To ask Gabriel a question, please type it in the space below and click "Ask the Survivor." We'll get to as many of your questions as we can. Let's get started!!!

Hi Gabriel, thanks for being here to chat with us today.

Gabriel Cade: Thanks very much, it's very cool to be here.

Crazy_Canuck: I saw your audition video in which it was pretty clear that the love of competition was one of your main drives in coming on SURVIVOR. However, this appears to be in contradiction to your "let's see how living with 8 strangers" theory and "I am not playing the game" theory you stated on Thursday show. What was your agenda?
Gabriel Cade: SURVIVOR is a very different type of game than I've ever played before because the currency is people -- you're not just playing a hand of cards or a soccer game, you're voting people out of your life. That's a much harder kind of competition to put yourself in and for me it wasn't worth it. I love to win but I don't fear losing, it's a different kind of competitiveness.

survivor_fanatic: Would you had changed your strategy in the game if you were to play it again or would you still stick to your beliefs?
Gabriel Cade: I wouldn't change anything about what I did and I wouldn't change it if I had the opportunity to do it again.

Bleckie: I was just wondering if you ever thought about people playing SURVIVOR because they really need the money -- do you feel like you may have taken someone's chances away just because you wanted a sociological experiment?
Gabriel Cade: I really need the money! And everyone could use a million dollars but I think it was time for someone to go on SURVIVOR for the experience, not the prize.

s_man: Gabe, I wanted to see you go further. What did you think of the way John went against you? The two of you seemed tight.
Gabriel Cade: John and I were very good friends out there and will remain friends. All that happened was just sort of a meeting of different objectives. I was out there for the experience and John was out there for the game so I don't judge him for how he played because I don't expect to be judged for how I played.
