And Week 2 begins. Ron went (what a surprise!!!
NOT.)
And Draco sails through so he never found out how many votes he got.
Anyway, I met up with Crabbe and we talked and I managed to sway him into an alliance with me and Padma, and then Padma came on! So we had a 3-way chat together and agreed to be quiet and cautious, and we talked about where loyalties lie in the Cedricpeoples alliance (as I like to call it.)
Then, as I was about to come offline, Pansy came on! Now we need to see what her and Susan are thinking about Cedric and possibly voting along our lines (which is Crabbe's suggestion for making them work with us.)
I asked them to see what she said anyway then I came offline.
While I was talking to Crabbe I started to take the mickey out of GarGoyle, as I like to call him now.
First of all, I thought of:
COMING TO A MOVIE THEATRE NEAR YOU...
THE LATEST BLOCKBUSTER HORROR FILM TO GRIP AMERICA...
[glow=green,9,200]GARGOYLE[/glow]
Now that would be scary.
Then I considered the possibility of...
[glow=pink,9,200]GarGoyle: The Musical!!![/glow]
Crabbe said he'd officially die of boredom, which is a shame, because he'd miss out on the songs.
Whatever GarGoyle sings would end up coming out as a series of quiet grunts.
Then my last suggestion was for GarGoyle to go on a National Comedy Tour, but people would fall asleep in their seats.
Time to update the boot list.

Hey, stick a fork in me! I'm nominated. If only Padma had won the HoH Comp I would be totally safe. I can easily understand Hannah's reason so I won't be all-out against if, by some freakish fluke, I survive this week. I lost out in the Double Eviction Round in BB Warzone and I've never once survived an eviction vote.
Crabbe urgently wants to see me, and I can see why. I also need to see Padma. Either of them just to see if Pansy gave good info 2 days ago.
Susan gave some interesting stuff too. She suddenly brought up Hermione and Cedric in our 2nd convo together last night. She told me that Hermione has been making several Final-2 deals with people, whereas Ced has been making deals to many people to try and stay safe.
She also said that "they seem to be going separately but are probably working together behind the scenes."
Point 1 - She was aligned with them and has thrown them under the bus. Wahey!
Point 2 - She made sure that I "didn't know" she was with the two of them. People talk Susan!
Point 3 - She chose not to mention GarGoyle, Pansy or Luna which suggests to me that she is more loyal to them.
Hmm... well I'll be wasting my time figuring stuff out because if I don't win PoGS I'm very likely to be evicted.

Week 2

Ugh. That stupid Snitch competition. I came in 3rd. Ernie won so he'll only save himself, which means I'm bound to go now. It'll be someone new against me, Draco and Ginny and I don't see both Draco and Ginny going, and the replacement nominee will probably be someone popular.
It was the only opportunity to save myself in this game, so I'm out for sure. I never survive eviction votes. However, I would NEVER have had all 12 answers right if it wasn't for Pansy.
I quickly put on AIM after about 90 minutes to see if Crabbe was online to possibly help. A few minutes later Pansy came on, and after about 5 minutes I started an IM. When I said I wouldn't win the Snitch, she actually offered me a site where she thought the right constellations probably were. I agreed and found all 12 on them! I promised that I'd tell no-one and would repay the favour at some point, provided I stay, which is now doubtful. She said I didn't have to repay her but I want to. So if she needs help some day I'll come to her rescue.
However, despite getting all of them right I knew Pansy had a faster puzzle time, and on top of that I was running behind schedule in life and really needed to go. So I didn't get another opportunity to do the puzzle. That's what screwed my game. I should have thought of the Zodiac constellations much earlier than Pansy turned up, then I could have kept working on puzzle times.
Anyway, Pansy told me she'd rather see me win the Snitch so she "wouldn't have to fret about voteing this round." At least, I'm nearly certain she said that. I think it means she'd prefer to keep me over the other 3 noms, but why would she fret? My name must be appearing. However, it's not like Pansy to make a typo, and there is no "e" in voting, and "voteing" is similar to "vetoing." And fretting with the Snitch decision is more likely because if she saved me it'd look like we were together. But that doesn't look like it now luckily.
I can only hope that the replacement nominee is not popular and Draco strikes himself out.

Hannah hasn't even replaced Ernie yet, so it looks like we'll only get 24hrs to vote. That's not good cause I don't have much time to campaign.
I've been keeping up PM's with Crabbe and he said that Padma told Hermione that he's after her and Cedric, which was really dumb. I hope Padma's not double-crossing us. I haven't seen any sign of her for several days, last time was before the HoH.
Ernie told me that Ginny could get more votes than me because she's not as active, but people tell you what you want to hear, so I won't assume anything.

So, I think this could be my last confessional (except my vote which is coming very soon.) Harry is the replacement nominee, for the No-Talking reason which Ernie has criticised and Susan has defended because Ernie criticised it. How long does this go on for? I chatted with Ernie for like 7 minutes. And I saw Luna! Hurrah! We had yet another good chat, and she said she hadn't voted for me and she'd voted Ginny. However, Hermione, despite SAYING she hadn't voted me, said she didn't vote Ginny because she's "more active." Well I'd rather vote Ginny to get more votes for one particular person and increase the chances of me staying. Luna said most people had said they'd vote Ginny, but that was most. And it's easy to say something, not so easy to mean it. We'll see. So, I'll make some predictions as to who votes who, based on what I've heard and guessed. Harry - me, Draco or Ginny Hermione - Draco or Harry Ginny - me, Draco or Harry Luna - Ginny Roger (me!) - Ginny or Harry Padma - Ginny, Harry or Draco Draco - Ginny, me or Harry Crabbe - Ginny, Harry or Draco Goyle - Ginny, me, Harry or Draco Pansy - Ginny, Harry or Draco Cedric - me, Harry, Ginny or Draco Ernie - Harry, Ginny or Draco Susan - me, Ginny, Harry or Draco Draco's name appears 10 times. Ginny's appears 11 times. Harry's appears 11 times. Mine appears 6 times, but that can easily be delusional. Ginny and Harry must be aligned with some people. Time will tell, time will tell...
