Jake I'm honestly not going to go in circles with you about how just because I wound up in the F3, doesn't mean you didn't take actions to get me out of the game.

I literally won the F5 POV against you by a hair. If I hadn't done that I'd have been 5th place.

You're like a shady car salesman trying to pretend he's Jesus.

Also something about Brett's chart feels off. I have to go back to the season and check that.

You did not win the Final 5 POV. I did. You only won one POV, and that was during Week 4.

I am not shady, and I would never 'pretend' to be such a thing. Perhaps you need to relax, take a moment and step back. I don't think the potshots like 'shady car salesman' are going to help your case should Isaac, Crystal, or Amanda win POV. Just take it easy, go clear your head. The game isn't going anywhere, I'm most certainly not going anywhere.

Oh, maybe it was the final 5 HOH? The point is, it came down to one competition.

There's something about how you're talking to me right now that tells me you're more comfortable than you've been when the ENTIRE HOUSE (not just me) was against you back in BB7 and BB8.

I hope this reversal doesn't bring out the worst in you.

Greetings, houseguests!

I wanted to check in to see how everything is going. Congratulations, Jake, on your HOH win! Brendan and Jacob, good luck in the POV ceremony. I want to thank Joe and Brett for all their assistance this week as I finish up my law school finals and get ready to graduate. Very soon, I will be hosting some competitions, and I'm looking forward to it! I can't wait to see what is in store. 17 people is a good amount of players!

With that, good luck, everyone, and I'll see you later this week. (Derek retreats back into the Big Brother Studio's Soundproof Thinking Office, formerly known as the Limbo Room!)

HOH #2: Slippery Buckets



Hello, HouseGuests, and welcome to your second Head of Household competition. For this competition, each of you will have your own thread where you will be racing against the rest of the house to be the first to fill up your bucket. In order to start the challenge, you must create a new thread in your Diary Room titled ‘Name HOH #2’ and make this your first post:



HOH: 0/250

Secret Power: 0/150

Veto Advantage: 0/125



On my go, you will begin ‘filling’ one of these three buckets. There is no limit to how often you may post, but you must change the number every time you post. So if I started off deciding I was going to go for HOH, I would make my next post:



HOH: 1/250

Secret Power: 0/150

Veto Advantage: 0/125



The first HouseGuest to fill up the HOH bucket all the way (250 posts) will become this week’s HOH, and the competition will stop.

However, as you may have figured out by now, there are two other prizes to compete for if you so choose:

-A secret power (requires 150 posts)

-An advantage in this week’s Veto competition, which you can pass on to another HouseGuest if you are not selected to participate in the competition, if you want to (requires 125 posts)

Each of these two prizes can only be won once. I will inform the house of who has won HOH and the Veto Advantage, but if you win the secret power, it will remain a secret. As soon as someone wins HOH, the competition will stop, regardless of whether or not the other two prizes have been won, but I will let you all know as soon as someone has won each prize. Send me a PM as soon as you have posted enough to win a prize so I can check it over and confirm.



But that’s not all! There will also be the opportunity to participate in a game-changing twist this season. In order to attempt to win this, please send Joe (joepetz) a PM with a 3-digit number. Whoever gets closest to this number without going over will win the opportunity to participate in this twist. In the case of a tie, whoever sent in their number first will win. You may send in a number AND go for HOH and/or one of the prizes. So, there is a (highly unlikely) possibility that one HouseGuest could win all four things up for grabs!



Good luck to all of you and I hope you enjoy this competition! Do not start posting until I give you the go-ahead at 7PM.

Your first post must have zeroes in all three categories. Each post can only add one point to ONE of the three buckets, not to all of them. Remember to PM me once you fill up a bucket. The number can be sent to Joe once you finish the competition.

HouseGuests ready? GO!!!

[Brett]

The Secret Power has been won and is no longer in play.

[Brett]

Congratulations, Casey, you are the new HOH! Stop filling buckets, HouseGuests, the competition is over.

The Veto advantage was not won by anyone because Casey won HOH before anyone was able to fill the Veto advantage bucket.

Casey, you have until 8:25 PM Eastern time to decide which power you plan to use, at which point I will open voting.

[Fratomon]

Good job, Casey. Wear my HOH Key with pride, I'm coming back for it soon enough!

[ddawgman1]

Great job, Casey! What a competition!

[doolgirl]

Wow Great Job Casey. I should have checked the boards sooner and saved myself the last ten minutes lol

[brendan]

Nice prioritizing Casey. Wish I had gotten into my groove sooner.

On the bright side, that Manicotti tasted good with sauce.

[lassidoggy]

Good job, Corey!

Oops! I posted the competition in the Dining Room instead of in the Backyard. Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.

Nice job Casey! That was one heck of an effort there.
