Interviews

John:

1. We heard some people saying you had a lot of alliances? Is that true? Who were they?

Yes I have A LOT of alliances!!!! I wouldn't have been loyal to any of my alliances tbh, but my main alliance was with Carter and Dawson. They both promised me f2 and I told them everything they wanted to hear. I also used my looks to my advantage to get stronger deals from them. My secondary alliance was with David. David and I were going to be partners in this game, but I lied to him and tried to get him out so many times before our duo was made that when i was on the block he was scared of me and voted me out (i guess). My next alliance was with Cisco, Nessa, and Olivia. We had a strong alliance in the beginning, but i realized i couldn't trust Cisco after he wouldn't vote David out when i was Hoh (even though i voted out nessa who had my back.) My other alliance was with Jason and Chas i called it the third wheel alliance. Like seriously make out in a different room and let me stay out of it! Jason was someone who i trusted but Chas didn't earn my trust completely. I also had brief + strong alliances with... Brew, Austin and Dallas. I didn't meet Stefan, but hopefully now you can all see why I had to put up Kaleb at the time.

2. During that week you were evicted, were you shocked some of your allies turned on you?

I was shocked David turned on me. He swore that 100% he would keep me and didn't. It was a smart move because i lied to him constantly but i was pretty sure he was going to keep me. Olivia and Cisco shunned me and wouldn't even talk to me (b*****s), so i knew they were evicting me. Dawson was in love with me and i think Carter was too so i knew they were keeping me safe.

3. Why is it or why do you believe you were targeted so early in the game? 

I believe that i was targeted so early in the game because I was a threat + i believe that my plan to take Chas' mind off the game by causing drama with him backfired. Even though some people viewing didn't see me as a threat most of the contestants did. I was very social, did well in challenges (besides the ones i threw), and was EXTREMELY strategic. Chas knew that first hand since my Hoh when i got him to take Austin off the block to get David taken out of the house. It almost worked but Cisco.... dumb cisco......

4.  Do you think Austin could have been evicted instead of you? What move do you think you should've done in order to accomplish that? 

I don't think he could have because he was SUCH A FLOATER!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone saw me as a bigger fish especially those who had a sense of how i played the game. Once i was put up i knew i was in trouble. I tried so hard to get Davids vote and he Swore to keep me. Unfortunately he didn't and i was sent home. There was no move i could have done to save me when i was on the block i tried hard and except the fact that i was evicted.

Carter:

1. We all thought you were close to Olivia, why do you think she nominated you week 7?

I was never really close with Olivia. I was friends and we talked from time to time. And I honestly thought she had my back until atleast f5. I think she saw me a social threat like most of the people left in the house at the time. We've talked since she got me out and I somewhat forgive her. Therefor I am not extreamly mad at her.

2.  Some people claimed that you were a huge target for being such a great social player, what can you say to this?

I agree, I wanted to win a HOH comp or a POV comp very badly. But when I first came into the game that wasn't what I had planned. I didn't want a HUGE target on my back. But I guess sneaking around and talking with everybody made one

3.  Did you ever try moves? Like being the swing vote and making deals for this?

Actually, I wanted Chas out at one point. But then when Chas said he has my back I desided to get Jason out. I told Jason I didn't evict him which I did. But I didn't really care because he wasn't in the Jury so if I ade final 2 it wouldn't effect my game at all.

4. What do you think you could've done differently to make it further and even final 2?

I think I should have won the comps, I knew I could win them but if I ever get a chance to come back on I think I wouldn't be social Carter any more . I should've talked with less people too. I did this to myself. Yet I think I did well for not winning any HOHs , POVs.

Dawson:

1.  During week 8, when you were evicted, everyone thought Cisco was out, what happened?

I even thought he was out, I could not compete in any Comps during week 8 so I guess it was on me though ! I had theree Votes and David turned, I knew i should have not trusted him .

2.  This is your 3rd time playing a season, how was this different from past seasons?

Well , I guess nothing was different, there is always one person I want out during since the  beginning and these season there where two and both of them are in the final, Most weeks I tried to get them out but they where to good ! Proud of everyone though! 

3. What was your downfall this season?

I guess not being able to play on the week I went home ! 

4. Along with Carter, people said you had a great social game, but you were evicted, why was this?

Carter really didn't have a great social game, I did tho because I had the right number of vets on my side and the right number of newbs on my side I guess I was so thinking to far. I meant to blow those Comps but the Video HOH one I knew I need that one because people would get to know my plan. My play was not to win any comps because If I won some I would Have to put people on the block and not be safe by everyone.

Olivia:

1.  You were compared to our all stars winner Sophia, how do you take this?

I find it fascinating, I talked to a few people to ask her who Sophia was and they all told me great things about her so it is definitely a compliment for me being compared to the all stars winner, sadly I wasn't as good as her to make final 2.

2. What happened at that double eviction? Why were you evicted?

That pov! I couldn't win it and leave nominations the same! I really thought cisco was going up instead of me but at that time Austin was closer to Cisco than I was to Austin so that's how things went.  Once I was nominated I was sure I was going home, after all Brew didn't vote with us the round before that I don't blame him though, he was a good player.

3. Cisco was a big part of you, why did you trust him since week 1? 

Not since week 1 but from day 1! haha we talked and I really liked him since then and right there I knew we could make it far together, we did, didn't make final 2 but still was great fighting by his side, after all he IS the king of BB6! haha 

4. Did you ever think of backstabbing someone? Do you believe you backstabbed someone? 

I did, I feel like I backstabbed some of the people I was close to, like John, who I find really interesting, didn't think he could win since he fights 24/7 so it wouldve been smart to keep him longer, Carter another one who I feel extremely sorry for nominating, and I also feel like I backstabbed dawson in some way at the eviction he was against cisco but I did what I had to do and it is really an honor to get to play with veterans of this game.

Chas:

1. This was definitely a different strategy from past seasons we've seen you play?  Tell us what was different from previous seasons?

What was different this season really had a lot to do with the disadvantage I had coming into the game. A lot of people would probably look at it as an advantage, but I don't. People could read from all-stars that I did really well in comps and I've made final 2 twice so, really I was targetted earlier on. Because of this I knew I couldn't play along with the same strategy I did when I first started on this site which was lay low, win if I needed to, and be a super nice person to everyone. This time around I think the real me came out. I'm a very straight-forward sarcastic person, although nice and I'm very competitive. Because everyone already looked at me as a threat I figured why not prove them right, so I perfected my social game and won as much as I could. I think I did great, too.

2. You had different allies during the season, did you ever think this could backfire before final 3?

Honestly, most of the allies I developed earlier on in the game were to keep Jason and I safe from all different angles, and it worked for awhile. There were so many times I had to promise someone safety just to keep our names safe and our heads off the chopping block. I really just wanted to postpone my inevitable nominations for as long as I could. I really don't think this backfired on me either, I mean I made final 5..I did really well this season as well. So, obviously I did something right with the multiple people I talked to, and if we're being real here I fully targeted people who weren't on my side until we got later in the season and that's when I pulled out the idea to get rid of Olivia.

3. Jason was evicted very early in the game, how did this change your strategy?

I became much quieter when Jason got evicted. I think a lot of people expected that I wouldn't be as strong without them, but what they fail to realize was I played a seasons without Jason once before and I made final 2. I am fully capable of being an independent player without the help of a duo, it was just nice to have that luxury. But, before he got evicted I was more competitive and up front with the people I wanted out, afterwards I sank into the shadows and let these people take each other out before I went in.

4. Do you think this season was tougher than all-stars? How? 

SO MUCH TOUGHER. There were more threats in all-stars, but this season was completely new people. In all-stars we all had ideas of who was with who, and this season it changed so often because I honestly believe the people this time around were a bit more cut-throat.

5. A lot of things happened during week 8 what exactly happened in your own words? What about the fast forward and week 9?

I think Week 8 was my biggest mistake. I got confident, and honestly I believe that I could've gotten Cisco out if I hadn't of tried to score jury votes from it. In my head I planned to evict Cisco making it seem like I had no other choice and that I didn't want people to think Olivia and I were together, but in all honesty I had been planning this weeks in advance. If I just would have blind-sided him, he wouldn't have gone to Austin, and influenced Austin so easily and the standings would be completely different. Plus, it's apparent David was working with Cisco. If anything I think that was David's biggest mistake because he might've had a chance to beat Dawson, or me, or Austin..but instead he's going against Cisco and Austin who are clearly working together. and let's be real, who wouldn't take Austin to the end.

When it comes to the fast forward week, I think I redeemed myself from my previous mess-up. I mean, obviously I was target enemy #1 so by pulling off that veto I was able to have Brew come with me so we can take out who was clearly one of the biggest threats, Olivia. I felt bad about it, but I know that she would've won this game if I didn't.

*On a side-note, this has been a super fun experience and I fully expect to participate in future seasons, whether it be competing or judging. It sucks to have FINALLY been evicted, but I can be proud of the three different games I've played :) Good luck houseguests!
CHAS OUT.

Brew:

1. What changed after you came back in the game? How did your strategy change? Or was it the same?

To be honest, I was just glad to be back. Once I was evicted, I realized how much I wanted to be back in the game, and go all the way.
I wanted to team up with David again and Austin, because I was pretty much forced into a duo with Austin, and I felt like David trusted me, and wanted me there in the final 3 with him.
I still wanted Cisco and Olivia out, and I also wanted to target Carter and Dawson this time too, because after my eviction, I realized how much they've floated to this point, and how further they can float, until one of them is in the final 2 with no blood on their hands. I also wanted to work with Chas more, because he was really the only other person that expressed how much he wanted Cisco and Olivia out. We shared something in common, why not join together and make it happen?

2. You were "forced" into a duo with Austin, or was this always planned? How do you think this affected your gameplay?

I was honestly closest with David in the game than Austin, in the beginning. It's Austin and I did trust each other, but after he didn't show up for competitions, I felt like I was on my own, and I made a deal with a brick wall, rather than a player.
But as I always said, if they think Austin and I are a duo, then a duo they'll get. I knew no one would believe me if I said we weren't together, so when I returned, I formed a stronger bond with Austin, and we could have made it to the end together.
But really, it's BRAVID people, not Brewstin.

3. What exactly happened during your nomination? What was going through your head when Austin nominated you?

I knew that if I didn't win PoV, I'd be screwed. Austin revealed his "mastermind" plan to me, and all I could think of was that fast forward when I evicted Olivia, Austin told me he'd NEVER nominate someone over me. And now just a week later, I'm nominated.
It didn't matter to me. The final 4 is basically whoever doesn't win HoH, the other 3 are nominated. It just made me feel like Austin has a deal with Cisco, because he was afraid of nominating him.

4. What happened during your eviction? Do you think you had a chance at staying? 

I knew the PoV would come down to Cisco and I, and he'd win it. I could have predicted that 10 years ago. As soon as I lost final PoV, I knew I'd be the next evicted.
This entire season, I swear that everyone's been thinking about who's the bigger threat in challenges, and how to take them out. When really, it's the people that don't win challenges and talk to everyone that really matters.
I knew Cisco wanted me out because of "Brewstin" for one, and two that I could possibly win final HoH and finally evict his ass.
But even David said it himself: he's talked with everyone in this game and he's got to know everyone on a personal level. It's dangerous to put someone like that in the final 3.
