First off let me congratulate you both for making it this far, you have both prooved you are better players than us jury members just by sitting there on the Final 2 benches. And this is toughest part of all trying to answer the jury questions in a way that would make us vote for you but please just answer honestly cause honesty is very very important for me and my vote would go for the one who I feel was more honest. I'll make you guys two questions for both and one for each one individually. As we all know a huge part of survivor is the social skills, and sociall skills are all about talking to the other players and have something interesting to talk about to create an allianze, if not its useless... Therefor I'll like you both to answer me the following about other players real personas. First off how many daughters does Brooke has? Secondly what grade is Jim on at school? What is Billy's favourite football team? What nacionallity is Jamie's mother? What is Stephenie's real name? Who did Blake play in Survivor Battle of the Seasons? Who did Amy play in Guatemala Odvesims? What colour are my eyes? I also want you both to say what you feel was the biggest mistake of each of the jury members and why?Brooke I'm so proud of you making it here to the Final two, we all know you were the master mind around the whole game and perhaps the smartest player in the game, you were responsible of screwing over and backstabbing most of the jury members including myself, I don't hold grudges about it cause I know thats the nature of the game therefor I would like you to make a list of the jury members and who was hardest to vote/backstab and why...BJ I must admit that I'm really happy you actually are here, you had one of the roughest roads in the history of this game, you started in the bottom three and you were about to be eliminated but I helped you surge ahead and stay in the game so then what made you vote me out if I thought we were in great terms cause I helped you and you helped me back, what I want to know what made you vote me out and if our friendship was indeed real or it was just part of the game? (Please answer with honesty and without trying not to hurt my feelings)

Those are some pretty hardcore "persona" questions you asked there Morgan. I can honestly say that I don't know the answers to any one of 'em. It never crossed my mind to ask you what color your eyes were, or to find out from Blake who he played in "Survivor Battle of the Seasons". I could guess at these answers, but I don't think that's what you are looking for.
Here's my breakdown on what I feel the Jury members mistakes were:
Judd- He chose the extremely risky decision to jump ship during the mutiny without telling Jim or I (we were both in alliances with him). This proved to me that Billy was who he really planned to stick with. If he would have found a way to let me know that he was jumping over without it looking like he was flat out dropping us, things could have turned out much differently.
Rafe- Rafe went balls to the walls in the challenges. I don't think he ever held back in those things, so every one of us knew we had to boot him at our first chance. If he would have held back a little bit, he probably would have kept the target off of him for quite a while longer.
Morgan and Jamie- I think you and Jamie made the same mistake of not hiding the tight bond between the two of you. It was common knowledge that you guys would never even consider turning on one another...so it made going to the end with you impossible.
Brandon- He was fantastic at staying in the background through basically every round of the game. His mistake, I feel, was not taking the game into his own hands when he had the chance. I'm not sure what his overall plan was once we got the Final Five, because he was pretty vague with me about his intentions.
Jim- This guy had an alliance with everyone...and their mother. He is extremely good at hiding his true intentions, so I could not take what he ever told me at face value. I think he underestimated the pull I had going into the Final Five...and that is why he was in complete shock when Brandon was voted out instead of Brooke.
Cindy- Looking back on how Cindy played the game, I would say she really didn't make any major mistakes. Her and I both used Brooke as our "frontman" so the attention would not be on us...but if I had to choose one thing it would be her choice to vote out Brandon in the Final Five. If she had booted Brooke, she probably could have put herself into a better position to win the Final Immunity (by going up against two others who were not going to be as strong in the Challenge).
As far as the specific question towards me, the reason I voted you out was because you were very clear from early on in the game that you and Jamie were a pair. I could not afford to have both of you in the Final Five, because I knew that neither of you would ever vote against each other. The only chance I had was to stick with the Alliance of Five that I had become a part of early on, and make sure Cindy and Brooke would vote with me when it was time for me to make my move.
I really do feel you and I became friends during this game; and if there is one thing I will NOT do, it's let one affect the other. Basically, yes we did meet in "Guatemala", but the reason I consider you a friend has absolutely nothing to do with the game itself.

Thank you Morgan, it was a huge accomplishment to get here in the final two. I wouldn’t say I got here with backstabbed anyone but Billy. I was loyal to my allies to the end and that was Brandon, Bobby Jon, Cindy, and Jim. Everybody left this game as a result of the damage our alliance did. We always had the majority, especially with you and Jamie being the swing votes. I wouldn’t say that I was using you, that's how the game works. We tell you what you want to hear. It happened to me as well, but I survived. Ok so on with the answers….
Was this a social game to me, YES!!! If anyone was hanging out online it was me. I tried to talk to everyone that would take back. I mostly talked to Brandon a lot, so I don’t know much personal stuff about the ones I never spoke too.
I know that Jim is a senior in a school in Indiana, he got a new car for Christmas, and he loves the COLTS, that’s is no surprise.
I think Billy’s favorite football team is Pittsburgh? I know he loves the Arts and is into screen writing or something like that.
Jamie’s’ mother is Spanish decent, but I’m guessing.
I didn’t talk to Blake unless he messaged me and then I tried to avoid him. He was quit the pest in the game.
For Amy, dang that girl plays so many games; she probably played Amy again for all I know.
Here are reasons I feel the jury members made some mistakes
Judd – I approached Judd regarding an alliance. He didn’t want to make any rash decisions until we actually went to tribal council. That never happened, because we won. When we merged and Judd moved onto Nakum, he again made no effort to make any alliances with me instead he hung onto Billy, hoping he would get some back up from me. It was the mutiny jump that caused his early departure. It was just a matter of time and his was running out fast.
Rafe – At first Rafe wasn’t available, he always had his phone on and it made it hard to communicate with him. The first I heard of him was when he won first individual immunity. He went all out on that challenge. From that moment he had the target on his back for doing well in gingival challenges. Rafe also started using me for information and relating it back to Billy. What Rafes’ biggest mistake was, he was the one that gave me the idea to go after the next biggest threat and that was Billy.
Morgan – You biggest mistake was when Billy came to you demanding to know who orchestrated the whole plan to get him out. I know you came to me and told me everything, and that it wasn’t you that gave him my name, but that was when I didn’t trust you.
Jamie – your biggest mistake was when you actually told Billy that it was me that got the chat room together and uncharted the plan to get Billy out. Other then that, you just are too honest to play this game, and you were going to sacrifice your game to keep your ally Morgan.
Brandon – I never really saw much action from you. You never really shined in anything in the game. You acted like people were after you when they weren’t and in the mean time you hid behind Jim and me. The biggest mistake was to trust Jim over me. In time I soon realized you were more loyal to Jim and that is when I wised up. It was too late by then and my butt was on the line. You didn’t have the balls to tell me you were voting me, so in turn, what comes around goes around.
Jim – your first mistake was to tell Bobby Jon he was going to be the 5th person in our alliance. From that moment on, my bond with him became stronger and I trusted him most in our alliance. Your biggest mistake was to bring your revenge into your strategy and tell Brandon I screwed you over in another game. That was not a smart move on your part, that is when I put you 5th to go. Your last and final mistake was to come to me and tell me my days were numbered, when simply they weren’t. You came after me first; therefore I felt no remorse but to repay the favor. Now I know you couldn’t of been blindsided, because you had to know I was not going to bring you any further, for the fact you would of done anything to win. Oh and last but least, you never confided in me when you won the idol, had you known that, that was the true test of what alliance is all about. It was when you started thinking about just you and not us. .
Cindy – your mistake was to keep me over Brandon. I heard for weeks, that I was the first target of our final 5. I don’t know how you changed your mind, but that is what saved me in the game. I won’t say trusting Bobby Jon is a mistake, because it was him that you aligned with and that was the best move on your part, it’s what got us both far in the game. Other then that, I can’t think of one negative thing to say about you.
Ok Morgan, hope that answers your questions honestly. Thank you again for making this game fun.

Thanks again Morgan, questions have to be the hardest part of the game.
