Okay. I am here, though it is very late where I am. I will probably send out greeting messages and then get some rest, as I need to be awake early in the morning.
Let me describe what happened on the Power tribe from my perspective.
On the first day, I did not feel like I hit it off particularly well with anyone except you and Kass. Revali immediately sent me many long messages and compliments on my personality, but it happened so early that it was clear he was doing it to everyone. Similarly, Magda was friendly, but our conversation was slowly dying.
Kass pulls me aside shortly after the challenge starts and asks if I would like to make an alliance with him and Teebo. He says he would like this alliance because the three of us were clearly not on the top of the social hierarchy on the Power tribe, so we should keep each other safe. No one else had offered me anything, and while Kass did not seem very low on the social totem pole to me, I agreed that Teebo and I were probably low. So I accepted. The whole thing was a little authoritarian on Kass and Teebo's parts, but it was the best I had.
Around that time, PATRICIA! became more active. Teebo initially had a conflict with her and wanted to vote her out, but then they spoke and worked out that their conflict was started by Revali telling both of them the other was throwing their name out. I did not get many details of that exchange, but that sounds entirely feasible to me. Teebo added PATRICIA! to the alliance and decided he wanted to vote for Revali or Magda.
I wanted to form something with you from early on and find a way to tell you what was happening, but I was concerned that you were already closer to more social players like Revali and Magda. You mentioned that you enjoyed Revali the most, that keeping PATRICIA! around would make Revali unhappy, and that kept me reserved. So I stayed quiet and let the move happen. I apologize. I harbor no ill will towards you and would have heavily reconsidered if you were considered for the vote at any point, because like I said earlier, you seem like a fun person to play with.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. I would like to see if there is a way we can move forward from here.

...damn. I meant to say 'the ball is in your court' towards the end of that message. Pretend I did so.

OK, I won't expect to hear anything further from you tonight then. If you're just seeing this before you head out for the night, the gist of this message is going to be positive.
That's very interesting. Honestly, my suspicion was that you were the one driving the whole thing. I figured out pretty fast that you were probably in an alliance with Teebo, since neither of you was the most subtle about it. Oh man, Teebo told me you and Kass were his favorites! Dang. Well that makes this ring true. I guess I assumed that Kass was probably in deep with Revali. They're both chatty and they're both bird dudes, felt like it made sense. I also was thinking that you seemed far more interested in keeping Patricia than anyone else, but it appears that Kass and Teebo may simply have been playing close to the vest. Damn. I honestly thought I was doing really well with Teebo and you; I'm surprised neither of you said anything, but I get it. I should have talked more game with you. It was strange to me how halfhearted Patricia's attempts to get me to vote Teebo were; I suppose her having a plan already makes sense. I don't hold anything against her, really, she just did what she had to to live.
I can see why you might worry I was closer to Magda and Revali. I was closest with them early on, but that started to fade away. Neither of them seemed that interested in talking game in depth with me, and I concluded that they were most likely each other's #1s. For what it's worth, if we go back to Power, which I think might happen, it feels like everyone but me has a partner and I might be in the market for one.
While it still feels a little bad- this does seem reasonable and I think we can recover from this. I wish you guys had included me, but I didn't really hide that I liked Revali, so it makes sense. I'm not particularly interested in voting you out here. Thank you for explaining.
