Lol you fucking idiot. How would you know if I had your back if you spent over 24 hours making up excuses to not have a single conversation with me? I told you I was trying to have a strategic conversation with you so we could form a new alliance, and you never even gave me the opportunity to speak to you. I was being 100% sincere about wanting to work with you and Nicole long-term. How can you think I would NOT have your back when I had no other options in the game? lol. It is common sense.

Taylor, cut it out. You're being overly aggressive about plans that nobody could possibly know were completely 100% realistic or believable. It's a game. There's a level of mistrust there to begin with. You've now mentioned wanting to work with at least 3 people of the 6 people on that tribe very far into the game, and that they're all stupid for not wanting to work with you. But that in and of itself probably makes people feel like they can't trust what you're saying if you're trying to offer similar deals all over the place. Stop being offended and start accepting that this is a game. You're better than this.

But that in and of itself probably makes people feel like they can't trust what you're saying if you're trying to offer similar deals all over the place. Stop being offended and start accepting that this is a game. You're better than this. I was actually waiting for this response from you, specifically I only knew I would get this response, because I never really clarified what I meant. I wanted to work with you over anyone. Fei was included because I figured you 2 would be wanting to work together. I was 100% committed to that, and never approached anyone else with any alliance offers. Any time I offered a deal to someone in the game, I was being sincere. If I had no intentions of working with someone at a specific time, I let them know that we probably could not work together until a later time in the game. It wasn't until I started to sense that you and Fei weren't being as honest with me as I would have liked that I wanted to approach Craig with an offer. I knew things weren't working with you, so I looked other places. I never tried to form multiple alliances at the same time though. Probably an error on my part, as I now realize that a lot of people got away with sloppy gameplay, and mayhap I could have just played everyone, but I also tried to play a very honest and loyal game, and I believe I did just that. There are some things, in retrospect, that I should have done differently, but I will always stand by the fact that I played an extremely honest and trustworthy game, and did not create alliances all over the place. I was sincere with both you and Craig, but the alliance offers came at different times because of different circumstances. Anyway, I tend to get like this at the end of games, for some reason. I understand that it is not very admirable.

Alright Taylor, you got my vote and now you me and Nicole are working with each other. Let's think of all the other people we can grab as numbers...
Like no one?
Everyone else was in an alliance, that I was involved in aswell. Sorry, but even if I wanted to change things, I couldn't have gotten that extra two votes and I couldn't have broken the alliance I was in. Would it have helped me if I did? Definitely. Could it happen? Nope.

Well Jared was supposed to be involved in it as well. Jared was the one who told me that he was interested in working with you and Nicole. We only needed the 4 of us. But even if Jared was just playing me the whole time, and didn't want to work with either me or Nicole for some reason, it is more the fact you made excuses for over a day to not even talk to me. Maybe things wouldn't have worked out, but at least have that conversation to see what your options are. I just found it a bit frustrating that one of the people I thought needed me in the game wouldn't even give me the opportunity to help BOTH of us out. I just wanted to at least have the conversation with you.. that is all. Also, I apologize for being much more aggressive than I should have been. These games get to me sometimes . I am fine during the game, but it is always after the game where I start thinking about things, and I get really upset with how things went. But I am going to work on watching what I say.

Jared wasn't involved with it. If he was, he didn't make me feel like it. I posted a quote in my confessional the round after you got voted off where Jared was pretty much more enthusiastic about you leaving than anyone else.
I made excuses because I couldn't change a thing but you wanted to change things. It's hard to say no, because I'm not sure what you could change if your target was shifted from Alex to me.
Sorry if it seems wimpy, but in my mind, it's the best way to deal with things sometimes.
