control of the board. I had Michele, Memphis, and Natalie on my team, so we were pretty fierce. I knew that we’d win for sure because all 4 of us were extremely social and smart. The other team consisted of like, Enzo, Marvin, etc. Enzo? I love him, but he’s not the brightest bulb in the box. And Marvin? Take a look at his track record in competitions in this game. Not too good. Bottom line: my team’s opposition in this game was easy to beat. After the first part of the game ended, and my team won 23-9, I believe, it was time to play Fast Money, and all of us on my team were playing individually. Memphis and I racked up the most points, but at the end, I lost by 2 and Memphis garnered the victory. So disappointing, right? I felt like kicking myself repeatedly because I was so close to getting the HOH.

With Memphis winning this Head of Household, it means that he’ll be getting into the basement, but it also might mean I’ll be safe from nominations this week. He did say in the chat room that we were in, that everyone on his team wouldn’t be nominated if he won, and he did, so? Looks like I might survive another week in this house! However, not only that, but that Britney/Justin/Memphis alliance I’m also in has proved to be beneficial these past two rounds. I think that while being in this alliance, I just might last a little longer in this game than I could have without it? Just a guess. But not only that, the alliance might also make Justin second-think using the Coup on me and sending me up on the block if it were ever the case. I’m just anxious to see if Memphis honors the alliance and the deal he made during the competition. Also, this is my opportunity to see how much pull I have with him when it comes to suggestions with nominations. I know that when and if I’m asked, I’l be throwing April under the bus left and right. The girl doesn’t need to be in this game anymore because I don’t want her here. Her going around and having my name in her mouth, telling people that I control other people’s votes is a NO NO and she’s gonna’ pay the price for that little mistake. Believe me. Along with my suggestion for April to go up, will be Eric. I don’t talk to Eric enough to want to keep him around. Sure, he’s nice, he’s a sweetheart, but when it comes down to the competitive aspect of the game, I don’t think he’d have my back at all. I actually think he’d nominate me and evict me if he had the chance. So fans, ~RAISE YOUR TEQUILA SHOT GLASSES and let’s make a toast to hopefully seeing atleast one of them up!

When it came down to the moment we had all been waiting for, all of the nerves actually set in. I really wanted both April to go up. I mean, April has been nothing but a little snake, and it’s been growing more and more apparent as the game progresses just how shady she can really be. I don’t trust that girl as far as I can throw her. When Memphis finished pulling all the keys, it was Marvin and Eric nominated for eviction. MARVIN? Really!? Like, are you kidding me right now? Why the hell was Marvin cast up onto the block. That made absolutely no sense to me whatsoever. Marvin has hardly proved to be anything close to a threat in this game, going out first in almost every competition and then you have April who clearly has no problem throwing people’s names around for no apparent reason whatsoever. Please. Not only that but Memphis has also gave the bomb to Marvin too. I don’t know what the story is between these two but obviously Memphis can’t stand Marvin for whatever reason. I feel a little torn at the moment because I’m close with Marvin on a certain level and I actually enjoy his company in this game, and if he were to go right now, that would be me losing an ally possibly, and I don’t really want that to happen. However, now that I think about it more and more, Enzo probably had some pull in Memphis’ decision, because I know all about that stupid Dingo alliance they have together, and Enzo has been wanting Marvin out for some time. It’s honestly lame that Memphis can’t think for himself if that’s the case, however, what really has me interested is the fact that April didn’t make her way up onto the block. Something’s going on right now and you best believe I’m going to get to the bottom of it, and fast.

This week’s Power of Veto Competition ended up being none other than a classic little game called Go Fish! My first thought was .. ~OMG! I love this game! I knew that if I could just focus and concentrate, that I’d have this challenge under wraps for sure. There was no stopping me. The goal of the challenge was to unscramble war-related words and then that word would unlock the forum it was posted on, and in the forums were fish with little number values on them, and those values represented the amount of points you’d get if you were the first to claim that fish. But there was a limit to how many fish you could catch. The rule was that you could only claim three, so you had to snatch fish when you thought it was the only high one you could find. But not only that! Some forums had prizes in them too instead of fish! So if you got one with a prize, you could only get two fish after that, and if you got two prizes, then you could only get one fish, etc. was so amped up, however, that I totally blew everything. I managed to get myself disqualified from the competition which was slightly embarrassing. I didn’t know that you could only claim three fish, but instead this ~RED HEADED HURRICANE flew through every forum and just claimed tons of a fish. I was super quick in unscrambling all the words and getting into the forums, but I totally FUCKED up. Ugh! I could have totally won that competition had I read the directions and pumped my brakes. It was NOT one of my most shining moments, it was actually really vile. But then you had freaking players like Annie getting prizes like being able to nullify votes and having immunity next week, and also players like freaking April having bomb immunity for the whole game. Ugh. It just completely made me want to ~VOM all over the place. I still can't get over the fact I got disqualified. Way to go, Rachel.

Michele ended up winning the Veto which I guess was fine. Since it doesn’t seem like she has any ties with either Marvin or Eric I totally expect for the nominations to remain as is. It’s a really big shame, though. As of right now, I really want to keep Marvin in this game because I feel like he would personally help me much more in the future than the likes of Eric. I mean, Eric is nice and all .. but we’re not close, we hardly talk, and he kind of sucks at competitions so it’s not like his ass would be any help to me in the long run, anyways. I don’t know what the hell is going on right now, especially since April didn’t go up. I mean, the ~BEYOTCH now has bomb immunity for the rest of the game. Like, seriously? Are you kidding me right now? Then again, this could work in my favor in trying to get her up in future rounds. Because, hey. Now that she has this supposed bomb pass, it’s more of an incentive to get her ass up and out of this game, and I’m going to use that as leverage for the future HOH’s and try to get her nominated. It finally came down to Michele’s decision for the Veto. As I expected, Michele didn’t use the Veto and left nominations the same. I mean, I knew it was coming. It’s like, what? Round 3? Why would she risk everything just to remove one of the nominations. From what I’ve heard, the only person who really gave her some trouble by campaigning was Eric. It was obvious that he was dying to stay in the game, but for what reason? He hardly ever does crap. It really irk my nerves when players are so pathetic and they get nominated, and then all of a sudden they have a freaking personality and start playing the game. I’m sensing major Holly flashbacks right now .. and believe me, it's not a good thing.

So now it’s time to think about how I’m going to vote this week. Enzo is really pushing for Marvin to leave the game, but seriously? Why? Honestly, I feel like Enzo is ~TOTALLY jealous of how much Marvin and I flirt with one another. It’s kind of crazy. I mean, Marvin is no threat at all. When Marvin and I talked after nominations, I had kind of promised him that he had a vote to stay from me in whatever happened. I meant it too. I want Marvin to stay in the game and I told him to work for those votes, but no matter what happened, he’d have a vote from me. Now that everything is said and done and the nominations are staying intact, I’m getting word that everyone is pretty much voting to evict Marvin from the game. ~WHAT THE HELL. Seriously? Eric needs to go, this is so lame. When I went to talk to Enzo, Enzo was flipping shits because I was voting to keep Marvin even though I knew he was going. Um, seriously Enzo? When I make a promise to vote to keep someone, I keep the promise no matter what. And then Enzo just sat there and told me that Marvin said he didn’t even care and that he didn’t mind if he left the game. After hearing all of this from Enzo, I decided to go talk to Marvin about everything that was going down with the vote. Marvin was basically his normal, sarcastic self saying that he knew he was going, blah, blah. I asked him if he wanted atleast a sympathy vote and he said he didn’t care. You know what? Fine. I don’t care either then. In that case, you can fully expect me to vote you out. Way to fight for your life in this game, Marvin. I don’t think I’ve honestly met anyone who’s ever given up that easily, let alone someone who has no drive to try and save themselves. He proved himself to be totally ~WORTHLESS and I'm sorry that I ever wasted my time in wanting him to stay and continue playing.
