Week 5

[Shane Meaney]

My week of HOH is over.

I think last week I got a little bit paranoid about everything. Power can mess with your mind and I need to make sure that if I'm ever in a position of power again I will keep a clear head.

Going into this HOH, I'm really rooting for Danielle to win. Wil winning wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. I'm just afraid that if Natalie wins veto, than Kara or Roddy might be targeted. I'm also a little worried about Hardy winning HOH. He might blame me for him being nominated. Hopefully Hardy trusts me though, its true that I had no choice but to nominate him, but I made sure he was sitting next to the person he wanted to sit next too.

Goal for the week...lay low.

[Shane Meaney]

Robert winning HOH makes me feel pretty safe. Hes been pretty straight forwards with his plans. He wants to put up Wil with Marcellas and then backdoor Natalie.

Even if I wanted Natalie to stay, theres no way I think she can survive this week unless she wins veto.

Now that we're in Jury mode, I need to start carefully planning how I can get myself to final 2 and win. Robert has proposed to make a final four with Myself Dani and Hardy. This seems like the best way for me to get to the end. I wish I could take Roddy that far though, I feel like he is a close ally of mine and more importantly I think I can beat him in the end.

Here is how I'm ranking everyone as far as my allies goes...

8. Natalie- As far as I'm concerned, shes totally alone in this game. I regret getting rid of Ian because I feel like I would have needed these two later in the game to get rid of Hardy. Since shes the number one target for Robert this week, she might try and throw some people under the bus. Hopefully I'm not on this list.

7. Wil- I think The Hots alliance died when Ian walked out the door. Wil has to know that there is some other alliance in this house. I think Wil is under control by Hardy. If I can get Wil out this week or the next, I think it'll make hardy weaker.

6. Marcellas- Very big social threat. I've gotten to know Marcellas a lot and have grown fond of him. I do think he is somewhat useless in this game because of his penalties, so i don't see him as a huge threat. All socialization right now is pretty much for his jury vote.

5. Hardy- Hardy and I are very close, but I think he is a huge threat in this game. I was worried that he would be evicted last week, even after ian was up. The fact that he stayed 6-0 without any of my help campaigning scares the shit out of me. He also gave no effort to winning the pov. Both these signs means that not only does he have influence, but he is confident of his influence. I know that if he gets to the end, he will win this game. This makes me hesitant on taking him all the way to final 4.

Kara- Trusted ally but not very communicative. I would be confident in taking her to final 5 and getting rid of her. She pretty much does whatever Robert, Myself, or Hardy tells her. Still consider a close ally though.

Robert- Says he'll take me to final 2. Gotta wonder how many people hes said this to though. I'm grown to trust him a little more and started working strategically with him. He might be down for getting rid of Hardy later, but I just have to make sure its at the right time. I believe I could beat him in the end.

Roddy- Very close connection but hes not too active. If he can set up and win some comps, I think he can make it pretty far. I'm pretty sure he trusts me the most and won't do anything to backstab me. My goal is to take Roddy and Dani to f3. Not only do i think both would take me but I think I could beat both.

Danielle- Still number one ally. She asks for my opinion on almost everything and follows my every order. Not much has changed between us.

[Shane Meaney]

Roddy wins pov which is very interesting for me. As long as Natalie is in this house, I know that all eyes are on her. If Roddy didnt use Veto, we could vote out Wil (which I think is a vote to save Hardy). With Wil gone and Natalie still running around, it would be easier for me to try and get Hardy out if I wanted too. Idk...could be interesting. Either natalie or wil is going home this week. Doesn't matter too much who it is honestly.

[Shane Meaney]

Roddy didn't use veto... that gives natalie one more week. This keeps everyone occupied on here and not me which is great. Going into the vote, I think the smart thing to do is vote out Wil. We haven't talked as much and even though hes a Hot...I can't trust Wil. I think he is super close to Hardy and the less allies Hardy has the less worried I'll be.

[Shane Meaney]

This next hoh is very important...
There is a rivalry in the house and its name is Hardy v Natalie
Hardy and Robert and Danielle have been trying for 3 WEEKS to get Natalie out, but she has been able to slip through the cracks. Natalie has also tried TWICE to evict Hardy but to no avail. I have done my best to keep both of these people and the game and to evict the ones around them. Not only does this weaken them but it keeps them focused on each other. This helps me stay under the radar.

If Hardy or Danielle win HOH, it might finally be the end of Natalie

but if Natalie wins HOH...it might be time to plot Hardy's eviction.

Time will tell.

Shane
You know keeping natalie might not be a bad idea
as long as shes here, hardy and robert will target her
and vice versa

Roddy
thats exactly what im thinking

Shane
if you or nat win veto
you could not use it
and we just vote out wil
RippedRoddy
thats what i was thinking but i was gonna ask you and dani about it

Shane
dani might be loyal to rob n hardy
i'll have to try and talk to her
we might have to just wait and see who wins veto

RippedRoddy
yeah
im kinda glad we're thinking on the same wavelength tho

Shane
same here



^convo i had with roddy before he won veto. Proves that I suggested the plan to roddy about keeping natalie in the game.
