I guess this will be the thread where I post my votes? I wasn't sure where to post this.
Snap Vote: Clay
I'm mostly sure this is for the HOH. I would be uncomfortable with Janelle, Kaitlin, Mark, Sarah and Will being HOH, and I've talked with and gotten the best sense of Amy, David, Jen, Louise and Marvin and I don't know how they would take it if I voted for them and I don't want to accidentally put them in danger. That leaves Clay, Cody and Austin. Austin seems social, I think he would be a popular pick and I can't really tell how close I am to him even though I do like him. There was a little bit of awkwardness with Cody and I think I would be fine with him as HOH but I don't want to vote for him. That leaves Clay, who I have had a middle of the road interaction with. I've talked with him a good amount but not a lot, I get the sense he isn't incredibly social and I feel like he's more laid back and wouldn't gun for anyone who voted for him. Hopefully I can explain myself to him afterward!
Sorry Clay, you seem like a cool guy and I'm sorry if you meant what you said about your vote for me, but I've talked to Amy more and I feel better about her. I don't think you would have the votes even if I did vote with you.
Kaitlin, you're pretty cool when we talk, but I'm much closer to Jen and I have no idea where you stand. Last round, I had no intention of sending you out the round after you were HOH but this is how things worked out.
Ugh, I feel bad about this. I like you and you told me you wanted to be loyal to our alliance with David and Marvin, and I have no reason to think that you wouldn't. But I also trust Sarah, and I see making a last minute move to keep you as way too risky when I think I should still be in a good position if you left.
Sorry Will, I did like you and if what you told me when you were campaigning for my vote was true then I'm going to feel like shit, but Marvin is a big target and shield who wouldn't go after me. With you I have no idea where you stand in the game, who you would put up or who you're close to besides David and I think it makes more sense strategically if I vote for you.
I love you Marvin. I know a lot of people don't get or don't like your sense of humor, but it never bothered me. You were a very loyal ally and I'm sorry we couldn't work together for longer. The votes just aren't there, especially with Jen volunteering. I'm also sorry that I wasn't willing to use my POV on you, but that would have really hurt my game.
Fast Forward Bootlist 1. Cody 2. Louise 3. Sarah 4. David 5. Austin
1. If I am on the block and for some reason I am not here, I am using my veto on myself 2. If Austin is on the block postveto ceremony and I am not, I am using my veto on him 3. If David is on the block postveto ceremony and me and Austin are not, and Austin is safe, either thanks to the veto or by winning HOH, I use my veto on him
Hopefully I am allowed to do this ^ I should be here anyway
I'm sorry Louise. When I first met you in the game, I liked you the most by far. But over time, I've realized that you have had other plans, and I have other plans too. David or Austin going just doesn't leave me in a good spot, and while you aren't my top choice to get out, I feel like this is the right choice. Love you girl.
This has been the hardest vote I've had to cast. I'm so sorry David, you deserved a better ally than me. I hope this is the right call. Ugh. I really wish I had gotten a chance to talk with you more earlier about it, it feels so shitty to do it like this.
