Heyy!

Hey, we are doing shem right?

To my knowledge yeah, why?

Ariel heard from Jess that you plan to flip on her I told her it’s bullshit and that you’d never do that to us especially when we have the votes this time and there’s no idol

Why

We can’t beat Willy or Jess at the end they win if they get there and Shem was a number for them? I just want one of us to win but now we’ve been cut down to 2

I’m driving atm give me a minute and I will explain my vote

No worries I’m not mad at you just confused

Okay here it is. From the time we were in our first tribe I had a feeling you and Ariel were very close just based on interactions around the camp, I truly do enjoy both of you. When we flipped to the five person tribes we tried our best to get Willy out which obviously didn’t work. Then came the merge and I started hearing from people that you and her were throwing my name out as a “comp beast” which I honestly think I’m horrible at these comps, and that I should go. Then came when Yelena left, she was my number one so I felt stuck because again from things I had heard you were tight with Ariel and Ruby, making me think if that’s true, that’s their final three and it doesn’t include me. Coming around to last vote when Truman left, I was grateful that those who said they weren’t going to vote for me followed through, but I didn’t know who had what powers or what idols remained. Come to this vote, Ariel has now won 2/3 immunities and came close to winning her third. With Ruby gone I had been approached by someone who told me that I was going and if I felt close to my original tribe because they were throwing my name out there as an option to go, and that I had asked Ariel for her coins so she can win immunity which is partly true. She offered them up to me first for me to step down, I did not ask for them first. Then I got sent a quote from a chat where you had said that you were worried I had so many tokens and that I was planning something when in reality I only had enough to buy a double vote and an idol nullifier which wouldn’t have been useful. I did not use my double vote, I wanted to save it for either the final 9 or final 8. I was not aware of the split vote for you until tribal, when I was again told by two people that you two were going to write my name down. One Yelena and Truman left I honestly didn’t know where I stood with anyone and had to follow the numbers

I was never gonna write your name down at all and I actually was not very close w Ariel I was close with Yelena tho. I have never called you a comp beast that would be dumb bc it's not even true. None of us can win against willy and jess and we need to work together against it.

I want them out as well, but with Ruby being gone there was no way we had the numbers to do anything, if I had used my double vote again Shemar it still would’ve been 4 her and 4 Shemar with her more than likely going. I want them out cause as much as I get along with them I’m not stupid, they are playing a great game. And as for the false trail of writing my name down I guess I would have preferred that y’all tell me that info (unless you did and I missed it) cause then I may have tried to swing things a different way. I like Ariel and got along with her very much, but from things I guessed and heard it just made sense to take a shot when I could. And I am telling you with 100% honesty I was not aware of the plan to split the votes

I did say in the gc that I was lying to wily about my vote to get info, that's when I said that

Maybe you missed it, but we def need together one of them tonight.

Then I will take full responsibility for that and missing it. But I do agree that one of them needs to go soon. I still have my double vote and could influence some people maybe

I think if you use your double tonight since idols expired we should be able to get one.

and it's ok, I understand <3

If we have the votes I am down for that

I don’t see why we wouldn’t, You me Ruby Yimo and ur double vote is enough

Yimo voted for Ariel as well, do you fully trust him?

I know he did, but I know he still wants Willy and Jess out too he just didn’t think we had the votes. I don’t trust him fully but I trust that he wants them out.

I will have a conversation with him
