Hello again, guys! Congratulations on making it to the final three! Getting to this point is quite an accomplishment, and you should each be proud that you made it this far. Brett, since this is your "first" ORG, I do hope you are ready for the multi-faceted endurance challenge known as final tribal council. These things can get pretty lengthy and challenging.

Franny: Congratulations on making it to the end, girl! I am extremely impressed with the way that you played this game. I initially wrote you off as a game-bot who was difficult to talk to, but as we got further along in the game, I found it easier and easier to socialize with you. Your story arc in this game is remarkable. Starting as the replacement for Kelley, and then finding yourself in a seemingly disastrous situation in the early merge. When you and Ciera were the only 2 original Chonos members remaining, I don't think anyone would have realistically expected one of you to be sitting at the final tribal council. You had to win some very pivotal challenges in this game, and you were able to work your way into alliances when necessary. Overall, I respect you, and I respect your game. I also respect how you treated me on the day I was voted out. I had a gut feeling that I was going to be eliminated that day, and you, unlike many others, did not ignore me during that day. Thank God someone here has jury management skills! On the day I was voted out, were you subtly hinting to me that I was going to be eliminated? I would love to get some more insight on what our relationship in this game was all about, because I can't fully tell whether we were fake to each other, or if we really had gained a decent relationship towards the end of my run. Could you please enlighten me on your perception of our in-game relationship from Day 0 to my elimination? Lastly, I have heard a lot of sentiment on the jury suggesting that you were a cold, stoic, gamebot throughout the entirety of this season. This perception was not helped by your 16+ hour endurance challenge victory. I would like to give you a chance to show your real personality and emotions to the jury by asking what it would mean for you, personally, to win this game? After all you've put in to the past "39 Days," how would it feel to win?

To all three of you: I am trying to figure out the formula to make it to a final tribal council in an ORG, because I just can't seem to do it. Obviously, the three of you figured it out in this game, so I would love your help, and I am sure all the jurors would as well. I would like you to do juror report cards -- grade each of the jurors' games with a letter and/or number grade. Evaluate each of their physical, social, and strategic games in a few sentences, and offer your suggestions for how to improve their games, so that in the next ORG they play, they can make it to the final tribal council! Now that I'm thinking about it, I actually would like you to do this for the final three as well, including yourself. Please, be honest and constructively critical for your assessments. Don't BS.

Lastly, I believe that many series are defined, or a standard is set, by the victor of the first season. When you think of the soon-to-be cancelled American Idol, most people think of the original winner, Kelly Clarkson. The original Sole Survivor, Richard Hatch, is often named as the show's best winner across thirty seasons. I want each of you to explain to the jury why you are this season's Kelly Clarkson or Richard Hatch. What would make you an iconic, memorable first winner for what is sure to be a long-lasting ORG series? Why should we vote for you to be the original face of 39 Days in Mongolia? What makes you and your game so special that you should be the winner? No more than a paragraph, please.

To be added: What standard are we setting by naming you the winner?

Brett & Chelsea: Ultimately, I look at the two of you as one entity. In my opinion, your games were severely lacking on many levels. At one point, and I don't know how true this is, another contestant said that it would be terrible if you two were in the finale, out of respect for the game. Regardless of how you played, you did get here, and I give you kudos for that. However, that does not mean that I respect or appreciate the game you played in order to get here. I have two questions for both of you to answer. First of all, can you explain your jury management strategies to me? Because I felt pretty dissed the day that I was voted off. I was hoping to try and chat with the two of you about the vote. I was interested in seeing if there was anyway that we could take out Franny that round. However, after some initial non-game chatter, both of you essentially gave me the middle finger and refused to talk to me any more. Chelsea, I even asked you about the vote directly, stating that I was (correctly) nervous that I was the target. You then deflected my concerns onto yourself ("I'm worried it could be me"), and proceeded to not talk about the vote. Furthermore, the two of you didn't respond to my messages on AIM until the minute after votes were due. Both of you suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and were willing to talk to me again. Brett, you even sent a message stating "talk to you soon," as if I was going to survive the vote. I already knew at that point that I was going home, but I personally did not appreciate being ignored and treated like a non-entity during that tribal council. Do you think you could have improved your jury management? Why did you both essentially ignore me the day I was voted off? Franny, Ciera, and John all knew I was going home, yet they continued to have active conversations with me, thus showing that they desired my jury vote.

In addition, I would like the two of you (Brett and Chelsea) to explain to me what you think happened during the top seven tribal council that resulted in a three-way tie, and Matty's elimination. I know that Franny is aware of exactly what happened, so I don't need to ask her. What was the voting plan supposed to be that night, and what happened to cause the three way tie? Who was supposed to leave that round? Who was supposed to vote for whom? I want to see if you really had sources of information in this game, and I would be impressed to see if you knew what was happening during that crazy tribal council! In order to prevent either of you from copying the other in some way, I would like you to PM me your interpretation of this event. I will then post both in the thread at the same time for the hosts, jurors, and other guests to read.
