Week 7

[mark]

Wow somehow we are on to week 7 and both Cody and I are still here. It really feels like if one of us or Sarah doesn't win HOH we will be right back up on that block where we started last week. That makes this challenge all the more nerve-wracking because it's really hard to tell how well someone could even do guessing quotes from the evicted players.

David tried throwing Austin and Porsche of being a pair. It may very well be true but I was wary of them anyway so it didn't change my opinion of them. It changed my opinion of David, though. He was so quick to sell them out even just under the possibility that I could be HoH. I told Austin about it; one, I wanted to see who the rumor would spread to, and two, to try to curry favor with him and make him be upset with David. He was certainly mad about David's words when I talked to him, but I don't expect him to be pledging his undying loyalty to me anytime soon.

Porsche and I continue to talk and get along well. When it comes to the game, she's fake as hell, but she easy to get a hold of and pleasant to talk to about general things. I've been thinking about trying to take Porsche to the Final 2 because I think other people don't see her as genuine and she's not really performing in the challenges. It would be somewhat difficult, but I think it's an option I can keep open.

I'd like to see Louise go this week, but I may be the only one. Louise isn't close to me at all and she certainly would evict me if I was on the block.

Just spoke to Austin. It sounds like he's going to nominate Cody and Sarah. This could be pretty good for my survival in the game, it means that while he knows he needs to evict one of us this week, I'm most favored to him. If I'm on the block at the end of the week, having Austin's support means that I only need two other votes to stay in the game. If Porsche has my back then I only need one other supporter, and hey, I may not even face the vote at all.

Good luck Marky Mark.....

I guess my social game isn't COMPLETELY useless. Fort he first time in awhile I get to see my key pulled from the box!

Louise won the veto, which is slightly unnerving for me. This whole game she has spoken about how she likes Cody. Would she use it on him? I should be happy about Cody being possibly Vetoed, but who goes up in his place? The majority of the game will root for me to go up, however, Austin has told me explicitly that he is not going to nominate me. If he's to be trusted, things could get very interesting.

Well shit, another week where I just can't catch a break. It's become abundantly clear that no one wants to take a chance on me this season. I think I would have been evicted any week that I stayed on the block since jury. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong with everyone.

My plan to stay is to elevate Sarah. If I can make her look really good, maybe it'll make people see me as less of a threat. I made a post saying that Sarah is amazing and that she'll have an easier time than I will in the game. I then talked to Austin and Louise. I don't think I have any shot in staying unless they're supportive. Austin, I think it kind of worked, but I had an awful conversation with Louise. Aside from that, it's been radio silence. The truth of people's feelings about me are revealed, they're all fine with letting me go.

I'll hold out hope that I'll get an IM before the deadline, but it's looking like curtains, CURTAINS!
