Rachelle's Rennaissance

[Rachelle Diamond]

Where I shall post long and hopefully not boring blurbs about all the shit this season!

--WEEK 1--

[Rachelle Diamond]

Rebirth

Time for a new Roro! Being loyal as James didn't work and being cutthroat as Rachelle didn't work SO NOW it's time for Rachele v2.0! My work schedule is a bitch this summer so I'm gonna have a tough time this season. I'll only be able to socialize a few hours a day before I get sleepy lol. I'll have to do with what I got though! While winning competitions is usually a must have in my resume I shall try and limit that this season because I don't want to stick out all that much. I'm going to only try and win if I feel I need to. If I don't have at least 3 houesguests that I feel comfortable nominating then it isn't totally worth it to win HoH in the early stages. I need to focus on building connections quickly with these people because I see things getting rough pretty fast. Hopefully those connections will help me last through pre-jury phase and then I can really start playing.

I'm not the whole redeeming myself kind of person but after that embarrassment of a final HoH from last season I REALLLLLLY want to win haha. However, I understand that will likely not happen. But that's okay, I won't lose any sleep over it . I don't see people wanting to target me for the way I played last season because there are a lot more people who are bigger threats than myself. I think if at all, I'll be targeted for not socializing enough. Ughh that damn social game has always been my kryptonite!

Dis Shit Wack!

Oh. My. Lanta. I have to deal with 26 other players? WHYYYYYY??? If you ask me that's 26 too many - how about just me and we end the season there? Just like many others, I'm hoping for us all to be split into houses. Three houses of 9 sounds good to me! I'm expecting yall to recycle the twists from the past season just like you did in AS1 so ... uhh yeah ... that should be fun. I don't wanna see that MVP shit again! Drew will probably get it anyway. I think as long as I'm talking to mostly everyone I should be good to go for the first few rounds.

Random

I'll say it again: this board is so fucking sexy! Why is Russell taking forever to check in? You'd think that since he's a replacement he would be one of the first to check in but noooooo. Hopefully he gets targeted right off the bat. Let us discuss the memory wall shall we? Only the cool kids get different pics compared to their original seasons. Like me! Boog looks like Skye and it's frickin annoying! Nick's pic is weird - it looks like it's mirrored or some shit. Zach and Mike look like brothers lol. Luisa is frightening. So many of the headshots don't even look like the players lmao it's hilarious. Can someone remind me why on earth I decided to play as Rachelle last season? I hated her on her real season lmao. At least she's pretty - that should get me through the season. Can I play as James instead?? Pwetty pwease? Jamchelle ftw!

[Rachelle Diamond]

So Far

Talking to these people is such a chore I tell ya! Obviously the most important conversation I've had is with Sofia. We hit it off right away and decided to work together. She's definitely someone I want to keep close throughout the game. She says she was a fan of mine too so that's good to hear! I think my dream alliance would be a foursome with Sofia, Heaven and Ryan. Heaven and Ryan are obviously close and Sofia has that connection with Heaven ala ShadowAS and I think it would be great if 4 comp beasts rode it out to the end.

I spoke with Ika and ughh it's basically back to basics with her. She kinda took things personally from last season lol. The delusions are so real with that woman. I don't have time to hate on her in real life though - it's just a game, get over it. I thought I would be able to work with her for real this time around but I don't I'll be able to tolerate her. She already thinks that Drew is gonna be mad at us for some reason. I mean I don't think he's that vengeful of a person so I don't know what that's bothering her so much.

And then came the convo I was most dreading: Shilpa. I've never been in a situation where I have to play with someone I genuinely betrayed in a previous season. I didn't think she would be mad or anything but I was still not looking forward to the awkwardness. Once I addressed it, we agreed to reunite #Rachilpa because it's WHAT THE FANS WANT TO SEE. Idk. We obviously have some kinks to work out though and I don't see things ever being the same but for now it'll have to do!

Brittany and I also decided to align! Perfect! She was definitely someone I wanted to work with in this game because she's as sweet as pie and loyal as she proved in her previous season. Matt was the first person to IM me and I was invisible lmao. That makes me think that he's just working that social game hardcore. I can see people getting annoyed real fast with him. Danielle proved to be boring, unfortunately. I did have some fun by tricking her with that p.l.a.n.t garbage lol. Boog was hilarious with it though. While she def isn't my first choice, I don't see why keeping her close to me would be a bad idea. Brian skipped the pleasantries and went straight into my thoughts about twists and junk. Lmao should be a fun season with him here!

All Star Cast Assessment

This will be a post by post revelation...

Mwahahah

[Rachelle Diamond]

Jk lawl. Time to bring back the rainbow colours!

Ash- He annoys me. I've never seen someone take such a 360 in a game. He was so nice in the beginning of last season but when things didn't go his way it was like "RAWR! I AM REPTAR!" Don't trust this dude at all.
Boog- I only read the game discussion from last season so my first impression of Boog was that she was the female Ash: nice at the start but a different person when nominated. However, after talking to her ... I love her! Could see myself working with her for sure!
Brian- I'm glad he's playing because it'll make for an entertaining and frustrating experience. He's not the greatest at retaining allies so I'll steer clear from getting into one with him. Not many people seem to be fond of him so I forsee him being an early boot.
Brittany- She's great! I think she's still relatively new at these games so she's unfamiliar with relationships and whatnot. She's a loyal person I believe and I think she's genuine with wanting to work me so hopefully this alliance lasts for a while!
Candice- Great character choice btw! Conversations aren't the best though and I don't think she'll form many strong relationships.
Casey- I kind of regretted voting Andrew out the last All Stars so I was looking forward to trying and changing that this season. I can only see myself working with him out of neccessity though.
Christine- Definitely want to work with her for real this time! She's playing in another game though so I'm not sure how much she'll be available. I can see her getting lost in the mix though which may get her far or out soon. From what I know she only has bonds with the rest of the season 9 players so she'll have to work on that.
Christopher- Let the riddles commence! I see him keeping cards close to his chest as usual. I want him gone soon because I really don't want to deal with his antics. Gives me a headache lol. He's a host himself so he may have relationships with some of the players and he pretty much knows most people in the game. However, I don't see that helping him very much.
Danielle- She though I was the funniest in the HoH lmao. She's not the most interesting person to talk to but hopefully if I chat with her on a regular basis she'll want to work with me in the future. I'm unsure where her and Ryan stand after their last season so I can see her leaving pre-jury.
Drew- He's definitely going to do better than the last time he played. He has connections like everywhere lol. I want to try and get back to our season 2 relationship this time around and I think he'll be open to it. I don't want to deal with invisible Dom from AS1.
Hayley- Another sweetheart! I think she's underestimated as a player which is why I'd love to team up with her! I've layed the groundwork so hopefully it sprouts into something useful for the future.
Heather- Ramona <3. I'm unsure on how I feel about Heather. She's obviously a strong social player and has connections with many players but maybe it's because of those reasons that I can't trust her.
Heaven- Maybe the nicest person on the planet lmao. And the best competitor in the game for sure. I definitely want her on my side there's no denying that. I think my connection with Sofia will help with that. I think keeping up socially is her only weakness really. She's super close with Ryan I think? I remember her introducing Ryan to the series.
Ika- Diva. It's going to be very hard trusting her this time around. She doesn't seem to be familiar with the history of other players so that's a good thing lol. I think those that are unfamiliar with her will get tired of her fast. She's probably gonna hate me again for talking shit about her lol.
Keith- I think he finds himself funny but I don't. Like at all. And wtf is this Keith's points thing? It's dumb lol. If I remember correctly, he's a host himself so he might have connections. I think his behaviour will get him ousted though.
Luisa- Holy mother this girl is so boring. At first I thought I'd give her the benefit of the doubt because I gave up reading her long ass recap confessionals but meh. Don't see her lasting long.
Matt- He's kind of a try hard lmao. Talking to everyone so that he has "social game" covered. He's pretty boring to talk to though which is strnage because he was hilarious as a Housecaller,
Memphis- He's like the male Nicole lol. Super nice and easy to talk to. I think he's tight with the like of Heather, Zach and Nick? I see this guy making it far yo.
Neda- I was her favourite as James and Rachelle so WOOT. It's nice to talk to her without her being all weird as Danielle, Suzette, Amanda etc. She can be vicious though so I'll have to watch out for that. She has her connection with Zach from their last season so that may get her far. Definitely an option to work with moving forward.
Nick- This guy. One of the biggest threats in the game for sure. We've always had this sarcastic banter relationship so it would be nice to chance that. However, we're always so awkward with one another and can't seem to get real. Hopefully he has other targets in mind for the time being.
Nicole- The ultimate sweetheart! My only problem with her is that she is so difficult to talk to! She has so much luck in games though and is always capable of winning. She has this inate ability of just not appearing threatening which makes her dangerous.
Ryan- Another comp beast! I think many will want to target him for that very reason. Just like Heaven the social game is his weakness. I would love to work him though.
Shilpa- We're still a bit awkward with one another but hopefully we get back in the groove soon. I'm definitely not her number one anymore which is fine because she's not mine haha. Her social game is always great but it usually leads to her being voted out midway through jury.
Sofia- Huge fan! She's great at competitions and can slice and dice you with her words like no other! I definitely need to stay away from her bad side lol. She has many enemies coming into the game but that won't stop her from giving a damn. I think her mouth and treatment of players is what'll be her demise.
Zach- Biggest threat in the game if you ask me. Despite that, I appreciate how he's always straight forward and honest with me and for that reason I want to work with him in this game. Definitely not a final 2 scenario but if it can buy me some safety then that's what I'll do.

Houses

I feel alright with my house tbh. I felt better when Nicole won HoH and told me I'm safe. At the moment she's thinking Casey and Chris which is perfectly fine for me. Candice, Casey, Chris, Ika and Nick are who I would consider for nominations if I were to win. The highlight of the night was my conversation with Zach though. According to him we have an unspoken bond (lol wtf?) and I pitched working together which he graciously accepted. He proposed a trio with Nicole which was even better! Obviously, Zach has other allies in the game too but I don't see him betraying me any time soon. I don't have any plans on going to the end with this alliance either.

I'm hoping houses will be switching every round because I don't want to be in my house for TOO long. The button is an interesting addition though. Scandalous even! Mike is for sure going to press it lmao. Sofia winning HoH is just brilliant. She asked me my thought on Drew because he had apparently hinted for Heaven to be nominated? Lmao. Some people think Keith will press the button for shits and . Casey is worried he may be nominated since Nicole nominated him the last All Stars so I wouldn't be too shocked if he pressed it. I kinda of hope a lot of people in my house press it so it gives reasons to go after them mwaha. Brian winning HoH is beyond hilarious. The power is so going to go to head and people are already worried. I spoke with Hayley and bonded with her tonight so we'll see where that little seed goes. Drew and I finally got to talk and agreed that we'd rather work together than apart. James and Dominic and back together! Does this make you happy, David? He also told me to add him on facebook which was weird because he's the first ORGer I've ever added lmao.

Estelle Coerced This Confessional Outta Me

Remember how I told yall that I'll keep myself out of the spotlight by not winning comps? Uhh yeah .... I lied lol. I wasn't expecting to win though since I felt like I forgot how to count with all them jumbled up numbers. I thought for sure a nominee had won that which is not what I wanted so I'm glad the power is in my hands. Obviously, I chose not to use the veto. Pretty simple decision - no need to rock the boat and risk drowning and shit. T'is only week 1! The nominees' campaign approaches were quite opposite though. While Casey offered up deals and all sorts of stuff, Chris knew that there was no shot I'd be using the veto. Thank goodness for that because I'd rather not get into it with Christopher so early in the game.

While I want to keep Casey because there's a better chance of us working together opposed to Chris and I working together, Nicole wants him gone and she's my ally. While I might slightly prefer Chris to leave because he annoys me and he's a wildcard with his antics, I definitely see the logic behind evicting Casey: he has friends in this game and will be a threat down the line. Shilpa on the other hand is apparently super adamant about wanting Chris gone. I think she's good friends with Casey so that coupled with the fact that she absolutely hates Chris seems to be the reason why she's pushing for it. 

Nick and I FINALLY started talking some real game and I might actually trust him more than Shilpa at this point lol. We decided to stay close since it seems we're on the same page. Him and Zach haven't outright said it, but I know they would rather have Casey leave. Saying that they're respecting the HoH's decision is what I would say too lol. Ika really wants Chris gone - however I think she's backing off now knowing that Nicole doesn't share the same interest. Candice is just going to go with the flow it seems. It will be interesting to see how Shilpa handles this - I kinda hope things crumble for her and she makes enemies. Mwahaha.

#House3IsAMess

LOLOLOLOLOLOL why did I get stuck with the crazy ones? Like maybe people are just lying to me but it seems like the other two houses are just chill with their respective votes. Mike kinda hinted to me that Hayley might stay which is yay for me and I don't even give a fuck who goes between Keith and Luisa. Ok, now back to my clusterfuck of a house lol. So Shilpa obviously wants Casey to stay. Zach and Candice both told me that those two are friends outside of the game which is funny because Shilpa acted like she doesn't talk to him at all. Ika obviously wants Chris to stay too. Zach and Nicole want him out. I'm making the decision to stick with the trio alliance I'm in which means bye bye Casey. Like it may be stupid but I feel comfortable with Zach and Nicole. Zach wouldn't just form an alliance with me for no reason. I do think he will be on my side for the time being.

Zach says that Nick is definitely getting rid of Casey but it seems Shilpa thinks he's a swing vote so she's trying to get me on board as the fourth. Sorry but I am not working with the likes of Ika okay lol. Chris is obviously going after Shilpa and there is a risk that he might nominate me along with her but that's a risk I'm willing to take. The bigger risk would be to piss off my new allies WEEK FRICKIN' ONE. I think Shilpa is much more concerned with keeping her friend, Casey, than getting rid of Chris. Like I get, it makes sense on her end. But it's only week one, girl, calm down. The likelihood of Chris winning HoH is very small and we might even be switching houses so simmer down. 

Casey hasn't even frickin' talked to me AT ALL tonight. Does he not realize that he's on the block? I tried to give him advice last night telling him to work on Nicole and make whatever deals he can. He isn't even campaigning to me though and we're both clearly online. Zach says that he got into a fight with Casey which is . Casey thinks he has Shilpa and Ika with the possible swings of Nick and Zach but Zachary shut up down apparently. I don't even know what to think of my house. We better be switching next round. Nicole talks years to respond, Casey doesn't talk, Chris keeps his cards close to his chest, Shilpa is overplaying, Ika is crazy. I think Candice is the only normal person here other than me. Plus, my house is super slow at doing shit. ANOTHER PLUS, BB17 is shit!

It's okay, Roro, just calm down. You'll get through this. Think of Heaven and her positivity. You'll be in the clear soon enough.

Code Red

   

Hurricane Roro & Tsunami Sof

---

We kinda had these little nicknames so I figured for a name we'd go down the natural disaster route. The Natural Disasters is a pretty meh name to me, mostly because its the name of an old tag team in wrestling. But Sof thinks Code Red has something to do with a natural disaster response and if not it still sounds pretty evil. Love us!

[Rachelle Diamond]

Hand of Fate

It's nice to be in the chill house this week if I'm being honest. Zach's target is obviously Chris but I know the last thing he wants is for the veto to be used so I'll be trying my hardest to make sure Chris doesn't win. At first I was worried because the veto is a puzzle and Chris won a puzzle veto last season (I remember because he saved me with it 8)) so there is definitely a chance he could win it again. Thankfully, Ika picked Sofia to play so hopefully her or Zach can pull it off because my puzzle skills are sub-par. I fear that Zach might be forced to put up Sofia should a nominee come down which would absolutely suck. At that point I would hope he still whoever is left on the block to go because there is no way Code Red is breaking up this early.

Honestly, I'm more concerned with the other houses lmao. Drew and Christine are making too bold of moves this early and I will definitely remember that for the future. If Ryan and/or Heaven go I will be irate. I got to talk to them both and they are totally into The Cool Kids Club. My dream alliance must happen! I've been getting so excited planning it with Sof and them so it would be a disaster should one or both of them go. I'm confident in their abilities though. Heaven should be able to win it easily but Ryan has tough competition in Nick, Shilpa and Drew so I'm a bit worried. As much as I love Nicole and want to continue working with her in this game, I need Heaven around much more. The BB Gods better not fuck around with me. Fate can really be a bitch sometimes but I'd like to think it would enjoy seeing The CKC lmao.

Mike is seriously annoying. Sorry but the button twist is a fail lmao cause no one else is a coward like he is. I mean it makes sense for him because he would have definitely been nominated both rounds had he not pressed the button but still - this is All-Stars so man up and face the music. He sent me a shitty PM too explaining his decision. Just trying to keep in my good graces I guess. Whatevs.

[Rachelle Diamond]

How The Game Goes...

I was definitely unable to hold me excitement upon learning Heaven and Ryan won veto. The Cool Kids Club is just meant to be! However 3 people will still be leaving the game and I'm only happy with 1 of those evictions. Chris is obviously dunso in my house. It feels so good to be in a chill house this week instead of that halfway house I was in last round. Everyone is voting Chris out but apparently only Sofia and I had the balls to let him know that. Neda was just all "Get the votes and I'll think about it" and Memphis was all "I don't wanna be a lone wolf in keeping you." Like just tell him you're voting him out sheesh! Chris says Zach will keep him in a tie LOL so he was working on me a lot. I have no problems hearing him out but I'm sorry I just can't trust you. While I don't have much trust in Ika either at least I trust her more than you. Me keeping Chris will just weaken my relationship with some allies. I had to be the one to basically tell him things aren't gonna go the other way and then he said bye and went offline lol. Kinda felt bad but sorry no eyes are on House 2 this week.

It seems like Nicole is most likely leaving with only Heaven keeping her. So lame. Kinda disappointed in Heather too. Apparently, her and Keith are "really good friends" ugh girl bye. It sucks cause I REALLY wanted to work with Nicole this game cause I think she's great. There better be a comeback twist hosts! As far as the other house goes ... I really hate Drew's decisions this week. I don't get why he's playing so frickin' hard in week 2. AND he's barely even been online to talk to people so he's been going with "his gut." He nominated Brittany which pissed me off even more. I'd hate to lose EITHER of them. I do have more trust in Brittany though so I would rather she stay. UGH idk. I've been helping her out with her campaigning a bit too telling her things Nick has told me. For real though, screw Drew and Christine. They painted massive targets on their backs so they can piss right off. Thankfully, I'm pretty sure they aren't after me for the time being lol. This round still sucks. How the game goes I guess.
