Well, last week was pretty interesting. Alison won the Head of Household and nominated Jun and Dana. Robert won the POV and did NOT use it on either of his alliance mates.

Dana pushed pretty hard during the week to give Robert guilt over the use of that POV; with Erika she went with they are getting rid of the girls, you're going up next; but in the end, she was evicted 6-0. The alliances were shuffled again over the past week. It appears that who is the Head of Household can effect so much with this particular group.

alliance /al.li.ance/: 1) (n) a union to promote common interests
My thought of an alliance and their thoughts are a little off...I'm a stick to it person, but from the definition, they've mastered it: Common interests change weekly (namely the HOH)

Time to track down the alliances in the house again on this, the morning after the new HOH has been named...Justin.

Current Alliances:

*The Blonde Hotties* Nate/Alison

Alison and Nate formed this alliance from the first week when Nathan become the Head of House. They have voted the same and pursued certain individuals but, when push came to shove, Nate wanted Justin on the block with Dana when Alison become the HOH last week. Alison couldn't do that because she had an alliance with Justin and Nate found out a little about that deal. With Justin's HOH win, look for Nate to go on the block and this alliance to be a thing of the past. (Chances of this alliance coming back...only possible if Nate saves himself and wins HOH next week, Alison won't burn this bridge, but it's chance of last til the end is a 0)

*The Non Blonde Chicks* Dana and Jun

With both girls on the block and the POV not used, the alliance was over and done with. They had moments of saying things about one another, but end the end...the alliance ended with them being friends and Dana has gone home. Alliance is over.

*Turtle Room* Scott(GONE)/Dave(GONE)/Jack/Erika

With only Jack and Erika remaining in the house, this alliance doesn't have the numbers but, they aren't seen as a huge threat in the house either. The problem is that the group that they mingle with did not win the HOH. One of these two are going up. It is possible that they will survive the vote if Nate doesn't end up getting himself off the block.

*Dad and Son* Jack/Nate

Jack and Nate's alliance is a little stronger this week after the two of them worked to get Alison to put Justin up with no success. Justin is after Nate and has the Head of House. (See what I think about what will happen here at the end of the article)

*Huey,Dewey and Louie* Jee/Robert/Justin

Well, look at who is still here? The boys are good at pulling in when needed and they handled the week like a pro. They got rid of the emotional baggage that attached to them (Dana) and in the end, they made it one more week...and not only one week. They have the Head of Household, well Justin does. They are looking good for at least one more week. Nice avoiding of the bullet this week.

*Dana, Dana Go Away* Jee/Justin/Robert/Jack/Nate/Alison/Erika/Dave?/Michelle (gone)

Well, this group finally got what they wanted. The plan was put on hold, but when Alison won HOH and she put up Dana, it was game/set/match and she is gone. Alliance is now over, Dana was the only tie to the group.

*Never In A Million Years* Jee/Jun

Jee and Jun have had quite the week. They aren't seen ever talking about the game. They run in spill the information that they have amassed and take off in two directions as fast as the words from their mouths. (They literally speak a million miles an hour giving just the important information and move on) This alliance is one of the strongest in the house. Nate/Erika/Alison/Jack have picked up on it, but Hewey,Dewey and Louie are clueless. Alliance continues and it will last another week.

*Like Turtles, Newbie?* Jack/Erika and ??

What started out with Jack/Dave has ended up Jack/Erika. They know they need a number three and although they have Nate..they need one of the 'others'. The problem that they have is they don't know which member they want to add. It started out Jee and has wavered and Robert's name has been mentioned. What they don't realize is that the three others are so tight it will take a strong chisel to remove one of them and get them into this alliance. The three guys do not talk smack about the other, there is no information that they could use. They might as well, end trying with them. The other option is Jun, but Jun is also in a secret alliance with Jee and she needs them to stick around. They have about run out of options at this point.

*The Nerve of Her to DO that Alliance* Nate/Alison/Jack/Erika and Dave (GONE)

This alliance was formed originally over how Dana betrayed the original eight alliance. Dana put up Alison/Jack and then when Nate used the POV to save Alison, Dave was put up and in the end went home. Alison made this alliance see what they wanted. Alliance is kaput due to Alison's hook up with the other side, but they saw success in getting rid of Dana.

*Blabbermouth* Dana/Robert/Jee/Justin/Jun

This group has now busted up since Dana was evicted. Jun has become part of the group, but that is a sub alliance.

*Three Ducks add a Daisy* Robert/Justin/Jee/Jun

Last week, Jun drew the line in the sand (against the original 8) and went with the exes group with her friend Dana. She has shown them loyalty all along, just wasn't as vocal as Dana. Her alliance with this group will help her this week, the boys have HOH.

New:

*Justin Must Go* Erika/Jack/Nate

In separating themselves from the current Head of House, this group as never said they were in an alliance, but they are definitely in the game with the same goals. They worked to get their buddy Alison to put him up, to no avail. They see Justin as the ringleader and think he must leave. Problem: Justin has won the HOH. This group will more than likely be busted up after this eviction, two of them will more than likely end up on the block.

Returning:

*Sports, sports*Justin/Alison

What appeared to have ended....picked up some steam last week. Alison made it very clear after her nominations that there was not only a bond, but an alliance with Justin. He has HOH now this week and has told her she is not going on the block with Nate (after she didn't put him up last week). Time will tell is he is as loyal to her as she is to him.

*Ditch Nate Club* Robert/Jee/Justin/Alison

Alison has made some steam with this group. She kept them together by her personal problems with Dana and didn't put any of the guys up against her. She knows that they have the stronger group and has intermingled with them during the last week. This alliance will go on unless Justin does something funky.

Recap

Well, what a day, what a week. Justin has the Head Of House and last week during a discussion between Dana/Erika, Dana told Erika that she was going on the block with Nate if they won the HOH. Will it happen?
I doubt it.

The boys (Hewey, Dewey, Louie) know that there is a strong tie with Nate/Jack. Right now there are only five members that can vote: Jun/Erika/Jack/Nate/Alison/Robert/Jee after two are put up. They only need three (their bond has two {{Robert/Jee}} and then they have Alison/Jun that will follow in suit with who ever they want gone). They also are worried about how Jack is playing the game and don't think that Erika has much to offer the other side. What they want is Nate gone bottom line and they have the votes.

The wildcard in all this could be putting up Alison with Nate. Nate has saved Alison when he used the POV and although they don't know what Alison says to the DR or said to Julie last night, they may put her up to avoid her using it as a payback. (My guess is she wouldn't even try to win it...so there would be no obligation)

My guess is the two that will be nominated is Jack/Nate. If by chance Nate is pulled by him winning POV, then Erika goes up and Jack goes home....

Stay tuned, this alliance mess will only get crazier as the numbers dwindle and they start realizing that they need some of their own group on that jury to win in the end. The real question is who will figure that out first and slip a couple over there.

Wow, is that the same author of the previous thread we had here... pretty cool!!!

Well, alliances are pointless when they're not kept secret. At this point, there is nothing left to speculate but to count the days for Nate to go, then Jack, then Erika, then Ali, then Robert, then Jun, then Justin and Jee.
