The perceived abandonment of my alliance at New Payang was not out of disloyalty, but part of it stemmed from the fact that everyone seemed pretty sure you had control of Solar enough to gain the numbers (which did happen). With that in mind, I was also nervous of being voted out because I was literally in the same exact situation with another ORG running at the same time. Everything running smoothly, my alliance split at swap, throwing 2 challenges where the first one we successfully voted out the opposing tribe but then the second one I was blindsided. It was way to similar for my comfort and I felt pretty confident in your control over Solar based on what others were saying. As a precaution, I tried to convince Nick to play his idol since he was the apparent target of the Miyangs. I felt bad that it was wasted, but knowing we would definitely have the numbers at merge and the tools to advance in the game, I wasn't terribly worried about Nick losing his idol. I was not trying to abandon the alliance, I had to take a risk and play a different hand in a situation that I had just gotten screwed over in the day before.
