Welcome to this week's nomination ceremony. This is the second time curiousCat is HOH, let's see how her nominations stack up to last time! To remind you, each week the HOH must nominate two players for eviction. The keys of all other players have been put into the nomination box and will be revealed one by one. If your key is revealed that means you are safe. The two players whose keys are not revealed are nominated for eviction. Let's get started by pulling the first key.

JakeP and Quidose, you have been nominated for eviction. curiousCat, if you'd like to say a few words explaining your nominations you may do so now.

JakeP and Quidnose, you still have a chance to save yourselves. You, along with curiousCat, will be competing in the Veto competition along with 3 other houseguests.

The other three players have been determined by RNG and are :rolldice:

I will see the 6 of you at 8pm. This is a puzzle challenge and again you'll need image editing software. It's not particularly mobile friendly.

Quid, you said you wanted to talk to me right before I got HoH, and I gave you the week. And then I wasn't HoH and you didn't really say... anything to me? Just jackbox things. Which is fine, but not knowing anything about you gamewise sorta means you're up there.

Adjourned.

Welcome to the veto competition. This is called Tic-Tac-Toe...?

In a moment you will be given a puzzle grid which you have to fill with Xs and Os, but of course it's never that simple. You must fill it out to conform to the following rules:

1) There are no more than two consecutive Xs or Os in a row or a column.

2) The number of Xs is the same as the number of Os in each row and column.

3) All rows and columns are unique.

Here is an example. You would be given the board on the left and have to fill it out to create the board on the right.



There is no need to guess. You can solve this logically. The first person to post a picture of their completed puzzle in the thread wins.

Note: I'm anticipating this challenge to be a little difficult so I'll give you some hints.

Hint 1) Your puzzle has 10 spaces in every column (which is 5 Xs and 5 Os) and 14 spaces in every row (which is 7 Xs and 7 Os)

Hint 2) Look for groups of two Xs or Os next to each other, because then you can fill in the spaces on either end.

Hint 3) if you have two Xs separated by a single space, you know that space has to be an O, because otherwise you'd have three Xs next to each other (and vice versa).

Hint 4) If you are stuck, try counting out how many Xs or Os you have left to put in a row or column and thinking about where they can or cannot go.

Are there any questions?
