Heavenly Power of Veto

## *Big Brother* Twists

### Description

If used, the holder also decides if a replacement nominee should be named or not.

## Season(s)

### Seasons

DeSales Big Brother 1

The **Heavenly Power of Veto** is a special variant of the Power of Veto. It appeared on DeSales Big Brother 1 during Backwards Week, due to there being three nominees instead of the usual two.

It was won by Fiona Spear.

## Details

The winner of the Heavenly Power of Veto has three choices of how to use it. They can either:

1. ...save a nominee, requiring a replacement nominee. (In the case of Backwards Week, this would require a second nomination vote.)
2. ...save a nominee, and use the heavenly power to eliminate the need for a replacement nominee-- only the two remaining nominees are on the block.
3. ...leave all three nominations in place.

Due to the nature of this power, this type of POV can only exist if there are more than two nominees.

## History

The Heavenly Power of Veto has appeared only once so far, in DeSales Big Brother 1. It was won by Fiona Spear in the Garden Secrets Veto competition.

Fiona was one of the three nominees, alongside Izzy Criscuolo and Grace Bowmaster. Fiona chose to use the Heavenly POV on herself, and did not call for a replacement nominee. She did this in the hopes that Izzy would be evicted; however, Matt Camardo would later win the Backwards Week HOH and evict Grace instead.

## Trivia

* The Heavenly Power of Veto is the first, and so far only, special alteration to the Power of Veto.
Training Regimen

## *Big Brother* Recurring Competition

### Description

Endure a variety of physically demanding tasks. In each phase, the first person to fall is eliminated.

## Appearance(s)

### Seasons

CSW Big Brother
DeSales Big Brother 2

### Other Names/Variations

Walk the Plank (Reprise)
New Year's Resolutions

**Training Regimen** is a recurring endurance competition, appearing exclusively as Part 1 of the final HOH competition.

## Rules

The competition takes place in two phases. Each phase involves a different activity or series of activities. The HouseGuests must keep up with the physical exercises that they are tasked with; when someone fails to complete the task, they are eliminated and the phase ends. The last person remaining in the challenge wins the competition.

## History

In CSW Big Brother, Jaydon Reap, Evan Graham (represented by his Body Double) and Lucia Pastor competed in Part 1 of the HOH competition. The two phases of the competition involved a varying combination of wall sits and planking. Lucia was the first to fall in phase one. In phase two, after several straight minutes of holding plank, Jaydon was the first to fall, making Evan the winner of the challenge.

The competition returned for DeSales Big Brother 2 as "New Year's Resolutions." The first phase was doing as many sit-ups as possible without tiring out. Moriah Wilt was the first of the three to stop, and was eliminated. Megan Dean and Kylie Menow moved on to phase two, which involved holding a reverse table pose for as long as possible. Megan was the first to fall, making Kylie the winner.

Judgement Boy

"Do you know who I am?"

Judgement Boy (otherwise known as just J.B.) is the main member of his eponymous species. He works as an intern at his father JBG's law firm most of the time, but when he's off-work, he's a whole other person. He's quite sensitive, but acts cold and aloof in order to act like an adult.

## Personality

J.B. is quite snarky and often acts cold towards people who don't know him. He enjoys presenting morality questions to them and watching their minds melt as they try and wrap their heads around it. Outside the law firm and to those that aren't strangers, he's quite nice. He's prone to emotional outbursts.

## Relationship

J.B. and his father have a healthy relationship, even though he fakes most of his personality in public. He's also good friends with Quinn (despite what JBG thinks of her). He used to live in Gregory House, but was severely annoyed by Gregory's antics so he faked his own death by leaping out a train window.

## Trivia

* J.B. loves to sing to himself, to the annoyance of most around him. His two favorite things to sing are a song he wrote himself (seen in Episode 2 of *Gregory Horror Show*, the documentary about Gregory House) and the Slim Shady "chicka-chicka-chick-chick-wa".
* When they met, Judgement Boy bought Quinn a coffee to apologize for his father's resentment towards her.
Morph 'O' Matic

## *Big Brother* Recurring Competition

### Description

Look at morphed pictures and figure out which HouseGuests' faces are morphed together.

## Appearance(s)

### Other Names/Variations

BB-mojis

**Morph 'O' Matic** is a Power of Veto competition.

## Rules

One at a time, the HouseGuests are shown a series of images featuring morphed faces. The HouseGuests must figure out which HouseGuests' faces are morphed into the image, and record their guesses for each facial feature (eyes, nose, mouth). The HouseGuests can also list a second guess for each of the three facial features per picture. Each picture appears for a limited time before disappearing, but at the end all of the faces will briefly reappear so the players can double-check their answers.

For each facial feature that is correctly identified (eyes, nose, and mouth), the player earns three points (or one point for their second guess). After all the points are totaled from all of the pictures, whoever has the highest score wins the Power of Veto.

## History

So far, this competition has appeared only once: during 2-in-1 Week on DeSales Big Brother 3. This was the Power of Veto competition in Cyberspace. Grace Curry won the competition.
Mackenzie Schmidt

## Season History

**Mackenzie Schmidt** *(she/her)* was a HouseGuest on DeSales Big Brother 3.

Upon entering the house, Mackenzie quickly made her mark as a competitive and strategic threat. She played a fervent social game, and with the help of Dynamic Duo partner Cas Danubio, made separate alliances with three of the other duos. Mackenzie utilized these alliances in her first HOH to ensure the eviction of Relena Kiser, whom she believed to be a strong social threat. This move split the house into two sides that would battle continuously throughout the season-- with Mackenzie the primary target of virtually everyone on the opposing side. For three more weeks, she kept an impressive streak of HOH and POV wins to guarantee her safety. However, her protection ran out when she lost the Week 5 HOH to Rosie Dunphy. Mackenzie was not picked for the Veto competition, allowing Rosie to successfully backdoor her-- with Kassidy Kimata and Brielle Lewandowski turning on their alliance with Mackenzie and voting her out. Mackenzie was evicted by Rosie's tie breaking vote, placing 9th and becoming the first member of the jury. She voted for Rosie to win.

## Trivia

* Mackenzie holds the record for...
	+ the highest competition win percentage of any HouseGuest.
	+ the longest period of continuous safety from competition wins, with 4 straight weeks.
Brielle Lewandowski

## Season History

**Brielle Lewandowski** *(she/her)* was a HouseGuest on DeSales Big Brother 3.

On Season 3, Brielle was a reserved yet intelligent player with a good deal of social capital. She, along with Dynamic Duo partner Kassidy Kimata, formed alliances with both the Purple Team and the Orange Team, positioning them comfortably in the middle between the two warring sides of the house. They were one of two teams to escape nomination in the Duos phase. However, Brielle was nominated as a pawn during 2-in-1 Week by her ally Alison Ansorg (due to the lack of replacement nominee options). Although Brielle was in a good spot, this almost resulted in a fluke eviction as she narrowly survived by a vote of 4-3. The next week, Kassidy got Brielle on board to turn on their Horsemen alliance by evicting Mackenzie Schmidt, due to her competition record. Although the blindside was successful, the pendulum quickly swung back at them when Mackenzie's partner Cas Danubio won HOH and put Brielle and Kassidy on the block together. Despite Kassidy asking the group to evict her over Brielle, Brielle was seen as the more strategic player, and therefore a bigger threat-- resulting in her eviction by a vote of 3-2. Brielle placed 8th; she voted for Alison to win.
Energy Overflow

**Energy Overflow** is a Head of Household and Safety competition.

## Rules

Each HouseGuest has an "energy tank" with their name on it. Everyone's energy tanks are placed in a line. On GO, the HouseGuests must grab an "energy orb" at the start, run to the group of energy tanks, and place the orb in the energy tank of the HouseGuest they want to eliminate. They must then return to the start to grab another energy orb. When someone's energy tank has reached ten orbs, the tank "overflows" and that person is eliminated. The last HouseGuest standing wins Head of Household.

## History

In CSW Big Brother, the competition was played in three rounds. For the first two rounds, the house was split in half as six HouseGuests played in each round (one HouseGuest had to volunteer to not participate-- Mary Fader volunteered and sat out). The last two standing from rounds one and two would advance to round three. The last one standing in round three would be the winner. Evan Graham's Body Double won this competition, making Evan the Head of Household.

In DeSales Big Brother 3, due to the Dynamic Duos twist, only seven HouseGuests participated in this competition: the chosen hero of each of the seven duos. The "energy tanks" in this iteration were empty egg cartons, which were to be filled with "power eggs." Thanks to their sidekicks, four heroes had an advantage-- Mary Grace, Brielle, Moses and Rosie each had a carton with twelve slots instead of ten. Ultimately, Rosie Dunphy was the last one standing, granting her and her partner Alison Ansorg safety for the week.
Competition

*This page discusses competitions in CSW and DeSales Big Brother. For a list of all recurring competitions, see the Competitions category page.*

**Competitions** have been a very important part of Big Brother's gameplay ever since the show began. The winner(s) of the competition will receive a power or special privileges for the week. The outcomes of these competitions can often alter the course of a season.

Each type of competition benefits the winning HouseGuest(s) in a different way. There are several different types of competitions, listed below.

## Types of Competitions

* **Head of Household Competition:** The winning HouseGuest becomes the Head of Household, meaning they are safe from eviction and must nominate two HouseGuests for eviction. All HouseGuests compete, except for the previous Head of Household.
* **Power of Veto Competition:** The winning HouseGuest wins the Power of Veto, which can be used to save one of the two nominees from the eviction block. If the Power of Veto is used, the Head of Household must name a replacement nominee (the Veto winner is not eligible to be nominated). Only six HouseGuests compete: the Head of Household, the two nominees, and three other players selected by a random draw.
* **Re-Entry Competition:** Evicted HouseGuests face off two at a time for a chance to re-enter the game; the winner advances to face the next evicted HouseGuest, while the loser is permanently evicted.
* **Safety Competition:** The winning HouseGuest earns safety from the next upcoming eviction. Only the chosen hero of each Dynamic Duo competes.
* **Advantage Competition:** The winning HouseGuests earn a special advantage that will benefit their duo partner in the next competition. Only the chosen sidekick of each Dynamic Duo competes; the number of possible winners can vary depending on the challenge.

## Styles of Competitions

* **Mental:** *Requires mental agility, critical thinking, etc. with no physical component. (e.g. Love Letter Laboratory)*
	+ **Memory:** *Tests short-term memory. (e.g. Watch Carefully)*
	+ **Trivia:** *Tests memory of specific events from earlier in the season. (e.g. Web Puzzle)*

* **Physical:** *Involves physical movement with little to no mental component. (e.g. Water You Doing?)*
	+ **Endurance:** *Hold a physically uncomfortable position, and outlast everyone else to win. (e.g. Walk the Plank)*
	+ **Physical/Mental:** *Includes both a mental component and movement of some kind. (e.g. Mural Sprint)*
	+ **Physical/Trivia:** *Involves both movement and remembering events from earlier in the season. (e.g. OTEV)*
* **Skill:** *May have a physical component, but tests skill more than strength or agility. (e.g. Tipsy Towers)*
* **Social:** *The outcome is determined by social factors. (e.g. Wheel of First Impressions)*

## List of All Competitions

*Main article: List of competitions by season*

## Trivia

* The total number of competitions throughout CSW Big Brother and DeSales Big Brother combined is 131.
Ashley Mayers

## Season History

**Ashley Mayers** *(she/her)* was a HouseGuest on DeSales Big Brother 1.

As one of the only non-Theatre majors on Season 1, Ashley entered the house at a bit of a disadvantage, with Grace Bowmaster being her only close bond. Ashley tried to mitigate this by being very present in the HOH Room, hoping to make more allies. Unfortunately, HOH Fiona Spear still nominated Ashley for eviction, alongside Katelyn Vecchiolli-- Grace's other closest ally. When Grace won the Power of Veto, Ashley tried to convince Grace to save her; however, Fiona told Grace that even if she used the Veto on one of her allies, the other would still definitely be evicted. This resulted in Grace not using the Veto, and Ashley was ultimately seen as a bigger threat than Katelyn. She was evicted on Day 8 by a vote of 9-3. She had a chance to return to the game thanks to the Underworld twist, but lost her face-off against Aaron Green. Ashley placed 18th (15th, excluding the self-evicted HouseGuests). She, along with Sarah Danner and Emily Barrett, chose to send Grace back into the game.
Bobby Rice

* All-Stars
* Season 2

## Season History

**Bobby Rice** *(he/him)* was a HouseGuest on DeSales Big Brother 2, where he placed ninth. He is best known for being infamously expelled from the jury on that season. Despite this, Bobby returned for DeSales Big Brother: All-Stars, where he once again placed ninth.

## Trivia

* Bobby is one of four All-Stars to earn the exact same placement as on their original season. The others are Lucia Pastor, Sammi Stec and Peyton McPeak.
Body Doubles

**Body Doubles** are a twist on CSW Big Brother. It allowed Evan Graham, the only HouseGuest not currently attending CSW, to fully participate in the game by having a Body Double compete in competitions on his behalf.

Evan's original Body Double was **Abby DeVore**. However, after Week 4, Abby had to step down from being Evan's Body Double due to a health concern. She was replaced by **Alayna Hernandez**.

## Details

Prior to the start of the season, Evan must choose someone (who is not already competing as a HouseGuest) to be his Body Double. This person, while not an official HouseGuest, will participate in the game along with Evan, representing him in competitions whenever he cannot be present. Any competition that Evan is able to compete in (he is present in-person, or the competition is played virtually), Evan must play himself. If Evan's Body Double wins a competition, Evan reaps all the benefits of winning that competition.

## Competition History

### Overall

**Note**: Wins and losses of competitions played by Evan's Body Double are shown in **blue**.

## Trivia

* If wins by Evan's Body Doubles are counted, Evan on CSW Big Brother has the second highest number of competition wins in a single season, behind Rosie Dunphy.

## *Big Brother* Recurring Competition

### Description

Once you have the proper signal to GO, run across your lane as fast as possible.

## Appearance(s)

### Seasons

DeSales Big Brother 1
DeSales Big Brother 2

### Other Names/Variations

Now You See Me, Now You Don't

**Ready, Set, Woah!** is a recurring Head of Household and Power of Veto competition.

## Rules

The HouseGuests are shown a screen that will say "READY," "SET," and then a series of words that either rhyme with or look like the word "GO." The HouseGuest must stay in their starting position until "GO" appears, at which point they must run across their lane and hide their camera as quickly as possible. In each round, the last person to hide their camera earns one strike. Getting two strikes will result in elimination. The last HouseGuest standing will win HOH or POV.

## History

On DeSales Big Brother 1, the rules were slightly different. In each round, the host will read aloud the names of various HouseGuests still in the game. Occasionally there will instead be the name of an evicted HouseGuest. When they hear this, the players must run. Izzy Criscuolo won this competition.

DeSales Big Brother 2 is when the competition appeared as it does on Big Brother US. This time, it was a Power of Veto competition. Gabby Kmetz just barely beat out Lexie Montero to win the Power of Veto.

## Trivia

* Both winners of this competition would later end up being evicted during a Double Eviction.
BB Bonus Wheel

## *Big Brother* Twists

### Description

The spin of a wheel gives two HouseGuests safety, who both must also save someone else.

## Season(s)

### Seasons

DeSales Big Brother All-Stars

The **BB Bonus Wheel** is a twist on DeSales Big Brother: All-Stars. It was the third twist of the "3 Twists in One Night" premiere event, after the CSW Big Brother twist and the Saboteur twist.

## Details

On Day 2, HouseGuests were encouraged to attend the HOH Room between the hours of 10:00pm and midnight. At two randomly determined times during this 2-hour window, the BB Bonus Wheel would appear. Any HouseGuest present at the time of the Wheel's appearance would have their name entered on the Wheel.

The Wheel would then spin, and whoever the Wheel landed on would receive the **BB Fast Forward**, meaning they were safe for the first week of the game. They also would be required to each choose one other HouseGuest to share the Fast Forward with, giving them safety as well. They would have approximately 24 hours to make their decision of whom to save.

The 4 HouseGuests that received the Fast Forward could not be nominated at either the nominations ceremony or Veto meeting. They would still be eligible to be picked for the Veto competition.

## Trivia

* This twist resulted in the highest number of HouseGuests to have immunity at one time (not counting the HOH), with 4.
Megan Castellane

## Season History

**Megan Castellane** *(she/her)* was a HouseGuest on DeSales Big Brother 1.

From the start of the game, Megan had scheduling conflicts that prevented her from attending meetings. She had enough connections with the other theatre majors in the game to avoid the block Week 1, despite not attending a single Zoom meeting. She voted with the house to evict Ashley Mayers. However, Megan ultimately decided to walk from the game on Day 10 due to her scheduling conflicts.

Megan was one of three HouseGuests to self-evict in a 24-hour period-- the others being Katelyn Vecchiolli and Sydney Abbott. These three self-evictions would lead to the introduction of a new twist, which brought three new HouseGuests into the game after the second eviction. The three new HouseGuests were Matt Camardo, Alex Austin and Nicole Balistrere.

## Trivia

* Megan is one of only two HouseGuests to leave the game without playing a single competition. The other one is Sydney Abbott.
Special Cadet

The **Special Cadet** is a twist in CSW Big Brother. It is the first twist activated by the BB Control Center, taking effect during weeks 2-4.

## Details

The Special Cadet twist is reliant on the HouseGuests' decisions inside the BB Control Center, requiring the Twist Activator button to be pushed by at least half of the HouseGuests to take effect. During Week 2 (the first week that the Twist Activator button appeared), the minimum 6 out of 12 HouseGuests pushed the button, activating the twist. Had the button been pushed less than 6 times, it would have appeared again the following two weeks until the twist was activated. (If the button was never pushed by at least half of the HouseGuests by the end of Week 4, the Special Cadet twist would not have occurred.)

Once the twist is activated, one HouseGuest will be chosen each week to be the "Special Cadet." The HouseGuests were told that an "audience vote" would determine who won this power-- as CSW Big Brother has no viewing audience, this is simulated by a complex algorithm for a random draw. Specific actions increase a HouseGuests' likelihood of being chosen in the random draw, such as winning HOH or POV, being nominated for eviction, or voting in the minority during an eviction vote. Right after the nominations ceremony, the draw for Special Cadet will occur.

The HouseGuest chosen to be the Special Cadet is informed of their identity in secret. They must choose a HouseGuest to go on the block as a special 3rd nominee. This 3rd nomination is revealed shortly before the Veto competition, with the identity of the Special Cadet not being revealed. If the 3rd nominee is saved with the Power of Veto, the Special Cadet once again secretly names the replacement.

The Special Cadet title cannot be given to the current Head of Household, nor any HouseGuest that has already been the Special Cadet.

## Trivia

* None of the Special Cadet's nominees were evicted, or even received any eviction votes.
* Of the three HouseGuests that were Special Cadet, Anaya Harrison is the only one who was not nominated at the time that they received the title.
What the Bleep?!

**What the Bleep?!** is a recurring Head of Household and Power of Veto competition. It has appeared in every season so far. Most of the time, it is the final 4 HOH competition.

## Rules

In each round, the players are shown a clip of a HouseGuest saying something they have previously said in the house (typically during an eviction speech or veto meeting speech). One word or phrase is bleeped out, however. The houseguests competing must say if the word or phrase given to them as a possibility of being the bleeped word is true or false. If they get it right, they get a point. If they get it wrong, they do not.
The houseguest that gets the most points at the end of the competition wins HOH or POV.

## History

In its first appearance on CSW Big Brother, the competition was called "Radio Blackout" in line with the outer space theme. Rather than showing a video, Matt would read the statements while impersonating each HouseGuest. Jaydon Reap won this competition.

The competition was rebranded to the new standard "What the Bleep?!" for DeSales Big Brother 1. This time, it appeared as a Veto competition. Matt Camardo was the winner.

On DeSales Big Brother 2, "What the Bleep?!" went back to being the final 4 HOH competition. This time, Moriah Wilt beat Megan Dean in the tiebreaker question to become the Head of Household.

For All-Stars, the competition appeared again at the final four. Sammi Stec was the winner.

The competition appeared once again during DeSales Big Brother 3 at the final four. Alison Ansorg and Kassidy Kimata both got a perfect score, and went to a tiebreaker question. Alison's guess was closest to the correct number, making her the winner of the HOH.

## Trivia

* What the Bleep is one of only five competitions that has appeared in every single season, including CSW Big Brother. The others are Knockout, BB Blow-Up, Foggy Memory, and Watch Carefully.
Stay or Fold

## *Big Brother* Recurring Competition

### Description

Try to guess how many objects are in an area and bet by using stay or fold to win a point.

## Appearance(s)

### Seasons

DeSales Big Brother All-Stars
DeSales Big Brother 3

### Other Names/Variations

Buying in Bulk

**Stay or Fold**, also known as the **Counting Competition**, is a recurring Head of Household and Power of Veto competition.

## Rules

A number of odd items are shown to the HouseGuests in various images. Each image consists of two parts:

* A display containing a small amount of the item, with a sign showing exactly how much of the item is in that display.
* A larger display containing a much larger amount of the item.

At the beginning of each round, the HouseGuests are asked to write down their guess at how much of an item is in the larger display.
After everyone has written down an answer, the HouseGuests each announce their guess as to how much of the item is in the large display. They are then given the option to either "stay" with their estimate or "fold".
A HouseGuest who is confident their guess was closer to the actual amount than anyone else's can "stay" in the game for the round.
A HouseGuest who is not so confident in their guess can "fold" and withdraw from the round.
Of the HouseGuests who "stayed", the person who is closest to the correct answer is given one point, while the person who is farthest away from the correct answer is eliminated. Those who "folded" cannot be eliminated, but are also unable to earn points. If only one player stays, that player earns a point.
The first HouseGuest to earn three points or the last houseguest to be eliminated wins the competition.
Golden Ticket

The **Golden Ticket** is a special item that appeared during DeSales Big Brother 3. It was one of the prizes that could be won in the Prize Swap Veto competition.

## Details

The Golden Ticket can be used only during the first HOH competition after it is obtained. During the HOH competition, which is a quiz-style challenge, the Golden Ticket can be used to bypass a particularly challenging question-- automatically earning the user a point for that question (or keeping the user in the game, if the challenge is elimination-style). The Golden Ticket can be used only once during the competition, and it cannot be used for the tiebreaker question.

## History

The first Golden Ticket appeared in DeSales Big Brother 3 as one of the prizes in the Rainbow Carnival Veto competition. It was won by Grace Curry. The next HOH competition, Superhero Headlines, took place during the Week 6 Double Eviction. Grace used the Golden Ticket to automatically earn a point on the second question. This proved to be of use to Grace, as she went on to win Head of Household.
Pressure Cooker

**Pressure Cooker** is a recurring Head of Household competition. It is known for being the longest-lasting type of endurance competition.

## Rules

All of the HouseGuests are put into a "pressure cooker" where they must hold their hands together for as long as possible. The specific hand position varies depending on the theme. If a player separates their hands or moves their hands out of view at any point, they are instantly eliminated. The last person holding their hands together wins HOH.

## History

The Season 1 instance of this competition lasted approximately 90 minutes. The hand position was holding the hands flat against each other with fingers and palms touching, like a "praying" gesture. Ultimately, Grace Bowmaster willingly separated her hands to give Sammi Stec the HOH.

In Season 2, the competition lasted over four hours, making it the longest competition in DeSales Big Brother history. The hands position was folding the hands one over the other with fingers curled, like a "caroling" gesture. After a certain time checkpoint, the rules changed to require the remaining players to hold their hands over their head. The last three standing were Bobby Rice, Josh Schwirtz and PJ Moran. Josh and PJ eventually got Bobby to drop; then, Josh immediately followed dropped as well, making PJ the winner of the HOH.

In Season 3, the competition took place at the start of 2-in-1 Week, meaning there would be two winners. The players had to block the "mind control waves" coming at them by holding both of their hands on their head. After the first checkpoint, the players instead had to flex their folded hands upwards; after the second checkpoint, they had to hold their arms to the side and twist their arms so their palms were facing upwards. After a standoff that lasted over an hour with no one dropping, Grace Curry, Cas Danubio and Alison Ansorg made an agreement with production to end the competition via the spin of a wheel-- granted that whoever was eliminated by the wheel would receive immunity. The wheel landed on Grace, making Cas and Alison the two HOH's after about three and a half hours.

## Trivia

* The Season 2 iteration of this competition is the longest competition in DeSales Big Brother history, lasting 4 hours and 19 minutes.
* The Season 3 iteration is the only instance in which production modified the rules of a competition at the HouseGuests' request.
Rosie Dunphy

## Season History

**Rosie Dunphy** *(she/her)* is the runner-up of DeSales Big Brother 3.

Best known for her dominance in physical competitions, Rosie proved herself a strong competitor right off the bat when she won the Day 1 Safety competition for herself and her duo partner, Alison Ansorg. Although they lost two of their closest allies, Relena Kiser and Mary Grace Collins, in the pre-jury, Rosie and Alison recovered quickly thanks to their alliance with Brielle Lewandowski and Kassidy Kimata, known as B.A.R.K. Rosie was nominated only twice throughout the season, and both times she won the Power of Veto and saved herself. Rosie used her HOH reigns to take out the strongest opposition to her alliance, namely Mackenzie Schmidt and Cas Danubio. After 3 members of B.A.R.K. made it to the final three, Rosie honored her Dynamic Duo by taking Alison to the final two over Kassidy. However, Alison's social game won her 4 of the 7 jury votes, making her the winner, and leaving Rosie as the runner-up.

Although Rosie did not win the season, her competition prowess makes her a legend-- winning 3 HOH's, 3 POV's and 1 Safety competition, Rosie has more competition wins in a single season than any other HouseGuest.

Emily Barrett

* All-Stars
* Season 1

## Season History

**Emily Barrett** *(she/her)* was a HouseGuest on DeSales Big Brother 1. She returned for DeSales Big Brother: All-Stars as the secret Big Brother Saboteur.

On Season 1, Emily started the game with decently strong connections, particularly with those in her class (such as Molly Hofstaedter, Sarah Danner, and Grace Bowmaster). Her strategy was to lay as low as possible, even going so far as to avoid the HOH Room entirely, in the hopes of being forgotten about by the other HouseGuests. This plan was disrupted during Week 2 when she won the Power of Veto by a huge margin, despite trying to throw the competition. Her under-the-radar strategy kept her off the block until Week 4, when Molly named her the replacement nominee. Though at first Izzy Criscuolo seemed to be the house target, Dillon Parish talked to Grace, Eileen Deisemann and Sammi Stec about keeping Izzy in the game as a weaker player, and taking out Emily while they had the chance. The four settled on voting to evict Emily, as did the rest of the house, and Emily was evicted by a vote of 9-0. She had a chance to return to the game thanks to the Underworld twist, but lost her face-off against Aaron Green. She placed 12th. Emily, along with Sarah and Ashley Mayers, chose to send Grace back into the game over Aaron.

On All-Stars, Emily entered the game as the secret Big Brother Saboteur. Emily had to carry out multiple tasks each week to sabotage the HouseGuests and the game, while doing her best to keep the others from figuring out her identity or evicting her. As the Saboteur, Emily intentionally sabotaged HouseGuests that she predicted would react severely, particularly Bobby Rice. Emily formed a strong bond with Peyton McPeak (arguably the only one to do so), and was recruited by them to join ALLY-ance along with Moriah Wilt and Lucia Pastor-- though the latter two had no loyalty to this alliance. Emily's somewhat lackluster social game inadvertently helped her stay off the HouseGuests' radars, and she was one of the only HouseGuests who was never suspected as being the Saboteur. On Day 22, after the Veto Meeting, Emily appeared via video message to reveal herself as the Saboteur, and announce that she was exiting the game. Upon leaving the house, Emily placed 11th.

## Rules

On GO, the HouseGuests are given a link to a certain website with various facts about a particular subject. Each HouseGuest has their own private document containing various clues about the topic, which can be answered with the information on the website. Each clue that is answered unlocks one letter that is part of a secret message. The goal is to answer clues until enough of the blanks have been filled in to take a guess at the secret message.

The first person to call out the correct secret message wins the Power of Veto.

## History

The alliance formed during Week 2 after Bobby told Megan about his alliance with Gabby and Moriah, and Megan was able to get them to bring her into the group. From this point on, the Quad Squad controlled much of the game until Week 5, when Bobby was put on the block by PJ. After Kylie, the other nominee, saved herself with the Veto, PJ chose Moriah to go on the block next to Bobby, guaranteeing that the alliance would lose a member. Unbeknownst to the other members, Megan was ultimately the most loyal to PJ, and was on board with the plan to take Bobby out. Although Gabby voted to evict Moriah, Megan voted alongside Sam, Josh, and PJ (as the tie breaking vote) to evict Bobby.

Bobby was in many ways the glue that held the alliance together, so the Quad Squad was rather shaky after his eviction. Megan's loyalty was primarily with PMS, but managed to keep ties with Gabby and Moriah during Week 6 as Josh took out Lexie-- despite Megan considering voting to evict Moriah at first.

When Megan won the Week 7 HOH, she decided to make Sam her backdoor target, and thus reignited her alliance with Gabby and Moriah as she got them (as well as Kylie) on board to take Sam out. Once Sam won the Veto, foiling the backdoor plan, Megan convinced Sam to save Gabby, then blindsided her by putting up Josh. Despite Sam and PJ wanting to save Josh, Gabby and Moriah stuck with Megan's plan to vote Josh out, enabling Megan to cast the tie breaking vote to evict him.

The Quad Squad lost its second member during the double eviction, when PJ won HOH and Gabby and Moriah ended up on the block together. Megan was able to control the vote to keep Moriah in the game, evicting Gabby. From Week 8 on, Megan and Moriah teamed up with Kylie to take out PJ first, then Sam second. When Megan won the Final HOH, she chose to stay loyal to her remaining Quad Squad alliance member by evicting Kylie over Moriah.

Ultimately, the Quad Squad proved to be quite the successful alliance, as two of its members made it to the final two. However, much of the alliance's success can be attributed to Megan, considering her strong connections outside the alliance and the fact that 4 of the 6 competition wins by the alliance were hers.
BB Basic Babes

## Alliance Profile

The **BB Basic Babes** were an alliance on CSW Big Brother that consisted of Emma Donahue, Evan Graham, Lucia Pastor, Sara Rutman and Shivani Mehta. It was formed in Week 1 during Evan's HOH reign. By Week 3, Anaya Harrison was added to the group. This six-person alliance had a heavy hand in the first five evictions of the season, and did not lose its first member until Week 6 when Jaydon won HOH and attempted to backdoor Evan, using Anaya and Sara as pawns. Shivani won the Veto and chose to save Anaya, and when Evan was nominated alongside Sara, the Basic Babes opted to save Evan, making Sara the first member of the alliance to be evicted. From this point on, however, the Basic Babes would continue to crumble, and Emma, Shivani and Anaya were all evicted consecutively in the next three evictions.

Alison Ansorg

## Season History

**Alison Ansorg** *(she/her)* is the winner of DeSales Big Brother 3.

Alison entered the house with a great deal of social connections. In addition to her Dynamic Duo partner, Rosie Dunphy, she had very close bonds with Relena Kiser, Mary Grace Collins, and William Borusiewicz. Unfortunately, these close bonds caused her allies to be targeted, resulting in both Relena and Mary Grace being evicted pre-jury. In spite of this, Alison was actually positioned quite well in the house-- she worked with Rosie to take out big threats on the opposing side (such as Mackenzie Schmidt), all the while Rosie was seen as the larger threat of the two. Alison was in jeopardy during the Double Eviction when Grace Curry put Rosie and Alison on the block together, and Rosie won the Veto; however, Alison's talk with Grace helped sway her into targeting William instead. Thanks to the B.A.R.K. alliance, Alison benefited from Rosie and Kassidy Kimata's HOH wins that took out their remaining opposition. On finale night, Rosie rewarded Alison for her loyalty by taking her to the final two over Kassidy. Though the vote was close, Alison's remarkable social game, as well as her compelling jury speeches, swayed the jury in her favor, winning the season by a vote of 4-3.

Garden Secrets

**Garden Secrets** is a recurring Power of Veto competition.

## Rules

One at a time, each HouseGuest plays the online game Garden Secrets. In each of three levels, the player searches through a garden picture to locate each of the 26 letters of the alphabet. Points are earned for each letter that is found, as well as a remaining time bonus after a level is completed. Only five minutes are allotted for each level, and clicking where there isn't a letter begets a five-second penalty. If a player runs out of time, their score is finalized and they cannot progress to any remaining levels. A player can spend some of their points for a hint to reveal a letter. After three levels, the player with the most total points wins the Power of Veto.

**Highway to Spell** is a recurring Head of Household and Power of Veto competition.

## Rules

Each player begins the competition with the same inventory of letters that they can use to spell words. In each round, the players have a limited time to spell a word of a specific length. When time runs out, anyone who failed to spell a word or spelled their word incorrectly is eliminated. This continues for several more rounds. Once a letter is used to spell a word, it can't be used again, meaning that in each round the players have fewer letters available to spell words.

In the final round, the players remaining have a limited time to spell the longest word possible with the letters they have remaining. Whoever spells the longest word in the final round, or otherwise the last player eliminated, wins the HOH or POV.

## Trivia

* Sammi Stec is the only HouseGuest to win this competition twice.
	+ She, along with Moriah Wilt and Molly Hofstaedter, are the only HouseGuests to play this competition twice.
Lucia Pastor

* All-Stars
* CSW

## Season History

**Lucia Pastor** *(she/her)* is the winner of CSW Big Brother. She returned for DeSales Big Brother: All-Stars as a special addition to the cast, alongside fellow CSW BB alumni Evan Graham and Peyton McPeak. Lucia went on the win the season, making her the first ever two-time winner of Big Brother.

On CSW Big Brother, Lucia was one of only a few HouseGuests to throw herself into the strategy from Day 1. She was one of the main leaders of the BB Basic Babes, along with Evan Graham-- they led the charge in taking out their opposition in the No-Names, while also having a deal with Mary Fader and Jaydon Reap that increased their umbrella of safety in the house. Though they held nearly equal competition records, Lucia allowed Evan to be perceived as the bigger threat, which helped keep her off the block until the final four. Lucia's unwavering loyalty to Evan paid off when he won the final HOH, and chose to take her to the final two. Ultimately, Lucia won the jury vote over Evan in a vote of 4-3, making her the winner of the season.

Lucia appeared in DeSales Big Brother: All-Stars as a special addition to the cast. She was a member of the powerful Zodiac Killers; however, this alliance soon showed signs of cracking, leading her to make a side alliance with Bobby Rice and Kylie Menow. When Evan used his HOH to target Kylie, Lucia and Bobby flipped the vote to save her and evict Dillon Parish, infuriating their original alliance members. This decision turned disastrous for Lucia's game as Kylie would later be swindled by Evan into backdooring Bobby, and Lucia would have been evicted right after him if not for a clutch double eviction Veto win. Having no allies left, Lucia united Gabby Kmetz, Molly Hofstaedter and Sammi Stec to form the Fab Four, a tight-knit alliance that gave Lucia the protection she needed to regain her footing. Though her position was still shaky, this became irrelevant when Lucia suddenly won every competition she played in from Final 5 to Final 3, earning her a seat in the final two next to Gabby (the only person she had a chance of beating in a jury vote). Though Evan, Moriah Wilt and Nicole Balistrere were all bitter and voted against Lucia, her cutthroat yet strategic gameplay surpassed Gabby's, winning her the 4 jury votes she needed-- making her the winner of Big Brother once again.
