BEHOLD THE NOMINEE!!
I obviously expected this, since Ivette and I really don't talk, BUT i never expected this explanation:
I'm nominating you, Sam, because if I don't nominate you, I fear nobody ever will. You were immune and without a partner for almost the entire game, and you've done a masterful job since then of staying off everybody's radar. I'm not even remotely sure where the hell you stand. You're easily playing the best game here, so you'll need to win veto and make an enemy or two if you want to stay off the block.
Makes sense no one would nominate me. I've been very low key this game for a reason. The less drama you create, the more under the radar you will become, and the targets immediately go to someone else...until this round.
So yeah my strategy this entire game has been to remain under the radar, avoid any conflicts, and just play it cool, kind of like I'm invisible. It has worked considering strong characters like Boogie, Gary & Janelle have been evicted.
Now I don't know who Ivette is working with, but she makes a pretty good point when she says she doesn't know where I stand, I'm kind of like the wild card, for her of course. The agreements I have are with Will & Eric right now individually, that us guys need to stick together, and get rid of one of the girls, possibly being Elissa. From the ladies' side, Chima and I we talk about strategy a lot (through PM) and about the votes, and Gina is super awesome and we give each other some encouragement before HoHs and nominations lol.

I just finished the POV competition. That was HARD hahah but it was fun, the adrenaline definitely kicked in. I think I got all right, and in a good time considering that stupid 15 second wait lol I really hope I win this veto...I need to WIN something damm it. If I don't, I hate to say it, but I might be evicted

DAMM IT! I was sooo **** close to winning that POV. I mixed Boogie & Gary's arts and that cost me the competition, even though I had the shortest amount of time.
Now that Chima is the Veto Holder, there's no doubt there's a good chance she uses it on Eric, her partner. I have to convince her to use it on me AND ensuring that Eric stays in the game. Meaning, I have to convince Chima that if she uses it on me, and either Helen, Elissa, Will or Gina go up (hopefully either Helen or Elissa), I can secure the votes to keep Eric. I already promised Eric if I was off the block I wouldn't vote him out, + Chima's vote, and I can bring either Will or Gina depending if they're not nominated, and secure their stay and gain Eric/Chima's trust even more. I know it's gonna take a miracle for Chima to use the veto on me, but I at least have to try.
EDIT = Actually scratch the entire thing. Now that I think about it, it would be stupid of Chima to use the veto on me, cause right now the whole thing is to get rid of the couples, so if she uses it on me, the rest of the house will want Eric home to get rid of that couple. So, my strategy is to ensure that I have the votes to stay one more round, and I think I do. I need 3 votes to stay, so I need Eric/Chima/Gina on my side, and probably Will too. There's no way Elissa's on my side, we barely even say "Hi" to each other

So I just found out from Will that he can't vote this round. *DEAD* My only hope is for Helen to be nominated, and have 3 votes to stay. I already have Eric's, I need to get Chima's and either Helen/Gina depending on who gets nominated. There's no way Elissa will vote to keep me, she and Ivette apparently are like together. So four people will vote, I need 3 votes stay. If there's a tie, Im screwed cause Ivette will evict me. I mean it was pretty clear in her explanations in the Nomination Ceremony that I was the main target.

WOAH! Gina just threw me a giant curveball. So I was talking to her, trying to get her vote to stay, and she starts ranting about how I told her she could count on me and she trusted me 100% but then I lied to her and voted to keep Boogie (which is all true) but I mean, Boogie was gonna go either way, and I had promised Boogie that i was gonna vote to keep him despite the fact he was gonna go.
I'm not upset that Gina told me she was mad or something, like I would've expected it. I'm pissed off because....how many rounds ago was this vote? Like almost FOUR rounds ago? Say 3 weeks. Come on! It's a different game right now, I never expected Gary or Janelle to go before me, or Sallie to disappear, things happen.
What, she doesn't think I was upset when people lied to my face about the Nick vote? I felt like an outsider, and I was pissed off, but what do I win putting out my frustrations? Nothing, I only make more enemies. Besides I don't have time to be mad or upset at anyone, this is a game!
Gina says she's gonna talk to Eric, Chima & Elissa about how they're gonna vote. I have Eric & Chima's votes to stay, but I'm praying Gina has like a MAJOR change of heart and keeps me, otherwise it's a tie, and I'm going.

Conversation with Will Will Kirby: (7:05:30 PM) How do you feel your chances are with Helen nominated? Will Kirby: (8:29:31 PM) PLEASE make sure Gina is keeping you. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:29:47 PM) I'm trying! Big time Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:29:52 PM) Eric and Chima are also gonna talk to her Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:29:57 PM) but she's kind of upset with me Will Kirby: (8:30:07 PM) ugh nooo why? Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:30:21 PM) she's upset because the round that boogie was evicted, I voted to keep Boogie Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:30:28 PM) and I told her I was gonna vote for Janelle Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:30:35 PM) to keep Janelle* Will Kirby: (8:30:37 PM) omg that was forever ago Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:30:51 PM) that's what I thought! haha like that was almost 4 rounds ago, why is this an issue? Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:31:09 PM) I <3 Gina, but it really just threw me off Will Kirby: (8:31:36 PM) please make up with her, if she evicts you then you are done. :/ Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:32:26 PM) I did. I apologized, she wanted to like set the record straight, and we did kind of "made up" Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:32:36 PM) she said she wanted to talk to everyone how they were gonna vote Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:33:05 PM) I know Chima/Eric are voting to keep me, Elissa's keeping Helen, you can't vote which sucks Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (8:33:08 PM) so it all comes down to her Will Kirby: (8:33:23 PM) I'm praying that Helen leaves.

Convo with Eric Eric Stein: (5:27:20 PM) Why did Ivette put Helen up? Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (5:29:54 PM) I have noo idea, it's a little suspicious Eric Stein: (5:38:43 PM) I agree. I'm trying to see where Chima and Gina's head is at Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (5:38:56 PM) Gina's upset at me Eric Stein: (5:39:12 PM) Really? Why? Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (5:40:28 PM) apparently that I lied to her about the vote between Janelle/Boogie Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (5:40:42 PM) which I mean, I did lie to her, but I didn't think she would be that upset Eric Stein: (5:42:46 PM) Right now she makes it seem like you want to help her. Are you and Gina close? Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (5:43:19 PM) we are, well we were after that Boogie vote apparently Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (5:43:33 PM) she says she wants to see how everyone else will vote Eric Stein: (5:45:02 PM) I think Chima wants to keep you over Helen FOR SURE. But the tie will be bad, so I want Gina to side Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (5:46:56 PM) I hope Gina can side with us, otherwise I'm going home Eric Stein: (5:55:05 PM) I know. I do not want to tie.... That would be awful Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (5:55:32 PM) she said you two already talked, but she wants to talk to Chima Eric Stein: (5:56:45 PM) Yeah, I got to talk to Chima too Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (5:57:30 PM) what did she say? Eric Stein signed off at 6:00 PM. Eric Stein is offline Eric Stein signed on at 6:00 PM. Eric Stein: (6:08:19 PM) China? Or Gina? Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (6:08:36 PM) ..umm whoever you talked to haha Eric Stein: (6:09:21 PM) Gina wants to just make sure we are all on the same page is what she made it sound like Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (6:34:40 PM) yeah that's what she told me too. So I guess it's a lot of talking and waiting then for me lol |

Did I just get Elissa's vote to stay? So I tried to have a convo with her, which led to her "cutting the BS, being upset I didn't campaign to her, and other stuff". Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:27:10 AM) hi Elissa Elissa Slater: (11:27:20 AM) Hello Sam! Elissa Slater: (11:27:27 AM) How are you? Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:27:53 AM) i'm doing good, watching "Wendy Williams" hot topics lol Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:27:55 AM) how bout you? Elissa Slater: (11:29:01 AM) Not much, just watching Alphas. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:29:50 AM) oo I remember watching that show once, looked interesting Elissa Slater: (11:30:05 AM) I'm only on the first episode. Elissa Slater: (11:30:08 AM) So far so good. Elissa Slater: (11:30:23 AM) Alright, cut the bullshit. Elissa Slater: (11:30:32 AM) Why are you guys campaigning to Gina but not me? Elissa Slater: (11:30:35 AM) I'm offended. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:31:03 AM) ok first of all, it's not bullshit, I always ask everyone how their day's going Elissa Slater: (11:31:21 AM) No, it's definitely bullshit. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:31:38 AM) and 2, I didn't campaign to you because you were Helen's original partner, and you were kinda gunning for me weeks ago Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:31:57 AM) and you were kinda mean Elissa Slater: (11:32:35 AM) Alright, Buble. <----one of my characters from another proboards game Elissa Slater: (11:32:50 AM) Tedder whatever Elissa Slater: (11:32:56 AM) singers whatever the fuck Elissa Slater: (11:33:14 AM) You guys should have asked me. Elissa Slater: (11:33:23 AM) I don't even care about Helen. Elissa Slater: (11:33:31 AM) She's not my partner and I'm glad. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:35:00 AM) listen, I know we didn't start in the right direction especially after that Nick vote weeks ago, but I'm all about making amends. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:35:20 AM) i'm not saying you and i need to like each other Elissa Slater: (11:35:25 AM) Clearly not since your foursome didn't even bother to recruit me. Elissa Slater: (11:36:53 AM) It's whatever. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:36:53 AM) there's no foursome as far as I'm concerned. Yes I have people's back but I don't have an alliance or deal with anyone Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:37:00 AM) as far as i'm concerned I'm on my own Elissa Slater: (11:37:09 AM) Helen leaves tonight and then I win HoH and nominate two of your group. Elissa Slater: (11:37:16 AM) no harm no foul. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:37:44 AM) if Helen leaves tonight, great. If you win Hoh, kudos to you Elissa Slater: (11:39:12 AM) I will win HoH. Elissa Slater: (11:39:18 AM) I have to or I go home. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:40:01 AM) why, because you're not in the "foursome"? Elissa Slater: (11:40:18 AM) Don't treat me like I'm stupid. Elissa Slater: (11:40:26 AM) I know about you, Will, and Chimeric. Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:41:04 AM) whatever Sam Wallace/Ryan T.: (11:41:21 AM) look i hope I have your vote to stay, cause i know you can't stand Helen and she hates you too. Elissa Slater: (11:41:37 AM) yep |

I pleaded my case to Gina & Elissa (sort of), and Chima & Eric told me their keeping me, so if there's no shenanigans, I must have all 4 votes to stay. Now it's just waiting........
