You're one of a handful being interviewed, but if asked to return as a Hero for SurVs 8: Heroes vs Villains...would you accept the offer? (as ...)
If I'm asked to return as a hero... absolutely I'll come back.

What would you say made you stick out the most in your original season? In Fans vs Favorites (if you were in it-if not, ignore the FvF part)?
What made me stick out in my original season is the fact that I was the last remaining member of my tribe coming into the merge after Jerri Manthey was voted out, and I 'still' didn't receive a vote until at least the final five, final four or so. I think I was a potential swing vote at a number of points.

Why do you think you're being considered for SurVs 8 as a hero and not a villain?
As for why I should come back as a hero... well I didn't really come across as cutthroat as everybody else. I played a more under-the-radar sort of game and that's still a decent strategy, especially considering the position I was in coming into the merge to begin with.

What mistake (if any) do you think you made last time?
The mistake I made however is that I didn't play aggressively enough.

Would you play any different this time around and if so, how?
I didn't do much to really deserve a win over Jessie and Brandon so this time I'll try to throw in some heavy strategy and good moves to constitute deserving a win while not sacrificing the way I played last time. Basically... I'm going to use the same strategy I would use if I get accepted for Surv23/24; keep my mouth shut and be the lapdog of whoever wants to be in charge before the merge and then make power moves COME the merge because I won't be seen as a threat until it is too late.

Who from any season would you like to see return and why?
I would definitely love to see either Jerri or Brandon come back for Heroes vs Villains because I got along with them remarkably well in my season. I think we could definitely pull something off if we were together again.

Who from any season would you NOT like to see return and why?
As for who I don't want to see coming back... Lex. Didn't like him then, probably won't like him now.

If not chosen, how would you react?
In the end it is your choice as to whether or not I am accepted to be in Heroes vs Villains. I know the fact that I withdrew from Season 3 didn't really reflect well but the fact is life got in the way and I needed to set my priorities straight. Now that my head is screwed onto my shoulders tighter I think I can handle an ORG after a time of well... not doing them. Hopefully I won't be as rusty as Colby Donaldson in the real HvV.
