Alright. I was considering doing a disclaimer to the Houseguests reading through Diary Rooms after the game, but I decided against it. Instead, I just ask that you realize that I was just playing up a character, and having fun with it. If you took anything of what I've said or done to heart, then that's on you. Without further adieu, let me explain my thoughts on everyone.
JOSHUAH / SAM / RAMSEY
I honestly didn't get to know them at all. So I can't really say anything. I liked Ramsey the most out of everyone, but he wasn't active enough to get out of the inactive players guild.
NICK
I liked Nick. I thought it was stupid that he was fine with wanting to stay the previous week when it was against Ramsey, but when up against Naeha he had to leave. But I thought he was funny and wanted him to go further.
LIBRA
I never really talked to Libra. Even when I was gonna nominate her, she asked Howard to tell me not to do it, instead of asking me herself. I did think her and Kathy would win BOTB, but at the end of the day, she was close to Howard and she could easily have taken the wildcard spot that I tried to put myself into.
NAEHA
I really like Naeha, tbh. I think we fell on wrong sides of the house, that if everything was more out in the open, we probably would've ended up working together. Me wanting her gone came down to nothing more than my side of the house in my ear.
LIZ
Another person that I really like. We had a lot of good conversations, and I absolutely commend you on the game you've played. It was A1.
BECKY
Becky was cool as a person, but there was a lot she was keeping from me, that other people had no problems telling me. So when that started happening, my trust in her dropped. That was it, really. Past that there is no ill will towards her from me.
JAMES
James james james james james. You're really good at competitions, and you've had a really rough game. I think you were nominated like five times? You have to talk more, man. Bring actual conversations to the table, throw in your opinion on something not game related every once in awhile, I think if you would've given everyone a chance to get to know YOU. You would've had a much easier ride.
KATHY
As a player, I have nothing but respect for you. But you quit, c'mon. i know you deleted your account so you probably won't even see this, but genuinely, good game.
HOWARD
Howard's my boy. I know we left on bad terms (like how I left on bad terms with everybody). I think you played the best game here to be honest. And if you hadn't thrown me to the wolves so much that week, you would've stayed and still had my trust 100%. Because i started working with Kelsey a few weeks prior, when you told her I needed to go up. She immediately showed me, and I defended you, but then you kept saying things and throwing me under the bus, which I get, you were just panicked and trying to save yourself. If I would've fought to keep you, I would've increased the size of my target until I was gone. It was absolutely nothing personal, but there was nothing I could do. It would've been 2-1 if I kept you, and I would've showed distrust with the other side of the house.
CASSANDRA
I love that we hated each other. I can't say too much because we didn't talk much aside from trying to be friendly to each other's faces. But you were cool.
ARLIE
Alright, here we go. As a person, I like you. As a player, you didn't do much. I think you can get pushy sometimes, and it comes off kind of annoying. I understand you were probably loyal to me and Shelli and Howard and Liz, but everyone had their own agendas, and when Kelsey outed the Slash and BB17 alliance, we broke off. I know you think we didn't, but we did. I especially broke off for a bit. I started talking to Howard again, and me and Shelli had a few rough weeks when she would win HOH and me and her would get into fights about loyalty. But we never patched it up. I know you tried, but I had no reason to do that. By then I was working with Kelsey and Shelli, and we were dedicated to a final three of people who made moves in the game, and I felt Howard would've taken you or Cass (well, cass, because if howard stayed, you would've left), and I felt confident Shelli and Kelsey and I would be loyal to each other through the final three. I like you, man. But as for the game, we were just in two different places.
SHELLI / KELSEY
I was unsure about both of you in the beginning of the game. Kelsey because like Naeha, you were on the other side of the house, Shelli because I didn't know quite what to make of you yet. Through the season we've all bonded and I'm glad that we did. You two are equally awesome in different ways, and i'm glad that it was us three in the finals.
