beastman2764, eat, LHarney and SirAmelio are all immune for the week and will NOT be the first boot.
They had to pick one of their own to become the sole Head of Household for the week and that person is...
LHarney! Congratulations, LHarney, you have won the Head of Household competition! You have until 8PM EST tomorrow to submit nominations, key order, and a speech.
When you're ready, have one person of your team go to their Diary Room requesting the puzzle. You then will be given the puzzle in the group chat you have already for your team and you will submit guesses in there, but you need to make sure to write OFFICIAL: at the start of your official hint requests or guesses.
Now that you are in teams, it’s time to compete in your first Head of Household competition! In this competition, you will be given a puzzle in which you must work together to figure out what a sentence is. When you are ready, message your Diary Room and a group chat will be made for your team, and shortly after we will post the puzzle. The team that figures out the sentence in the shortest amount of time will win the competition and have to select one of their own members to be the HoH. All other members of the team will be immune for the week.
It is recommended that you use an image editing software or pen & paper for this challenge. Also, not every member NEEDS to be present during the challenge, but more people working on the puzzle means faster progress. Every 5 minutes, you may request to fill a square. Message in the group chat which square you would like answered, and a host will tell you which letter corresponds to that square.
*The challenge ends at 8PM EST tomorrow, and you must also have chosen which team member of your group you’ve chosen as HoH in the event you win.* Failure to agree on an HoH by the deadline results in an automatic forfeit of your score. Finally, you may not discuss this challenge with any member from another team.
Houseguests! Wonderland is a place where fantasies come to life! Whilst competing against one another in competitions, you may also choose to compete against one another in the Quest to find the Holy Grail! You will be completing the tasks on your own at whatever pace you desire. But beware, only the first player to successfully complete all of the tasks will obtain the Holy Grail.
Now, what will the Holy Grail do, you might wonder? If the HoH tries to nominate you while you have it, the Holy Grail will protect you, you will be informed of the HoH’s attempt and you will be safe for this week and the next. After that the Holy Grail’s magical powers will vanish. Your first task will be posted in the announcement chat, however after this task, all others will be given to you privately in your Diary Room. *Finally, you are not allowed to collaborate with each other throughout your Quest.*
First task: In this thrilling flash game, you must score up to 64 points. Once you have, take a screenshot and make sure to have your skype included in the picture, and send it to your DR. Once you do, we will give you the next part of the Quest. http://www.freesimon.org
In the real show, the HoH and the nominees are the ones drawing names out of a bag to figure out who else will play in the Power of Veto competition. One of the options is “Houseguest’s Choice”, which means that whoever pulled that gets to pick one person to compete in the game. We will offer the same option here, but since the person pulling “houseguest’s choice” may not be online, *we ask each of you to send in a list of who you’d pick, and the first person on your list that can be legally picked will be who you choose for Houseguest’s Choice.* You are allowed to change your list whenever you desire.

Choosing Teams
A fair warning, your first HoH competition will be done in teams of 4! The winning team will choose which one of them becomes HoH while the rest will be safe for the week. You will form the teams by yourselves - All 4 members need to confirm their team in their Diary Room for the team to be valid. You have until 8PM EST tomorrow to figure out your teams, because that’s when the HoH competition will be announced. Anyone not in a team will not participate in the HoH competition. Please take note that these teams will exist for this week only, it will not carry on to future weeks.
