Season 29: Giftmas

## Season 29

The ***29th*** season of **Big Brother on Snapchat** premiered on *December 14, 2020*, where twelve Rookies and one Veteran entered the Big Brother House. The season lasted approximately one week. At the finale, taking place on *December 20, 2020*, Iso won in a **4-1** vote against Tony, making him the Winner of **Season 29: Giftmas**.

The ***Giftmas*** *twist* began on Night 1. At the beginning of the game, each Houseguest was given a *Gift* to open. The contents within each *Gift* were randomized, meaning Houseguests had a 50/50 chance of receiving an *advantage* or a *disadvantage.* Similar to the idea of *Pandora's Box* in Big Brother USA, there was one large gift that any Houseguest could open. This gift was opened prior to Night 1, causing Rocco to enter the game and receive three nights of safety. The rest of the season followed the traditional Big Brother on Snapchat format. *Hidden Immunity Idols* were common and considered an element of the traditional Big Brother on Snapchat format during the Origins and Renaissance Eras.

AJ, Kimmy, and Liz later returned to compete on Season 33: Ticket Holders.

Tony later returned to compete on Season 38: Second Chance 2.

Iso and Rocco later returned to compete on Season 40: Legends.

Taylor later returned to compete on Season 46: The Renaissance.

## Houseguest Analyses

### Winner: Iso

"You played a strong social game all season. You were loved by everyone even when you voted them out or voted the opposite way as them. You won the final HOH and took out the person who seemed to be the eventual winner. I'd love to bring you back for a future season because you are well loved by everyone!"

### Runner-up: Tony

"You played a under-appreciated game. You helped dictate votes and how people targeted each other. Your only wrong move was not being the face of it all. You needed to own more moves and target people who seemed to be taking credit for it. I'd love to bring you back to hear some more "THEY GONE"."

### 3rd: Rocco

"You played a "Paul" like game from irl Big Brother (and not just because you were the only vet) you helped run some votes, never received a vote when nominated, and won comps when needed to. With saying that however, you did lose the only comp you couldn't. I know you feel like crap right now and may not play again, but I know with time Classic Rocco will make his return."

### 4th: AJ

"Comp Beast A.J. You played well especially come late game. You sat in the back making relationships in the beginning then you kicked into full try hard mode half way through the game. One mistake was just not pulling out the Final 4 POV. You won my Favorite Player award and I'd love to bring you back."

### 5th: Kimmy

"You played a decent social game, but eventually you became expendable when you were nominated last night. Rocco was better at controlling the votes and it made sense to keep Rocco because he could challenge A.J. at comp. I would love to bring you back if you tried harder to dictate a lot more of what happens in the game."

### 6th: Liz

"The First HOH Curse lives on! You played a comp dependent game, but once others saw they eventually couldn't beat you they started to want you out. Your biggest mistake was probably not backdooring AJ the night previous. If he got eliminated you might have been able to pull out the POV win last night. I would love to bring you back in a future season."

### 7th: Blace

"You did great work behind the shadows, but that eventually caught up to you when people started to see you play a little more aggressive trying to push for AJ and Liz to go home. I agree AJ's gift was decently powerful given the time that he opened it, but anyone's gift would be powerful this late in the game. No one ever targeted the people with gifts left to open until it was too late. I wouldn't mind bringing you back for a future season."

### 8th: Ashlie

"I'll keep this about your game only for obvious reasons. You played an "alright" social game, but you were just too expandable by the majority of people playing."

### 9th: Amaryllis

"There isn't much to say about you. You quit without any warning or good reason. If you had to quit that's one thing, but to quit right after you got nominated is just disrespectful. I expected better from you as someone who's been around the community. Where ever you are I do wish you the best of luck in life and in other games because I know you're still a good person from the few conversations we had."

### 10th: Taylor

"Biggest Mistake- Going after Garret the night previous. Garret and yourself were the big dogs (along with Liz and Rocco) and you couldn't realize that you were the next biggest target if Garret was gone plus you were just HOH so you couldn't play in the next one. Even though you saw Garret as a big threat it wasn't time to eliminate him just yet. You were next on the chopping block and you got the boot next. I wouldn't mind bringing you back for another season with a little bit more of a smarter game mind."

### 11th: Garret

"You were caught making too many alliances. Plain and simple. You told people in one particular alliance they were your "Real Alliance" However Taylor who was in that alliance and another one of your other alliances saw that as fake and wanted to target you. You played really hard to fast and you just got caught by another player who can be easily worried/scattered which caused your elimination. I would love to bring you back with you playing a much more laid back game."

### 12th: Kenzi

"Very nice young women who just got unlucky. I saw you going extremely far in the game, but you weren't social enough with the one player who won HOH (may it be no fault of your own) I'd love to bring you back to see how you would fair when lightning doesn't strike you twice."

### 13th: Nikita

"You were one of if not the least active player in the game. You were only present for the first half of the first night and were afk the second half which caused your elimination. You were too trusting on alliances that weren't real which was the icing on your eliminated cake. I wouldn't mind bringing you back for another season, but you definitely need to be way more active compared to what you were during the preseason and the first and only night you played."
