Hi Rhi! I can sadly only see your game from my phone screen an entire continent away, so I apologize that you seem upset I short changed you :(

Luke Dilemma

I guess I should have specified that I only meant I was the one to pitch Luke in my alliance with Rob, Tara, and Andre. I never heard that you also were pitching him, I thought Rob was tbh, but either way I agree it was known he was leaving. Had it not been known and so easily achieved, I would have tried harder and stuck my neck out further for it to happen, as I think I stood a lot to gain from it. Youre right though, I didnt do much (though I also said "others wanted him too, though, I cannot take full credit ofc", which I thought would negate any frustration) Sorry!

F8 Dilemma

I agree that you and I PMed about the chat prior to it being made, but Andre and I had been strategizing that vote for hours before that, like before we started PMing, about how we were going to undercut Rob- we were planning all these details and running options through our head. I guess I was just waiting for an opportunity in PMs with you to officially launch the plan into motion. You were VERY perceptive that tribal though and in a very similar headspace as us, so I should have given you credit and I apologize for not doing so! I dont think I lied though- theres always a bigger picture in Survivor and each person interprets their own game differently, so I am a little sad at how liberally the word "lie" is being thrown around NGL- thats ok though I own this mistake!

Your Exit

I never considered you as disposable, I really valued our time together in the game and thought of you as a great player/friend. But to answer your question, I think when you told me that Andre had a 99% chance of winning in the end is when I started shifting towards a more "disposable" mindset with you. I didnt believe that this was a truthful opinion of yours, which clued me in to the fact that you had your own agenda and were likely trying to manipulate me. I didnt think you wanted to sit with me in the end, and I would still be quite surprised if you actually did (sorry if wrong). I agree the lying was unnecessary, but I had no clue about items or what you were capable of stirring up with Danielle. Not to mention if I told you that you were headed home and it got out, my allies would lose complete faith in me and I easily couldve gone had I lost immunity after.

I am sorry if the Mr Jury Management comment was unnecessary, I guess I was just trying to convey my point that by the time people realized I was a threat it was typically too late for them to act on it, I didnt mean to hang your exit over your head or anything like that, thats just not the type of person I am. Lastly, I did not campaign to get you out, Danielle was campaigning to me to do it, and then Rob voiced he wanted you gone over Danielle due to challenge strength. I put zero effort in getting others to vote you out and I 100% mean that. I feel like I am a little misunderstood here, I really thought I was doing the bare minimum to get to FTC with the best chances of winning- I never took action to try to make your exit sting any extra amount or twist the knife.

I recognize you were a good and true ally to me and I appreicate that (and the Brenda gifs), and I like to think I was to you as well for the vast majority of the game. Hopefully that means something, but I probably could have handled your exit better so I do understand if the good portions of our relationship are a little murky. Thank you for allying with me though and for all the fun! The game just got to the point where I had to make tough decisions and ultimately I just went with the Final 3 that I believe gave me the best chance of winning
