Okay. First diary room entry here. Basically I'll just talk about the people I've chatted with, and how my "general approach instead of a set strategy" is working. If you're reading and wondering who the f*ck I am, fear not, let me recap. You see, I was in RNF8. Being a longtime Big Brother fan, I was excited. What I found out quickly was, that in fact, I was horrible at comps. So I started throwing them, and started talking to people more. Caleb was there, he was insane. I was a comedic oasis who for some, a guy who talked his way into All-Stars because he's slow as f*ck when he's doing comps. Now that you're caught up, let's move on to this season, shall we? We shall.
What do you call an alligator wearing a vest? An In-Vest-igator! You're welcome, you're welcome. Alright, moving on towards my first impressions.
My house first, of course. I'm not fond of it, but I see why this group exists. It's a bunch of drama waiting to happen. Sofia and Mike, Ash, Drew, Me, Luisa, Keith, other people I'm forgetting. So that mixed with the comp beasts there is gonna make it a bumpy ride, but I'm down for it. Here we go.
Ash- I really didn't like him RnF9. We've talked a bit and we're cool, but he really doesn't like to be disturbed. So meh. GTFO
Drew- Me and him are working together. Mostly because we got named for the "Who will do better this season" question in the HOH (which I did well, until question 2 and I bombed everything). I totally remember him having everyone under his thumb in his other game, so I'm taking him with a grain of salt, but I'm game for now. Especially with the comp beasts and my lack of comp-ness, I need people on my side.
Heaven - We talked once, she said she was friends with Ryan. He's in this house. So like, I'm not cool with this right now, but there's nothing I can do until we have a couple more conversations
Keith - We've talked a bit. He's pretty cool and I'm pretty sure he thinks I'm alright too. Like with Heaven, I haven't talked to him much. So that worries me, but I'm not pressing it.
Luisa - We didn't get along in my season, and we both seem to be neutral with each other now. Not good, and not bad. I'll talk to her more tomorrow, try to single her out and chat more, just to feel her out more. She said she'll flip out if Sofia puts up anyone else instead of Keith, so I'm secretly kinda hoping that happens, you know, for entertainment.
Matt - Annoying.
Mike - Seems like a pretty cool guy, but let's just be honest. He's not going that far unless he switches houses.
Ryan - We still seem to be pretty cool with each other. I think as long as he's not f*cking up his game by doing so, he'd vote to keep me in the house. It's the smart thing, really. Because a vote counts for a lot in these small houses, so he's gonna want to rack up as many as he can get. At least that's what I'm trying to do.
Sofia - Okay i love her and she's great and super nice. That said, she's already HOH and a huge comp threat. She needs someone who's awkward and not a threat at all. Enter me. I basically told her in the unlikely event I win HOH, I wouldn't dream of putting her up, because she's super cool and nice (Which she 100% is! I'm not dissing her at all!). I think that put me on her good side, I'm not totally out of the clearing yet, I gotta talk to her a lot more though, take on the mentor-mentee (I don't think that's right) scenario to get me further into the game, but I'm safe this week, so I'm thinking about next week. Ja feel?
OTHER PEOPLE!
Brian's cool. Britney's cool. Boog's nice.Christine's nice. Danielle's still a badass. Me and Memphis are cool. Me and Zach get along very well (But like with Drew and Sofia, I know Zach is great at the game, so I'm watching him. Nick's super rad too & Shilpa is life.
I think my best approach right now is to play off like I'm clueless. A few seemed to latch on when I told them this was my second game and my first was rnf8. So I'm trying to downplay any threat level by making it seem like I'm still wide eyed and bushy tailed. In the beginning, I was just trying to be the nice and funny guy who would talk to you, but now I'm taking more of a beginner route, choosing instead to cling to whatever boat I think is the fastest. If that means switching boats, so be it. Or I could just sound like a total tool right now, who knows, right?
Also, if you're wondering "Why does this look so plain and not all pretty", it's because computers confuse me. I know that when i slap my hand down on the keyboard it makes words sometimes, but that's about it.
