1. Who is your closest ally? Do you plan to go to the end with them?
Putting me on the spot, aren't ya'! My closest ally is a tie, actually. It's between Sydney and Matt. I've been with both of them since the beginning. However, if I had to pick between the two of them, I would go with Matt. I know that Sydney has other options in this game who will be dead loyal to her, but I believe that is that person to me. I trust both Sydney and Matt the same but I trust Matt maybe just a tinge more in this game. I do want to be sitting in the end of the game with Matt, because we've been playing together since the start of the game.

2. Who would you say is the biggest overall threat remaining? Strategic? Social? Physical?
My greatest strategical threat? Well, let's see here. Sydney is very strategic, but I wouldn't really call her a threat to me yet. She will when it draws closer to the end because she will try and take out our allies that are closest to me. I actually think Stephanie could be my strategical threat at this stage of the game? Only reason I say that is because she is in a position to flip, rally troops from the almost destroyed Power Rangers and could do some damage to me. But that's a could .. not a would, even though she'd rather target Sekou than someone like Shawna next. Speaking of Shawna, Shawna is my biggest physical threat. She's great in competitions. Social threat? I'd give that one to Sydney over strategic.

3. Who do you want out next?
Shawna. Definitely Shawna. Shawna is someone I have never spoken to in this game and she's also been an opponent to me in this game in terms of alliances. In addition to that? She's great at competitions and obviously can win if she really needs to. For those reasons, it's very smart for me personally, to try and take her out of this game. She's more of a liability to keep around than a help, and I would rather not risk anything with keeping her around. If I have the opportunity to take her out, then I'm going for it. If she's vulnerable at any time, she's my target. IfShawna wins Immunity, then I will gun for Semhar. Semhar would be my target hands down after Shawna, but that's kind of personal. If I wanted to maybe go the strategic route, I could take out someone like Savage who I have no direct ties with and that would weaken Stephanie's game.

4. What's your strategy from here on out? How do you plan on making it to the finals?
My strategy from here on out is to start thinking about the end. Who do I want with me in the end of this game? I know that I want Matt there. Matt is someone I have come to trust so much in this game and I would like to battle it out with him in the end. I think that if I want to make it to the end of this game, I need to start finding ways to take out my allies' allies. That would mean taking out Mick or Tom to weaken Sydney, taking out Savage to weaken Stephanie, etc. I need to cut off my allies' resources so that they'll still always keep me at the top of their list and still have to depend on me .. instead of getting ideas and trying to brand out elsewhere. I think that Shawna and Semhar should go, and then I'll use Stephanie and her relationships to maybe target Sydney's resources.

5. Which cast members do you think deserves to make All Stars? Why?
Sydney, Shawna, Matt, Sandra, and Chase. I honestly think these are some of the few people who really tried hard to played this game. Sydney has alot of allies in this game already and she's in a good position, much like me. Both she and I have good social games, we're in the loop on alot of what is going on, and we're glue; she and I are what keep this big alliance together. Shawna is clearly dedicated to the game, she's given it her all in competitions, and she's never given up regardless of the obstacles she's had to face. Matt has been a big player in our alliance, he's helped set up many of the plans such as making the Salchicha alliance on Day 1 and he's been apart of many decisions. Sandra is the crazy outspoken bitch that every All Stars needs to have. She will go off on you in a heartbeat and she's shown that she's not afraid of confrontation in this game with the other side. Chase has been seen as the head and the glue that has kept the Power Rangers together. He's been a force in the game, and I think that if not All Stars for him, atleast FvF. Honorable mentions: Stephanie and Semhar.
