7 people left and I am in an alliance of 4 with Topaz, Kenny and Keesha. After Roddy's little outburst, Cody IM'd me and said Roddy threw us under the bus... but, he only said Cody and Alex started the me and Angie being tight rumour, how is that throwing me and Cody under the bus? The only thing he did which annoyed me was saying I was in another game with Cody which I'm not even in anymore, so hopefully nobody actually acts on that, because that would be stupid and really irritating. I am personally going for Alex right now though because he is after me and shady AF

This week has been pretty steady overall. Keesha won HOH and now POV, so it looks like Cody will finally be evicted. He is just too big of a threat in challenges to let him stay even one more round because he could easily go on HOH/POV streaks. Next up is Sabrina and Alex, and if there's an opportunity to maybe get Kesha out, I think I have to seriously consider it. Kenny and Topaz both agreed. Topaz brought up an end game about us four and said we can't beat Keesha, and I recall the same with Kenny - only with him, I brought up the fact that Keesha is a huge challenge threat right now. I don't think either of them want to take Keesha to the end. I'm going to take it one round at a time though and still aim for us four to be top 4, and if Sabrina wins an HOH in there somewhere, hope she puts up Keesha, that would be an ideal situation because it would be less messier.
That aside, Sabrina and Alex (after Cody this week, of course) are the next two as of now provided we keep HOH/POV out of both of their hands. Sabrina is the one we need to worry about, Alex has been pretty bad in challenges as well, and hopefully, he continues to suck because it's no secret he is coming after me. I did ask him what was up with him spreading those Angie and Me being tight words or rumours, or whatever you want to call them around and he said a group of people talked about it and that Angie said we were close, and fought for me. I don't know when she ever fought for me, seeing as I haven't been in danger so far, but Alex also said she urged him to align with me and Kenny. This is where it gets tricky. Alex is under the impression/was, that I am after him because I hate him, and he used those words. Hate is a pretty strong word, I don't hate anybody so I asked him where he got that from and he said Angie told him, that I told Angie that I think Alex is an asshole and rude, which I don't ever recall talking to Angie about. So he thought I hated him and want him out so he wants me out. I cleared it up, but it's too little too late now for both sides, he'll put me up in a heartbeat if he won, and I plan on doing the same.
I just don't get it though, doesn't he have some sense to figure out something was wrong with what Angie was saying? First she is pushing him to talk to me and Kenny so the four of us (Angie, Alex, Kenny, and me) could align, but at the same time, she tells him that I said I hate him? I mean come on, where does that ever make sense? I don't know, it sounded pretty silly to me. So I don't know, I just want him gone before he gets lucky and wins a competition or something and pushes me to jury.
On that note, I have to say, I'm really disappointed in my challenge performance this game. I've won ONE HND competition and that is it. I feel like I was doing better in the earlier competitions and am in the middle of a slump right now. At least earlier in the game I was finishing in the top 3/4, but lately I've just been horrible. Maybe it's just the live AIM challenges.
Now I feel bad, because Cody is IM'ing me. I wish he wasn't such a challenge beast, it would make things so much easier and I would happily vote Alex out, but I can't vote personally, I need to think logically and there's a part of me that feels like Cody has been trying to play me at times. I could be wrong but yeah.
Cody is the smart choice to evict right now. Topaz might not do it because I know they are close, but I'll talk to her and see where her head is at. Worst case scenario, me and Kenny vote Cody out and Keesha breaks the tie.

K, Alex is not helping things. He's going around threatening Keesha to use the veto on him, and being a huge jerk to Topaz, calling her grandma stupid and asking if she choked and died yet...
I mean, that is just downright despicable. This is a game, Topaz just told us of why she may not be around for a bit in her personal life and to use that and be a bitch to her? I can't even. He had to do literally NOTHING and he was safe this week. All he had to do was shut his mouth and sit there and he would be here another week. He's still safe, but this isn't making things easy. Meanwhile, you have Cody who is probably one of the nicest people I've talked to. Ugh. If I wasn't aligned with Keesha, Kenny and Topaz and we still had a long way to go in this game I would, no doubt, 100% have kept Cody.

Alex is telling me to vote him out. I mean I get his points, Keesha is a huge threat and would win easily if she made it, but so is Cody. Cody can take Keesha out, but so can Sabrina, or one of us if we step up in challenges. He's purposely (Alex) being a dick to everyone to vote him out and save Cody. He thinks he has me and Topaz down, just needs to be a bitch to one more person. I hope it's Sabrina so he can say the same stuff to her, and even with Cody gone, that seed will be in Sabrina's head and she would put up Keesha if she were to win HOH, so I'm egging him on, telling him to go for the clean sweep and get voted out 4-0, provoking him. Let's see what happens.

I vote to evict Cody.
Cody, I hate doing this and I wish I could keep you, but you are a huge threat in this game so as much as I would love to evict Alex, keeping him gives me better odds at getting to the end, and while you may make it easy to get Keesha out, I can't turn on her just yet because I've been with her for a long time. I'm really sorry. I thoroughly enjoyed our chats and pm exchanges.
The following message is for Alex if he is evicted:

I don't know what to do, ugh. Keeping Alex, we only have to really worry about Sabrina in HOH and her bond with Keesha, which was a cause for concern for both me and Kenny. We don't know where Keesha's true loyalty lies in that regard and she does need to go soon. Do we keep Cody, piss her off and hope he, or one of us wins HOH so we can try and get Keesha out, or backdoor her? We can do that regardless of who goes but Cody would just be another person we can rely on for that, Alex is too crazy to rely on. Sabrina let slip to Kenny how close her and Keesha are which is what started this, and frankly, I've had my suspicions as well, I just didn't want to believe it, but it makes sense now seeing as how noncommittal and quiet she's been when I have brought up getting Sabrina out in the past.
So I don't know. I still think keeping Cody and Keesha might not be the best idea, they are both huge threats, but they can't win every comp, but keeping Cody means Cody goes for Keesha and Sabrina while Keesha goes for Cody, so that's something to think about too.
Two choices, both risky. I better hope I make the right fucking one, my end game could depend on it.

Disregard my last vote. I am changing it.
I vote to evict ALEX.
You can use the same good bye messages from before though.

OK, so I should explain why I had a change of heart last minute and decided to evict Alex. After Keesha won Veto it was almost set in stone originally that Cody would go, I mean, he is a huge threat, he's well-liked and can go on a challenge run. Plus, he was sitting next to Alex who has been pretty bad in challenges. I know I'm not one to speak since I've sucked too, but I think it's safe to say Alex has been a lot worse. On a personal level, I definitely wanted to keep Cody, especially after Alex made it clear he was after me, and that was before his whole thing with Topaz which was just out of line. I know he was just trying to be "that guy", but it was still pretty low, and I felt horrible for Topaz because her and I have talked on a personal level of what we've both been through so I know how much it upset her as well. I wanted Alex out just for that alone.
But I also knew I had to think logically, and did I want to keep Keesha/Sabrina AND Cody in? I haven't been so good in challenges in comparison to them, neither has Topaz, which leaves Kenny who has come close. So initially, I thought, I have my set alliance with Keesha, Kenny and Topaz, let's get Cody out and shift our attention towards Sabrina and Alex after that. Even Topaz agreed about it. All I had to do was confirm with Kenny, and I had assumed he was close to Keesha so I might as well vote and just tell him. However, when we started talking it became clear he was worried about Keesha too, which for me was a relief, because I now know I have Kenny and Topaz 100% on my side and not hers, but I tried to steer him towards evicting Cody. He told me though, that Sabrina let slip to him how close she was to Keesha, which rightfully raised a red flag. So we had two options at that point. Evict Cody and try to sort out where Keesha/Sabrina lie later and hope one of us wins HOH (as in me, Kenny or Topaz), or keep Cody in the game, where we will have him put up Sabrina and Keesha in most cases and if Keesha stays, she'd still put up Cody against one of us (of course, she could be mad and just put us up for not evicting Cody as well, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it). So this possible bond between Keesha and Sabrina was something we had to think about.
Me and Kenny talked at lengths about it. He actually wanted to get Sabrina alongside me and him to evict Alex, but I thought that was kind of dumb. I mean, the only reason we would be evicting Alex is to keep Cody so he can go after Keesha and Sabrina, and if Sabrina is really tight with Keesha like he said, why would you try and tell her to evict Alex knowing that Keesha wants us to evict Cody? She'd go to Keesha and spill the beans right away. That did not make sense. So I told him not to vote until we talked again, and that we will both sleep on it. I then messaged Topaz to get her take on it.
So I get online a few hours before deadline and Topaz has changed her heart and wants to evict Alex for his actions, which I totally understand, and was glad I filled her in about what me and Kenny talked about. That's when she tells me, that Alex had told her Sabrina and Keesha have a final two. Now, Alex is not the most reliable of sources, but Topaz said he had told her this when they were on good terms a while ago and before "he went crazy" to quote her. So I asked Kenny and Topaz if Keesha offered a final two to either of them, because if she was intent on sticking with us four, she probably would have come to one of us by now. Nope, none of us. It somewhat reinforced it, although it doesn't prove it. So I told Topaz, and Kenny that let's do it. Let's evict Alex. Topaz told me she had voted to evict him earlier after reading my message from last night, so I changed mine and Kenny voted as well.
Keesha had also been quiet (a bit too much if you ask me) when I had brought up the idea of getting rid of Sabrina prior to this week, so that was always something that didn't sit well with me, she would always brush that aside almost. That, along with what Topaz said Alex told her, and what Kenny said Sabrina slipped up to him, and the fact that Sabrina and I finally chatted about the vote for once and she was steering me towards Cody for being such a threat like Keesha had been sealed it. I'll take my chances with Cody in the game. I fully trust Topaz and Kenny 100% and while the other three are in the house, I believe they'll continue to target each other (Sabrina/Keesha vs Cody) leaving us out of it, and in the majority vote so long as only one of us, if at all, is on the block. So now it will be time to get in touch with Cody and let him know Sabrina voted to evict him in case he wins HOH, but also try and do some damage control with Keesha (maybe Sabrina) by telling her how last minute this was. I don't think she'll believe us, but we don't plan on alerting her of our suspicions regarding her and Sabrina, so we'll see how that goes. She'll be mad, no doubt about it, but I am happy with this.
