Week One HOH: David Nominees: Jordan and Rachel Veto: Jordan Final Nominees: Rachel and Kaysar
It would be nice for either of them to leave, Rachel for her inactivity, and Kaysar for his being slightly more of a threat than Rachel. David has made it clear that he'd prefer Rachel to go. So for this week, I will do as he wishes...
I vote to evict Rachel.
Good-bye Messages:
Rachel, not sure what happened to you. You've disappeared which is obviously the reason why you're now sitting outside of the house. It would have been cool for all of the BB6ers to hang in there a little while longer.
Kaysar, we weren't that close but it still sucks to see you go. It would have been cool for all of the BB6ers to hang in there a little while longer. But alas, it was not to be. Good luck out there.

Week Two HOH: Amy Nominees: Michelle and Kaysar Veto: Jordan Final Nominees: Michelle and Kaysar
At first I would have thought this was a no-brainer...I've talked with Michelle much more than I have with Kaysar. It would be more beneficial for me to keep Michelle most likely. But also, keeping Kaysar would help my "alliance" win more competitions down the road.
I vote to evict Michelle.
Good-bye Messages:
Michelle, I told you I'd see what I could do about rallying votes for Kaysar so you could stay...but I think your performance in the food challenge and being more active than Kaysar had people worried. It sucks that you have to leave so early.
Kaysar, we weren't that close but it still sucks to see you go. It would have been cool for all of the BB6ers to hang in there a little while longer. But alas, it was not to be. Good luck out there.

Week Three HOH: George Nominees: Roddy and Nathan Veto: Nathan Final Nominees: Roddy and Holly
This is the toughest vote yet. I love both Roddy and Holly. If this vote had been either of the last 2 weeks, my decision would have been a lot easier...I've been close with Holly right from the start, but Roddy was in one of the first alliances I made and now I talk to him quite often. Holly and I have become a little distant. So I'm torn. I have to think ahead to who will help me in the long run. So that's how I'm basing my vote.
I vote to evict Holly.
Good-bye Messages:
Roddy, I guess we now know who people were lying to...It sucks to see you go, just when you were able to come around a lot more. I've enjoyed working with you, it's too bad it has to end here. It wasn't your time.
Holly, you'll always be my girl. I'm sad to see you leave the game. I've enjoyed playing duckball with you and working together inside this giant, giant alliance. Things are definitely changing. This really sucks...

Week Four HOH: Nakomis Nominees: Will and Erika Veto: Erika Final Nominees: Will and Jordan
Well. Will vs. Jordan seems like a no-brainer. Just follow the plan.
Jordan is a huge competition threat, but I do like her more than Will, whom I've never spoken to. However, he's now living in the kombi van and appears to be the lesser threat to me and mine.
I vote to evict Jordan.
Good-bye Messages:
Will, it's kind of ironic that the first words I'll remember saying to you are "so long". I know communication is a two way street, but that's really all there is to say.
Stripper Jordan, I'm guessing you've got to be so pissed right now. And I don't blame you. Being backdoored sucks big! I guess you now know how Holly felt last week. I'm pretty sure that's the reason people couldn't not vote to evict you. That, and the fact that you are a competition threat. I did enjoy our time together by the way. Maybe now that you're gone though, I can step up and become the Veto King that you've always referred to me as. Bye...

Week Five HOH: Janelle Nominees: Drew and Danielle Veto: Justin Final Nominees: George and Danielle
This vote is to make the game a little easier for me and my alliance. Although I'd love to see George stay and wreak havoc, I can't take the risk.
I vote to evict George.
Good-bye Messages:
Danielle, the first of the sexy yellow room to fall. I feel like if you had been more involved in the larger alliance, you might still be here. Sorry to see you go.
George, you expected to go a couple of weeks ago, so you lasted longer than you thought! That in itself is an accomplishment. I appreciate your gameplay, which is the reason you're now out of the game, but it sucks to see you go Chicken Man.

Week Seven HOH: Janelle Nominees: Kaysar and Justin Veto: Jee Final Nominees: Kaysar and Justin
I'm a little torn about this one actually...I mean, I wouldn't mind seeing either go, but I want to make sure I vote the right person this week. Majority are supposedly voting out Kaysar, which makes me think that the people who are pushing for him to go are close to Justin, which makes Justin more of a threat to me. It's likely that both Kaysar and Justin voted to evict me last week, so seeing one of them leave is pretty sweet, although I was hoping to be voting to evict someone else entirely.
I vote to evict Justin.
Good-bye Messages:
Kaysar, I guess it was finally your time. It was most likely the timezone issue that affected things. I did enjoy talking to you when we did. So long.
Justin, we never talked a lot, but I was told I could trust you...so I did. Whether that helped me or hurt me in the long run, I've no way of knowing until the end of the game. It's gotten very difficult to know who you can actually trust in this game...I'll see you later.

Week Eight HOH: Justin Nominees: Roddy and Janelle Veto: Nathan Final Nominees: Roddy and David
I accidently modified this vote and good-bye messages when I went to make my current vote!
To sum up what I said...it was a difficult decision to make, I hated having to make it. I wanted to keep my word, but also didn't want to be targetted because of it. Ultimately, David asked us all to vote him out so that wouldn't happen.
I vote to evict David.
Good-bye Messages:
Roddy, I'm sorry I don't remember what I wrote originally...doesn't matter as you remained in the game.
David, hopefully you've already seen this message, as I won't be able to repeat it now word for word. In a nutshell, I enjoyed having you as my partner in crime, I thank you for all that you've done, and I wish you good luck in getting on the real Big Brother!

Week TenHOH: Roddy Nominees: Danielle and Erika Veto: Nathan Final Nominees: Danielle and Justin Not a really hard decision... Justin showed his true colours when he opened up the backdoor for David. I nominated him the following time because I had to to ensure that there'd be a chance for Drew to leave the game. I can't help but feel if he sticks around, that he'll be looking for a little retribution. Now Danielle I also put on the block as a "pawn". I let her know this and she said she understood my position. I'm hoping that's true as we move forward in this game. I vote to evict Justin.Good-bye Messages:Danielle, looks like it was finally your time this time. It's a little ironic that the three times you were up, it was by 3 of your alliance members. But you know when I did it, I had no intention of you walking out the door. I enjoyed playing with you, it's too bad you weren't a tad more social, we could have had some real fun. Justin, I don't really know what to say to you. I have mad respect for the game you played, but mostly because I was never the target of your backstabbing, not directly anyway. I think this was just an opportunity that was too good to waste for most people. Sorry that your game had to end here.

Week Eleven HOH: me (James!) Nominees: Nathan and Danielle Veto: Nathan Final Nominees: Nathan and Amy
This was not the plan I had in mind this week. But an opportunity now presents itself to get rid of a huge threat, and right before jury formation! It was Nathan's idea to go up as a pawn, so I went along with it, who wouldn't? lol Anyway, this was to ensure Danielle would go, according to him. So he then saves her with veto? What is up with that? I've had enough of Nathan and his games, and I'm putting my faith in Roddy, Nakomis, Erika and Jee this week, that they will vote along with me to evict his ass, like he deserves. How dare he go against the HOH's wishes and try to get me to put up someone he wants out! Little does he know, this what I wanted more than anything and I couldn't have set it up any better myself!
I vote to evict Nathan.
Good-bye Messages:
Amy, I'm sorry it came to this. I really had faith that people would see the player that Nathan is and take this opportunity to evict him. Who doesn't save themselves when they win veto? It had to be you in Danielle's place, because you wouldn't commit to voting him out, and I had to remove one vote. I was also hoping that Janelle would choose to keep you, incase I couldn't get all the votes I was hoping for. It was supposed to be an easy week, Danielle was supposed to go.
Nathan, I think I already said everything I needed to in the veto ceremony thread. But you were right about one thing: I have wanted you out for a very long time, but I kept with you because people like Janelle and David told me I could trust you. I think if you're reading this, the game has just changed big time. And I'm sorry you won't be on the jury. You know it was supposed to be Danielle this week, which would have been easy. But you saw differently. I guess so did other people.

Week Eleven - Take 2HOH: me (James!) Nominees: Nathan and Amy Coup D'Etat: Nathan Final Nominees: Roddy and Erika Bastard and his hidden agendas...I should have expected something. I vote to evict Roddy.Good-bye Messages:Roddy, I'm sorry it came to this. We almost had him where we wanted him. Should have known it was too good to be true. I've not given up yet, I'm going to try to work with some people to finally get the job done. Erika, Nathan's a douche. Sorry you're gone. It would have been nice for both of us to get further. Later babe.

Week Twelve HOH: Nakomis Nominees: Janelle and Amy Veto: Sarah Final Nominees: Janelle and Amy
Not surprising at all that Sarah didn't use veto. She's been playing safe all game, trying not to make waves...what did surprise me was that both Janelle and Amy gave up in the veto competition with their necks on the line.
I'd rather have one of you stick around over the other and it's the same thing Nakomis would have happen this week, so it's not that difficult a decision overall.
I vote to evict Amy.
Good-bye Messages:
Amy, you were right about your gut feeling...Until this last nomination speech, Nakomis had never mentioned you being her target. It's a little silly that you even have this relationship follow you through to all ORGs that you are in together. Anyway, it was fun while it lasted. I guess our "alliance" never really existed. I'm glad we talked recently about what was going through my head when I had nominated you. Sorry it had to be you this week.
Janelle, if you're reading this, I'm surprised that it went this way. Nakomis told me she'd prefer Amy to go, and I think it was obvious that that was her intent. You've been my girl for a long while, and I wanted us to get further together. Even with everything that went down, I think we both knew that we had each other's backs. Sorry your game is ending here.

Week ThirteenHOH: Jee Nominees: Danielle and Amy Veto: Sarah Final Nominees: Danielle and Amy Again, didn't expect Sarah to use veto. Glad she didn't. Hopefully we can finally get rid of Danielle this week. I've made up with Amy but not sure who's aware of that, so I've just been telling people that I really don't see her as that big of a threat, and they're agreeing. I vote to evict Danielle.Good-bye Messages:Amy, I don't understand why people want to see Danielle stay around and drag this game down. It's so annoying! I wasn't expecting you to go this week, but I shouldn't be surprised. Anyway, I'm glad we were on good terms upon your exit, I'd hate to have that lingering, you know? Sorry that your game is over here. Say hi to Janelle. Danielle, looks like people finally decided it was time for you to go. lol You hung in there longer than I think anyone expected you to. You know I like you as a person, but game-wise I just never knew what you were actually thinking or how reliable you would be. I'm sure you were busy with stuff all the time, but appearing to be "inactive" I think might have been some part of your strategy. haha. Too bad you weren't more social. I hope you enjoyed the game. See you soon probably.

Week FifteenHOH: Nathan Nominees: Erika and Amy Veto: Jee Final Nominees: Erika and Amy I had to agree with what Nathan wanted to have happen this week to keep myself out of danger. I made a mistake by not putting him up last week, but he did keep me safe this week, so I can't complain too much. The only thing that sucks is that Erika or Amy is leaving. Nathan prefers it to be Erika, so I tried to talk to Jee about saving her. But it's not going to work so... I vote to evict Erika.Good-bye Messages:Amy, I'm really really surprised that the vote was you this week. It was fun working together while it lasted. I'm sorry I couldn't put Nathan up when I had the chance. Maybe I'll be right behind you. Erika, I'm sorry that I didn't put up Nathan when I had the chance. I know how suspicious it looked, but I really do not have a final 2 deal with him, or anyone. I should probably work on that, but it might be too late for me now. You know I tried to save you from leaving this week. You're probably the only person I didn't lie to in this game. I wanted us both to get further than this. I'm hoping I won't be joining you next week, so you have someone to root for from the jury house.

Week Sixteen HOH: Jee Nominees: Nathan and Nakomis Veto: Jee Final Nominees: Nathan and Nakomis
There's been a plan all week that really depended on what happened with the veto. That plan can now hopefully come to fruition. It's been a long time coming, and hopefully someone's about to get what they deserve. Yes, Nakomis was angry with me, but we still talk regularly. Nathan I think has started to finally trust me, but I'm not 100% on that. Next week, my biggest competition for HOH will be whichever of these nominees stays. And honestly, I can beat Nakomis I believe more easily than Nathan. Winning HOH is the only way to guarantee I'll be safe. Also, everytime Nathan had a chance to, he ruined my plans. I haven't forgotten about all that.
Making final four feels good, I think I've played a good game and if it ends next week, so be it.
Hold on, let me relish in this moment...
...
...
...
k, done.
I vote to evict Nathan.
Good-bye Messages:
Nakomis, I'm actually very surprised that you are gone. Why do we keep letting Nathan get away with his crap? You played a good game, I'm glad we got to know each other as well as we have. It was fun playing with you. Maybe I'll be seeing you soon...who knows? Oh yeah, good luck with the move!
Nathan, where do I even begin? haha. We've probably had one of the rockiest relationships of this entire game. I don't think we ever fully trusted each other, but it was beginning to feel like maybe we did during these last couple weeks. I have to admit that after all the plotting, the secheming, and the manipulating you've done to get this far, I feel kind of bad that your game is ending here. You tried to make some sense in your last few PMs saying that all the girls will vote for each other to win. But this, like almost everything you did or said contradicts something else you did or said during the game. Who knows what anyone will do in the upcoming rounds and jury portion? I guess I'll have to take my chances. Sorry, it's been fun.

FINAL 2Nakomis vs. Amy So basically you both played some kind of a social game, but it can't have been the greatest social game because neither of you talked to Danielle. She told me this herself. I talked to Danielle. And almost everyone else, so I played a pretty game social game too. My vote won't be based on who played the better social game. You both lied to a bunch of people, but you weren't the best liars. That distinction belongs to Nathan. Actually he was a good liar, but he was bad at it too. Anyway, I lied a bit also. In fact everyone did...My vote won't be based on that. I became close to both of you during the game, however neither of you were even thinking of taking me very far and this was before I nominated you guys. You already had your allies set, and you talked about how other people could have thought a little more outside of the box (myself included! ) in terms of alliances and such. I turned on alliance members when I thought the time was right, I basically turned on everyone at some point and I didn't think outside the box? lol So I won't be basing my vote on that and who had a better hold on what was going on in the game. There is one thing that one of you did better than the other...and that's performance in competitions. Yes, Nakomis won more than Amy did, which is important, even if you're playing the perfect social game, which neither of you did. Not Winning (or even throwing) competitions leaves to always have to rely on others, which is no fun and you're still taking chances. So Nakomis winning more competitions edges her ahead of Amy. And another thing I'm basing my vote on is the fact that one of these ladies got rid of me when they had the chance and one of them didn't. I vote for Nakomis to win.
