Game 7790, Congratulations! Jan 15, 2009
Game 7790 just wrapped and that was definitely the hardest game I have ever played, I was in there with some All Star players! First off, congratulations to Alex1991 on the win, and to everyone else who made the finals. Day 1 I picked 4 people who I really wanted to see in the end with me and every single one of them made it! So I did something right ha.
I was first HoH. I'm sure my fellow housemates are wondering who was the 3rd person in the TripleXXX and Hiltons alliance, that was ME! ha. As much as I liked them, I heard that this alliance was extended with others, and I knew they would protect each other over me, so sorry, that is why I had to vote out Hiltons.
I was nominated twice in a row and felt completely screwed at winning this game. Definitely give a lot of thanks to 2Cool4School for vetoing me and for everyone who came through for me and voted to keep me in.
As for the final 5, I definitely made good friends with all of them, but there was one person who I gave my word to take to the final 2, and that was 2Cool4school. As much as I wanted Daniel in the final 3 with us, I knew he was the biggest threat in there and that's why I had to vote him out. I used the final veto on TripleXXX. Sorry for stepping on your toes guys, it was a really competitive game  and a game well played by all! Look forward to playing with you again sometime.

Bad game Nov 16, 2008
Man, 1 day away really does you in. I wasn't home for the weekend, I know I could've done much better in my last game if I had the chance to get on the computer. I didn't even know I had the HoH. I think what surprised me the most was that I actually had the votes to stay, it was that ERG veto that got me evicted. Anyway, 8th place sucks and doesn't look good on my record but, oh well, I just have to make sure I can be around at all times next time. This is why I know I can't play any casting games anymore now that the days are 12 hours long. I am not in my home city most weekends and usually have to rely on my phone to get on this site, but I still can't do things like vote and give karma (or any other java things) from my phone. It's a bit of a handicap. That will be my last game for about a month, I know I won't be able to be really dedicated to any game until then. Sorry to my friends who bet on me.

I've done 2 games now Sep 5, 2008
I've completed two of these games now, and still not really sure how everything works but I've done something right.

My first game was cool, it was all new to me. It was all dudes and we all got along until about day 3, then it just got really volitile with 1 person and the rest of the house. I didn't expect that much drama, do people not realize this is an online game? Retarded... After that person was removed by us, the rest of us were all ok with each other. My mistake was not going after a couple of the threats earlier. I managed to make it the whole way never ever being nominated, and I think only one other person avoided nominations. In the end, I placed 2nd and Firelord placed first. None of expected that because he was inactive most of the time, but kudos to him for making a comeback.

My second game I really didn't enjoy that much. I was targetted from day 1, I apparantly came across as experienced in this game. I wasn't nominated until the final 6 and first chance they got they voted me out, which was the best decision so nice job on that. I really didn't click with anyone this time around, there seemed a more immature dynamic this time around, lots of girls dying for attention. There was no one who I was truly alligned with. It was pretty transparent to me the whole time, but you have to deal with what nominations are dealt to you, and you can't get all the threats out at once. It came down to the best player I think.

All in all it's a game and it's all good, and I'm taking a little break from it. Could end up being a very short break though haha, I have no idea.
