My most important and critical conversation of the game. Given how well this worked, I should just try to work the HoH every week, but for some reason, I don't think the others are as easy to persuade as Nina is.

spanellers1: hi nina, congrats on HoH
Ninas A Cal Away: heyy!
Ninas A Cal Away: thanx :-D
spanellers1: i just got back from chicago like an hour ago and the very first thing i did was check results
spanellers1: so close yet so far, lol
Ninas A Cal Away: lol
Ninas A Cal Away: i was surprised i won
Ninas A Cal Away: hehe
spanellers1: you are america's sweetheart... nearly unanimously
spanellers1: so, what have you been up to in the past weeks?
Ninas A Cal Away: lol yeah that was cool to win
Ninas A Cal Away: nothing reallii..just enjoying summer
Ninas A Cal Away: lol
spanellers1: *sigh* it appears we are the only parisians remaining while madrid and berlin still have 3 intact
Ninas A Cal Away: oh i know :-\
Ninas A Cal Away: im trying to think what to do..hmm..
Ninas A Cal Away: stephen nominated me last tyme so im thinking about him
spanellers1: better you make the decision than me, if i was in your shoes, i would be baffled
spanellers1: well, if you know what objective you have for the week (like take one person out of the two leading houses, or eliminate a certain specific person) i can play with the numbers to figure out what noms you'd need to make, or what houses they'd need to come from
Ninas A Cal Away: i lyk the idea of making sure that someone from the houses that still have 3 ppl leave
Ninas A Cal Away: so who was all from berlin again?
spanellers1: hmm, let me think
Ninas A Cal Away: theres jordan..
Ninas A Cal Away: alex
Ninas A Cal Away: and one more..hmm
spanellers1: if you want one person from both of those houses gone, you would need to put up from berlin and one from madrid
spanellers1: then the third would either be a second from berlin, a second from madrid, me, or the one from rome
Ninas A Cal Away: yeah, im just trying to remember who is from each house
Ninas A Cal Away: lol
spanellers1: i know where to find it, one sec
Ninas A Cal Away: kk :-)
spanellers1: Alex (Madrid)
Jay (Berlin)
JD (Rome)
Joe (Berlin)
Jon (Paris)
Jordan (Berlin)
Kevin (Rome)
Nina (Paris)
Richie (Rome)
Ryan (Paris)
Stephen (Madrid)
Veronica (Madrid)
spanellers1: madrid: alex, stephen, veronica
berlin: jay,joe, jordan (the three Js, lol)
paris: you & me
rome: kevin
Ninas A Cal Away: lmao thank uu
Ninas A Cal Away: what do you think of veronica?
Ninas A Cal Away: i dont know much about her
spanellers1: she's in a game that i'm just starting... she seems like a ticking time bomb, eventually, she'll self destruct
spanellers1: putting her up is like wasting a nomination
Ninas A Cal Away: yeah, and she seems inactive and non-threatening
spanellers1: i certainly second that
spanellers1: well, if you put 2 people up from madrid/berlin and 1 up from the other, the votes would probably look like this
spanellers1: the two from the house with 1 person on the block would band together to vote out one player from the opposing house
spanellers1: then, the one non-nominated player from the house with 2 on the block would vote for the person from the other house who is nominated
spanellers1: if needed, i could vote the same way to assure that one person from both madrid and berlin go home
spanellers1: and in this case, kevin from rome's vote won't matter
Ninas A Cal Away: ooooh yeah that makes sense..
Ninas A Cal Away: did you read the thing val posted about veto?
Ninas A Cal Away: that worries me..i want to make sure no one i nominate has enough money to buy the veto or w/e
spanellers1: or, if you nominate someone who can buy the veto, you would be taking their veto power away and wasting their money
spanellers1: hm, that isn't a good idea, take that back
Ninas A Cal Away: true. but then they are safe and pissed at me
Ninas A Cal Away: lol
spanellers1: exactly what i just considered, lol
Ninas A Cal Away: lmaoo
Ninas A Cal Away: so if i nominate w/ ur plann..who from those rooms do you think i should put up?
Ninas A Cal Away: i want to put up stephen.
spanellers1: if you put up stephen, i think he'll go
spanellers1: no questions asked
Ninas A Cal Away: and i like jordan..but it seems EVERYONE likes him..which makes me worry that hes a huge threat
spanellers1: well, if you only nominate stephen from his house, that takes power away from you
spanellers1: because stephen will go regardless then you can't control which of the other two leaves
spanellers1: if you put 2 people up from madrid, then stephen is assured to go and so is the person that you nominate from berlin
spanellers1: this way, you practically singlehandedly control this week's evictions minus veto
Ninas A Cal Away: what if i did stephen and then 2 from berlin?
Ninas A Cal Away: do you think things would go the same
spanellers1: stephen would leave, but you couldn't control which of the two from berlin leaves
Ninas A Cal Away: hmmm..
spanellers1: if you put up someone from madrid beside stephen, stephen will go
spanellers1: then, whoever you nominate from berlin will go as well
Ninas A Cal Away: oooh yeah..
Ninas A Cal Away: gawd this is confusing
Ninas A Cal Away: other than stephen in madrid is veronica..
Ninas A Cal Away: and veronica has enuff money to buy veto so that wont work
Ninas A Cal Away: that leaves alex? i think
spanellers1: yup
spanellers1: buit there's another problem
spanellers1: everyone from berlin has enough to buy veto
Ninas A Cal Away: omg..lol
Ninas A Cal Away: ahhh
spanellers1: hm, here's a thought
spanellers1: nominate everyone from madrid
spanellers1: veronica will veto herself
spanellers1: then you can replace her with one person from berlin that you want to see go
spanellers1: and it's too late for them to buy veto
spanellers1: so they will definitely go
Ninas A Cal Away: oooh that makes sense
spanellers1: and you don't need to worry about veronica coming back at you since she'll never win HoH
spanellers1: and then she won't have enough money for veto
Ninas A Cal Away: kk that'll work
spanellers1: we just need to be sure that veronica buys veto
Ninas A Cal Away: who do you think from berlin should go up?
Ninas A Cal Away: i talk to jordan most..but he seems lyk a huge threat at the same time
spanellers1: let's see what the group said about each of them, lol
Ninas A Cal Away: but im worried if i nominate him that he wont go..and then im screwed cuz hes strong
Ninas A Cal Away: cuz he has lots of friends
Ninas A Cal Away: lol
spanellers1: if you say in your veto nominate speech that you are nominating jordan because he has a lot of friends, i think most people will catch on
spanellers1: if he is friends with everyone, then he really doesn't have anyone's back
Ninas A Cal Away: well i guess we can worry about that once veronica vetoes
Ninas A Cal Away: if she does
spanellers1: also, jordan almost has enough euros to buy 2 vetoes
spanellers1: but he won't buy them since he isnt on the initial nominations
Ninas A Cal Away: i think if i stress the fact that he is such a threat people will catch on..
Ninas A Cal Away: ill just be lyk..everyone lyks u, u have a lot of money, and ppl will want him out then
Ninas A Cal Away: lol
spanellers1: and they will certainly vote him out
spanellers1: i'll be willing to vote for him if you want me to, and as long as either kevin or veronica do as well, he's gone and so is stephen
Ninas A Cal Away: kevin im'ed me right before he left and he said lyk *i dont want to pressure you but look at how many people lyk jordan and think about it*
Ninas A Cal Away: so i think he would want jordan out
spanellers1: 2 votes jordan, he's definitely gone
spanellers1: that leaves veronica, joe, and jay
spanellers1: joe and jay will band together as players from berlin to kick off stephen over alex
spanellers1: so stephen goes and jordan goes too
Ninas A Cal Away: yeah
Ninas A Cal Away: do you think they would vote out stephen?
Ninas A Cal Away: i hope so
spanellers1: they would, you werent at the last live HoH, but he was being a cocky douche
Ninas A Cal Away: hehe
Ninas A Cal Away: if i dont nominate you and stuff can you not nominate me if u win a HoH? :-)
spanellers1: he was voted least trustworthy
spanellers1: of course
Ninas A Cal Away: mk
Ninas A Cal Away: i lyk this plan tho
spanellers1: you're the only person that i can actually trust
Ninas A Cal Away: yeah, same
Ninas A Cal Away: i talked to jordan earlier
spanellers1: ol, stephen was also voted to be the person wanted out next
spanellers1: and the villian
Ninas A Cal Away: yeah, so then ppl will prob want him out then
spanellers1: what was jordan saying earlier?
Ninas A Cal Away: RaptorJ56: Veronica really thinks she is going to be nominated, and she told me to talk to you about it
Ninas A Cal Away: so apparently they are close
spanellers1: so taking jordan out will collapse that alliance
Ninas A Cal Away: yup, def.
Ninas A Cal Away: i hope alex will understand hes just a pon
Ninas A Cal Away: pawn
Ninas A Cal Away: or w/e its called
Ninas A Cal Away: lol
spanellers1: yeah, i think so, i doubt he'll even be mad once he sees how it plays out, he won't get any votes
spanellers1: and even if veronica is mad, she won't win HoH, so you won't have anyone mad at you after all of this and you manage to get what you want! what a perfect week to be HoH!
Ninas A Cal Away: yay!
Ninas A Cal Away: lol
Ninas A Cal Away: i tohught about kevin..but he has no one in this game so hes not a threat at all
spanellers1: there are bigger fish to fry :-P
spanellers1: alright, i best be off to bed
Ninas A Cal Away: lol exactlyyy
Ninas A Cal Away: mmk
Ninas A Cal Away: thanks for helping me out :-)
spanellers1: no problem, if i was HoH, i would certainly need the help, so i just pondered on that

DSOTM2308: Nina will be exterminated
spanellers1: ah, the noms... gosh, how biased as that,vall three from your house
DSOTM2308: See
DSOTM2308: im glad someone saw it my way
DSOTM2308: She is a bitch
DSOTM2308: look at this message she sent me
DSOTM2308: Heyyy..

I just wanted to let you know what's going on. I've tossed lyk 50 scenarios thru my head of how I could get who I wanted on the block, and I feel the best way to get there is thru nominating you. I made sure you have enough money to buy the veto, so you should be okay as long as you do that. I apologize that it forces you to spend your money, but we haven't got to know each other that well so I felt this was best for me. But I really did lyk you when we talked last night so I hope that with this situation you will be safe. I don't want you to be on the block, I want someone else, but if I put them up they will buy the veto and save themself. So this way I can put them up if you buy veto and they wont have the opportunity to buy it.

Just wanted to let yo know what was happening & I hope you can understand!

THE PLAN IS SCREWED! VERONICA IS AN IDIOT! ALEX HAS NO TRUST IN NINA! IT WAS WORKED OUT PERFECTLY AND SCREWED!

[Ryan]

spanellers1: what are you talking about?
RaptorJ56: what? oh yeah Veronica kind of is crazy I think
spanellers1: she;s in a game of mine
spanellers1: crazy is quite a passive term
RaptorJ56: yes
RaptorJ56: what do you think of veronica?
spanellers1: she's fun to talk to, just a lot of randomness, lol
RaptorJ56: lol
spanellers1: i really dont have a problem with her personally
RaptorJ56: she isn't bad I just think she is crazy
RaptorJ56: and she talked to me like I had made an alliance with her, when I hadn't
spanellers1: lol
RaptorJ56: she was like, so you have my back...I was like, yeah...
spanellers1: lol
RaptorJ56: it was a strange moment
spanellers1: lmao!
RaptorJ56: so how was the hosting tonight lol
spanellers1: a bit hectic
spanellers1: hosting two games that normally have meetings the same night 1 hour apart isnt as easy as you'd think :-P
RaptorJ56: I would think it would be hard lol
spanellers1: you'd be right, even when everything is pre-prepared
spanellers1: can you invite me back to the chat
RaptorJ56: yeah
spanellers1: my aim kicked me off and isnt letting me in
RaptorJ56: there you go
spanellers1: omg...
RaptorJ56: what?
spanellers1: i'm cleaning out my IM windows from the challenge and here's what i just found veronica sent me:
spanellers1: DSOTM2308: Btw the person she is nominating inplace of me is Jordan
spanellers1: she was obviously mistaken that she was getting off the block
RaptorJ56: yeah
spanellers1: but, do you think nina told her who was going on the block?
spanellers1: although i think you'd be safe, i really dont want to see you on the block
RaptorJ56: I doubt it, Veronica really doesn't like her, so I doubt Nina would say anything like that to her
spanellers1: lol, true
RaptorJ56: I mean, she did kind of verbally abuse her on the forum
spanellers1: lmao! yes yes
RaptorJ56: lmao
RaptorJ56: I hope I would be safe though
spanellers1: the only way that she doesnt nominate either me or you would be jay, joe, or kevin
RaptorJ56: she might go for Jay, but I don't know what she's going to do
RaptorJ56: I wish she'd get on
spanellers1: geez, is val posting a lot or what?
RaptorJ56: I know
RaptorJ56: it is like refresh over and over again and nothing

[Ryan]

This sucks. Veronica is a moron. I wish she'd have been vetoed. It wouldm make the plan work perfectly. But noooooooooooooooooooooooo.

So, if Veronica is assured to go, we need to take out someone from the other team - Jordan. This saddens me, I like Jordan, however, there are a few things that worry me.

Firstly, Jordan seemed to have knowledge of the fact that Veronica is insane and I call her that. Then, I believe Veronica and Jordan have a secret alliance via Nina. Therefore, one will avenge the other's eviction. So, it would be great if Jordan and Veronica left. Stephen is way too much of a threat already, I'm sure he'll be doomed in due time.

So, for my own safety and for the fact that popularity and insanity are not always positive qualities:

I vote to evict JORDAN.

[Ryan]

DSOTM2308: plz tell me you never voted me out
spanellers1: why? are you worried about going?
DSOTM2308: Joe just blantently said he voted me out
DSOTM2308: ospring87: not really
spanellers1: wow
DSOTM2308: he said yeah I voted you out
DSOTM2308: ugh
spanellers1: well, if anyone else votes you out, you're gone for sure :-\
spanellers1: it only takes 2/5 votes
DSOTM2308: IKevin voted me
DSOTM2308: its over
spanellers1: wow, that sucks
spanellers1: btw, did you submit the mystery challenge yet?
DSOTM2308: no I told you I quit
spanellers1: but you played yesterday
spanellers1: are you just not trying to win
spanellers1: sgnhj
spanellers1: sorry, that was my cousin
DSOTM2308: Btw joe, kevin and Nina have an alliance
spanellers1: seriously? how did you find this out?
DSOTM2308: Joe and Kevin voted me out. And kevin said earlyer that he would talk to nina if there was a tie
DSOTM2308: therefor it is confirmed that they have an alliance
spanellers1: woah, three people in a game of seven left

[Ryan]

Alright, allow me to recap the events of this round in a few parts since I have to go back and forth from things that I need to do.

Well, I managed to sway Nina to nominate the people that I wanted her to. The plan was for one person from one house and two from the other dominate house to go on the block. Using logic in voting, I figured the two from the group with 1 person nominated would gang up on one of the other ones. Then, I could vote along with Kevin for the individual nominated house to get out. Did that come out right?

[Ryan]

I enjoyed Nina being HoH, I make all of the moves, she takes all of the slack. I'd rather have Nina win HoH than myself! I'm happy with the nominations and I am hoping to God that Veronica will veto herself off the block.

[Ryan]

A misunderstanding in the rules caused Alex to be vetoed off instead. It doesn't matter sicne he was a pawn anyways. I am only hoping that Stephen will go along with the replacement nominee - Jordan. Veronica is driving people mad though, so I think she'll get two votes which will send you packing. That leaves me with a choice between the two people that I wanted to see eliminated - Jordan and Stephen. Both of them have their strategies layed out in front of the group which means that could each be leaving soon anyways. I know there is already one vote for Jordan (Kevin), and I'd assume that Jay would vote for Stephen since they are the two self-proclaimed manipulators. Now, who do I want out of the game...?
