"As the game went on, I started noticing the strength of a pre-established alliance of friends. An alliance that, many times, turned directly against me and contributed to me facing 5 nominations throughout the season."
Before this game started, the only person I had talked to in the last month was @cold, and even then it was only because we were in a Royale together.
The alliances that were created in the game were NOT pre-established, and definitely not a group of friends. Just people who created connections in the season and formed loyalty with each other.
You can be upset about feeling like you faced a lot due to the amount of times you hit the block this season, but @gabs, you faced many of these nominations because you put people in no position to feel comfortable working with or trusting you after you threw half of the cast's names out for nomination consistently. It was not because a group of friends all came into the game together with the intent to target you.
Good luck in the final poll, you did well - but don't lie.
