Andrew Hogg

Hogg is a player from The Butler Games: Blacklist and the winner of The Butler Games: Please Stand By.

## The Butler Games: Blacklist

Hogg was one of 5 new players to enter The Butler Games Blacklist. He was a member of The Golden Alliance and is most known for his villainous (although unsuccessful) attempts to make moves against his own alliance.

One of his first game moves was volunteering to be the replacement nominee in the second round. He is the first player to ever do this and received no votes for elimination during this voting ceremony. He did, however, cause the vote to tie by voting against alliance member Becca. He is the only player who changed thier vote during the re-vote resulting in Mike being eliminated.

He was in a 'final three deal' with Barnie and Dan, but they began to mistrust him after he caused them to be knocked out of the And Then There Was One HOH competition.

Hogg gained Head of House due The Game Changer, but did not earn the power to nominate due to the Blacklist Twist. He became influencer the following round and nominated Vicky for elimination unaware of the alliance she had with Barnie and Dan. He was nominated alongside her and was eliminated in 6th Place with 4 out of 6 votes cast against him.

In the final, Hogg voted for Becca to win The Butler Games: Blacklist.

## The Butler Games: Please Stand By

Hogg began on the Green Tribe, and quickly made deals to ensure the tribe would stick together where possible. The tribe were able to keep themselves safe for 3 rounds, and Hogg faced elimination for the first time in Round 4, when his tribe lost the Know It All Challenge. The former Green Tribe (now Blue after the tribe merge) all agreed to vote out Julia, but as this was a double elimination they were not sure who else would be joining her in the jury. Hogg went against his tribe, and unsuccessfully voted to eliminate Tom from the game instead. As both tribes voted during this elimination ceremony, his Green Alliance were none the wiser that he had betrayed them. This was just the beginning of Hogg's tactical voting and sneaky gameplay.

In the fifth round, a social twist was activated and players were stuck in a safety and exile chain. Hogg was nominated for elimination by Roy and had to decide one player to save from elimination. Hogg was leaning towards Kwok, but Lindsey tried to convince him otherwise as most players believed Kwok to have a hidden immunity idol. Hogg came to a secret arrangement with Kwok and chose to save them from the vote and in return Kwok used the idol to save Hogg from elimination. Had he not done this, the vote would've tied between Hogg and Tom and a revote would have taken place.

In the sixth round, Hogg betrayed his Green Team Alliance and he voted Rich and Martyn out of the game. However, in the seventh round, he also betrayed his Red Dawn Alliance - a secret alliance created prior to the games beginning - and voted Becca and Andy out. He was the last official alliance member standing for both alliances, and actively voted his allies out of the game.

The final five - Hogg, Emma, Julia, Lindsey and Roy - all discussed the votes during the round table discussion. Members of the jury were also invited to join the conversation and Becca and Andy campaigned for Hogg to be eliminated one way or another. Hogg did not provide a name of the player he was voting, but wrote his vote early on in the discussion. He voted successfully to eliminate Lindsey from the game and felt confident that he was going to be dragged out. He was speechless when Lindsey dragged Roy out of the game.

In the final vote, between him, Julia and Emma - Hogg received 8 out of 12 votes and was crowned the Winner of The Butler Games: Blacklist.
