As outgoing HOH, Goldd96 is BANNED from competing.
As you journey through this fantastic setting, you’re sure to experience various surprises, deceptions, and overall memorable events. You gaze over the fountain of reflection, thinking fondly or perhaps not so fondly about your adventure here. You try to recall everything that’s happening in this game so far, because you know that your ability to remember these events will be put to the test in the near future.
You will be playing “True or False?”
We will be giving you facts about this game or events that happened in the house chat, announcement posts, challenges, etc. Anything, really. You will then say True or False to the statement we’ve provided. If you are correct, you will get the next statement. If you are incorrect, the challenge ends and you will be scored based on how many statements you got correct. You have 15 seconds to answer from the moment the statement is posted, any longer and you will be eliminated. Hopefully you’ve been paying attention in this game!
Here is an example:
True or False: Jacob’s eviction on Week 1 was the only unanimous eviction vote so far. The answer here would be True. You may also Post “T” in short.
Simply message your DR when you are ready to begin the challenge. Once you are done, you are not allowed to talk about the questions at all, or give any kind of hint on what people should be studying for.
You have until 8PM EST tomorrow to start the challenge.
Jayden: I'm sorry Julia, I'm awful, I know. I promised that you wouldn't go up this week and I'm sorry that I'm reneging on that. I really did mean it at the time and planned to stick to my word, but scenarios have changed.
I'm going to address the elephant in the room here though... that being Kori.
Emily 100% screwed up your game this week by shining a giant magnifying glass on your double-dealing. Obviously Emily picking you over her obvious close ally in Julia was super suss, and that throw to you in the Veto competition was super transparent that I'm offended that it was thought that anyone would buy it.
And if the fact that literally every single person in the house besides Emily came to me and campaigned hard for you to be backdoored isn't a sign that people have lost trust in you I don't know what is. That's not an exaggeration either -- Anthony, Julia, Agus, Ryan, Sam, Matt & Jake all individually pitched the exact same plan to me! (And Emily was very aware of it).
But that's exactly why I'm not nominating you this week. I don't think there is anything to gain from evicting the house's undisputed target, and if you have the Holy Grail and I'm making a mistake by not flushing it out, then so be it.
My initial reasoning for the nominations stand. I've put up two people at the centre of both """"""sides""""" of the house. I'm looking forward to drawing a line in the sand and having an official answer to which side all the people playing the middle truly fall on.

Final nominations: Anthony & Julia
Houseguests, you have until 8PM EST tomorrow to send in your votes and goodbye messages. Jayden you have the same deadline to send in your goodbye messages, and the nominees have to send a goodbye message to each other.
Jake: Emily, I think it’s safe to say you’ve made some pretty interesting decisions this week. Fortunately for you, I love drama and intrigue. I want to use the Veto this week to reduce some of the holy grail rumors and narrow down eventual suspects as we approach the jury stage of the game where having 2 rounds of extra safety is going to be extremely advantageous for that person. I think collectively it’s up to the house to find whoever has it soon as the longer we wait, the less chances we all have of making it to the end.
