Hey Michael,
Good to see you again and thanks for your questions!

1. tell me y you should win over your opponents
I think I should win because I came into this game not really knowing a ton of you, I met a lot of you in Arabia but that was such a short time ago, I am still getting to know most of you...but anyway...i came in not knowing people and made it to the end. I had very loyal allies through the whole game and we always felt the underdog to Katie/Renny's powerful Idol Alliance, but we found ways to perservere and two of us ended up in the finals. Yes I did miss some challenges and votes, but I think we can all agree things were handled a bit inconsistently here...I asked several times for tribals to be posted so we would know when we had to vote by, etc. And sometimes it was done and sometimes it was not. I have never played like that and it threw me a lot. Sometimes challenges would take forever and sometimes they'd be over in what seemed like hours...not an excuse I just have not adjusted to that style of play.

2. tell me y you shouldnt win over your opponents
I shouldn't win against Katie or Liz because I was seemingly inconsistent. I did miss challenges and I did self vote and I know Katie never did. Katie was a great player and very social with who she wanted to be social with. Liz and I played a very similar game. I am not sure how much she was strategizing...even though it looked like I was "not playing" sometimes but I was always talking to allies and strategizing to figure out what moves to make to not only save me but keep my friends in tact. I am not sure how much of that Liz did but she did much better in challenges then me that's for sure so she deserves it.

3. Rank the jury of who should have been there in the finals not based on friendships of how well they played the game
1. Renny - Renny played the game very well, and I must say Renny was genuinely nice to me through the whole game. I really really like Renny and hope to play with her again because she's a great player and deserved it.
2. Softball - Another great warrior. She plays to the very end and is a force to be reckoned with, she would have won this game hands down had she been sitting here with Liz and I like we planned.
3. Wowi - Wowi and I have had our differences (see Arabia), but Wowi plays with a lot of heart and passion and is a great player.
4. Mookie - I think Mookie was a great ally and had a lot of great ideas.
5. Michael - Very hard player, and hard worker, should have made it farther.
6. James - My original F2 ally! He loves to play and is just fun to talk to even if he's stabbing you in the back.
7. Max - Didn't talk to Max as much this game but is a great player as witnessed in Arabia.
8/9. Brit/Eliza - i really didn't talk to either of you in this game and it seemed like you were strong with the Renny/Katie Idol Alliance so kudos to picking the right people to play with, unfortunately it made you guys targets.


4. finally what was your biggest move in the game and why?
It became very obvious that getting rid of Katie or Renny would be almost impossible with the idols. So I knew at some point we were going to have to force a tie. So throughout the game in councils when I knew she felt safe and that someone else was going I would quietly stack a vote on Renny, and it paid off. When it came down to that final vote, I knew that if Liz and I voted Renny she had more stacked votes than anyone. I knew that because I stacked almost all of them on her. This allowed both me and my F2 ally (liz) to get to the finals. I felt bad about doing it to Renny but I needed to set it up to ensure myself a shot at this.

Thanks Michael, I hope this helps with your decision.
