Houseguest Interview #1


$5 BBQ dollars if you answer by 8pm EST


~ Did you expect to be cast on Big Brother Quarantine All Stars & why?
~ Could you give me your thoughts on the Nightclub & all its components please?
~ Now for some gameplay, how does the house divided twist impact your game this round?

Anything else you would like to share?

Thank you for your time & have a good Tuesday.

1. I know I'm gonna sound cocky by saying this, but to be completely honest, I did lol I mean, I was Plastique Tiara in BBQ1, the original season. That was a great season that set the tone for the rest of this series, and I was a huge part of it. I was also robbed as Liza. I don't think this is a controversial statement. To be fair, I know my performance as AOC wasn't the best, but I've never placed below 7th, so I'm very consistent as well.

2. Not to be disrespectful, but I absolutely hate it. No offense, but I feel as though it is too complicated and will mess with the game too much. I do think it's a fun idea on a surface level, like the idea of a nightclub existing within the BB house IS fun, but in terms of how it will most likely affect the game, I'm not a fan.

3. I don't think it'll impact my game this round much, tbh. I've dealt with multiple team twists in my BBQ career so I'm not phased by it. All I know is that there's a good chance that I'll be picked to play in the veto, and that will be an opportunity for me to earn some extra BBQ money.

Thank you for your feedback. The BBQ money has evolved a lot since you last played & it has grown more complicated it's true. I would say that so far the game itself has not been hugely affected by it though (looking at seasons past) so I hope you grow to like it more <3

Right, I was just thinking about how it's been a long time since I last played... 
There have been 6 seasons since, so some changes are definitely to be expected.
How the veto players are selected now is another example too.

Yeah, I mean I'm definitely open to changing my mind!
Maybe once I get used to it, I'll start to see it in a more positive light.

I forget what I did for season 5 now, but season 6 was an auction house. Season 7 was a casino, season 8 was a Pokemon battle & shop & season 9 was Diagon Alley with a potion shop & wand making shop to cast spells. The Nightclub is probably the most high tech one yet, but it's close to Diagon Alley if you want to go check it out

~ How are you liking the season so far? Hosting, cast, challenges, etc?

I'm loving this season so far!
The only thing I'm not crazy about is the BBQ nightclub twist, but other than that this season has been great.
The purge, although very torturous, was a great twist though.
I found it interesting that no HOH was crowned in week 1.
I think that made it possible for us to socialize in a way that didn't have any external influences.

~ Do you feel like it's living up to being an All Stars season? Explain

Absolutely. I mean, two very close votes in a row? Come on lol
I feel like everyone left in this game now is a very good player, the cast is absolutely amazing and the level of gameplay has been one level above regular seasons.
I've played three seasons, but never have I ever felt like this at final 18.

~ How is your personal game going so far? Explain

It's going well, I hope.
I've been laying very low, but I think I have some connections I can utilize later on in the game when I start to play more aggressively.
I would describe my game this season as AOC but upgraded.
I'm in a similar position, but with more possibilities that are available to me and some actual allies.

~ Do you have a specific target right now? If yes, who?

Not really. I'm trying to play the middle here.
But if I had to pick someone, Steve.
Although I don't think I'm at the top of his hit list, he's a very strong competitor and a big threat to 7th Heaven in general.

~ What are your thoughts on people making group chats pre game to talk about possibly being cast on this season. Do you feel like that's cheating & what would you do if you were the host?

I think that's horrendous and that's not something I'd condone.
I'm not sure what I would do if I were in your shoes though, I'd have to think long and hard about it if I were the host.
