"I was like ... oh shit." ... when I realized the twist, the nominations and how much time I had left to put something togehter =P
This is clearly not the result anyone wanted!
Sometimes life just gets too complicated. With my step-mother passing away I literally had no choice but to go home. I have no regrets, and feel terrible I even accepted a spot to play knowing I would have to be inactive for a bit. I'm glad I was able to be there for my family, even if it cost me my spot in the game.
Who knows ... if the nomination twist didn't happen maybe I would have stayed. But even after missing the first challenge due to my birthday and then all of this round, I couldn't campaign against Mikey and JT. They both deserved it way more than I did.
I only really had a few hours to scramble, due to the timing of when I got back from my hometown and after work and everything. I knew I would have had to have everyone online to work anything out. So, I saw this coming.
Again, I'm so sorry to the hosts. I really hope you don't think less of me or that I was a bad player =( The timing was just extremely poor for me this time around.
Best of luck to Mikey, hope he wins. JT is an amazing player, hope he does well. Alex/Lex/John, nothing but the best. Good job to Kenny for winning when he needed to, and I hope Sophie does well.
It was a blast while it lasted. Had things worked out differently back home I don't think I'd be here, but alas, that's life.
Thanks and good luck
