The Basic Facts:
HoH: James
Original nominees: George and Will
PoV winner: George
PoV meeting results: George used the PoV on himself, James then replaced George with Jase
Eviction results: Jase was evicted by a vote of 9-0.
General overview of the week: James was not afraid to let the whole house know his thoughts about “Big Brother,” about how “it wasn’t a team game and how he was going to play

the game for himself.” His original nominees were “Chicken” George, a “floater,” and Will, a member of “Chill Town.” With such polar opposite nominations, it was almost impossible to predict where James’ mind was. The Power of Veto competition could only be summarized in one word: unbelievable. The chicken man managed to pull out a win by completing a series of unpleasant tasks, the most notable one being a decision, made by him, to be on slop for 60 days. At the veto ceremony, while Will gave a “hate” speech to his fellow house guests, while George gave a heartfelt monologue as he vetoed his own nomination. James replaced George with Jase, and he didn’t take a liking to that decision to say the least.
Once Jase was on the block, his fate was sealed. Not even one person voted to keep him in the game and was evicted by a unanimous 9-0 vote.
Jase-Evicted
Analysis of overall strategy: This was probably one of the lighter weeks in terms of strategic successes, the only one being Will’s “hate” speech. To quote Will, “he made his target so huge, that it became practically invisible.” By giving that speech, Will figured that his fellow house guests would start to think of him as less of a threat, which would allow him to start spreading his seeds later on in the game, and for the most part, he was correct. One minor miscalculation in strategy this week (and I use the word “minor” lightly,) was Jase’s outburst before the veto ceremony. It was plain stupid on his part, and accomplished nothing by throwing his fit.
Further analysis of select house guests: James: It wasn’t the smartest move for James to put Jase as a replacement nominee. Since that Will was already on the block, he should have nominated Mike so he would guarantee himself that one of “Chill Town’s” members would be going home this week.
"Chicken" George
“Chicken” George: As a result of his flawless effort and success at the veto competition, he certainly earned respect from his fellow house guests. He showed his competition how badly he wanted to be in the “Big Brother House.”
“Chill Town”: How they dodged this bullet is simply beyond me. James had the chance of a lifetime to eliminate one of its members, yet James didn’t take the prime opportunity. It’s ironic because later down the road, “Chill Town” will become directly responsable for James’ eviction.
“S-6″: While starting to separate, it is still a solid alliance. They, surprisingly, haven’t begun to turn on each other. (At least not yet, but you will see one of them “leave” the alliance next week.)
