## Player History

### **Big Brother Canada 5:**

Austyn joined the house with a showstopping entrance and kept his energy going by choosing to open the Mystery Box that was presented to the house. His choice to open the box gave him the Charmed Coin which gave him immunity till Jury started but him getting the coin left him ineligible to win the first two Head of Household Competitions. Him opening the box was also the sole reason Misty Day returned to the game. After Austyn earned a free ride to jury he sat back for a bit even turning down an initial alliance with Melody, he started to play a lowkey game even after forming the Clout Chasers alliance with Ozone, Chi Chi and Melody. He felt so safe being guaranteed jury and being backed up by his alliance Austyn didn't really branch out much with anyone else, which led to his attitude slightly annoying the house. When Melody was evicted Week 2 in a blindside vote for him and the Clout Chasers it occurred to Austyn that he might not have been in such a great spot as he originally thought Knowing his immunity ended going into Week 3 Austyn tried hard to win his first HOH Comp, but it didn't pan out when instead Blubs won the title for the week. It came to no surprise to Austyn when Blubs nominated him and Stephanie for eviction, he knew he was nominated for virtually never interacting with Blubs. Austyn wasn't sure if he was the target or not but he did not want to find out so he gunned for the Veto but wasn't able to pull it out when his fellow nominee Stephanie got the Veto instead, this got Austyn feeling a bit nervous because now he had no idea who Blubs would name as a replacement, but he soon found out when his Clout Chaser buddy Ozone was thrown right on the block next to him. Austyn knew that this would be a close vote between the two of them and he begged for his Best Friend Chi Chi to vote to keep him and she agreed without hesitation. Finally it was eviction night and Austyn kept getting more and more nervous as the day went on, he was anticipating a tied vote of 4-4 since he thought he had Chi chi's vote and he knew Ozone was being targeted by Blubs and Flacca for a backdoor plan and he also knew Stephanie would float to who ever seemed like the house target, he was ready for it to be a tie. When the vote Came back Austyn was completely thrown for a loop when the vote came back 5-3 evicting Austyn from the house putting him in 11th place and sending him away as the first member of the jury. Later that night on *Cucu's Couch Aftershow* it was revealed to him in the goodbye messages that his ally Chi Chi voted for him to leave. Austyn stated that he has never felt so betrayed by someone before since he genuinely thought him and Chi Chi were true friends. Austyn's last words before heading to the Jury House was that his biggest mistake was getting to comfortable with his Charmed Coin and admitted it went to his head a little bit and that he should've tried to be more social with people outside of his alliance. Austyn returned on finale night as a member of the jury where he cast his vote for Sue to win *Big Brother Canada 5.*
