BIG BROTHER NATION

Welcome to the world. In the near dystopian future, 16 global powers remain. All vie for an absolute empire, yet rather than arbitrarily shed blood, they’ve resorted to Big Brother. Each week, a temporary Empire of the World will be crowned, and have the ability to nominate two nations for elimination. 6 nations (including the Empire of the World and the two nations up for elimination) will have a chance to win a Nation VETO. At the end of the week, based on a vote of the safe nations, one of the two nations up for eviction will become evicted. 

16 ambassadors will be chosen to represent their respective country’s gameplay, but they won’t be in it alone. Nations in the same region as each other will work as a team until the time comes to separate. That means if your nation is in the same region as another, they cannot be nominated nor evicted. Below you will find the 16 global powers and their regions.

Jury Questions

Final 3, each of you will be given the chance to answer jury questions. I don’t want to give one of you false hope of answering them and for the jury to never hear why you deserve to win, but one of you will join the jury as the last member. You will be able to ask your question at finale night. Please keep your answers as short as possible, as the jury will have a lot of questions to read.

These are due tomorrow before 10 PM EST.

Also, speeches will be live. If you are unable to speak at finale, please have a speech prepared and Josh will read it out loud during the finale, which is Wednesday September 10, 2014 at 9:30 PM EST.

If you have any questions, please ask Shelby or Josh. 

Chases Questions:

Britt: You're like the sweetest person ever but honestly you make Danielle look like a superstar game-wise. Name O N E thing you've done other than be used time and time again as a pawn by the bigger players. Ryan: What have you done in this game to earn 1st place? (I'd have a better question but I literally forgot you were even in this game oops) Nate: Was there any independent thought involved in your game at all? What are some moves you made that were thought out and executed by YOU and no one else?

Grace’s Questions:

Nate- You were known as a competition threat, but you were also seen as a coward who wouldn't play their own game. I thought the same until you came to me to get out Jeff, which would've worked except Matt. Were there other times you controlled a move and if you did please explain to me in a way that does not involve other people coming to you first. Britt- Hi sweetie, you were seen as doing nothing the whole game, once again, I thought the same until you and Ryan came to me for an alliance before I was sadly voted out (because of Matt). Tell me what you did to compensate for your new alliance of 4 being ripped to shreds within 2 weeks. Ryan- Obviously you are incredibly good at these games, final 3 twice, however I will not be automatically giving you my vote this time like in still2014bb. I want you to earn this vote like you should've done in still2014bb. Tell me why you deserve my vote, and don't you dare say that you don't deserve my vote because honey I will not let you accept 2nd place again without trying.

Rach’s Questions:

(She’s not asking questions tbh)

Matt’s Questions:

Nate: You very obviously had your hand in every single person in this game, and for some reason nobody ever wanted you out. There’s no doubt that you had to make some powerful connections and then break those connections to further yourself. What, in your opinion, was the lowest thing you did in this game?

Britt: You are regarded as one of the nicest people in the game, but also the one who did the least. Do you think actively making friendships helped you get here or would you say that you were dragged to the final 2 as a goat?

Ryan: I talked to you the least out of everyone in the final 3, but one of the only times we talked, you claimed that you wanted to trust me. However, when Jeffery forged a conversation to turn you against me, you believed it. Do you believe that you were self aware enough to make moves to get yourself forward, or did you just luck your way to the end?

Jeff’s Questions:

nate: aside from voting with the house and jumping from guy to guy (chase, myself, grace during survivor week, matt, and chris) what was your strategy? because aside from winning comps, your social game was very lousy.‏

britt: aside from being nominated almost every week and surviving each time, what was your strategy and why should i vote for you to win?‏

ryan: congrats ryan, personally out of the final 3, you by far played the best game. who were your three biggest targets when jury started and how did you have a hand in their eviction‏

Chris’ Questions:

Nate- when would you say you started truly playing for yourself? ((Explain your answer))‏

Brittany- I love you boo but why do you deserve to win over Nate/Ryan‏

Ryan- what did you do to get yourself to the end of the game?

Kara’s Questions (to all three of you):

1) Do you think you made your own decisions during the game or did you ride it out following someone (or multiple someones) out. If so give some examples.

2) Were you manipulative in any way (lying, deceitful) anything. If so give examples.

Dani’s Questions:

Nate, you got evicted, but were saved by pandoras box. Do you think you deserve to be sitting there right now?

Nate, you made it to f8 (i believe) without being nominated. What did you do each week that didn’t get you nominated?

[hellabigbrother]

BY a vote of 7-4.....

CONGRATULATIONS LOUISE, YOU HAVE WON HELLA BIG BROTHER!!!

Brian was given a vote based on the evaluation of final DRs at the end.

Shelby, Dane, and Skylar gave their votes to Brian as well.

Kaitlyn, Troy, Christian, Roy, Dan, Heidi, and Hadar all voted for Louise to win.

YAYAYAYAY.

Thank you everyone for an amazing season. I know it was stressful at times, it lasted quite a while, and some of you probably hated it but I enjoyed hosting each and everyone one of you and I couldn't have asked for a better cast.

If you would like to view DRs, let me know. Good night, and congratulations again Louise!

[hellabigbrother]

Questions from the jury...

Josh, Brian, and Louise - congratulations on making it this far. Now, it's time for the jury to do their part. They have asked each of you a question, and it's your job to answer as best as you can.

This is a reminder that the finale is tomorrow at 9:45 PM EST. Any jurors who have not given me a vote before hand will be replaced.

Now, for the questions...

FOR BRIAN

Skylar: what real life commitments did you have to deal with in this game and how did you cope with it and balance playing the game?"

Shelby: If you were an animal, what one would it be and why? Please describe in detail why you would be that animal in reference to how you played the game.

Christian: 

1. Please compare each Jury Member to a different flightless bird and explain why they would be that flightless bird. 2. Please compare your gameplay to one of the States in the US(Louise you can do Australian states/territories I lived there for a semester so I'm a bit familiar with them) and explain why it would be that State. 3. Compliment me 5 different ways. 4. What is your favorite food and why and give me a recipe so I can try to recreate it sometime. 5. And finally, list as many things you know about me as possible. Like the things you've learned about me as a person through all our interactions.

Dan: 

Brian, you literally did everyone’s dirty work in your alliance. How does it feel to be the Cody of the season being led around by your alliance and being used as their own personal cum rag?  

Troy: 

First of all I’d like to congratulate you on making final 3. Its really great for someone like you to play who has no sense of feeling of remorse or of emotion. Honestly, it disgusts me the way you play this game I would of been fine had you evicted me without just bringing emotion into it. You really hurt my feelings and I understand its a game, but don’t make a deal if you cannot back it up, and thats what I feel like your game was just a mish mosh of broken deals so thanks for that. All I have to ask you is What do you have to say to me?

Kaitlyn: Brian: So, as far as game play goes, I literally don't know how any of the final 3 played. You never explained yourself well in your speeches and for the most part, never talked to me about any game so I literally have no idea what you did to get here. Can you please explain your entire game to me, how it benefited you to nominate me, and why you steal all the kills?

Hadar: 

just before my eviction, when you were "plotting" to save me, you told me you were 100% loyal to me since day one. you also appear to have told that to at least one other jury member. it's hard to be a good liar when you can be everybody's personal cum rag, isn't it?

Roy: How can you defend the perceived, blatant spinlessness laced through your game? Do you feel as if people made decisions for you and do you also feel like moves and nominations you made were to benefit you, or were you simply taking the easy way out?

Dane: You obviously have a lot of competition wins under your belt, but what did you do social game wise? I heard you flipped a lot back and forth as negatives, but what were positives to your social game which got you to the finals?

FOR LOUISE

Dane: Whenever I was counting down who was left in this game for F8, F7, F6, etc. I would forget that you were even in this game. Some people view your game as "under the radar," I view your game as lazy. Why should a member of the jury vote for someone as forgettable as you?

Christian: 

1. Please compare each Jury Member to a different flightless bird and explain why they would be that flightless bird. 2. Please compare your gameplay to one of the States in the US(Louise you can do Australian states/territories I lived there for a semester so I'm a bit familiar with them) and explain why it would be that State. 3. Compliment me 5 different ways. 4. What is your favorite food and why and give me a recipe so I can try to recreate it sometime. 5. And finally, list as many things you know about me as possible. Like the things you've learned about me as a person through all our interactions.

Shelby: Why should I vote for you when I forgot about you most of the time? What makes someone who made such little affect on the game be worthy of a vote to win?

Skylar: what real life commitments did you have to deal with in this game and how did you cope with it and balance playing the game?"

Roy: Could you please explain your apparent absence and disinterest for house events and your ignoring some houseguests all together? Did you feel that such actions were going to help you or did you simply not care?

Hadar: Was it the plan to start out terrifyingly strong and fade into complete irrelevancy as the game progressed?

Troy:  Daughter of Aphrodite, Spinster, Veronicas Lover, Angel, Saint, Fountain Of Youth, Confidant, and Silly Rabbit. A lot of people in this game have criticized you for becoming a floater, an enigma, and having no real gameplay the second half of the game. People have claimed you "disappeared" that no gameplay was there and you just got lucky. Please create a strong well centered counter argument that proves you did have game. Note: Fail to oblige with a specific answer will result in a loss of vote from Troy.

Kaitlyn: Well, we were never friends on skype, I never talked to you about the game, and before f5 it looked like you were just sleeping the entire way through this game. Were you doing anything at all? Because I sure as hell didn't see it and I honestly want an explanation of your game play. Prove me wrong. (Or right.)

Dan: I have no need to ask you a question. I commend your commitment to the game and not being social. I think this allowed you to play the cleanest game of them all. You have my vote because I always knew I had your vote when I was up on the block. You’re a class act unlike the fake sitting next to you.

FOR JOSH

Dane: For at least 3-4 weeks at a time I would message the HoHs saying like "backdoor Josh, backdoor Josh, backdoor Josh." How did you manage to never be put up in the early stages of the game and how did you manage to make it this far?

Christian: 

1. Please compare each Jury Member to a different flightless bird and explain why they would be that flightless bird. 2. Please compare your gameplay to one of the States in the US(Louise you can do Australian states/territories I lived there for a semester so I'm a bit familiar with them) and explain why it would be that State. 3. Compliment me 5 different ways. 4. What is your favorite food and why and give me a recipe so I can try to recreate it sometime. 5. And finally, list as many things you know about me as possible. Like the things you've learned about me as a person through all our interactions.

Shelby: Who deserves to be in your position instead of you and why?

Skylar: what real life commitments did you have to deal with in this game and how did you cope with it and balance playing the game?"

Roy: Despite what my goodbye message said, me rooting for you was a ploy to get people to target you for having favor in the jury house. I particularly don't know if you deserve to be there, Josh. What moves have you made that impacted the game that were either concocted by you or that you pulled off all by yourself? Try not to mention Heidi or Brian.

Hadar: What have you even done in this game besides sit pretty and make false promises?

Troy:  Do you really think you deserve to win? I mean come on…really. Seriously?! Do you? Do you really think your “gameplay” matched up to Heidi Louise and Brian’s? Let’s be real here and just throw in the towel. You were nothing but rude every time things didn’t go your way. Your jury management to me was awful, and you were incredibly hypocritical and disrespectful.

Kaitlyn:  I know we talked on and off throughout the game. I asked you for when I needed help and you asked for a favor (safety when I received that HoH) and I stayed good to my word. You know how I play as a game player, but I don't know where you stand as a game player. You were extremely shady when I talked to you, which, made me hesitate to even come to you about anything. You seemed to be riding coattails this entire game and hiding behind other people that were bigger targets than yourself because you were strategically and physically disabled to do anything in the game with your social, strategic, and competition skills (or lack thereof rather). I don't know if you talked to many people about the game or whether you just hid the entire game. So my question for you is this: How was it sucking Brian's dick all game to get to where you are?

Dan: Josh, it's no secret that I don't like you. So I'm going to take this opportunity to tell you why. I don't like your personality. I don't like the way you attack people for fun. I don't like the way you play these games. I don't like trying to bury the hatchet with you only to have it driven in my back over.. and over.. and over.. and over again. It's not cute and it's a disgusting strategy. You might believe I only dislike you and would never vote for you to win any of these games for personal reasons, but you're wrong. Your gameplay is one dimmensional. You employ the same floater strategy every game and try to be the most hated player in the game. But the thing is, I don't think you understand why people bring you so far int he games…. it's because everyone knows they can beat you. I don't want a response to this statement. I want you to sit there and be fucking silent for once in your life and not take up an attitude with me. I want you to sit there and realize that the reason you are where you are is because everyone knows they could beat you. You didn't play a good game, you didn't trick and fool anyone, you played a bad game, and that deserves a lot lower than third place. :~)

As a note, Heidi's questions are TBD. I know that Brian might be late and Louise as well, so you might want to answer these questions before tomorrow and give them to me. I will see you all (hopefully) around 10 PM EST!

The final eviction of the season...

Fabulous Final Four, please gather in the living room.

As you all know, three of the four of you will be facing the jury and will be in the final stage of this game. All of you have done everything you can do game wise, and now it is up to you to prove it to your previously evicted houseguests.

It's been a crazy summer, filled with twists, alliance, backstabs, surprise evictions, and tons of drama. Unfortunately, one last person needs to join the jury...

Louise will already be standing before the jury, but as for the other three:

Brian, as winner of POV, was given the option to use it on either Heidi or Josh, which would then put himself on the block.

Here is what he had to say:

i’m not using the veto

As always, Brian gives a groundbreaking veto speech.

Brian and Louise will both be members of the final three. However, Josh and Heidi.... Tonight, the journey will end for one of you.

Brian, as the sole voter this week, will cast his vote to evict...

"josh and heidi you both have been close friends of mine throughout the entire season and i’m sorry i have to end it for one of you

we’ve worked so hard to get here and i’m proud of all of us"

Heidi.

"heidi i have to evict you. solely because from what i’ve seen you’ve played the better game. i don’t know how the finale with 3 people will work but i know that you could potentially be taking some votes away from me if i take you with me. 

if you won this veto i hope you would’ve evicted me for the same reason. i hope you don’t hold it against me because i think you’re a wonderful person and a strong player and i’ve such had a great summer getting to know you. i know how much you love this game it really does break my heart to evict you i’m so sorry."

Heidi, I'm sorry, but please say your goodbyes.

As for Josh - CONGRATULATIONS, YOU HAVE MADE FINAL 3.

Josh, Brian, and Louise, the three of you have made it further than anyone else, and as far as you could possibly have come. Your fate now rests on the jury's hands.

Jury - I really do need your questions by tonight or tomorrow during the day, as one of the final three members needs to answer them ahead of time.

THE FINALE WILL TAKE PLACE THURSDAY AT 9:45 PM EST. 

The winner of Hella Big Brother will be crowned then!

See you soon ;)

With a time of 31:07, you have, unfortunately, not won the POV.

Which means congraulations Brian, with an impressive time of 18:00, you have won the final Power of Veto!

Your decision is due by Tuesday, September 2 at 11 PM EST.

If you decide not to use it, I would also like your vote to evict by then.

Good night, houseguests!
