We've got a phenomenal start to this game, with tons of early drama, and a great cast playing the game very very hard. I'm loving it.
This week we got 2 new cast mates, screwing up my initial predictions. We also got the return of "fan favorite" battle of the block, but I'll deal with all of that, because I am loving this cast. I think we've got a GREAT mix of gamers and crazies.
1. Audrey
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 10
Strategic: 10
Showplay: 300
Alliances: Too Many
Awards: Too hard too fast, Star of the Show, Personal Favorite
Audrey is fantastic television. She is the clear star of the show, at least for now. She won't last very long, in large part because she can't stop playing the game.
As for her actual gameplay, I kept wanting to give her some credit, but she kept digging a giant hole for herself. She started at least ten different alliances, and spent her time lying to everybody. People eventually compared notes, and eruptions followed.
Surprisingly, she started a bit of a revolution, and should have had the ammo to get it going, but the Revolutionaries weren't willing to fight for Jace, and so an end was put to that. I'm hoping Audrey can stay around, but I think she's week 3 or 4 at the absolute latest.
2. Austin
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 20
Strategic: 40
Showplay: 40
Alliances: Shelltown, Sleeper Cell
Awards: Saved
I am not very impressed with Austin. The guy has muscles, and brains, he has a good read on the house. But he is doing nothing with that. He had a connection with Jace, and he allowed that to paint a giant target on his back, but when the opportunity to try and save Jace arrived, he let it go by without taking it.
3. Becky
Comp Bonus Points: 30
Social: 20
Strategic: 0
Showplay: 10
Alliances: N/A
Awards: Coaster Female
Coaster. She does nothing.
4. Clay
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 40
Strategic: 40
Showplay: 60
Alliances: See Audrey
Awards: Eye Candy
Clay is very attractive. He's kind of a bore, but he's playing the game very hard. He's got a great demeanor, and he looks good, so he could very well be a good player this season. His early ties with Audrey might cost him, but if he can get through that, he should be fine.
5. Da'Vonne
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 30
Strategic: 40
Showplay: 170
Alliances: High Rollers,
Awards: DR Queen
Da is feeds gold as well. She's a bad ass, and she'll bring the drama. She'll leave around the same time as Audrey. She might outlast her by a week at most.
6. Jace
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 0
Strategic: 0
Showplay: 130
Alliances: Shelltown
Awards: First Boot
Fun first boot. He brought his own crazy brand of drama, and had several explosions all over the house.
7. James
Comp Bonus Points: 25
Social: 50
Strategic: 50
Showplay: 70
Alliances: The Main Group
Awards: 1st HOH
James played a decent first week game. He had HOH, he got people to mostly trust him. He's a decent player. I'm not giving a ton of comp bonus points, largely because of how epically close that HOH comp was at the end. What a finish!
8. John
Comp Bonus Points: 30
Social: 40
Strategic: 0
Showplay: 10
Alliances: N/A
Awards: I don't get it, fan favorite?
John is a male coaster, who the internet loves.
9. Liz
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 20
Strategic: 30
Showplay: 30
Alliances: Shelltown
Awards: Twin Confusion?
Liz is the twin. I hope she makes it to the reveal, but she's not much of a strategic entity.
10. Jason Roy
Comp Bonus Points: 30
Social: 70
Strategic: 70
Showplay: 120
Alliances: Big One
Awards: Sassymouth
Jason is a fun player. He's Dae's #2. He's great in the DR. He's playing a decent social and strategic game. He's much cooler headed than Dae, and he could keep going after Dae goes.
11. Meg
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 90
Strategic: 80
Showplay: 30
Alliances: Big One plus,
Awards: Best Player of the Week
I think Meg is currently playing the best game. She's trusted by everyone, and she's in pretty much every alliance. But people aren't on to her. Good for her.
12. Steven
Comp Bonus Points: 40
Social: 30
Strategic: 30
Showplay: 20
Alliances: N/A
Awards: N/A
Steve is likeable, and he's gaining info. We'll see if he can do anything with that information.
13. Shelli
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 40
Strategic: 30
Showplay: 50
Alliances: Clay
Awards: Showmance
Shelli is attracted to Clay. Not much else to talk about with her game.
14. Vanessa
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 40
Strategic: 50
Showplay:10
Alliances: Sleeper Cell
Awards: Jumping off my Pre-Season Pick
Vanessa is playing a pretty solid game right now. She's doing the best of the Outsiders, but I need to see her to more before I go back to endorsing her as a winner pick.
15. Jeff
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 40
Strategic: 60
Showplay: 10
Alliances: Big One plus
Awards: Meh
He's a loud aggressive player, but he's doing okay right now.
16. Jackie
Comp Bonus Points:
Social: 30
Strategic: 20
Showplay: 10
Alliances: Sort of?
Awards: Big Brother Crush
She's hot, but Meh in terms of entertainment.
