Extra Money Tasks

BBQ $s up for grabs: $3 Task: In your Diary Room, post 100+ words about what you read tonight from our nominees and the perceived alliances in the game. Deadline: July 4th @ 10:22am EST (9 hours)

Well, first of all, I think it really made it clear that Tinashe and Chloe are really aligned with each other in the game.
I mean it's been very obvious for a long time, especially since the chain comp...
But tonight seriously made it much clearer that they are in fact working together very closely in this game.
I'm not sure what to say about the "perceived alliance" because I AM in that alliance myself with KeKe, Carter and Layla lol 
But umm, all I can say is that I definitely made the right decision in dropping out early in the chain competition
Yes, participating in that comp still might've put a target on my back due to Penny picking me, but had I stayed longer, I would've been associated with KeKe, Carter and Layla as well
But I was able to avoid that, and even though you could say it was my alliance that kinda got exposed tonight, my name was not mentioned. 
So that's all that matters to me. As long as the attention isn't on me, I don't really care
Although I'm definitely loyal to Carter. But to no one else.

BBQ $s up for grabs: $5



Task: In your Diary Room, do like you did a few days ago when you ranked the 29 remaining Houseguests from who you trust most to least with a reason why. This time you only have 19 Houseguests to do, but I'm sure lots has changed since you did the last one.


Deadline: July 7th @ 10:00am EST (so you have a little over 7 hours.)

Okay, so I was just planning on doing a cast assessment post so this is perfect lol
I'm gonna rank them and also assess them as players too.

1. Carter
We just clicked right away, and we completely trust each other 100%.
When I talk to her, I don't have to filter myself.
I love that she's also part of the LGBTQ+ community too. 
That definitely strengths our bond as well.
As a player, I think she is dominant as well.
She's a lot more straight-forward and bold as a player, and I'm the opposite so we complement each other so well.
She probably has the best social game in the house along with Sandra, and she is always in the know.
She is my primary information source, and I could not play this game without her.
She is the type of player who likes to have control and lead the pack, I believe.
And I'm the exact opposite, my goal is always to blend into the background.
One of the top contenders for 3K.

2. Layla Keating
Yes, our relationship has been a little rocky.
But in the past couple of days, I feel like I've been successful in connecting with her on a personal level and bonding with her.
We've both been called out by nominees now, so that's something that we have in common, and I can use that to build a connection with her.
She is close with Carter, so that automatically makes her someone that I have to work with in this game to further myself.
On a personal level, we really do get along.
As a player, I don't think she's shown her true potential yet, but clearly she has a great social game because 5 people named her as someone they want to go to final 2 with.
That is not easy to do, and that just proves how dominant she is as a social player.

3. KeKe Palmer
We haven't talked that much, and we don't have that strong of a connection, but who we're aligned with makes her someone I have to trust.
She's also close with Layla and Carter, as am I. So that makes her someone who I have to work with.
I believe she's a well-rounded player who's good at comps, and also has a great social game.

4. Marianne Williamson
She's not in the BGC, but I like her and trust her.
One of the reasons is because she's a progressive female politician, just like me lmao
But other than that, I think she's a smart player as well.
I think she's well integrated into the house, despite what the chain comp showed.

5. Billie Eilish
I think she's one of the most under-the-radar players in this house right now.
Her name has not been mentioned by anyone.
She has not won any competitions, and she hasn't been nominated either.
I think she's been doing a very good job blending into the background, and I don't see her becoming a target anytime soon.
Players like her usually show their true colors in the second half of the season and start playing more aggressively, or just end up becoming coasters.
I'm not sure who she is as a player yet.

6. Audrey Horne
She's obviously very good at comps, and not trying to hide that.
As a player, I think she's well-rounded.
She hasn't made a lot of effort to personally connect with me tho, and I feel like she's the type of player to value quantity over quality.
Although I definitely don't think she's the best player in the house, I could see someone like her winning the game.

7. Daphne Blake
Daphne and I are in very similar positions in the game right now.
We both have connections with a lot of people, were playing both sides and we kinda got exposed by Michael.
She's definitely a very well-rounded player as well, but her problem is that she makes it too obvious that she's a self-interested player.
Also one of the top contenders for 3K as well, I could see her taking it.

8. Megan Fox
I don't really trust her that much because of what Carter told me.
I don't think she's like this strategic mastermind, just really messy lmao
Like, the way that she plays the game is just very chaotic for no reason.
I like her a lot on a personal level though, but I see her as someone who could end up becoming a detriment to my game.
I have to thank her for creating the BGC and including me in it tho lmao

9. Carly Incontro
Despite what happened with Sov6, I actually like her a lot.
If she survives the next couple of rounds, I could see her becoming someone I can keep in my back pocket.
I don't think she's that bad of a player either, I think she just failed to connect with the players who are running the game.
She's definitely not a bad player like Michael and Penny were.
I don't think she has anywhere else to go after losing Chloe, Tinashe, Michael and Penny.
So that's why I trust her just a little bit.

10. Aang
I think we've been on the same page most of the times in this game, and that's the only reason why I trust him.
I don't feel a strong personal connection with him or anything, but we do talk consistently.
He could turn into a real contender, we'll see.

11. Haleigh Broucher
I don't really trust her, but just like Carly, I don't think she has anywhere else to go at this point. 
Unlike Chloe and Tinashe who were HORRIBLE players, Haleigh is actually pretty good.
She clearly has a solid social game, and that's why she was able to avoid getting any eviction votes tonight.
If she survives the next couple of rounds, I could see her becoming someone who no one has incentives to take out.
Despite being in a flop alliance early on, I could see her making it far and becoming a real contender.

12. Percy Jackson 
Again, I don't think he has anywhere else to go at this point.
I don't really trust him anymore because Michael might've told him not to trust me.
But I still find him more trustworthy than some other people in this house.

13. Nottie Salton
It's difficult to say if I trust him or not because he doesn't talk much, and he's not that active.
I don't think he's coming after me anytime soon tho.

14. Susie Carmichael
I don't know much about her, but my read on her doesn't tell me she's a shady player.

15. Keesha Smith
We do talk, and she is likable.
The problem is that most of the times, she just goes with what the house does.
Much like Billie, I think she's completely blending into the background at this point.
I don't see anyone targeting her anytime soon, so she's going far for sure.
She's one of the most unthreatening people in this house, but she's definitely not with me.
She's obviously got the social part of this game down, but let's see if she's any good at comps.

16. Celine Dion
We don't really talk much, so I just don't know where her head is at.

17. Blair Waldorf
Same with her. I find her very hard to talk to.
Whenever I try to DM her, the conversation just doesn't go anywhere.
I feel like she just has no personality lol

18. Tyler Durden
Clearly one of the top contenders for the crown, as Michael accurately pointed out.
Michael was a dumb player in terms what he chose to do, but he was very intuitive.
He's with Sandra, obviously.
I feel like he's the kind of player who's able to avoid being targeted while winning comps.
I also don't like that he ignores my PMs sometimes lol
He's been with the BGC this whole time, but that's only because we had a common enemy in Chloe/Tinashe/Haleigh and Michael/Penny.
Now that Chloe, Tinashe, Michael and Penny are all gone, it's possible that he could try to come after us, either directly or indirectly.

19. Sandra Kaluiokalani
She clearly has the best social game in the house, hands down. Even better than Carter.
If someone doesn't take care of her, she's gonna win this whole thing.
She knows every little thing that's going on in this house, and she uses that to her advantage.
She is such a dominant social presence in this house, and I find her very threatening.
I need to take her out at some point, but I'm not sure how yet.
Maybe Carter could be the one to do that, maybe Layla, or maybe I'll have to do it myself.
I really like her on a personal level tho, like she's HILARIOUS.
She has a way of talking to people and making you comfortable.

BBQ $s up for grabs: $5




Task: In your Diary Room, rank your private rooms from the one you feel most loyal to the one you feel least loyal to and include at least one little sentence on why




Deadline: Wednesday, July 8th @ 11:00am (7 hours)

1. Neon Twins 
Cuz it's with Carter <3

2. Laylalex
I trust her.

3. The Bad Girls Club
Megan and KeKe left, but I'm hoping we can still trust each other somewhat.

4. Good Vibes 
I mean I don't really trust them.

5. Sov 6
The alliance is dead after what Michael did.

6. Two Long Named Queens
I don't trust Sandra.

7. The Outsiders
This isn't even an alliance...

8. Catch 22
I mean lmao It's all of us.

Arisa Cox

Oh Arisa, LOTS has changed, you don't even know!!!

1. Carter
My good sis 
Honestly, she and I just get along so well.
I think we just complement each other as players so well.
She's the one who's on the front, talking to people and gathering info, leading the pack.
I'm the calm, level-headed one who's in the back and supporting her.
The CONTROL she has over the house is unmatched.
She's the yin to my yang.

2. Layla Keating
In the past couple of weeks, we've really bonded on a personal level.
Now we 100% trust each other, and I'm proud of what we've achieved.
It's unfortunate that she has such a huge target on her back, but I believe she is a very good player.
She can be a little messy sometimes tho, not gonna lie. But it's all good.

3. Tyler Durden
We don't really connect with each other on a personal level, but I do trust him on a game level.
His closest allies are my closest allies, so our interest just aligned in the game, and I think he knows that.
He's very good at comps, so it feels good to have someone like him on my side.

4. Audrey Horne
Apparently Layla doesn't trust her, but I don't see her that way.
Based on my time in the house so far, I don't think she's a shady player at all.
Another comp beast that I'm glad to have on my side.

5. Billie Eilish
We don't really have that strong of a connection or anything, but she's just... Harmless. That's the word I'd use to describe her.
I don't know if she's been throwing comps like me or not, but as far as her gameplay goes, I don't think she's playing dirty at all.
She's almost reminiscent of like... Daniele from last season?
She doesn't do much, but she's likable and harmless in the game.

6. Daphne Blake
Definitely one of the top contenders for 3K.
I believe she's a very well-rounded player who has it all.
Something about her reminds me so much of Shelli from last season...
Her gameplay, her personality... Maybe they're the same person, I don't know.

7. Carly Incontro
I actually like her a lot. I find her personality to be really bubbly and likable.
And I feel like she's a very honest player, which I like.
When numbers dwindle down more, I want her on my side.
That's why I've been talking to her a lot and trying to build trust with her.
It helps that she's not bad at comps too.

8. Blair Waldorf 
We've actually talked a lot the past couple of weeks, and I think I trust her just a little bit.
I've been emphasizing to her that I'm voting to keep her every time, and hopefully, that's working on her.
At the beginning of this game, I thought she had no personality, but now I'm just finding out she's not that bad to talk with lol

9. Haleigh Broucher
I don't necessarily trust her, but I do like her.
She has a great social game, and that's how she's been able to survive despite being associated with messy players like Chloe and Alycia early on in the game.
I don't know if she's been throwing competitions or not, but I absolutely see someone like her being the dark horse of the season and taking 3K.
If she turns it up a notch in the second half of the game, she could make it really far like Liza did in BBQ3! lol
She's someone to watch out for, I think and I need her on my side moving forward.

10. Sandra Kaluiokalani
I mean, I don't trust her after all that she's done... 
But it's like, we've been called out by the same people so many times at this point, our interests kinda do align.
Also, it helps that we like each other on a personal level. 
Things changed, and I don't think she's a threat to my game as of now.

11. Susie Carmichael 
I know that she's in Tyler's Avengers alliance so our interests do align I guess?
It's just that I find it very hard to talk to her.
Whenever I try to talk to her, her responses are just very short and dry.
It's not enough to keep the conversation going.

12. Marianne Williamson
Maybe she was manipulated by someone, but if she could do what she did to Layla and KeKe, then she would do it to me too.
I do think she likes me, and that's good. But I definitely do not trust her.
She is fun to talk to tho, and I do like her on a personal level.

13. Keesha Smith 
We do talk. But our conversations are NEVER substantial.
It's all just superficial, and I can tell she's not really with me.
It's amazing how we talk every day and I still have no idea where her head is at in this game. 
Probably one of the most UTR people in the game, along with Susie and Billie.

14. Celine Dion
Chile... She threw my name out to Tyler, she's a goddamn snake...
I don't trust her one bit, and I want her gone as soon as possible. Girl bye!

Arisa Cox


1. Carter
She's my ride or die. Simple.

2. Audrey
She's always been loyal to me.

3. Tyler
He's solid with me.

4. Billie
I do trust her by default.

5. Keesha
She's not a shady player.

6. Sandra
Not really... But I guess 

7. Blair
She's nice, and she's got bigger fish to fry... She's getting evicted tho.

8. Haleigh
She's not with me.

9. Carly Incontro
I don't think she trusts me, she was with Celine,

10. Daphne
Snake...

Arisa Cox


Well, I've already played this game twice before so this ain't my first rodeo, but with that said I still love this game as much as I loved this game during BBQ1.
Honestly, when I first started playing this game back in BBQ1, I did not like this forum AT ALL
But over time, I've learned to embrace it, and now I love it!
I used to play BB games/ORGs on Discord but now I can't even think about going back to that format anymore...
I mean don't get me wrong, there are definitely some things that kinda suck about this forum (like having to reload to read new posts) but overall this forum is great.
So I can't really think of specific things that I'd add or change.

Oh but one thing that I will say is that... 
I think I requested you to do this in BBQ3, but I think the finale should be live...
As in, I think the jury votes should be revealed one by one to build suspense, instead of revealing them all in just one post.
You've already done this in BBQ3 tho, but I'd like to see this continue in the future!
