This challenge can kinda show where people stand with others, there will be some major hardcore blocking going on (kinda like what Nick did to Sofia) that could get people pissed off. Glad I'm not playing in this one, hopefully I can avoid the block!
I could see Brian winning this HOH and that is very scary. Remember the hot ass mess that was last time? It didn't work out so well for me...
Also, I'm not sure what Zach will do so that would be an interesting HOH, if he does win hopefully he keeps up his half of our deal since I kept my half.
Zach as HOH could get interesting. He was apart of the "blocking" the trio from getting long periods of time and wants one of them out this week but I don't know if he will go after them. They can't keep getting by or else none of us will even has a chance at making the finals. They can just beast their way the entire end game like they did in their seasons. I know it's a bit hypocritical of me since I didn't go after them last round, I just felt Heather/Nick were more of threats to my game. Zach & I made a deal after I stayed against Keith/Heaven and like I said earlier, I kept up on my end of the deal so I'm hoping he keeps up on his end of the deal. I'll be really ticked off if he puts me up this round.
I talked to Zach this morning and I think (unless something changes) that he will put up Matt & Floptina with the plan to BD Sofia. He says I am safe and he is going to tell people that I'm the backdoor plan (gee thnx zach) so all I can do is hope that he is telling me the truth and is lying to everyone else and wont put me up if the veto does get used. If this round goes as he plans and Sofia leaves, Zach puts himself in a really good position. Heaven & Ryan will understand why Zach wanted Sofia out and aren't going to be against him since he has proven loyalty again and again to them, they will continue to target Floptina/Brian/Matt/Candice/Me+Nick. Zach will have taken out one of, if not, the biggest threat in the game. He will be the house hero for finally breaking up the trio and sending one of them out.
He knows that everyone else in the game will target Heaven/Ryan and not him. So really, besides a pissed off Sofia, he will escape this HOH relatively bad blood free. Sure he might piss off Matt & Floptina for putting them up, but what are they going to do about it? Win a comp? Ok sure lets say they do that, they will like 95% go after the trio before Zach anyways. So well done Zach if this goes as plans.
Sidenote, he can like force my hand if it's Sofia/Floptina on the block together. Plus even if it was MAtt/Sofia, it's not even the smartest thing to keep Sofia because I can't beat her in the end + she won't go after Heaven and probably not Ryan.
If Sofia wins the veto, she will likely not use it. She won't risk anyone in the game to save Floptina or Matt I think. In that case, Floptina will have a good chance at leaving.
This round is all around terrible for my numbers, but good because I should survive it? Sigh.
edit: the way I see this getting messy is if heaven or ryan win veto. Apparently he will ask them to use the veto to BD me and then do Sofia. I see that ending sooo messy.
