Lies, lies and more lies
So the last round ended with Alex evicted and Keesha pissed off because we didn't evict Cody. She posted an image in the eviction ceremony thread saying we are all stupid for evicting Alex. Obviously she knew that if Cody survived then he would target her and also Sabrina which is the exact reason I voted to evict Alex. I wouldn't have been Cody's target yet Alex said he was going to target me so it was a no brainier for me! Also, as much as I love Keesha, I knew she would need to go sooner rather than later because she would be pretty impossible to beat at the end which was even more evident when Alex said he was going to vote for her if she made the F2.
At the F6 HoH Sabrina initially won which weren't the best news but it also weren't the worst. I messaged her to plead my case as I normally do and she told me I weren't her target and she weren't going to nominate me. But the results were wrong and Cody actually won which was amazing news!! Me, Kaitlin and Kenny were jumping for joy in our group thread
it seemed to work perfectly because that is what we planned for..to send Alex home and then if Cody won he would nominate Sabrina and Keesha which is exactly what happened. It was really at this point where we did kinda turn our back on Keesha and made a F3 deal of myself, Kenny and Kaitlin. We all knew she was going to be so hard to beat at the end! The good thing about this too is that I genuinely believe that the 3 of us intend on sticking to it. Not so much out of loyalty (well a bit) but more out of the fact that we are all in agreement that Keesha, Cody and Sabrina would probably beat all of us at the end because they're seen as comp beasts and the 3 of us aren't exactly good at them!
So before the veto comp happened I received the following message from Sabrina;
To which I replied, very enthusiastically and lying my arse off;
I exaggerate a lot about how much it bothers me about not winning challenges and now much I want people to see me as a competitor when in actual fact, I'm not really bothered at this stage. Now obviously my response to Sabrina was very over the top and was bullshit but I knew that at the end of this round then either her or Keesha would still be around so if she thinks I have nobody in this game and that I would have took her down from the block and want to take her to the end, then she's gonna be more inclined to keep me in the game should she win the next HoH over the others! Yeah I'm lying but you've got to plan a couple of steps ahead in this game otherwise you could be out the door as quick as Ronnie!
Keesha messaged me with the following around the same time too;
Now that is what I mean about planning ahead. Kenny and Kaitlin who were supposed to be aligned with Keesha along with myself, they didn't reach out to her at all this week and lied about their vote. I personally think it's quite stupid because she is either gonna be on jury or she could have survived this week. That's the reason I told Keesha I was voting Alex which she said she appreciated my honesty..that's only gonna look better for me in her eyes than the other 2. Now bearing in mind that the veto comp hadn't taken place at this point so Keesha still had a good chance of winning and surviving this round, I replied to her above message with the following;
Again this is more lies and very dramatic again but if Keesha had own veto then I would be the person in the game that she would trust the most which would have been great for me! She didn't win which is why this message to her isn't the best one but I don't regret it because I was covering all my bases.
So Sabrina won veto once again and saved herself! As soon as that happened, myself, Kaitlin and Kenny knew that we would be sending Keesha home but also knew that one of us would end up on the block. It didn't really matter who because we controlled the vote anyway but one of us would be going up and although we had the numbers I still didn't want that person to be me. So I messaged Cody about it and he said it sucked that he had to nominate somebody else but I just wanted to assure him that I would be evicting Keesha this round who was his target, so basically telling him that I was a guaranteed vote to evict Keesha so to not put me up as the replacement nominee basically! We've been aligned since the beginning so I don't think he would have anyway but I don't like leaving things to chance. So Cody nominated Kenny so it's myself, Sabrina and Kaitlin who will be voting this round. Sabrina will be evicting Kenny no doubt but that doesn't matter anyway because me and Kaitlin control the vote and we will be evicting Keesha!
I didn't want to lie to Keesha or mislead her about my vote so I have already told her I would be evicting her;
I know she will be pissed off with me and annoyed but I don't think Kaitlin is gonna message her to tell her she is evicting her so although she may be pissed off now, by being honest with and letting her know, it can only help me in the long run should I make it to the finals.
Oh and the final thing and the reason I feel less guilty about this vote is that I got the following message from Keesha earlier today;
So basically Keesha wanted me to message Cody and tell him if he kept me safe then I would evict Keesha and vote he he wants but then wanted me to evict Kenny. She wanted me to lie to Cody and make an enemy out of him basically. Now I'm all for lying in this game but only on my terms thank you I did Infact message Cody telling him I was evicting Keesha and voting how he wanted me to, but that was the truth.
It is gonna be hard evicting Keesha because I genuinely like her but ultimately it's a game and she's a huge threat so she does have to go.

Of course Sabrina I need a comp win to prove that I am a competitor because I haven't been able to do that yet! I've had nobody approach me for an end deal so I would love to wjn veto and take u down from the block and then we could take it from there and hopefully sit at the end together!
Thank you for reaching out to me about that Sabrina and I'm gonna work my arse off to get you off the block! I feel like I need to win a comp and I definitely need to make a power move and I think taking you down would prove to the others that I'm not just here for the ride.

Got your message on AIM! its okay, I haven't been on a lot either so I get it.
But in terms of the game I have not been so good. Obviously I am on the block and that sucks, but kaitlin and kenny have not reached out to me since last week. Kaitlin lied directly to me about her vote and kenny never gave me a straight answer so I am worried. I am hoping they would evict sab over me but I'm unsure.
Anyway I'm glad you're safe this week and I hope you can help me stay. I'm gonna need it

Hey keesha! It's shit you are nominated because I know that if Sabrina had of win which originally happened then I think we would have been safe!
I know you wanted Cody gone this week and I'm sorry I didn't go through with it but I had to make a decision which was best for my game and the fact Alex told me outright he was going to target me, I would have been stupid to not evict him. The comments about my grandma did just put the cherry on the cake but that's why I told I before the eviction because I did want to explain!
And OF COURSE I'm gonna help you stay Keesha, I want me and you there at the end! Although we may have had different views and game this last round and done different things, you'll always be my number one in this game so so don't sweat it ok.

Hey keesha! This isn't the message you're going to want to read but I am so sorry but I'm going to be evicting you this round :/
I know you are going to feel betrayed and be pissed off with me and I'm sorry for that but I'm making the decision that I think is best for me in the game!
You are such a string player Keesha and that's why I'm voting this way. On a personal level I have loved getting to know you I really have but ultimately this is a game. Sorry again keesha!

Hey Topaz,
Hope you're feeling better! I'm sorry you weren't able to make the veto. Unfortunately Sabrina won, so we need you to NOT go up. If you go up I do think that Kaitlin and Kenny would send me home, but it would be better if one of them went up. It would give us an opportunity to split up that pairing.
Hopefully you do want to keep me over Kenny, because I think it would be best for both of us if you promised Cody that you'll vote however he wants. I don't like asking you to lie but I do think that Cody will put you up as a replacement nominee to assure I go home. But he's already put up Kenny once so he may do it again. Hopefully you're closer to him than Kenny and he'll leave you off!
