Firstly, congrats ladies. I think you both did excellent jobs making it to the end, and I have no hard feelings towards either of you. I'm gonna keep this really simple, and for my question I would like you to pick one aspect of the jurors and your opponent's games that you thought was better than your own, and one aspect that you thought was worse. I mean for the worse part you don't really have to answer the jurors so much since we obviously didn't play as well a game, but I guess answer it if you want. Anyways, good luck to both you

Hey Angie! Thank you very much and I'm glad there's no hard feelings! Ok so the aspects of Sabrina's game which was better than mine was her ability to win challenges! She was amazing in challenges and that's ultimately what has got her to this point now. The aspect of her game which I feel wasn't as good as mine was her social game. I do feel I had a much better social game than she did even with my time difference. That's the impression I got from speaking to other people about Sabrina too, I know other people do agree with me regarding her social game. I'm not claiming to be a social butterfly or anything but I feel mine was a lot better than hers. For Kaitlin I would say her ability of making good, solid relationships with people. I think a lot of people trusted Kaitlin in this game which ultimately got her as far as it did. The aspect of Kenny's game I feel was better than mine was his ability to take things on the chin and it not affect him in the game. He was nominated a lot yet never seemed phased, he had a very laid back attitude to the game whilst being completely in tune with everything that was going on and was still very strategic. Sometimes I wish I hadn't got as wound up about certain things in the game so I could have taken a leaf out of Kenny's book there. Cody and Keesha; comp beasts! Ultimately that it was got them evicted because they were perceived as such huge threats in this game because of their ability to win so many challenges. However, both had to win challenges and times to save themselves otherwise they would have been evicted sooner potentially. Winning a challenge was not something I could do so that aspect of their game was a million times better than mine. For Alex I'd say loyalty because he proved himself to be very loyal by sacrificing himself for Cody. I on the other hand turned on my initial alliance so I'd say loyalty was the aspect of Alex's game which was better than mine. As for Roddy I'd definitely say confidence in his own abilities. When he was nominated by Jee he said that he WOULD win veto and take himself down and then he would win HoH the following week and he did exactly that. He had the confidence in his own ability and he pulled through on that. Due to my poor performances in challenges I went into future challenges with a "I'm gonna lose" attitude which ultimately could have affected my performance in the challenge. Finally Angie, I feel like your overall game was better than mine but that you go very unlucky. You were able to win challenges, had a good social game and was very strategic as well as very loyal. I couldn't win a challenge and was proven to not be as loyal so I'd say they were 2 aspects of your game which were better than mine.

HI SORRY I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DO THESE UNTIL NOW SORRY FOR MAKING YOU WAIT Angie- From you, I think it would be the ability to have power but still lay low. Now obviously this sounds contradictory because you got evicted for winning HND but that was just shit luck on your part. You still managed to be a huge threat extremely early in the game yet not be targeted at all because of your social skills. On the DOWNSIDE, I think you were bad at covering your tracks when everything hit the fan. Roddy- Roddy was extremely good at dedicating himself to this competition and planning ahead. Roddy's downfall HOWEVER was people got turned off by him (idk why) and he didn't have many alliances outside myself and Keesha so he got evicted because of it. Alex- Alex was extremely good at gathering information. He was my go to source if I wanted to find out the details on anything because he always found a way to find it (I mean I know how he did but still). On the other hand he was bad at shutting his mouth since it got him evicted (but that was a success in his eyes so hooray??!!) Keesha- Willpower and strength, overall Keesha was a much stronger competition who deserves to be sitting here. Her reason (which is similar to Cody's spoiler alert) was bad at controlling the target on her back until it was too late Cody- Extreme charisma. I mean lets be honest if Cody made it to the end he would have 100% won the whole damn thing. Everyone loved him because he was so charming. One thing I think I did better was conceal how much of a threat I was. Everyone was either "GET CODY OUT" or "GET KEESHA OUT" until it was too late to get Sabrina out Kenny- Social skills. Many people liked Kenny which was why he was such a threat to win. Downfall would be yes, challenge skills, since I don't think Kenny lacked much else because of how laid back he was you never saw many people gunning for Kenny (except me lol) Kaitlin- Overall strategy. Kaitlin was good at controlling the game, one thing she was bad at was relationship management since she was extremely polarizing, either you loved her or hated her and sometimes that line needs to be blurred. And finally Topaz I mean I feel like I have been rough on Topaz because I do think she played a decent game. Her best trait was just staying out of the line of fire which is one thing I DEFINITELY need to work on. Worse though, is of course her ability to get power in her own hands and control her own destiny.
