Voting Confessionals
"akaleno"

- Mikey, the last remaining Esjan aside from me.

If only that meant something.

Esjan was a tribe of 2 vs. 1 vs. 1. I would have been the next one gone had the tribes not been switched. You didn't have my back then, and I've never been able to trust you since then. I've had bigger fish to fry until now, but this merge vote is too important to let a great competitor like you slip by. Here's hoping everything goes to plan. This same vote in Sardinia was where everything went wrong for me. Not again. Sorry, friend!

"akaleno"

- I'm hoping you don't have the idol. You don't have the idol most likely.

You're just a threat, and I need to gain some trust with others. Goodbye. Have fun with Perry and Ted on jury!

"akaleno"

- Mikey, You aren't a threat but it's either you or me, so I vote for you AND use the Dark Pearl on you.

"akaleno"

- Sorry Mikey, No one wants to take a third New Súlur member in a row so you are the easy vote in this situation

"akaleno"

- Mikey, I wish we could have gotten together in this game, we worked so well together in Marathon xD but the sad part is, you're an Askja, and a lot of people have been trying to work with the Askjas lately. I need to vote you in order to protect myself, to make sure that no matter what, I'm on the right side of the numbers next time. Nothing personal, I just have to make sure I'm in a good spot tomorrow.

"akaleno"

- You have to go for one reason. Eden being here keeps the target from Trace and TJ on him plus whatever Askja strong plan you guys would've had is not gonna happen. IT WILL NOT BE AN IDIR REPEAT. #DEUCES

"akaleno"

- The last time you played you beat 14 castaways now you beat 15 so I hope that is enough for you.

"akaleno"

- I apologize for having to do this, but the longer I can keep my allies in the game, the better. Sucks to suck...

"akaleno"

- Mikey, oh Mikey. This isn't what I wanted to do. I'd love for Eden to be gone, but getting you out just makes a lot more sense for me right now. Trace will be upset. TJ might be upset too. But I've gotta do me guys, and Mikey, you keep doing you as you walk out of this game.

"akaleno"

- My vote is for Eden. Sorry man, but I hear you think me to be a huge threat and I can’t have you spreading that around. I’m going to take you out before you can cause any problems for me.

Final Words
"akaleno"

- Still thinking back on it, it doesn't feel real. Like, I honestly thought I could go farther than I did. Or that I wasn't gonna go out until a little bit later. This game can change in an instant.

I'm just glad I can play again. It was an amazing experience and I wish I didn't have any hard feelings for anyone left in the game, but we'll just has to see who is left at the end before the emotions come out.

I feel like I definitely proved myself I can play this game. I did way better than I did in Egypt. I felt like I was playing my own game and had a chance with the right people. I just hope a third time presents itself, but I'm perfect fine with what happened.
