Week 14
Houseguests: Cassandra Waldon, James Rhine, Josh Welch
Only one more eviction stood between the Final 3 and the Finale.
It's funny, because I had a conversation with Cassandra saying there's 3 weeks left, and Russell and Karen needed to be 2 of those 3 evictions. I got my goal accomplished, however, my neck is clearly marked to be eviction number 3. Hopefully I can avoid my streak of losing final 3 HoH competitions, or else I'm a goner.
Part 1 of the Final HOH was Grab a Lifevest. In it, the Final 3 had to stay afloat in water, while removing water, and moving with the changing tides. After over 3 hours, James claimed victory and advanced to Part 3.
The first part of the HoH was an endurance with three commands that overlapped. The hardest part was definitely the fact that there was a huge gap between each command (10 minutes minimum) so if you tried to kill time and lost track of what time it was, you were screwed. That's what happened to me. I planned to go for 4 or 5 hours and I didn't even get to 3. I was just surfing the web and next time I knew it was past my time. It's a shame cause if I reached my target time, I would've beat James, who is my main competition.
In Part 2 of the Final HOH, Cassandra and Josh competed in Gamers. In it, Cassandra and Josh faced off in a series of three games. The winner would be the houseguest who won at least two of the three. Cassandra ended up winning all 3 matches and advance to the final round.
Josh: Oh shit! LOL.... I never was good at flash type games. Good luck James and Cassie!
The second part was three flash games and I was nervous. I suck at Helicopter, I've never played this Robot Unicorn game, but Slider puzzles are my shit. So I just did my best and expected to lose, but I won all three lolpwnt. So onto Part 3 where I have to go against James. Basically who wins this will win the game because we're both going to take the goat Josh to the end.
In the final part, James and Cassandra went head to head in See Through Jury's Lies. They were given statements that jurors made throughout the game and had to figure out the true and false ones. After 8 questions, Cassandra barely won and was crowned the Final HOH of the season.
So I still suck at winning final HoHs. lmao
But right before, I told Cassandra I would take her to the end, and she reciprocated the love! Hopefully she follows through...
Third part was a Jury survey. I have a pretty good sense of perception so I figured that I had a chance. Well, I sucked. Good news is that James sucked more.
With Cassandra secured for the finale, she needed to decide who she would bring to the end with her.
Cassandra: Alright everyone. James and Joshuah, as you know you two are nominated for eviction. This is a tough decision and I've seriously thought about it a thousand times. My brain is pulling me in one direction and my heart is pulling me in another direction. I don't want to have any regrets so with that said, I vote to evict...James.
James, all I can say is I'm sorry. You're an awesome person and have been a great friend the whole way, but I don't wanna pull a Colby and pick the wrong person. We've both played similar games but I think it's time for a newbie to win.
Josh: Congrats Cassie, and thanks for saving me!! Sorry to see you go James.
I looked back on my first DR where I told myself huge red flag for James and that just made me convince myself to get it over with. I've acknowledged how he's been a threat this whole game since he played the game I tried to play, so he just had to go. It sucks that I had to directly do it after he tried to BS a final two deal, but you gotta do what you gotta do. FINAL TWO BABY!
Once again, the finale escaped James' grasp as he was evicted and made the last juror.
