Why did you risk your alliance by voting Matty, when Bob and Corinne's votes would have been enough to get him out even if Corinne had the idol?

If you could have taken some pro smashers with you on the show, who would it be? Who do you think would do the best?

Do you think your character Choice of Marth had an impact on how you played Survivor?

Do you still have contact with people from game? Have you made any new lasting friendships from it?

Why did you make such a big deal out of yours and Bob's "deal"? Everyone loves Bob, so it wouldn't really make him look like that bad of a guy.



Also, how much money did you win?

There were video games on that Ponderosa. Was there Smash? If not, did you play any of the other games, and what were they?

-Which was the easiest challenge for you on Suvivor?
-Which was the hardest challenge for you on Survivor?

Might have already been asked though. Whatever.

strategically you grew alot throughout the game and ended up doing things in my opinion made this the best survivror ever, and ive been a long time fan. What was it like around camp when you got susie to flop to take down the once big alliance, and see the smiles on Randy and Corinne go away? And what was the mood when the other alliance that thought they were so dominant, started to get widdled down by you?

P.S. good job :)

I'm sure this has been ask before, but I'm extremely curious to hear who you're still in touch with since survivor had ended.

You also should have said "no johns" at the very least, but the reference to mindgames was great.

Also, how many times have you applied to Survivor before this season? What was it like for you to realize that you were going to be on survivor? What did you expect to place? Did you think you were actually going to win from the start?

Where you upset with Bob and his immunity promise because he didn't hold his word like he said he would? Or was it because you wanted the Idol?

No offense but:
In many people's minds, what you said at the TC where you got voted off ended up sounding very illogical, silly and stupid (such as bob sacrificing his life for you). Did you mean everything that you said or did you like... mess up?


Why did you vote for Suzie? (and/or why didn't you vote for Sugar or Bob?)
What did you judge the finalists by? (honesty/keeping promises in the game, strategy, ability to answer your questions at final TC...)


Is Corrine still unemployed?


Did you call Charlie a *** and/or homosexual? If so, what did you mean by it/what where your intents? (did you mean to make fun of him? or where you just remarking that he is probably homosexual?)


Do you have any personal contact with Sugar and/or Bob as of now?


Have you ever met a bigger scrub then Marcus?


What exactly was your plan in voting Matty the night that Corrine went? Since Matty would've gone from Bob's and Corrine's votes anyway, I feel that there is something I am missing.
Big questions there. I'd love to hear the answers.

Was Matty still pissed off at you up until the time you were voted out?

If there was a Super Smash Brothers version of Survivor, which character do you think would win??
Captain Falcon.

He would win every challenge, be allied with everybody and would give the million to nintendo so that he gets buffed in the next smash.

The idea was that if Ken voted for Corrine as well, then Bob and Corrine wouldn't trust Ken and Crystal if she really did have the idol.

Ken and Crystal preferred to have Corrine eliminated (if she was lying, which she was) over Matty being eliminated. If they listened to Corrine and Bob, then it would have been 4 votes Matty, 3 votes Corrine. By having only Ken vote for Matty and Crystal vote for Corrine, it was 3 votes Matty, 4 votes Corrine. By doing this, they guaranteed that either 1. Corrine was telling the truth, she would play the idol, Matty would be out, and Ken and Crystal could still go with Bob and Corrine because Ken voted with them.
or 2. Corrine was lying, in which case they wanted her out, not Matty. This is what had happened, but Matty wouldn't listen to Ken when he tried to explain that he had no other (logical) option.

i do not understand the fuss about corinne's possible idol when ken's own ally had a real idol...for SURE. :\

i also cannot see why ken would even fathom aligning with bob and corinne, because he would be in a worse f3 spot than if he were to stick with the original sugar/crystal/ken plan.

Did Bob's response to your question affect your vote? are you still bitter about him not upholding his deal in your eye?

makes sorta sense....but still, if he voted corinne and she had a real idol and played it, matty would be out, and the idol would be GONE. therefore, it doesn't matter if they trust ken or not. corinne would be out next tribal.
i think ken really screwed up on that episode....:(

Do you believe that your professional gamer background actually helped when it came to playing the game? And do you think your experiences from Survivor will impact your career as a professional gamer, in your gaming and in the real world?

Probably asked already, but:

Was the game more of a physical challenge, or a challenge that dealt more with the statement "Mind over matter"? What are your feelings towards gaming to this day and why or why not will you continue?

1) Do you think you could have won a Jury vs Matty with Sugar or Susie as the third wheel?

2) Concurring with one of the earlier questions, what do you think were the most drastic or misleading edits when the show went to air?

3) What's the payout for 5th? If you can't answer specifically, could you give an over-under of 0-50k-100k?

4) What strategy did you work out with your sister when she visited?

Not sure if this has been asked yet, but what did you do with the $600 you saved from the Survivor Auction? If you haven't spent it, what do you plan to do with the money?

"What SPECIFICALLY do you think were bad moves on your part? In smash you get 'punished' for your mistakes. What mistakes did you get 'punished' for and what mistakes DIDN'T you get punished for?"

"Do you really not forgive Bob?"

"How has survivor impacted your gaming career? Do you think it's changed it?"

These, and similarly to the first; do you have any advice for potential future survivor players?
