Jericho

**Jericho** is a houseguest from *Big Brother 8*, *Big Brother 9*, and *Big Brother 15*.

Jericho started season 8 with some friends via a NicKat alliance. He was an early target too due to his closeness to Jamal. He was able to stay one step of everyone though. During Touchy Subjects, he was voted most likely to win the game and despite this, he was able to convince everyone to keep him in the game when nominated against Jamal. He won Part I HOH but when Emma took Parts II and III, she voted him out making him the final juror.

Jericho returned on season 9 with 3 other BB8 alum so he stuck by them for most of the game. Hoping to stay quiet, he accidentally won HOH in week 6. He was hoping to spook the BB5 alum by nominating them but ultimately target Edge for spreading rumors around the house. He and Adam had been working together closely but Ollie sniffed it out and nominating them intending to take down Jericho but the BB8 players got Adam blindsided instead. Jericho found himself nominated by Banner up against Winter. He was expecting to be evicted so he blew up in the house chat calling out BB5 and the overdramatic nature of his houseguests. He ended up staying and winning the next HOH and got his wish by taking down Banner. Jericho then would go on to win a couple of vetos to keep himself safe. At the final 4 he won HOH to ensure his safety and tried to target Ryan but ultimately evicted Michael when Ryan won the POV. In the final 3, the jury loved him and he had a great shot to win but he choked in Part 3 of the final HOH competition (again) and when Ryan won, he got evicted in 3rd.

Jericho returned for *BB15* where he started off strong by winning the first HOH competition. He used the win to set himself up for a deep run. He, JP, Hey, and Spencer, set themselves up to be the middle group fight between the Pregame Alliance and the BBD Alliance. Over time, Jericho's activity slowed down as his allies picked up theirs. His middle play was getting sloppy and he was getting caught in a lot of lies. The sides picked up on what he had been trying to do and targeted him for eviction at the early jury phase.

**9. Rate your odds 1-10 of winning the game.** Ehhhhh. 5. I'm skeptical. I'm either going far or flopping.
**1. What is your age, gender, location, occupation, and original season(s)/placement(s)?** Hi. My name is Jericho! I'm a 24 year old Canadian male who works for the government. I placed 3rd in JRZ8 and right after next season in JRZ9, Second Chances.
In JRZ8, it was my first time ever playing Big Brother... and I found out I actually really liked it. With multiple twists and turns and enough complication of a game on it's own, I was having fun nearly every single day. I was able to get by pretty easily pre-jury with only sitting on the block once. Once jury hit though, It became a different and more stressful game. I had Emma put up the most stressful F9 HOH, then at F8 I reeeeeeeaaaaaally should have left, but had enough of a social game for me not to leave even though touchy subjects revealed that I was most likely to win the game. Get out the people trying to take me out at F7 and F6, managed to convince Kat to blinside Jeeven at F5, win F4 HOH, proceed to lose F4 veto due to some..... interesting time schedule issues, then managed to barely lose out on the final HOH after I lied about my First Final HOH competition to win it. While I was still bitter about the F4 Veto competition, I was still very happy with how I played here. I won like... 2-3 HOHs, 1 veto, and was looking poised to win that season.
Then I got invited back to JRZ 9, and I was super down. I was super excited to play with a lot of new people and see if I could do what I did last season, but not shit the bed at the end. I even decided to boldly claim, "I won't make the same mistakes as last time." And bam. I went straight to work, laying low and going hard through the social game. I even straight up accidentally won an HOH at F12 trying to throw it, and then used it to unanimously send home the one person I didn't talk to. I then was put in some super rough spots. While my social game was good, others had stronger relationships with people rather than me, so I was seen as someone who could go up. At either F11 or F10(I forget which one), I was put up against Adam, and I didn't realize how much danger I was in. I didn't realize how big BB8 was of a target, so I didn't do much campaigning until Amelia and Ryan told me how much danger I was in, while there was a lot of work done by Amelia and Ryan as well, I went HARD the last hour and managed to help flip some votes to save me when I needed it. After that there were multiple weeks in which I was put up, and I either had just enough social connections or was able to clutch out a veto or two when I needed it. The only real mistake I made was not being able to convince Michael to vote out Ryan at F5 instead of Amelia. Ryan was socially connected enough to him to convince him to keep him, even though he realy looking most poised to win the season. One more time of me making F3 HOH Final Comp, and this time I choke even harder. I answer almost every question wrong, and I just absolutely shit the bed. I then was placed 3rd once again.
I've done it all but win but in this series. I saved my ass in the last hour, won multiple HOHs.. even by accident, won a few vetoes to save my own life, and looked poised to win at one point.
**2. What is your strategy coming into BB15?** My strategies the first 2 seasons were simple, but very effective. Talk to people so much that they think they're at least somewhat connected to you, and throw early hohs. Mid-Game win a few competitions to make sure you aren't seen as a goat, and late game do literally everything possible to stay in the game.
This season, I don't think that's going to fly. Multiple people will see right through that bullshit. I'm going to have to win some early competitions to save myself and hopefully use those to build some solid alliances. It sucks because I would much rather not tryhard early HOHs, but I think I ight have to. Getting stuck using the same strategy every time isn't a great thing to have as a player.
**3. What was your biggest strength in your first season(s)? Biggest weakness?** My biggest strength has been being socially aware. Feeling out who's connected with who, how much trouble I'm in, and who's looking the best to win the game at any current moment. My social game could use a tint of work as well, but for the most part I think it's pretty good.
My biggest weakness is my clutch factor. Both of my past seasons I win if I don't absolutely shit the bed in the end, but that's exactly what happened. I need to study up more, and not put as much stress on myself as I have in past seasons.
**4. What do you plan to do differently compared to your first season(s)?** I explained it mostly in question 2, but I really need to switch up my strategy. I need to win an early comp or two and use that leverage to build solid alliances. I need to make sure that my social game is as good as it's ever been.
It'll be tough as fuck, but I need to really put up a fight from early on. I don't think I can really roll on easy, I need to go hard from day 1 to the very bitter end.
**5. Who are you most excited to get to play with? Who are you most nervous to play with?** I'm nervous to play with literally everybody. I haven't shown my face in a while. After leaving in a not so great fashion, I decided to take time off to focus and work on myself. I felt myself getting more toxic overall, and it wasn't a great look on me. I haven't really been back since. I feel like a lot of these castmates will remember me blowing up, and it'll be hard to get in a good first day connection with them, and I feel like I'll be in danger early on. While I was super excited to say yes to playing this, I'm genuinely pretty scared to show my face in this community overall.
**6. As JRZ approaches it's 15th and final season, and a tenure of over 3 years "running" on Discord, what does it mean to you to be a part of the legacy?** Honestly, I'm really happy to be part of it. I haven't always been proud of every single one of my actions in this community, and lord knows I haven't been the greatest person in the world, and I have flopped a lot. However I can always look back at my time in JRZ and be super happy about it. I've played well in back to back season, and like I said above, done pretty much everything but win it all. I'll always be JRZ Janelle, and nobody can take that away from me.
