Kaysar- Second HoH of the Season
General overview of the weeks’ events: On Day 11, Kaysar became the second HoH of the season thus, maintaining the “‘S-6′ Dynasty.” Immediately following his victory, Kaysar was approached by “Chill Town,” and together, they came to an armistice agreement. promised to nominate two “floaters” for eviction if ”Chill Town” promised to nominate “floaters” as well if they were to ever win HoH. He followed through with his promise and nominated Nakomis and Diane for eviction. (It is argued that he chose these particular ”floaters” because they voted against ”S-6′s” wishes when they voted to evict Danielle as opposed to Alison at the first eviction ceremony.)

Erika later won the Power of Veto; some of “S-6″ urged her to use it so that one of the shady “Chill Town” members could be nominated in their place. However, she opted not to use the PoV, and caused the original nominations to remain the same. She later confessed in the Diary Room that she “didn’t want to stir the pot,” thus exemplifying her “floater” status in the house because of her spineless decision. On Day 18, due to her reputation from “Big Brother 5,” Nakomis was evicted from the house by a vote of 8-2.
Analysis of overall Strategies: First poor decision made this week was Kaysar’s nominations, it was far too early in the game to go after “floaters.” “Chill Town” was an immediate threat that Kaysar should have taken care of, but he decided not to, and instead opted to make an armistice with them. Erika’s decision not to use the veto was an interesting one; if she did use the PoV, then not only would she have made a friend in Nakomis and/or Diane, but she would have also made some friends in “S-6,” because some of its members actually wanted to backdoor either Mike or Will with the veto. It was a rather funny transition this week to see Danielle become almost silent this week in terms of scheming, in fact, she didn’t throw one “S-6″ member under the bus, I suppose she learned her lesson.
Further Analysis of Select House guests:
Kaysar: Overall, he was a relatively weak HoH. He had no backbone and was too afraid to make the moves that had greater risk, but also yielded fantastic rewards if his strategy to go about it was successful.
Marcellas: He was starting to play the game this week; which is good because it was getting boring seeing only 8 or so people play the game out of 13. He was strongly in favor of ”Chill Town” getting back-doored.
“S-6″: It is important to note that their alliance started to fracture ever so slightly this week. There was debate over who should have been nominated. Kaysar was fixated on getting rid of “floaters” while the rest of his alliance wanted to get rid of “Chill Town.”
Danielle: It was funny seeing her completely transform this week. She almost didn’t say a word throughout the entire week, I suppose she learned her lesson.
“Chill Town”: The alliance is doing particularly strong considering how big of a threat they are to the house. If left un checked this alliance will become unstoppable soon enough.
