The *Have Nots* were required to complete tasks and would receive game related punishment if they failed to do so. The rest of the season followed the traditional Big Brother on Snapchat format. *\*\*See Have Nots for the list of Have Nots.\*\**

Chad, Zaire, and Chelsea later returned to compete on Season 40: Legends.

## Houseguest Analyses

### Winner: Chad

"You played a fantastic game! You rocked with the majority alliance and used the shield strategy to make it far in the game. You dodged a lot of bullets and took out your biggest competition at the end of the season. Well played game well earned win!"

### Runner-up: Alek

"You had a good social game and didn't show your card early on like last time. This time you weren't super involved in the big decisions and people saw you more of just coasting. Obviously comps didn't go your way either. Still you should be proud of the improvement you made."

### 3rd: Lexi

"You had a horrid social game at the start of the game, but after surviving many eliminations as the universal pawn. You eventually won a comp and took out the biggest competition to win the game. Your mistake was taking out Najma over Chad. Yes Naima and Alek had a final 2 but Chad wasn't taking you either. Chad is better at HOH's and comps in general. You had a better chance against Najma."

### 4th: Najma

"I wanna say you played better then your first go around but I'm not sure that I can. Yes you won some POVs, Yes you lasted as long as you did the first season you played in a even larger season, but the social game just wasn't there for me this time around. You relied heavily on Ayub to carry both of you in that part of the game. I do think with how Ayub set you up and how quickly the tides were changing every night once jury started helped you get as far as you did along with your comp ability. I can't say you played a great game but I will say you played a good game especially when you had to rely on yourself once Ayub was gone."

### 5th: Jason

"You had such an Up and Down game. At times I was like "Jason you're so smart good play" and others I was like "WHAT ARE YOU DOING JASON YOU FUCKING IDIOT" Sadly I do believe most of the time I was saying the 2nd phrase more often then the 1st. You missteps were playing to hard pregame that people saw as a threat, trying to add more people to an already huge alliance, and being too loyal to people who weren't gonna be loyal to you. I think you got really lucky with Sania winning a lot of comps and Lexi taking out Chelsea who was pushing for you to go (which btw you voted to keep) then you made another mistake of nominating Ayub and Najma over Chad and Zaire. I will say you came around and won the F6 HOH and finally realized your mistake and took out Zaire. You played a decent game that had some help by uncontrollable events, but overall it was very enjoyable to watch especially the DRs (I like your DRs idc what others think). With that being said you have won my favorite player."

### 6th: Zaire

"If you targeted Chad in the previous round I think you could have comp beasted your way to the end. You were aligned with him yes but not only was he your biggest competition comp wise, but also the favorite to win the game. You did was you usually do which is play slow in the beginning and then kick it into gear come jury. You just couldn't see who was your biggest competition to run the table in time to save yourself."

### 7th: Kevin

"You were arguably the least connected person to start this game. You did quickly make those bonds in the first 48 hours which helped you incredibly (Take notes Peyton) You could have won this game because everyone loved you, but Zaire made the mistake of targeting you who hasn't won a comp yet over Chad who's been the front runner since Chelsea left. You were just caught playing the middle too late into the game. I do think you didn't deserve to go, but it did make sense for you to go if not Chad."

### 8th: Ayub

"You played as well as you did your first go around. You were the first (and maybe even the only) person to realize Chelsea's and Chad's grip in the game. You helped set up the Chelsea vote which I give you major props for. However Jason who still thought people like Chad and Zaire would 100% have his back and are the favorites to win the game thought it was a good idea to nominate you and Najma who were not gonna target him. They were just scared of your social game which caused your elimination. Overall you played just as well as you did the first time, but just got out because of pretty dumb move."

### 9th: Chelsea

"Probably the biggest improvement out of everyone playing (besides Chad) you really had a grip in this game that only a miracle could change. Well the Miracle came when Lexi won HOH and nominated you and your #1 who was better at comps then you. It was a close vote and some people were still stupid enough cough cough Jason to still vote to keep you at that point. You just simply overplayed at points and targeted people you really didn't need to. I thought it was obvious that Lexi should go over Jayla, but just because Jayla was attached to Peyton who's NO LONGER IN THE GAME you took her out over someone who could actually win a comp if needed!!! I think you just needed to not be so narrowed minded when it comes to targeting individuals in this game. Other than that you played an absolutely perfect game that only got screwed up by something that was unlikely to happen but 100% would have not happened if Jayla stayed."

### 10th: Sania

"There are 2 big mistakes to your game. One being Winning two HOHs early on without gaining much from them protection wise. The other being getting out players who aren't big threats. You let others talk you into nominating other players who in reality would nominate you if given the opportunity. You simply just got out played by smarter players this season."

### 11th: Nemo

"You were on track to becoming my favorite player this season with all of your great DRs and you won your first ever competition. Sadly you just got booted by the bigger alliance who saw you as a threat due to your social game. Even though you were the most loyal to them they still made the mistake that of voting you out over Lexi. You probably should have made a bigger move realizing how on the outs you were when you won HOH instead of taking out the person no one really liked."

### 12th: Jayla

"Even though you only survived one round longer than your previous season I'll say that I'm actually impressed by you. Yes you still made your mistakes of dropping names, BUT you didn't turn down any alliances this time!!! Honestly I believe your elimination was a mistake made by Chelsea that eventually took her out later on. I do think you being known as Peyton's #2 is just something you couldn't shake which caused your wrongful elimination. Even though you went out in the double again please be proud of yourself because you improved in every way this Season and your elimination wasn't all your own doing."

### 13th: Tony

"You had (or at least what I thought was) a masterful social game back in S29. I thought that would continue over in this season as well. That was NOT the case at all. You did talk to people but I couldn't even say it was surface level it was so bad. One or two word answers and a good morning text doesn't do it in this game. You weren't included in the big alliance for mostly that reason. You kinda just creeped people out and they did want you gone. I don't know where Tony from S29 went or was this the same Tony that I just overanalyzed before. Either way you are my BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT."

### 14th: Alicia

"You played great in your first season with Jason. People knew that your loyalty with Jason would be a problem since the majority alliance that Jason was on the outside of but kept trying to include people wanted him out. They knew eliminating you would decrease his fire power for a possible move made against him down the line. I think overall this should be a learning experience for you too because you didn't really have a lot of meaningful conversations with some of the cast."

### 15th: Peyton

"I would give you biggest disappointment but that means I'd have to have had high expectations for you going into the season. I knew going in you were gonna be an early boot because of how well you played in S31. For you to lower your target you had to work from the start of the chat being made until the start of the game. For the first 2 days you were one of the least active players and didn't really add back the majority of the cast. The first 48 hours are really important and with someone with that big of a target on your back you signed your death sentence."

### 16th: Ava

"This was your first game you played that didn't include your bestie Sani or anyone you're already super close with. You are used to getting at least 5th based on your friends in the game, and comp ability alone. Like you said this was really a humbling experience for seeing that this game does require a lot more work then you're used of putting into it. Your social bonds were good but just barely surface level and there was absolutely no game talk with the majority of the cast which did you in."
