Brian's British Questions

[Brian Hart]

Hi.

So i was evicted for fear that i could have win this, having apparently played a better game than the both of you, but i can't win, and now i have to vote for one of you. Coming into this questioning my vote is totally open, it can be either of yours, so these answers will be very important.

Angie

1. Did you, at any point, mostly towards the end of the game, plan on taking me to the final 2 at all? I was 100% honest with everything i told you and you just stabbed in the back without a care in the world, it really seems like you never had my back in this game.

2. Me, you, Jordan final 3, you're the final HoH, who do you take? Bearing in mind everything that has happened in the game. Who played a better game would you say, myself or Jordan? I want positive's and negative's to both our game plans.

3. You evicted me based on the fact you don't think you would have beaten me in the final 2, this brings up major factors as to why i could never vote for you now. Nothing personal. But you seem to lack confidence in your game and had to take 'the easy win' as you obviously don't think you played that good of a game to take home the title of URTV 9 winner. So i need to know why you don't think you played that good of a game as me and how i played more superiorly to yourself.

4. Had it had been you and myself in the final 2, how do you think the votes would have broken down and why?

5. Lacking confidence in your game i need to know what strategic and game changing moves you made, you're top 3 please, and don't include evicting me as 1 of them.

Pickle Head

1. You, me, Russell, final 3, you're the final HoH, who do you take with you and why?

2. Who would you have taken to the end out of Angie and myself and why?

3. You seem to have played a very UTR and quiet game, but it worked, you where never really a target of anyones and made it to the final 2, but i need to know, what strategic, game changing moves did you make? Or did you just rely on Russell and myself to get you to where you are?

4. What flaws did you have in your game plan and where would you have improved any actions you made?

5. Apple's, Banana's or Pickle's? You have to live off of one of them for the rest of your life, which one do you pick?

I want full, honest answers, any BS at all and you can say goodbye to your vote from me.

My name is Brian, not fool.

Angie

1. Did you, at any point, mostly towards the end of the game, plan on taking me to the final 2 at all? I was 100% honest with everything i told you and you just stabbed in the back without a care in the world, it really seems like you never had my back in this game.

~I went back and forth in my head who I wanted in the finals with me after Kevin was evicted. I didn't know if I wanted you, Jordan, or Pickle Head. For most of the merge, I wanted Pickle Head in the finals with me. But right about the time I was on the block vs Michele, I really started to lose trust in him him (and rightfully so). That's when I relied mostly on you. Going into the final 3 challenge, I was actually heart set on taking you. But I didn't want to let a personal relationship affect the game. I'm not about "taking my friends" to the finals. I wanna do the best thing for my game. I truly did have your back this game; I just couldn't make a game worthy mistake right at the end.

2. Me, you, Jordan final 3, you're the final HoH, who do you take? Bearing in mind everything that has happened in the game. Who played a better game would you say, myself or Jordan? I want positive's and negative's to both our game plans.

~Honestly, I think I would have taken Jordan. I think you both played amazing games, but she had more enemies than you did. I think you played a better social game, but she played the better physical game. I feel like she might have relied too much on the wrong people, but her challenge wins kinda balanced that out. I feel like in a sense, you trusted me too much. You also trusted Russell too much until he kindly threw you under the bus. But you both were extremely likable, tried your best at challenges, and that's nothing to be ashamed of.

3. You evicted me based on the fact you don't think you would have beaten me in the final 2, this brings up major factors as to why i could never vote for you now. Nothing personal. But you seem to lack confidence in your game and had to take 'the easy win' as you obviously don't think you played that good of a game to take home the title of URTV 9 winner. So i need to know why you don't think you played that good of a game as me and how i played more superiorly to yourself.

~It's not that I lack confidence in my game. I'm actually really proud of the way I played, and I truly do think I deserve the win. We were like, partners in the game. The only thing was, I was the one making the enemies. You didn't offend nearly as many people as I did. If we're the good cop/bad cop scenario, I don't want to be in the finals with the good cop. It would be a slaughter. It's not that I think your game is "better" than mine because honestly I don't. I think I played the best. I made sure the final four was all people who said they would have taken me to the finals. While Pickle Head says he wouldn't have, that's fine. I still trusted him more than I trusted Russell, so I'm glad he stayed. I was in a different alliance before the merge, but I flipped when I saw the timing was right. That was a game changing move for me. I still managed to be in good graces with the other alliance, and I still worked really closely with Jordan. Pickle Head himself said had he won, he would have taken you to the finals because he thought he had a better shot against you. That in itself kinda shows that he knows I played better. He told me as soon as I won the challenge "congrats on winning the game." He thought he had a better shot against you, but this wasn't his choice to make. He knows I played a good game, and he himself didn't think he could beat me. That should speak volumes about the way I played.

4. Had it had been you and myself in the final 2, how do you think the votes would have broken down and why?

Jeff: I hope would have voted for me. Jeff and I were good allies this game, and I hoped he would have been able to look past what happened the round he left and still vote for me.
Jerry: You. No question. Jerry hates me haha. He probably hates you a lot less than he hates me. But he dislikes everyone.
Memphis: You. Memphis and I barely had a relationship this game. There's no way he would have voted for me over you.
Michele: Me. I think I could get Michele's vote. Michele and I were closer than most people thought. Plus I didn't evict her, so maybe I would have that against you? She's a wild card though.
Russell: You. For sure. There's no way Russell will be voting for me either. We had a very clear cut route that we were both taking, and it was to get each other out. We can respect each other, but I don't expect his vote against either you or Pickle Head.
Jordan: Me. You evicted her. She and I were super close. Yeah, I don't see a single way you could have won her vote against me. Love you girl.
Pickle Head: I think he would have voted for you. I would have evicted him. I don't think he's the bitter type, but I think he and Russell would want someone in their original final 3 to win.

5. Lacking confidence in your game i need to know what strategic and game changing moves you made, you're top 3 please, and don't include evicting me as 1 of them.

~Number one: Deciding to flip between my two alliances. I never would have gotten here if I had stayed true to my original allies. Kevin, Dan, and Jeff all left back to back. I was a sinking ship if I would have stuck with them. So I played both sides, while both sides still trusted me (for the most part).
~Number two: Convincing Jordan to put Pickle Head/Russell on the block together. We had a very long conversation about what would be the best idea. At first, she wanted to put up You/Russell. I brought up the fact that we should have a deal, and I told you the same. Once we got all that sorted out, it was really clear that Pickle Head/Russell had to be up together. I knew they wouldn't vote each other out, and that way even if Russell won veto, we had an option to preserve our final 3.

~Number three: Making final 2's with multiple people. By making final 2 deals with you, Jordan, Pickle Head, and Kevin way back when, I had several options of which way I could go to the finals. I could throw competitions and let y'all take me, which I did to an extent. Or I could win, and do what I need to do to get here. While at first I did want to throw the final HOH, I'm glad I won it. I wouldn't be here if I didn't win, and now I have a shot at winning this.

Brian, I know we've had a great relationship, and I hope we can move past all the personal stuff. You're a great friend, I miss our talks <3. But with everything being said, I have more than enough confidence in my game. I think I played it amazingly, and the person sitting next to me didn't even want to be with me in the finals because he didn't think he could beat me. It's not that I think I played a worse game than you, Brian, but you have less enemies than I do. Pickle Head also has less enemies than I do, but he still didn't think he can beat me? To me, that says a lot about my game. I hope you can respect the way I played and look past the personal stuff. Cause we really were (hopefully are) good friends. Thanks for your time, I appreciate all your questions

Pickle Head

1. You, me, Russell, final 3, you're the final HoH, who do you take with you and why?

Hey Bri!

Yes, we did have a final 3. If I had won the final HoH, I would have chosen to take Russell to the Final 2, and I'll tell you why.

First reason being, myself and Russ had a Final 2 deal, and I would have wanted to honor that. Russ is someone that does not play on completely emotional game but I do feel that if I screwed him over that close to the end I would definitely lose a much needed vote to win, whereas we never had any final 2 deal, so I don't really think you could be pissed at me for it, especially when we both has such a strong connection to Angie and by keeping you I would risk not getting her vote whereas if I took Russ I would probably get her vote.

Second major reason, although he played a game, I think that one little period where he was trying to get Jordan out of the game for reasons based on SBB would work against him as a lot of people didn't respect that. Some people might not vote for him simply because he took another game into this one, and a lot of people don't like that. That flaw could have helped out my game majorly in the final 2.

2. Who would you have taken to the end out of Angie and myself and why?

As stated, I would have chosen to take you to the Final 2. Although me and Angie played similar games here, and I played just as good, if not better, her game was more "out there" and "up-front" if you will. This, in turn, is NOT what I wanted for my game, as I think it puts you out there. While I was making big moves and alliances, I wanted to be less obvious about it and fly under the radar.

I feel like you also did a bit of the same thing, which would make it harder to differentiate between my game and your game. Being a self-admittedly pretty good speaker, I think I would have stood a great chance against you. Just because Angie's game was more "loud" and "out in the open" doesn't mean it was better.

Plus, an all apple final 2 would have been awesome.

3. You seem to have played a very UTR and quiet game, but it worked, you where never really a target of anyones and made it to the final 2, but i need to know, what strategic, game changing moves did you make? Or did you just rely on Russell and myself to get you to where you are?

I think to say that I relied on Russell and you to GET me to where I am would be absolutely ludicrous. I think by me being here it got you guys ahead just as much as you guys being here got me ahead.

My game was "quiet" and "UTR", but as mentioned, that's how I wanted to appear. However, behind-the-scenes, I was manipulating a lot.

When the houses divided, along with you, I was a major part in getting Ronnie out of the game. The others aside from Brian and Russ (as it wasn't in their best interest) wanted to keep Ronnie in the game. However, I absolutely did not like Ronnie, and he was no ally of mine by any means. I was the swing vote this round, and I used this opportunity to take Ronnie out of the game.

I then developed my alliance with you and Russ on TOP of the alliance(s) I already had with Jordan and Angie. The alliances I had with Angie and Jordan were technically separate (I don't think we ever discussed it as one big alliance), but it pretty much was a three-person alliance.

Once the merge hit, your target was Jordan. However, Jordan would be essential to me, not only as moral support in this game and a good friend, but as a strategic move. I needed Dan out. I was hoping Dan would be taken out in the "divided house" stage, especially when he was switched into Bacon's house.

Dan was my biggest threat in this game. Smart, strategic, good at competitions, and not with close ties to Pickle Head. Despite what you wanted, I needed to make the moves to take him out.

I convinced enough people to vote out Dan rather than Jordo, and got the majority to do the same. I promised Russ that Ang would work with our alliance and that he may patch some things up with Jordan by keeping her, and he eventually agreed.

The next round, I wanted to keep Russ around, so I went to work on getting the votes for Russ to stay and for Jeff to go, as although we were close, I knew he was closer to the likes of Angie and Jordan.

This worked as well.

Two rounds later, I got Memphis out, as you wanted to do the same. I was pretty much "the decider" as if it was a tie, we know you would have evicted Memphis, but if it wasn't, Michele would have to leave 3-1. However, Russ wanted to vote how I voted, and stuck with voting Memphis, which caused the girls to do the same, to avoid the situation with Michele in a tie.

Next round, when Jordan used the Veto on herself, I went to work on Russ. He was actually contemplating nominating me or you over Michele, which I did not want by any means. I wanted no chance of either of us going, so I played the "guilt trip" card, talked to Russ about how it didn't make sense to put us up, and got Michele up. This put me in a good position because with either Angie or Michele leaving, it would be a good outcome for me personally. Angie was already an ally that would take me to the end as she thinks on game and thinks she has a better shot at winning against me, whereas Michele was willing to offer me the world to get ahead and really didn't have anyone else at that point in the game.

From there on out, like I have said, it was a pretty easy ride to the end of the game. Both of my sides were going "against" each other, so I had a smooth sailing time to the finale. Russ wanted Angie and Jordan out, they wanted him out, Jordan wanted you out, and you wanted Jordan out. But no one wanted me out over the others. Which is exactly why I tried to play so low-key this whole game when I in fact organized the final 5 we came out to be, to best suit me.

In the end, it was the fact that I played low-key and a seemingly "worse" game than you that made Angie choose me to come here over you, when in fact I did a lot more than people think. However, to get votes to win and tell your story, you need to make it here first. Making it here was always a huge thing in the back of my mind, hence staying more "below the radar" but NOT[/u] playing this game UTR.

4. What flaws did you have in your game plan and where would you have improved any actions you made?

I would have to say one flaw I had was not talking to Memphis or Jerry enough or earlier in the game. I went until almost final 10/final 9 in this game without talking to either of them and having a real conversation. As evidenced, had I talked to Memphis more, I could have had the advantage in getting his vote. In an emergency situation in that they made final 5 or final 4 with me, this could have been trouble, whereas if I had talked to them it would have changed a lot.

I think one other flaw was that I underrated the relationship that you and Angie had. I knew that you two were extremely close but I didn't realize JUST how close you two were until about Final 6. I still wouldn't really have done anything about it as it benefited me to have both of you around when I did, but I simply should have realized you were THAT close before I did.

5. Apple's, Banana's or Pickle's? You have to live off of one of them for the rest of your life, which one do you pick?

I would have to say pickles. Apples and bananas get old and can go rotten, whereas pickles in that jar seem like they could stay good and fresh forever. Like a twinkie. Pickles are juicy, they taste amazing, go good with anything, and Snooki is a supporter. How could I go against Snooki? That's just a sin.
