Hello Danny, and congratulations for both your gameplay and your endurance. This has truly been a long game. I actually had a birthday in the middle of the game, so I'm going to blame my advanced age for my lack of memory. I have a 2-part quesion and I'd like you to be really, really specific, because I'm having a hard time remembering. My question is this: What do you remember most about me in this game? Tell me something I did or said. What do you remember most about US in this game? Did we have a good conversation? Share a joke? Anything? Again, congratulations. Keep on singing

Congratz Danny, i know for sure you will make to the final 2 because you are so good at this. ;p
anyway, without wasting much time, my questions are:
We have been playing together since day 1, so do you consider me as your true ally or just another person to help you get through to the next round?
Next, what do you think about my decision in utilizing the wrath card which lead me to get booted?
please answer as honest as possible. no matter what the answers are, i've already made my mind on who to vote. ;p

Tell me something I did or said. What do you remember most about US in this game? Did we have a good conversation? Share a joke? Anything? Again, congratulations. Keep on singing Actually, throughout the course of this game, we were never on the same tribe until we reached the Final 5, where I already had an alliance with garrett and Dexter. I was pretty up-front with Cyber about me already having an alliance and how I was sticking to it and I'm sure she told you, too. I don't think there was much for us to talk about from that point on. As a matter of fact, we were never even on the same tier until we went down to 2 tribes. We never talked this game and the closest to interaction we had this game was when I moved Veronica up to the top tier to ensure you and Cyber could keep the majority and vote Warren down if you lost immunity, but I never communicated my reasons with any of you. I know never having talked to you in this game is a negative against me, but I guess cause it was so late in the game before we had any interaction and since we both already know each other from other games, we just didn't talk in this one.

Congratz Danny, i know for sure you will make to the final 2 because you are so good at this. ;p anyway, without wasting much time, my questions are: We have been playing together since day 1, so do you consider me as your true ally or just another person to help you get through to the next round? Next, what do you think about my decision in utilizing the wrath card which lead me to get booted? please answer as honest as possible. no matter what the answers are, i've already made my mind on who to vote. ;p At the beginning, I wasn't sure how far we'd be able to go together, but as the game went on, I started feeling more and more loyalty to you. We never had an alliance where we said "We'll go to this point in the game together", but it did feel like one of those unspoken alliances where we knew we'd go far together. The best I could have done was F3 with you. I had a F2 with Rod and I wasn't going to betray that, but I wanted to go as far with you as I possibly could without betraying an alliance. As for your decision to use the Wrath Card, I understood your logic behind it and very much appreciated the sentiment. In hindsight, I wish I had communicated more with you about the ties I had to other players in the game because at that point, the Wrath Card wasn't necessary. I did ask that you throw Dexter into the challenge rather than Rod, but that would have been for my own selfish reasons. I do understand why you chose Rod to go against Cyber and lily. He definitely had shown in the game that he'd put more effort into a challenge and have a better shot at beating them. So, I understood and respected your decision to use the Wrath Card even though it did cost me my two closest allies in the game.

Danny congrats on making the Final 2. Please tell me why I should vote for you to win. Hey Cyber, I think I should get your vote because while Dexter and I both laid low when it came to challenges, I never laid low strategically. In the beginning, I pretty much just made sure I was in the majority voting block, but did make strategic decisions across tiers and for the long-term. I moved Veronica up the first time I won a Move Up Event cause I identified Warren as a big threat to me and someone I probably wouldn't be teaming up with in this game, so I wanted to make sure you and lilytiger could vote him down to Tier 3, putting him that much closer to being out of the game. I never communicated that in case Warren survived. I didn't want anyone to know I was out to get him so early in the game. I moved entropy up to my tribe another time cause he was someone I was fairly certain didn't have ties to many, if any people in the game and figured I could get him in my corner in case I needed him later on. When I talked to him about it, he let me know that I was the first person that even bothered talking to him this game and so he was willing to help me out if I needed it. Along the course of the game, I picked up allies along the way. Dexter had told me he didn't care about the game and was waiting to get voted out. I asked him to help me out in the game and he told me he'd show up and vote where I told him to until I decided to vote him out. He told me he would get Veronica to do the same. I was on a tribe with garrett and we started established a bond there, as weak as it was. So, when we got down to 11 players and I expected the merge, I went in with ties to Rod, Panzer, garrett, Dexter, Veronica, and entropy. The only person I had an actual deal with out of those people was Rod, so I managed to do this without lying to anyone or double-dealing. The only time I had two conflicting deals with anyone was when Rod came back into the game. After he went out, I made a F2 deal with garrett. At the F2, an eliminated player got brought back, which meant that when Rod came back, I had 2 Final 2 deals. I don't think it could be labeled as my fault, though, cause how were we supposed to know that someone would come back in the game at the Final 4? In additional to my strategic game, I played a fairly honest game, too. If a player came to me about a vote and I was voting for them, I let them know. The round Veronica went, I told garrett I was voting for him. The round that you went, you came to me about the vote and I was honest with you. When Dexter won immunity at F4 and I could only vote for either of my two allies, I self-voted. I knew I wasn't going, but I couldn't vote for either of them. So, I should get your vote cause I played a strong strategic game and I did it while being honest.

Yang is imposing a 48 hour time limit effective immediately.
All remaining jurors have 48 hours to ask any questions they may want to or else they will miss their chance.
Danny and Dexter do not have to answer within this period however, but the jurors must post within that period. If no one else does then we will move to closing statements at that time.

Ok, No further questions may be asked. Dexter and Danny, you may go post your closing statements now. Jurors don't have to wait for these statements to vote if they do not wish to. You both have 24 hours to post your statements.
