Matty, you spent a couple of PM's reassuring me that you were my friend, my ally. However, you jumped on board and voted me out, why was that?

Matty; hey sydney! Ok, Im going to be completly honest. I did consider you an ally, I told alot of others that I was their ally whom I wasnt an ally to, but I completly intended to stick true to you, this is why I ended up voting you off;
Because I learned of the power kelly had ,and how tight her coach shawn and jamie were and that they had the numbers at that time and I was trying to get shawn to trust me even more and build myself in to the inside from the outside, the sierra vote and the vote for you were votes I had to do not because I wanted to, but because I had to play things smart and not reveal the target on me as a strong strategic player, and Sierra was inactive cuz of her fires around where she live, so it was different then your vote off.
You are the only Vote off that I went along with the majority without fighting to get someone else out ,and not giving my opinion or trying to take out whom I Wanted out, because at that point I couldnt, and had I tryed it would've hurt my strategy and revealed some of my strategy if I had tryed to save you.
Even though I wanted to save you, I had to be smart and carefully play others I didnt totally trust at the time or those I totally didnt trust ,period, to get inside with the people in power (Old jagati members).
The only genuine alliance relationships I had from old jagati members were with shawn and jamie , and I was ok with JR going because I didnt know if i could trust him at that time, but then after his vote off i understood him better and I considered me and him to have a genuine relationship once we started understanding eachother and how others were operating to attempt to keep people like me and JR from teaming up , as twisted as that sounds. ::Laughs::
Anyways, ill repeat once more, you were the only vote off I had to make that I didnt neccisarrily want to do but went along with it to gain trust from those in control and to bide my time for an opening for me to strike, which I was able to start doing a round or two after your vote off.
I am sorry if you feel I backstabbed and betrayed you but I fully intended on keeping my word to you until everything changed and I needed to make sure I was seen as weak/not a threat, loyal and that they could trust working with me, it didnt take long for me and shawn to gain that relationship but those like kelly i was just playing her because I know kelly was playing me so I had to be carefull and use the old cliche of "Keep your friends close, but keep your enemys closer".
Thank you for your question sydney and I hope we can talk and continue to be good friends long after this game is over. Thank you for your question.
So your vote off is the only vote that I didnt even attempt to have a say on, and that i went with the majority to gain favor and get myself in good with them as strategy. It was purely for those strategic reasons to get myself from a disadvantagous position, to a comfortable position with some power in the game which is what I did as the rounds went on further into the game and I had my shot to do certain things to try and ensure my path to the final 2, but when you were voted off I was still in the minority, grasping on straws and trying to adapt to a new strategy of getting in with the old ajgati members, some of them atleast, which I did, so that was the only reason i voted for you, had i voted differently I wouldve outed my strategy and they wouldnt have given me such a pass because they didnt think i was a threat or didnt think i was after them if i had voted to keep you ,at that point before i was able to gain some control.
Had old takeo had control and colby and sierra were still in the game, I garuntee you that you would have lasted much longer, you possibly couldve even been here right now. Anyways, thank you for your question sydney! :-)

PS: right after the merge I didnt want to "rock the boat" and have me be seen as a threat at that time, so I could do what I did, and wait for the open window to occur in the game, which it did at the kelly vote off ,of which me and erin were a good deal responsible for her vote off, but I dont want to interfere with the answers im going to be giving for kellys questions, so Ill just stop it right there. Anyways I just wanted you to know exactly why I went along with the others and voted you out.

No Shawn, sorry, my vote was really depending on Matty's answer.
I have made a decision and good luck to both of you. Congrats for getting this far.
