Veronica went - expected. Jordan went - makes me happy yet sad. What needed to be done was done. Now, there are only seven players left. Two Berlin. Two Madrid. Two Paris. One Rome.
Needless to say, Kevin is safe, and I believe he also has a secret alliance with Nina. I want Berlin annihilated next. They have too much cash, we need them both on the block, one veto is used, the other player goes. It would be sensible for one of them to buy the veto prior to nominations.
However, I do not want to put them on the block. Someone else can for me. Please and thank you. But I doubt I can work my persuasion on anyone as easily as I did on Nina. If Kevin wins HoH, I could get Nina to pull strings with him. Jay and Stephen the master manipulators have their own agendas which I am unaware of, so I don't want them to win HoH. Jay and I talk, but not enough to make me feel safe especially after comparing him to Jordan. Stephen might nominate Nina and she has enough animosity towards her to get out. I want her to stay a bit longer. Joe is a wild card, I talk with him a bit, but still not enough for safety. Last is Alex M. who was friends with Nina and I think he might go after me for lack of a better candidate.
So, my target this week is either Joe or Jay since their bank accounts are off the roof. Stephen can be saved for next week. Alex M. and Kevin could listen to Nina, and if Jay wins HoH I think I'm safe. Same with Joe and Stephen since he has bigger fish to fry. That leaves me safe with everyone who can win HoH, however, I doubt any of this safety will prove true sicne I am naive and people are playing this game harder than I am.
I just considered this, Nina has alliances with Kevin and Alex, that gives her more power than I want her to have. However, I don't want to lose my only Paris partner, so either Alex M. or Kevin must perish.
Looking farther ahead to final two, I don't know who I can beat. Nin a will have two votes from Alex & Kevin but lose votes from Jordan and Veronica. I might get Jay's vote and possibly Stephen's so that might clear me in one scenario.
Stephen and Jay have played harder than me and I don't think hatred towards them is at large, so I don't want them in final two with me. Kevin is the underdog - NO. Joe is respected - NO. Alex is... hmmm... another good candidate. Although he'll get the votes of Kevin and Nina, I don't know what other votes he'll receive.
Therefore, I want to keep Alex and Nina in the game while eliminating their ally - Kevin.
My Inaccurate Hit List:
Kevin - Underdog, three-way alliance
Jay - Bank account, strategist

I need to decide between Nina and Alex here since bringing them both to the final four would cause one of these situations:
They are HoH, they get to vote out the fourth putting me in final three with both of them
I am HoH and in order to not screw them over, I must give one of them voting power meaning I will be in the final three with them.
The fourth is HoH and one of them gets voting power - I'm out.
The fourth is HoH and I have voting power, I have to screw one of them.
None of these sound that good, So I need to get rid of one of them here.

Joe - Too liked
Stephen - Strategist, I'm surprised I'm letting him make final three but Joe is a bigger F2 threat than Stephen, I think. I might reconsider these two.
Onto HoH, I'd like to win it at F3, F4, and F6. This is doubtful, but what the hell!
