LJ asks the important questions as always.

Hiya. I want to first thank Kenny for an awesome ORG and taking the time to make this season great. Malcolm and Danielle, I want to congratulate both of you on making it to the final 2. No matter how obvious the outcome may seem, I want you both to still put everything you have into these answers because this game is not over yet. There isn't really anything specific I want to ask either of you two, but I do want to adress you both.


Danielle - I am the last person who can complain about the way you played this game because I was just as, if not more, inactive than you were this season. So congrats on getting to the end unlike myself. We never really talked much, except for like one time where we exchanged like 10 messages total. This is by no means your fault 100% because I could have just as easily initiated conversation with you down the road. Again, congrats on sitting where you are.




Malcolm - I think you played an amazing game. You were strong socially, strategically, and challenge wise. I want to adress something about one of our last conversations. I don't mean to sound bitter, because I'm not, I truly am happy that you made it the end, but one of our last times talking you mentioned you were going through a rough patch and you told me basically you were going to be a little inactive for a couple days and that you trusted my judgement. Maybe it wasn't your intent, but this made me drop my guard with you and every thought I had about trying to vote you out at that vote vanished because I just wasn't going to do that to you. And for you to go the very next day and vote me out kind of rubbed me the wrong way. Again, maybe this wasn't your intent and I don't think it was so I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt. I'm truly happy you made it to the end and I think it's a little obvious where my vote is going.


I still would like both of you to answer my following question: (don't judge my question btw) I want both of you to compare each juror to a Vampire Diaries or Originals character. If you have never seen the show, do some research. Here is the wiki for both shows Click me! The top 10 characters are from the Vampire diaries, and the bottom 10 are from The Originals.

No one is asking any "fun" questions, so here you go.

Thanks for the fun question. I will answer it tomorrow after work.

LJ <3 Happy to hear from dude, and it really means a lot to me that you’re proud of me making it here.

When I sent that to you, I was in a dark place. I had a bad RL breakdown and was just discouraged all together that I wasn’t meeting my potential. I felt like I was letting down everyone in my life because of my consistent failure to stay on top of school and health priorities. Things really hit their boiling point and I just let the stress of everything consume me. Giving you a heads up that I was going through a hard time, was my way of trying to reach out. You were the only person left in the game I felt comfortable bringing that up with and it was important to me that I communicated my status to someone anonymously. There was honestly no ulterior motive in my action there.

At that point in time of me telling you I trusted your judgement, I did intend on wanting to go along with what you wanted to do. Once I got myself together though and wrapped my head around the game again, I realized that it would have been dumb to vote out anyone else because my influence over Fairplay and Danielle was stronger and I needed Sean to be there for Fairplay to target. You fought me hard on that Final 6 vote and was very reluctant to switch your vote to Erik. I felt it would have been harder to successfully pitch my case to you to stay if my life depended on it at Final 4. I had to make the move and never look back.

I appreciate you giving me the benefit of the doubt.

I will come back to your (and Mike's) fun question right after I finish addressing the other jurors.

So apparently I fell asleep in the middle of answering your question and woke up at like 2:00 PM. Expect an answer today or very very late tonight.

Dammit FTC ends earlier than I thought. I'll try and do this on my lunch break.
