Derek's Diary Room Questions

[ddawgman1]

Hey, Jake. Here are the Diary Room Questions I have come up with for you. There is no time limit set. Just please read them and complete them in a “reasonable time.” I look forward to your answers.



JAKE



1. Do you still feel like you’re the most powerful player in the game?

-If yes, how do you intend to keep that power through the end of the game?

-If no, who has taken your place or who is a close rival?



2. The Bullet Club had the intention of being the Final 7 in the game. Obviously, that has not happened since Jacob is still in the game. What led to the decisions that Trent and Brad were the first to be cut? Was that pre-planned? Was it spur of the moment?



3. Have Trent and Brad’s evictions made you concerned at all about your security in the Bullet Club? Do you have concerns that you’re the “low man on the totem pole?”



4. If Jacob continues to win, do you have a back-up plan? Is there a pecking order to the Bullet Club? If Jacob wins the next Veto Competition, which member of the Bullet Club would you want to see voted out?



5. Who is the biggest threat, right now, that stands in your way of claiming winner of Big Brother 9? How do you intend to stop this threat from taking your title?



6. Are you worried at all that the Bullet Club might break up? If so, who are the people you suspect that could flip the game and do you intend to do anything about that?



7. Looking back so far, do you have any regrets about your game? Anything you would have changed?



8. If you had your way, who would you want to sit next to in the Final Two? Does that other person know you want to go to the Final Two with them?



9. In your opinion, what has kept the Bullet Club so tight? Are people that afraid of trying to make a move that they stay? Is the friendship and loyalty so secure that people stay? Is it a combination of multiple factors? Please Explain



10. How much do you talk with Jacob? Have you ever made any kind of strategy with him? At this stage, would making a strategy with Jacob help or hurt your game?

Alright, Derek, Lets do this.

1. I do still feel like the most powerful person in this game, yes. Every eviction, every HOH (even Jacob's), has been controlled by me. I arguably defeated Isaac by not giving him the huge negative reaction he so desperately craved, and everyone before and after him was a victim of my ability. They really like to crap on my social game, but I think they cant see that my social game is SO GOOD, I kept this entire Club together, including letting someone in weeks into the season, and I've made them succeed. I had to use a great social game last year to get to the final two, and this season, has been the perfect mix of comp wins and social game. I intend to just continue to conduct Spidey and Amanda and use Carleen and Crulex as our extra bodies to get to the end goal of us being the Final 3. Just need to handle Jacob first, but my power is unwavering. 

2. Trent and Brad being cut were pre-planned decisions. Trent and Brad constantly didnt show up for comps and missed votes no matter how much I told them to be there, so they were always the fat we were going to trim. It was for sure not a spur of the moment deal.

3. This question can't be serious. I think you know me too well and have seen enough of this game and how it's played out to think there is any chance that I am the lowest person on the totem pole.

4. The pecking order is Crulex, Carleen, and Amanda. If it is Final 3 with me, Spidey, and Jacob, and Jacob wins...it's out of my hands. He'll more than likely recognize he can't beat either myself or Spidey, as there will be five Bullet Club members in the jury (six if that happens), so he would just be trying to screw me out of winning and give it to Spidey. If Jacob wins the next Veto, Crulex will be voted out.

5. Jacob is. I intend on needing to win any of the next few POVs.

6. It's too late for the Bullet Club to break up. Should have asked me this Final 10 or 11. We're being slowly taken out, there's no need to break up. However, regardless, I always knew we'd never break up. You need to understand the allegiance Amanda has to the group and Spidey's loyalty to me. Everyone else, with the exception of our 10-year long friend Crulex, is playing because they're my good friends and they usually only showed up to play when I told them to or asked them to. The Bullet Club is marvel because there was never a single chance that we'd ever break up because they're all MY FRIENDS. They may not have all known each other prior, but it doesnt really matter. There was NEVER a chance we were ever going to break up, and it most certainly wont happen now. 

7. I regret ever getting along with Isaac. He showed his true colors of being nothing more than a pompous, stupid idiot. 

8. I will be in the Final 2, barring Jacob committing a S7 Jake-sized miracle, with Spidey. He knows this, I am also his F2, and we decided this the day the game started.

9. The Bullet Club has stayed tight because of me. I've been on top of speaking to everyone, keeping everyone updated, letting them know when they'd be needed or if they could take a break. I treated them like people, as they should be treated. They're my friends, after all. It's a sad fact that people will look back on for years to come should this game continue: but no one feared me or the Club itself. They just didnt care enough or understand enough to make moves to break it up. I know my friends are like minded, smart individuals. There was nothing to gain from turning on the Bullet Club because they simply didn't care enough. Spidey wouldn't have even played if not for the Bullet Club. 

10. I spoke with Jacob a bit following Isaac's blow up and sort of came to an understanding with him on a personal level, but am still very much at odds with him within the game. I have never made a strategy with him and will not be doing so now. There is nothing for me to gain being on his side and keeping him in the game, but plenty to lose.
