#clint-ryan

 Ryan, I decided I'm going to record this on audio so you understand that I'm being serious. I'm not just typing because I feel like a lot of emotion gets lost in translation when you're just reading text.

, I'm going to tell you the truth, man. I've been a terrible ally. Yeah, you're absolutely right. I got really nothing to say to that or any counter-argument to make. I guess I just got swept up. I didn't really know who to trust, what to believe. And made me act like a bit of a jerk. Made me very dismissive. I don't want to play the game that way. I really don't. I've always wanted to make an alliance, take it to the end. That's always been my goal. It's just hard to know who to trust. But your hurt sounds very genuine. And that makes me believe that you truly, truly do want to work with me. I know you don't need to prove that. I know you don't need to prove that to me. You've already proved it to me that you're trustworthy. Because like you said, like a fool, I got played and I made you vote out one of your best pals. And you have no clue how much I feel terrible for that.

 maybe you do. I don't know. I think, um, I think I want us to take this chance maybe to just start fresh. I'm going to tell you everything I know. And, you know, if you decide to use it against me, that's your prerogative. I'll be upset. I'll be sad, but I can't say I won't understand, but I just, I hope instead of using it against me, you decide, you know, Clint means business he's not full of shit appreciate your time Ryan thank you

 know, I was talking to Sammy yesterday, or I guess today. I was talking to him today about it, and he also feels like nobody's talking to him. Nobody wants to work with him. I feel that way too, weirdly enough. You know, I say Jim and Theo are on my side, but I do believe that when it comes down to it, they're going to flip on me. You know, they're not loyal all the way to the end. And I don't hold that against them, but it is just a matter of fact. and so I'm going to talk to Sammy about maybe getting us an alliance of the three of us because he said nothing but positive things about you. We all kind of come from a sports background. I mean, he's more of an engineer, but I don't know. I just want to work with you, Ryan. I'm sorry for being such a shitty ally. Yeah.

, Quince. I'm Ian from Lover of a Day of Flavor and chatting to you through voice media just so you can hear me. Firstly, love your accent. I'm a sucker for accent. I always make a joke in my session on the Aorg I play about just, like, listening to people and voice message. Like, I just love accents in general. But I really do appreciate your apology. Like, I don't think I've ever had anyone in a org, like, apocytize over voice messages to see how genuine it is. So I'm really thankful for that.

, yeah, like, I think just my feeling, like, you know, I think with Andrew, you know, he barely chatted to me and then got really, you know, like, just like, hey, vote him. And then, like, didn't take anything under consideration. And with Jack, like, I asked him point blank, like, hey, man, how'd you want it?

 Jack, I asked him, I was like, hey, do you have an idol? I think I was just that way. I felt good with him and he just like, I might or I might not. That's all the information I'm going to give. I was like, I felt really dismissive and like, hey, you don't want to work with me. I don't know. Last round, it sucked. I thought I showed everything. But like, he is what he is and I'm a very open person. Like I, you know, I'm like, will he start over? Like obviously and like, I wear my hat on his sleeve when I play these games. So yeah, like I'm open to it. I love Semmy. He's really cool. He's a really nice guy and would definitely be open to that three. um i'm happy for an alliance chat to be made with it as well um yeah

 think there's just something to be wary of. And I know you're close with Jack, but I don't trust him at all. And I don't really want to work with him long term. And I'm being open and honest with you. Like, you can use that against me. But the idol thing really rubbed me the wrong way and, like, not getting any straight answers from him. So he didn't, yeah, chat to me at all. in the last hours of the round and even before I went to bed. So, yeah, I just want you to know that.

 like some of the other stuff like Theo, Jem, Bree, Star. I think they're the main ones. I don't get anything from them. I barely get any chats. Marissa a little bit, but I get more from her. So like they hold no value to me at all. Like they don't attempt to play with me. Why would I attempt to play with them? I really don't like Bree I got a call out in tribal chat where she's like Ryan pops on to see Ricky's demise or something respectfully I chat to you, you simply just ignore me she hasn't responded to me in a day and a half I'm trying and she also put my name down as well earlier so that was not a nice thing

 yeah like I'm definitely really open to it like you you mean Sammy I think we can rope in some people I just want to be the right people and I don't want to feel I don't want to feel tied with having to go to like the final six with like me you Sammy Jack Theo Jim like all that like us three cool I'm happy I mean I like that, but I don't, like, I don't trust Jack. I don't feel, like, Dio doesn't talk to me. Jem doesn't talk much, like, anything game related. Like, a little bit just stuff in general, but there's so much time between responses and nothing game related where it's like I don't trust them. There other people I would feel more trust with like you know So even just from just chatting to them because like the other thing we talked about like you want to work with good people you want to work with people that you can, you know, build an actual, like, personal, not personal connection, but just like a connection on a human level, and there's people on the other side that are just doing a better job of that. So yeah, I just want to be careful about how we navigate the game, especially after voting Tully. I just like talking to Tully on a human level. Time zones allowed made it easy. But there's so many people that ignore me that it's like, I just want to keep some people around that will actually just chat to me. Because like, yeah, part of playing orgs is the social side and like I play these to get to know new people and if there's people who are just deliberately you know not giving me any time of day and not trying to get to know me it kind of sucks. That was an honest feeling as well so.

 think I spoke way too much. But, yeah, I mean, feel free to listen to these. I thought I'd show you the respect and voice them as well because, you know, you voiced and chatted to me and hopefully you can... Yeah, we'll be able to get past this. Definitely think that. Very appreciative of your apology. Like I said, no-one's done that before. Yeah, looking forward to seeing what this game can... can do for us moving forward. I just, yeah, I'll leave it there. But yeah, we can keep chatting for sure.

 really appreciate your honesty, Ryan. Thank you. I wish I could say the accent was, you know, I was trying real hard, but that's just the way I sound. I love your accent too, man. That Australian accent is something, though. I'm pissed at how y'all treated our players today in the game, but neither here nor there. We can get into that later. Yeah, y'all played dirty, but anyway, I won't start that. Yeah, listen, I hear you completely about Jack. If it makes you feel any better, Jam and Theo are real pissed at him too because he was all over the place, man. I had to beg him to vote Ricky. I was like, listen, I know you don't trust Theo, but I'm begging you. We have a shot right now at Ricky, and I need you to trust me on this one. Just trust me. And in the end, he did, but it was touch and go for a while there.

, you know, here's what I'm thinking. I completely get where you're coming from. You know, I'm not going to ask you to like, you know, bow down and be loyal to me with this with this alliance of six or anything like that, because that's far from what I want. But I guess what I want, though, is, I mean, of course we could do this me, you, Sammy thing all the way. I love y'all, truly. Y'all are great people. I love talking to you. And I feel you about that, man, because that's kind of the main reason I want to get rid of Star and a few of them others. I like Bree, but I just don't trust her. I don't trust Void. He was trying to mess with my head. I don't trust Fuggs. I like him, but so many people, they just try to mess with my head, and I just don't want to work with them. So I guess what I want to ask you is, would you be willing to overlook Jack and Jim and Theo for just a couple of rounds? I ain't saying I want to blindside them after that, but I am saying I'm open to anything once I just feel a little more secure in this game because right now it feels like it's everybody against me, Sammy, and Jack. And to tell you the truth, yeah, I don't necessarily want to be stuck with Jack. I mean, look, I won't turn on him. I'll tell you the truth. I don't think I could ever turn on Jack, but I don't want to be stuck with him. And the only way I'm not stuck with him is if I get rid of these other people first, like Fuggles and Star and Bree, these people that are just never going to, you know, ever going to consider, or Bethany even. Bethany, she ain't never going to consider voting with me.

 also just Marissa, I don't trust her. You know, this is the second vote in a row now that she's just completely left me a hole in the bag. And this time it worked out, but it worked out in spite of her. It didn't work out because of her. You know, she, I don't trust her at all. So there's a lot of people here I'd like to see go, to be honest with you, Ryan. We can talk more at game when I make this alliance chat tomorrow for sure. but yeah I'm really glad we kind of squashed the beef and we're just being transparent with each other I don't know what it was I had it in my head that you were like double crossing me or something man last couple of those were just so messed up I want to move past them and if you're willing to do that you better believe I'm willing to do it too man I appreciate your patience with me thank you

 only worry with Jack going this next vote is I have a hard time. Because, okay, if this alliance of six that I'm telling you about is true, this Bethany, Fuggles, Starr, Brie, Void, and who else? Marissa? I think that's six, right? Did I just count six? What was I counting? Hold on a minute. I got this pulled up on a document. Yeah, Brie Fuggle, Star of Void, Bethany Marissa. If that alliance of six holds true, then vote Jack out. I mean, it just puts us on the back foot. You know what I mean? It leaves us completely vulnerable because, to be honest, I don't know if I could flip any one of them. They seem pretty tight, you ask me.

, you know, we're kind of, unfortunately, I feel like we're kind of stuck with Jack. I mean, at least I am. And I don't plan on turning on him just because he ain't really let me down yet. You know, he's let other people down and I can totally understand that. I won't hold it against you. You know, it is what it is with Jack and all, but he ain't let me down. And I just, I'm not the type to turn on people, you know, and it's not, that's not, I didn't sell Theo out. I'm not going to sell Jack out. I'm not going to sell people out who helped me. But, you know, time comes, you know, my loyalty is going to fall with you because, you know, you've been so upfront with me. You've been very transparent, very emotionally vulnerable with me, which, you know, as an aspiring firefighter, you know, I appreciate that sense of brotherhood. I really value that.

 anyway, I'm not going to talk your ear off again. I just wanted you to hear my voice so you'd know that I mean what I'm saying. Yeah, I've got to go to sleep soon, but I already requested the Alliance. I think they'll probably get around to it when I wake up. I don't know what time that'll be on your end. But yeah, expect it in the next 10 hours or so. I'm looking forward to it, Ryan. I feel like this game might just be opening up to us, just maybe a little bit. I don't know, for a minute there, it was touch and go. But I'm hoping it steers into the right course, the right direction. All right. Appreciate you. Good time, buddy.
