Ted wasn't playing us at F10 and F9. He wanted Asteria down two numbers. We'd have won F10 with or without Daniel. And since Ted's utmost loyalty did appear to be to me and Brian (since he had a deal to go further in the game with us than with Asteria), but his projected path to the end was too dangerous. Still, if you or Erin would have left at F8 as was being planned with us a part of it, since Ted was still loyal to Brian and I (but not necessarily all of Asteria since he was fine with you and Erin going that round) we'd have continued to make it through.
You conspired to vote Ted out at the very NEXT Tribal Council after Daniel was blindsided. Trusting Ted was a tactical error which I identified at the very beginning and you refused to see. Ted did what was best for Ted, and had he had better odds on Asteria, he would have stuck with Asteria.
You admitting that you were targeting me this early just dampens your strategic game even further. You had the entire merge to take me out if you really were against me. You didnt and you have no excuse. I did not have Immunity. Had you not been safe I would have ensured your elimination.

He did have a target on his back. From you. That's why we kept him in the first three rounds because it was guaranteed to keep you loyal to us since you'd still be targeting him. If you read my earlier statement, you'd realize that this was all intentional but you were blind to it because you were too determined to take him out.
You kept Asteria's best strategic player in the game for far longer than was necessary. You were scared of his Immunity Idol and I had to verbally bully both of you in order to vote him out when eventually was.
Your insistence on voting out Shawna and Joanna, you were playing safe. I was the one taking the risks and defying the odds.

You weren't carrying either of. Your argument for being safe at every TC is the equivalent of Katie Gallagher saying that she deserved to win Survivor: Palau because she wasn't targeted. She wasn't targeted because she was unnecessarily mean to people, much in the manner that you've been proud of "controlling" the pre-merge fighting between the tribes.
I should have been targeted, you've said so yourself. So why wasnt I? Had I had the opportunity you were gone, I had plenty of opportunities and you were lucky by winning Immunity. I never had Immunity, why didnt you vote me out if you knew I was such a threat?
