Haus of Gaga: Beautiful, Dirty, Rich (Post 199)

[Lady Gaga]

Post 71 has been edited to reflect the revisions. Again, my apologies to both Liz and Audrey.

[SneakyLizKimWasRobbed]

Sorry about that Audrey

Billy and Stephen, send a PM/post a case to help me make my decision please! I'm open to all possibilities as I haven't talked to anyone yet!

[Audrey Tautou]

Ahh... what an interesting start to my day. Congratulations, Liz. I'm sure you deserved it much more than I did.

[Audrey Tautou]

And merry Christmas everyone!

[Steven Harper]

Merry Christmas everyone! Good luck to Billy Ray as well, as I'm sure this will be very tight.

[SneakyLizKimWasRobbed]

Both of you sent me pleas, and no one sent me any reasoning why I should keep the noms the same, so I think it is only fair that I choose to save one of you.

I wish I could save you both, but I cannot, so I will save the person with the more convincing plea.

I choose to save...














































































Billy Ray Cyrus! Congrats! Sorry Steven but good luck in the eviction.

[Billy Ray Cyrus]

Thank you.

[Lady Gaga]

The Fame Monster has chosen to overthrow the wishes of the Fame. Congratulations Billy Ray, you will be here to compete next week! Annie, since Liz has vetoed one of your nominations, you must now pick a hausguest to nominate in Billy Ray's stead. You have until December 24 at 7:30AM GMT-5 to announce a replacement nominee.

[Simon Cowell]

I've just finally got a AIM sn. It's scowell666. So, feel free to talk to me on there to whether it be something about the game, or you just want to chat, or you want me to judge how much talent you actually have, or you want me to insult someone else.

[Lady Gaga]

Annie has made her decision as to whom will be replacing Billy Ray. That person will be at risk of eviction this week. Who has Annie chosen? Let's find out. Billy Ray's replacement nominee is:

Audrey Tautou

I'm sorry Audrey, but the nomination chair is waiting. Either you or Steven will be the first person evicted from the Haus of Gaga.

[Lady Gaga]

[Eviction Ceremony 1]

Hello Hausgests. It is now time to commence with the first Eviction Ceremony. Please submit a vote to evict either

Steven Harper

or

Audrey Tautou

. Neither of the two nominees can vote, nor can

Annie Duke

, the current holder of the Fame.

Along with your vote, you are to provide confessionals. These confessionals will be a means by which you can articulate how you feel about the game and your position in it. Your confessionals will not be shared while you are still in the game, and will never be shared should you make it to the Jury. Both the Fame and the two nominees will submit confessionals each week as well. On weeks where a tie is possible, the Fame will also need include a vote with his or her confessional.

QUESTIONS

[01] Briefly describe your feelings about the beginning of the game. Do you believe you have gained a secure position, or do you feel like you are going to have to fight to stay?

[02] Do you feel you will be capable of adapting to the new environment? Why or why not?

[03] What do you think about Annie winning the Fame?

[04] Do you regret voting her? (If applicable)

[05] Who were you expecting her to nominate this week? Were you surprised by any of the nominations? Why or why not?

[06] What are your thoughts on Liz winning the Fame Monster? Do you think it was a good idea for her to save Billy Ray?

[07] Which hausguests do you have an alliance with?

[08] Which hausguest do you feel is your biggest threat? Why?

[09] Which hausguest do you feel is your smallest competition? Why?

[10] Lastly, who are you voting for, Steven or Audrey? Why are you voting them?

You have seventy-two hours [December 27 at 7:30PM GMT-5] to submit your votes and confessionals. Nominees, good luck.

[Cobalt]

Are you wearing a garbage bag?

[Lady Gaga]

Audiences, do not forget that your voice can be heard during the Eviction Ceremonies as well. The hausguest who receives the majority of votes from the members of mafiascum will have one vote cast against them. If you want to take an active role in this game, submit a vote via PM to this account.

[Lady Gaga]

Hausguests and members of the audience, this is just a reminder that you have until tomorrow at 7:30PM GMT-5 to submit your votes.

[Lady Gaga]

Deadline has come, but I only have five of the eleven (counting the audience) votes. I think it would be extremely unfair to both nominees to count only half the votes, and seeing as how it is a holiday weekend, I acknowledge the possible access limitations, so I am extending the vote deadline until Wednesday. The sooner all hausguests submit their votes, the sooner we can continue with the game.

[Meryl Streep]

Hmmm, it appears the holiday 'nog has taken quite a toll on everyone.

That's all.

[Lady Gaga]

Deadline for votes is today at 4:00PM GMT-5. I am not extending it again.

[Lady Gaga]

Hausguests, the votes are in. Steven, Audrey, one of you will be the first competitor to leave the Haus of Gaga. Let me inform you all about eviction procedure. When I reveal the vote, the evicted hausguest may submit one final post in the thread, and must then leave the game. Those evicted, just like in a mafia game, are then prohibited from speaking in thread. I'd prefer there to be no communication with players still in the game as well, but I can only hold evicted hausguests to their honor. With this being said, let us proceed.

By a vote of 6-3,

Steven

,

You are safe, which means

Audrey

, you have been evicted from the Haus of Gaga. I'm sorry, but the Fame has taken your life in this game, and it is time for you to go. Please, gather your belongings. A limousine is waiting just outside to escort you home.

[Lady Gaga]

Both Tina Fey and Wierd Al Yankovic failed to submit a vote, and they will both receive strikes. Tina, this is your second strike, and with one more you will be exited from the game.

[Lady Gaga]

The Fame Competition will come later tonight.

[Lady Gaga]

[Week Two - Dance in the Dark]

That's right, hausguests, this week's theme is Dance in the Dark! Much like Week One, it is likely that many of you are still in the dark about this game. Alliances may be forming, and friendships may be growing, but what do you really know about each other? Maybe you will find out this week. With that said, it is time to begin our next Fame Competition.

[THE FAME COMPETITION 2]

Guess in the Dark

Hausguests, your chance at fame have come again. Annie, as outgoing holder of the Fame, you are not eligible to compete. Tonight's game will once again test your knowledge about your competitors. I will ask a series of questions about the responses given to the application prompts. Each question will contain a number. The answer will be higher or lower than the number given. Your response to each question will be either HIGHER or LOWER. If you get the answer correct, you will remain in the competition. If you are incorrect, however, you will be eliminated. The last person standing will be the new Fame. There is to be no communication among the hausguests during the course of the challenge. All submissions will be due in forty-eight hours, January 2 at 5:00PM GMT-5. Good luck.

[01] Of the fourteen hausguests, how many said that their Zodiac sign was Scorpio? Is the answer higher or lower than four?
[02] Of the current hausguests, how many preferred Big Brother to Survivor? Is the answer higher or lower than eight?
[03] Of the fourteen hausguests, how many said that their favorite flower was the rose? Is the answer higher or lower than three?
[04] Of the fourteen hausguests, how many said their favorite song was one of mine [Lady Gaga's]? Is the answer higher or lower than two?
[05] Of the fourteen hausguests, how many said that Johnny Depp was their favorite actor? Is answer higher or lower than than one?
[06] Of the remaining hausguests, how many said that their favorite school subject was math? Is the answer higher or lower than five?
[07] Of the remaining hausguests, how many said that their biggest fear was failure? Is the answer higher or lower than one?

[Tie Breaker] Of the hausguests competing in this competition, about how many said that Pizza was their favorite food? The person who comes closest to the correct number without going over will be counted right.

[Tina Fey]

Tina, this is your second strike, and with one more you will be exited from the game.

[SneakyLizKimWasRobbed]

Unfortunately Audrey we were never able to speak in this game so I chose to evict you Sorry

[Lady Gaga]

Just a reminder, all submissions are due today at 5:00PM GMT-5. So far, I have five of the eleven submissions.

[Lady Gaga]
