Angry Ash has so much venom, lol. I don't like the idea of voting as a block to try and prevent someone from winning since if somebody plays well you should probably vote for them, but I'm not going to pretend this sort of thing never happens, unfortunately.
That house meeting log that Shilpa posted is delicious. Go read.
It was really good lol Chris is on point with most of the stuff he was saying. I agree with this:
[7:42 PM says]: (chrismashall) Honestly Ika, I like you a lot. I just can’t stand the fact that you’re sitting around and playing to lose to Craig/Shilpa/Rachelle.
Those three must have a pre-game right, I assume their all-star rejects who have played multiple seasons of this series, otherwise I don't know how so many idiots managed to team up together, and how Dan and Ivette keep getting dragged by them
Ivette is still in the game cuz chu kept her fuuuuuck
Sucks to see Chris go. I actually knew both of them irl so it was pretty funny to have them separately talk to me about what's going on. They had absolutely no idea they were playing together, it was pretty funny to hear both sides.
ELIMATED: Monet: I couldn't ever tell if she was active or inactive, so I'm not sure if I'm too upset about her leaving.
Drew: From the beginning, I didn't like Drew. I didn't hate him, per se. I just didn't really get all the hype that everyone gave him. Once it turned into a Shilpa & The Sidekicks vs. Drew's Crew war, he seemed to buckle and just make himself the second biggest target in the house
Christopher: Behold, the biggest target in the house. Although I would never go out as colorful as he did, it was still entertaining to read. He joins me in the 9th placers, so welcome to the club! I didn't like him at first, but he grew on me, and had he toned down his gameplay, I think he could've done really well.
STILL IN THE GAME Ash: I still don't like him. He's a comp beast, sure, but that's about it. Besides for how well he does in comps, I don't care too much for him. If anything, I just see him as a B-List Ryan from RNF8 minus the underdog-ness
Christine: Still playing a solid game, I can't say much else on her right now, but as of now, she's heading for AS territory.
Craig: See Christine
Dan: MY LOVE MY ONE MY ONLY DAN "THE TIGERFUCKER" GHEESLING. WIN THIS GAME YO
Ika: is anyone getting Luisa vibes? In terms of "omg i'm running this house everyone you're welcome for me being here"
Ivette: I'm still pulling for Ivette, although her window of being amazing is getting smaller and smaller every day, it seems like
Rachelle: I keep drawing a blank on her. I know she's active, and i know she's doing relatively well, but either I have a horrible memory or she doesn't really make a good impression because I for the life of me keep forgetting she's in the game. Along with Shilpa, Craig and Christine, probably the fourth and final all star for this season (isn't there four all stars this season? since one season had 6 all stars chosen? or am i just really tired and 100% wrong)
Shilpa: let me love you let's go get married asap and have beautiful badass comp winning babies plz
Ash's attitude lately has been really off-putting, especially because he's so angry about a reality that doesn't exist. Christine winning though would have at least made things a little bit exciting... and speaking from a purely personal/emotional level, I don't think that she'd have nominated Shilpa (my very fav, obvi!)
Also, I like James but at the same time I'm finding Rachelle really hard to root for right now so her winning HoH was definitely lackluster and will likely just advance the status quo. Chris was a piece of work (love you too Samm!) but the way that Rachelle got so defensive towards his perception of her gameplay... it's like girl, come on. I just don't think that she's playing the game that she thinks she is. I don't think Chris had things pegged exactly, but he was probably closer to describing her actual role in the game than Rachelle herself is. Just my two cents.

Matt, you must've gotten a little bit of different Luisa vibes than I did. I don't recall her ever actually thinking she was running the show. But she was still always good to have around and talk to.
