Super Victory has been achieved!

Congratulations Hoggmaster, you got all the answers correct and have won the Power of Veto.

You can choose to remove yourself or Dutchy from the block or you can choose not to use it at all.

You need to make your intentions known in this thread by 3:30PM Wednesday.

I will announce answers later on, I'm off to football.

 

[Hoggmaster]

I'll remove myself please. Sorry Dutchy

 

[pennywisealfie]

Seejay, Hoggmaster has vetoed one of your nominations and now you must name a replacement nominee.

You can't name yourself (HOH) or Hoggmaster (Veto winner).

Please name your replacement nominee in this thread by 8:30PM Wednesday.

 

[SeeJay]

[pennywisealfie]

Houseguests, it's time to vote.

Dutchy & Misanthrope, as the 2 nominees, you are ineligible to vote. Seejay, as Head of Household, you will only vote in the event of a tie.

The rest of the houseguests, please PM me with who you wish to eliminate. Either Dutchy or Misanthrope.

[SeeJay]

[Misanthrope]

It's like roulette. I don't know whether I've been blown by a boy or a girl until I go for the subtle grope.

 

[SeeJay]

"Am I gay today?"
*Feels the crotch.*
"Yup!!"

 

[pennywisealfie]
