*Disclaimer: Everything you will see in this series are depictions of storylines that are made up from autonomous actions between the sims. I have no control of their actions or relationships, I will only be commenting on what they do, and try to make storylines out of it for dramatic effect. No competitions or eliminations will be rigged, everything that happens is of their own free will. Some scenes may be enhanced on a separate save file just for storytelling purposes, but in no way will effect their friendships or relationships in the real game. I hope you enjoy Season 9!!*
This Season on Big Brother... The Sims will be pushed like never before as Three Major Twists will be standing between them and the 500k Simoleon Prize! This Season, 14 will compete from all walks of life, and the house/twists will be based around Holidays & Seasons! If you haven't seen the House Tour, click above and check it out.
Immediately following the sims entrance into the new house, they are called to the nomination room. This has never happened before, so everyone is on high alert. They all seem to look to each other for answers. What's about to happen?!
Bradley and Macy were told to sit on the nomination block... With no idea what is about to happen, the entire house is informed that Bradley and Macy have been selected as part of a special twist that will go into effect the next morning and have a major impact on the start of this game. They are then set free for the rest of the night to mingle and get to know each other. Tomorrow, they find out the twist, and the games will begin. Expect the unexpected!
That night, everyone is tired and most of the sims go right to bed. But Naomi wastes no time finding someone to single out, and starts going in on Elliot. He's completely taken aback by her insane rant and doesn't know how to react.
What is Naomi up to? This seemed like some sort of strategy to rile up Elliot. I think she could sense that he has anger issues.
Carson immediately clings on to Helen. They really hit it off that night. I think Carson can sense that she's rich. He IS drawn to people of a higher caliber.
Elliot seems really shaken by his argument with Naomi and vents to himself in the bathroom. He never expected for a blow up to happen on day one, he's feeling a little worried that he may not be able to keep his temper down as well as he thought he could.
Naomi continues to stir up trouble and butts in on Helen and Carson's conversation, calling them both out for gameplaying on Night 1. She is paranoid that they are forming an alliance and attempts to keep it from happening. Helen is completely unphased by her insane actions, and Carson has never dealt with such an abrasive character in his life, it's shocking for him.
Carson continues to mingle the next morning, this time with Meredith, but it seems that Naomi is always close by and watching him. I think Naomi sees him as a threat. and wants to call him out as a gameplayer any chance she gets.
Everett and Greyson wake up and have a great conversation in the kitchen, they really seem to be hitting it off early in the game.
Gerald, being the genius he is, starts probing Bradley with questions. He really wants to know about this twist that's coming into play today, and he thinks Bradley knows something. But Bradley seems just as confused as he is. They have a pretty good conversation overall.
Felicity is excited to be here and tries to get everyone pumped up with a little morning time dancing to no music. I think she wants to be the lovable one of the house but I think it's a little too early for that kind of energy Felicity!
Elliot is still in a bad mood from the night before and makes a comment to Greyson. As Elliot soon finds out, Greyon is no pushover and bites right back. The two get in a very heated discussion, it doesn't look like they are going to be best buddies in the house.
Meredith attempts to cook a meal for the house to get on everyone's good side, but sadly for her, it was only normal quality and she gets no points for it. (In HollieBB Rules, if a Sim makes an excellent quality meal for the entire house to enjoy, they get +10 Friendship with everyone. It didn't ever happen in Season 8, so I didn't see a need to mention this rule. If you ever feel confused by any of the rules or don't know how this challenge works, go check out the Rules Document that HollieBB Created. It does a great job of explaining everything. I don't play it exactly the same way she does, but overall, I follow them pretty closely!)
Naomi continues to pick fights with people in the house. This time, she singles out Helen. She really doesn't seem to like her or Carson, and wants them to know it..... Now, it's time for the First Twist of the Season!! Are you excited to find out what it is?! It's a big one!!
Bradley and Macy are finally called forth in front of the Giant Christmas Tree that looms over the house. This Tree and the presents beneath it will be playing a major part in the entire season, and because Bradley and Macy were voted in by the fans, they will be the first two to take part!
THE NAUGHTY OR NICE TWIST
This Season, each rotation will start out with every sim in the house grabbing a present. The Sim to get the gift with the highest price tag will be granted immunity for the entire rotation! But, as we all know, you can't have a winner without a loser. On the other hand, the Sim to pull the lowest priced gift will be singled out, losing their privilege to play in the HoH Competition for that rotation, and will also lose all of their voting potential in the next vote. If one of their allies is on the block, they can't help them, their Friendship Points wont count and neither will their alliances. (The only exception is in Alliances of Three, if they are in an alliance with another person aside from the Naughty Sim, the alliance will still count) This is GAME CHANGER and will be in play until the Top 6! Getting the Naughty Gift could completely blindside someone in this game, and I can't wait to see how it plays out! (Following this "special rotation", EVERYONE will be picking gifts for this each week, but for Week 1 it will be done a little differently.)
There is going to be a 3 Week Split House where Bradley and Macy will select 6 Sims Each in a draft style pick, based on their highest relationships. One Sim will be rolled to pick first, then the other sim gets to pick, until no sims are left to pick from. Since they haven't really been given a chance to get to know the other sims in the house just yet, they will be given an opportunity to talk to the sims one on one and hear them out. The person the sims choose to talk to will be based on a random roll of 1 or 2. These interactions could be good or bad for them, and will ultimately be the deciding factor in which side they will end up on. Following the Draft, Bradley and Macy will each grab a present, and the sim to pull the highest priced gift will earn immunity for the week for their entire side! Because Bradley and Macy are put in this impossible situation on Week 1, they will also be completely immune from eviction this week, regardless of if their side wins or loses. On the Flip Side, The Vulnerable 6 will be the only sims competing in the First HoH Competition, and can only nominate their new found allies for eviction! This twist is crazy! Let's find out how the campaigning goes, shall we?!
NAUGHTY OR NICE TWIST CAMPAIGNING
Helen asked Bradley if they could meet in the Thanksgiving Room to talk, but she was fast asleep by the time he got there, No Change Added.
Macy felt like Carson was coming off like an entitled brat and had no interest in listening to him. It was awful, -20 Friendship between Carson and Macy.
Gerald really butters up Bradley, and wants to tell him how much he appreciated their nice conversation earlier. They have a good chat. +10 Friendship between Bradley and Gerald.
It seems like Macy is completely triggered by the men in the house. No wonder you can't keep a man, girl. She goes off on Greyson and she did not like what he had to say. -20 Friendship between Macy and Greyson.
Meredith attempts to chat with Bradley, but gets interrupted by Anaya. Because of this, she doesn't have an opportunity to talk game. No Change Added.
It seems Macy doesn't find all the men in the house to be pigs. She thinks Duncan is sweet and really seems to like him. They have a good talk. +10 Friendship between Duncan and Macy.
Bradley really gets Anaya and her quirky personality. They click really well and have a good talk. +10 Friendship between Bradley and Anaya.
Felicity MEANT to talk to Bradley, but she ate too much and fell asleep before getting an opportunity to chat with anyone. No Change Added.
Bradley really doesn't seem to like Everett. There's just something about him that sets him off. Whether he reminds him of someone in his past, or just comes off as fake, Bradley isn't willing to hear anything he has to say. -20 Friendship between Bradley and Everett.
Once again, seemingly triggered by the men in the house, Macy thinks Elliot is being wayy too controlling, and is trying to tell her what she should do with this power. His aggressive personality really puts her off. -10 Friendship between Macy and Elliot.
Bradley feels like Noelle is trying wayyy too hard. She tried to tell him what he should do, and it came off a little too controlling. -10 Friendship between Noelle and Bradley.
Naomi doesn't care to campaign to either of them. She's just going to relax in the hot tub and enjoy herself here. No Change Added.
NAUGHTY OR NICE CAMPAIGNING END
And with that, it's now time for the two leaders to make their selections! By random draw, Macy was picked to go first! Are you ready to find out how the sides turn out?! Do you have any idea based on the campaigning how it's going to go?! Let's find out!
THE 3 WEEK HOUSE SPLIT RESULTS
Macy is the first to pick and really felt like Duncan was a genuine guy and someone she wants on her side in this game. He is the first pick of the draft. Following this pick, she chooses Helen, Everett, Felicity, Naomi, and Noelle is her final pick. Noelle really seems to be playing the game a little too hard early on and people are finding that a little off putting. These 7 Sims gain +20 Friendship with each other, and lose -10 Friendship with the other side of the house! There is going to be a clear early divide in the house.
For Bradley's side, he really hit it off with Gerald, and he was the obvious first pick. Following Gerald, he picks Anaya, Meredith, Carson and Greyson last... With the final two to select, it came down to Noelle and Elliot. Both of them were controlling in their campaigning, and Macy ended up picking Noelle, which meant Elliot joined Bradley's side by default. These 7 Sims gain +20 Friendship with each other, and lose -10 Friendship with the other side of the house!
Elliot is really coming off unlikable and it's not looking too good for him in the game so far. He's been arguing quite a bit in the house and it seems like it's hard for him to control his temper. I'm not sure how long he can last in this game.
It seems like Naomi's plan to rile up Elliot on the first night is paying off. She awakened his negative side, and it's putting a target on his back. This is allowing her to skate by unnoticed currently, and she hopes this will last a while longer to give her some more time in the game to stir up some drama for the cameras.
Noelle was very close to not being selected. She has made some early moves that have put a question mark in peoples minds. I think she needs to tone down her gameplay if she wants to remain safe in this game.
AN OLD TWIST REVAMPED
Following the draft, the houseguests are reminded of a Twist that has been used in the past. If brave enough to put their game in the hands of fate, The Haunted Wing is now open for sims to take a chance at the Returning Trick or Treat Bowl! This can really help their games if they feel like they are in any danger. But, as they all know from past seasons, there's as much chance to get something bad as there is to get something good, so it's a definite risk. This Season, the Trick or Treat Twist will be done a little differently. Instead of being available all the way to Final 4, it will only be available until the Top 9 (aka Jury), after that the twist will fade away and the Haunted Wing will be locked. It's been reworked to feature rolls, rather than a set trick or treat. Unlike Previous Seasons, each week, the Trick or Treat Reaction will change, regardless of if any sims get one or not. If you've never seen the Trick or Treat Twist, this is how it works. There are 5 Reactions You can get from the Treat Bowl. (Green Hand/White Mist/Green Mist/Pop Up Ghost/Explosion) Each week, a Trick Reaction and Treat Reaction will be set, and the first sim to get either one will be met with a 1-6 Roll to determine what they will receive! Here's a look at the possible rolls they can get this season, reworked to fit The HollieBB Ruleset!
As you can see, these Trick/Treat Rolls are MAJOR game changers that could really shake up the game! Add that on top of the Naughty or Nice Twist that will also be in play, we could be seeing some crazy rotations as the Season progresses. I hope you're excited for the return of Trick or Treat! The first Treat Reaction in place will be the White Mist, and the first Trick Reaction will be the Pop-Up Ghost! They can try their luck with the Treat Bowl at any time they want until both have been played for the week. Following this, the Treat Bowl will be removed until the next rotation. Now, let's find out which side will be safe for Week 1 as Bradley and Macy pick their gifts!
THE NAUGHTY OR NICE REVEAL
Bradley and Macy grab a gift at random. With both of them in charge of a team of 6 Sims, a lot is riding on this. Losing out on this and being the cause of 6 Sims possibly facing eviction on the first week could be devastating for their game! Who do you think is going to secure immunity for their side?!
Macy does it! She is able to get Immunity for Duncan, Helen, Everett, Felicity, Naomi and Noelle for Week 1! She managed to open a $275 Teapot in comparison to Bradleys $250 Gravestone. Macy couldn't be more relieved. She is praised by her side of the house and the weight is off of her shoulders!
Sadly for Bradley, his side of the house is now in danger, and one of them is definitely going home this week. Gerald, Anaya, Meredith, Carson, Greyson and Elliot are all going to be competing in the next HoH Competition, and the winner can only name people on their side of the house to put on the block. This twist could be devastating, and could definitely be putting a major player out of the game early!
Duncan is the first person to try for a Treat Reaction, but no luck, he needs the White Mist, not the Green Mist. Because this reaction doesn't fit either of the set reactions, No Conflict Added. (There will be a lot of these as the season goes on, with sims only pulling dud reactions, I probably won't be covering these in the future because it's not going to be relevant to the story. I just wanted to show you that a lot of sims will be trying for these with no luck and I'll be featuring the winners and losers.)
Macy heads to the Winter Bedroom for a nice nap and sleeps like a baby. She did her job and has nothing to worry about this week.
Bradley is racked with guilt and feels responsible for making his side of the house vulnerable, he thinks he needs to try and lighten the mood to get people back on his side. He starts singing in the kitchen for everyone to hear. He doesn't want to be in danger next week for whats happened.
Noelle weathers the storm outside and chances The Haunted Wing! It pays off for her! She gets a Treat Roll! What do you think she got?!
Noelle gets a New Alliance Treat Roll. She feels closest to Duncan so far in the game and picks him to join her. This New Alliance boosts their friendship by +30, and is the First Alliance to form of the Season! It seems that maybe her gameplay IS paying off.
Following the news that his side will be in danger this week, Greyson begins working the other side of the house and putting himself in conversations with a lot of people. He wants to make sure he's doing what he has to do to keep from going home on Week 1.
Even though they are on opposite sides of the house, Felicity really seems to be interested in getting to know Bradley. I think they have a lot of similar traits, but are so different at the same time. It's quite the odd couple.
Because of the unfortunate position they've found themselves in, Meredith and Gerald bond over some chess and discuss what they should do to remain in the game. Gerald seems to notice that this girl is a lot more intelligent than she looks.
THE HOH COMPETITION
The Vulnerable Six now compete in a Dance-A-Thon to determine who will be deciding the fates of their new found allies, and the thunderstorm outside couldn't be more fitting for the set of circumstances they are in. Because the other houseguests are immune this week, they will NOT be competing in the HoH Competition! This means only Elliot/Greyson/Meredith/Carson/Anaya or Gerald will win it! Though the other houseguests can't compete in the HoH Competition, they will be able to Campaign, can be picked for random selection in the Veto Comp, and will be able to vote at the eviction ceremony! Also, because Bradley lost the Naughty or Nice Twist for the week, he lost his ability to play in the HoH and his vote/alliances will not count in the coming eviction if by chance he gets any alliances by then. Luckily for him, he's immune this week as the Leader of the House Split, so he doesn't need to win HoH. As for the other 6, this major twist has put them in a terrible situation very early on, and they all need to win it! Who will save themselves from the threat of eviction?! Find out next time on Big Brother!!
Hope you enjoyed this introductory episode into Season 9! Next Episode, we will find out who wins HoH and who inevitably gets evicted! This rotation was just too action packed to fit all into one post, so I'm going to break it up into two parts! Let me know what you think so far on Twitter! Episode 2 will be here soon!
