Well now I can post in the viewers lounge. Think everyone needs to get Nicky out of the house what a game playing nasty snake he is.

What do you all think of the Ranked Nominations being introduced?
Josiah.
14-10-2024 06:59 PM
And here's Jake's responses to the interview questions:
Main Questions: 1) What was your initial reaction to your fellow housemates going in on Day 0?
Quote:
I was quite surprised there was only 7 of us. It seemed to make the competition a lot harder!
2) Were you surprised by having the mini-task on Day 1?
Quote:
That seems like such a long time ago now I can't even remember what it was!
3) Were you surprised by the nominations this round?
Quote:
I thought Nicky would be up again so yeah! But I knew the rest of us would be up!
4) What was your reaction to Vanessa walking so suddenly?
Quote:
I was so sad as I absolutely loved having her in the house with us!
5) If you could do this all over again, would you?
Quote:
I don't know I found it a lot harder then I thought it would be so probably not, but I'm pleased I gave it a go!
6) What tenets or skills do you think the remaining housemates need to make it to the Final 3?
Quote:
Likeability, Patience and hard work.
Big Brother Ten Questions: 1) What was the hardest thing about being in the Big Brother house?
Quote:
The tasks they took a lot of endurance. The music task at the start exhausted me!
2) What did you miss the most in the Big Brother house?
Quote:
Privacy. Being filmed 24/7 was pretty weird!
3) Who was your favourite person?
Quote:
Kate. Although I really enjoyed Benjamin's company too.
4) Who was your least favourite person?
Quote:
Nicky. He kept blaming the failure of the music task on me. Which is laughable!
5) Who had the most annoying habit?
Quote:
Cherie. She kept hogging the kitchen!
6) Who was the funniest person?
Quote:
Benjamin!
7) Who do you think is playing the game?
Quote:
Surely they all are. But I see determination in Kate's eyes!
8) What was the best thing about being in the Big Brother house?
Quote:
My fellow housemates! And the house itself was pretty special. Will miss the cave room.
…but I’m sure I’ll understand the nominations as they unfold…

…I don’t understand with the ranked points or really the points in general … because they’re not so important but they’re also all important…so obviously the ranking of each other is going to create feelings that don’t need to be there for people who have all been part of the game together and pulled together through tasks etc…also, if one housemates points are so much more than other for instance…?…then does it really benefit from public vote so much…
…I’m sure I’m just missing something as I confess not having fully followed all of the game and more dipped in and out …good luck all in the next eviction vote…:love:…

Benjamin Big Quiz Answers
Spoiler:
Quote:
AUTHENTICITY:
1. What, if anything, would you change about your experience? I’d probably should have allied with Jake at the start as he was a good player and a shame he went as I’d hoped having him up would send Kate out.
2. Why did you do the things you did in the house? Drama, passion, gameplay and banter
3. What piece of advice would you give to someone? don’t play a game if you don’t feel you can handle being played
4. How authentic do you think you've been in the house? 100% - I’ve made no secret about my strategy or thoughts haha
5. Do you think authenticity is a key tenet in winning the game? Yes - if you’re not it’ll catch you out. Especially with allies, don’t burn bridges/sell them out. Sometimes people may not like the authenticity but better to play the game as yourself.
RESOURCEFULNESS:
1. What about your performance in the tasks or mini-tasks would you change? Probably the strongest out of all when I’m available. Spamming tasks I wasn’t really on for but all the big main tasks I was detrimental in helping us pass.
2. How could you have changed your strategy towards tasks? I wouldn’t change anything.
3. Who do you think was the most resourceful or helpful during the tasks? Main tasks myself, Cherie and Jake. Mini tasks Kate as she was the only person online when they started
4. How could you be more helpful in these types of tasks? I don’t think I could be, I was the most helpful lol
5. Could you have had better teamwork in the tasks? Again I was strong in team work by coordinating structures and helping people where I could.
DETERMINATION:
1. How determined are you to be one of the Big 3 finalists? I am a finalist. But I was very determined to get to the final.
2. What was the biggest challenge you've had to face whilst in the house? Kate. I sense she allied up with most players near the start to help keep herself safe whereas I didn't seek out any allies. I knew I’d be high on her radar to get out from the game.
3. How did you overcome said challenge? Humour, drama and making sure they needed to keep me around to help with tasks. I also bid my time with voting Kate and targeted Vanessa (her most likely closest ally, sorry Vanessa, it wasn’t personal) as I knew nobody else would target Kate (unsure why when she had the most points (lol). When I saw Kate target Cherie I knew that Cherie would likely target Kate back, so my target finally went to Kate knowing there’d likely be enough votes to put her up. I knew from then Cherie was a strong ally to have.
4. How determined are you to win? Very. I was your first applicant and said from the start I play a game with the aim to win.
Since the start of the game I’ve given 100% effort and do feel I deserve to win. I could have easily played a safe game to try and cruise through, but that’s not how I play games or want to win one.
Tasks:
Tasks wise I took on the most hours (nearly half the task) during the 12 hour radio task. That was time consuming but I got on with it to ensure we all passed as a group.
The chain of mistrust task nobody really understood it, so I stepped up and took charge to again ensure we succeeded.
I contributed massively during the first mini task by posting loads. It’s unfortunate I missed the second mini task for posting but it was run during the day, when I was at work.
I also won the colours task.
Strategy/Relationships:
I’ve been active, funny, loyal and caused some dramas but in defending players/or against what felt like bias in the game as not everything was made public for us all to see. I was never rude, and will always stand my ground if I feel something isn’t fair. Players may not see it but I have stood up for/tried to help Barry, Nicky and Jake in the game. It’s a shame none trusted me enough as none would have been my targets in the game.
I haven’t betrayed anybody in this game to make it to the end (unlike me I know!). I avoided any alliances early on as suspected most would be targeting me anyway and didn’t want to give them extra reasons to do so.
I’ve been watching people’s movements and trying to establish their votes from the start.
I had to target Vanessa (which pained me) as I knew her and Kate were the strongest bond and would never vote each other. I was fairly certain at this point nobody would target Kate so if I targeted her too soon then I’d be the main target. I was correct, as nobody had nominated her.
I thought Jake may be a good ally, and I tried to help him in the countries task but a wrong strategy move by him (he didn’t neutralise Kate’s double vote) when he had the chance, felt to me he was likely working with Kate. Hence I had to target him to stop them having enough votes to get me out as the numbers dwindled.
My opportunity to start targeting Kate came when she targeted Cherie instead of me with her double vote. This provided me a strong and surprising ally, Cherie.
In the points tasks I placed people in the order I genuinely felt they should be placed. It was a risky strategy but I was confident it would still pay off to put Kate up against Nicky (which it did), with my feeling and hope Nicky would survive as I did want Nicky to make the final.
Cherie has been my only ally. It’s important to have one solid ally and I’ve stayed true and not tried to turn on her.
Regrets:
The only regret I have is my first set of nominations. Not sure I can discuss them in detail yet. But one of my votes went to somebody inactive without realising their reasons for being inactive. I wouldn’t have nominated them had I known as I’d would have liked to get to know them more. Big Brother can confirm that in my diary room convo, as soon as I knew the reasons I felt bad.
I have no other regrets though. I played the game with dedication, determination, strategy and been honest with my style. I know my game play style isn’t for everyone but I’ve never been mean or malicious.
So, that’s my reasoning for me to win. I’m not going to ask for votes, as when I did all hell ended up kicking off (another drama I was indirectly involved in haha) but if you feel I’ve done enough to justify a win, please vote for me. I promise to bring world peace*.
Thank you. :love:
*Disclaimer - I can’t actually guarantee world peace. But I’ll love you until BB is over x

Dear Viewers

Thanking you all who have voted to keep me in to the final :douf:
Kate Big Quiz Answers

Quote:
AUTHENTICITY:
1. What, if anything, would you change about your experience? I wouldn't have nominated Nicky in the first set of nominations. I'd have nominated Benjamin :pipe:
2. Why did you do the things you did in the house? At first I just wanted to entertain and have a good time, but my competitive side kicked in early doors and I did whatever I felt was necessary to go for the win especially in regard to nominations.
3. What piece of advice would you give to someone? To Vanessa. Try not to take things to heart. Having said that I can really understand why she did, she's a very sensitive person like myself, that's why she's my very best friend.
4. How authentic do you think you've been in the house? 100%. What you see is what you get. I'm stubborn, feisty, competitive. I'm over sensitive. I'm real.
5. Do you think authenticity is a key tenet in winning the game? Oh yes absolutely. You can play the game and still be yourself.
RESOURCEFULNESS:
1. What about your performance in the tasks or mini-tasks would you change? Nothing. I gave them my all. Much enthusiasm. I found them very enjoyable and didn't give up. The radio task was a bit stressful, I was out of my comfort zone but I did it and I'm proud.
2. How could you have changed your strategy towards tasks? I think my strategies were fine.
3. Who do you think was the most resourceful or helpful during the tasks? All my fellow housemates in their own ways. If I had to single just one out it'd be Benjamin. Great organisational skills.
4. How could you be more helpful in these types of tasks? Again I don't think this applies. I gave my all.
5. Could you have had better teamwork in the tasks? No.
DETERMINATION:
1. How determined are you to be one of the Big 3 finalists? Well I've made it to the last hurdle, which is beating Nicky in a head to head to stay. That'll be no mean feat, he's very strong and worthy competition. So I'll try not to be too disappointed if I go. But I really want to stay, wholeheartedly.
2. What was the biggest challenge you've had to face whilst in the house? Ignoring Ben's blatant lies about me pissing in the bin, farting etc etc. He loves me really!
3. How did you overcome said challenge? By gritting my teeth lol. Trying to take him with a huge pinch of salt. It helps that I do actually adore him. However I want to beat the pants off him. Hehe.
4. How determined are you to win? A million %.

Intro
Well it's been an adventure and I'm still standing! I've enjoyed myself immensely. Here's my campaign to win. Hope you like it.
An Optimistic Poem About My Journey
In the depths of night, a spark of light,
Guides the champion to the fight.
With every dawn, the spirit wakes,
Ready to face what courage takes.
Through the valleys of doubt and fear,
A voice within whispers clear.
The path to triumph, seldom straight,
But worth the journey, worth the wait.
With every victory, small or grand,
The champion stands, with heart in hand.
A tale of grit, a tale of might,
The journey ends in victory's light
I've been true to myself. I've been real. I came, I saw, I conquered!
I rode the storm. Twas a rocky journey, with fights and tantrums lol. But I'd do it all again in a heartbeat.
Resourcefulness
I had to draw on my reserves to help accomplish the tasks. I was out of my comfort zone on the Radio Station challenge, but I persevered and I feel I made a pretty good contribution.
I also created a mini task for us to do, which shows I had heart and enthusiasm. It was quite successful, even though I came last and psychic Benjamin stormed it. We'll gloss over that! :laugh:
Determination
Oh boy was I determined? Yes indeed. I had faith I could win, and kept up a consistent performance in all aspects. I had my moment when I wavered and almost quit but I bounced back, larger than life and turned things around. I'm very resilient.
Why I Should Win
A vote for me is a vote for Girl Power. I'm the last girl standing. I can exclusively reveal that Cherie is in fact a man, real name Christopher. A woman has never won Tibb BB. I'd like to be the first. It's time!
Let's make it happen xoxo
Highlights
* Overcoming the vicious bullying and fake allegations of pissing in the bin
* Being given the honour of every evictees points. I'm truly thrilled that they felt I deserved them
* Creating the Colours Of The World Mini Task
* Making the Final alongside Nicky after a very hard fought battle ended in a tie
Actual Quotes From Fellow Housemates
Benjamin "She's a Goddess. I lied about her because she was such strong competition. I'm not sorry!"
Barry "Kate is great"
Jake "My favourite housemate. We contemplated a showmance but in the end our integrity wouldn't allow us to go down that path"
Vanessa "I love her"
Cherie "She saw my man bits in the shower"
Nicky "Kate deserved the final. I'm so glad it was a tie. She's so luvli"
Summation
Vote for me please.
That is all.

dear viewers, normally i'd never really say things like why you should vote for me, but here i go with why i would be a worthy TiBB BB champion, out of the 4 finalists i consider myself most authentic because there is no one quite like me on here, i can't say i have been most resourceful otherwise i would lie and i never lie, i am always honest, i do however consider myself giving 110% commitment to the tasks and day to day activity in the house, i am very determined to win although if i don't win i consider myself already a champion in terms of trying my best at playing the best game i could've done all the while also remaining very genuine and real, and i never have been fake for one second, what i have done to deserve the TiBB BB title, provide the necessary entertainment, good dosage of team spirit

After that, a discussion with the ex-housemates of the series will occur, and shortly after that, the announcement of the finalists and their interviews will occur. After the Big Winner is revealed, a reunion will happen with the housemates and the reveal of their nominations, the reasons, and all the voting percentages.
