Game II - Day 5 Jul 24, 2008
Well I'm only two days away from the final, I think I'm genuinely worried about my position now within the house. I placed in a previous post about a set of nominations and it was wrongly put into context (my fault) that the third person should leave. That person states in my post it was Lexxu which is incorrect because the person I wanted to leave was Winner.

But his sudden use of such profanity shocks me, its only a game. And I think we're all old enough to use a bit of common sense and not go flying off the handle like that, I've apologised to him on his page and in our game. I just hope it doesn't spiral.

Game II - Day 4 Jul 23, 2008
So I'm halfway through the fourth day now. What is really surprising me about this game is that one of the players has been nominated three straight times in a row. Vote4Llama is an active user, he contributes towards conversations yet he finds himself up for the chop - personally, I hope he stays because I like the guy and I think he deserves a day of not worrying about whether or not he'll be evicted.

These last few days have been nothing but exciting times and arguments. They really know how to throw in a bunch of freaks into a game hahaha! But I'm really enjoying it now, I think I would enjoy it more with this group of people if the game lasted maybe two weeks instead of one. So far I know I'll make it to the end of Day 5, I have a feeling that I must start being more pro-active to stay out of the red.

Game II - Day 3 Jul 21, 2008
Well the new nominations are out after Ethan got the boot, they mirror the previous day except that now Lexxu is the third nomination. This is difficult to judge now because out of the three put up I like two of them (personally I dont care about the third guy and hope he goes).

Everything between Jessica, Leanz and Poetic has simmered down now. I got my doubts, maybe it was a strategic move? I'm not sure but I've guaranteed to make it past the halfway point so I'm satisfied so far with my performance. I just hope everyone keeps me around long enough to make the finals.

Game II - Day 2 Jul 21, 2008
Well quite an interesting scenario in my current game. It all branched out when one of the players called another person "boring" on the basis they only said "Hi" - to me that seemed a little bit extreme for the first day so I stuck up for the person being called boring and now for some insane reason it has become a war between two housemates.

Thankfully, neither are up for eviction because that will be one hell of a battle to rally votes against one another. I've also been informed several players are easily swayed and I believe they think I'm going to be one of those who will join the flock. Dare I become a swing vote in this game? I'm not overly confident about my position in the game at the moment but all I know is all the drama and attention is being taken away from me which is ideal.

To make a good prediction I believe I may be safe for a few more days but if I happen to make an eviction then who knows what might occur. All I know is I have to play it safe to make it to the finals.

Game II - Day 1 Jul 19, 2008
Well I'm back here again. I took a short break from everything to get my head sorted out as I said previously. Looks like quite an active bunch of guys and girls and I'm going to be on my best behaviour.

Usually, the first two days or so are just in the "getting to know you" stage so it'll be interesting to see who I'm in this game with. I'm not going to play it like I did the last time, I will aim to be more laid back and vote positive unlike my previous game which I was totally hardcore and determined to not be nominated.

Lets see how things gel out.

Day 7 - Endgame Jun 20, 2008
Well I'm very happy to say that my first game I bagged myself the top spot. Out of those nine brilliant people who I grew to love individually and deserved to win I done it. I won.

In itself I loved everyday playing, the atmosphere of evictions, the shock of people leaving over those who didnt deserve to be there it felt like Big Brother. And what was even better was people who put the effort into the days survived the nominations.

So, what now? Do I enroll right away? The answer is no, the game took a lot out of me for this week so its time to take a small break from the proceedings and get stuff in order before I commit another week. Maybe I should pack it in and leave on a high note but that would be taking away the fact that I stole someones potential win and ran off.

I'm rambling, but hey, I enjoyed playing against Amy and Rob who I believe will win their own games soon because they came damn close (especially Amy, a worthy final two member). Peace out.
