SURVIVOR Host: There are lots of great questions, so let's get to as many as we can! If you're just joining us, we're chatting live with Survivor Penny Ramsey. Hi Penny! Thanks for spending some time to chat with us today. Are you ready for some questions?
Penny: I'm ready!

survivor_boy: Did you know at the time that you were being voted off? What's up with Jake's comments at Tribal Council?
Penny: Any time you go to Tribal Council you're never safe from being voted out while you're there. I think it's always in the back of your mind that you could be the next to go. The comments that you heard Jake make was Jake trying to save himself another three days on the island as well. When we were at Tribal Council previously, Chuay Gahn was saying that they vote out the people that aren't contributing around the camp. In Jake's mind, all the original Sook Jai members contributed around camp. And so, are they voting with tribal lines or are they truly voting out the people who aren't contributing? There's a few people on Chuay Gahn that do not contribute as much as everybody else.

Sk8erGirl: Jake never turned on you. Why did you turn on him?
Penny: I turned on Jake mainly because of the conversation I had with Clay. Clay had told me that in order to secure myself another three days on the island, I needed to vote out Jake, and that was about my last hope at that point.

CAJMB: Hi Penny, Is it weird watching the show after you're back, with all the edits & commentaries added? Do you feel your actions were accurately depicted through all the editing?
Penny: I feel that for the majority of the episodes I've been depicted accurately. However, I do feel that in the last episode she was in, Shii Ann made a lot of accusations about me that were never backed up with footage of the show. It was hard for me to sit and watch someone basically bashing my character. Those were false statements that Shii Ann was making about me. I believe in her chat with y'all she stated I worked harder, I played smarter and I was her biggest threat, but instead of saying that to the camera, she wanted to call me manipulative and conniving, and I think those are two different things.

ScottSisk: Penny, you had a big grin when Shii Ann was voted off. Did you dislike her that much?
Penny: I never disliked Shii Ann as much as other people did until she pulled what she did at the Chuay Gahn camp. She had me so worried about being the next person voted off the island that I couldn't have been more ecstatic when Jeff said that tribes hadn't merged! I truly feel she got what she deserved.

Honduras: Hi Penny, I'm from Honduras, You were great. What does your husband think about your participation in SURVIVOR: THAILAND?
Penny: My husband Matt couldn't be happier for me. Without his support I could not have had this experience.

ScottSisk: Penny, how do you like being married? Any children in the future?
Penny: [laughs] I think marriage is wonderful so far. It's been almost three months and we definitely want to have children in our future, but we want to have a little fun by ourselves first.

happy_girl: Do you think Helen is playing the game well? She seems to be one step ahead of the guys who think she is wrapped around their finger.
Penny: I think Helen is playing the game well. Last night, when we saw Helen and Jake go off to get water for the camp, I knew Jake was having a conversation with her about getting rid of one of the guys on Chuay Gahn. I think that was one of the last things he and I were holding out for. He really thought he made some headway with her. But as soon as Brian and Clay returned from their elephant trek, I saw Helen immediately run up to Clay and Brian right in front of me and say "Guys, I've got to talk to y'all about what Jake's been talking about y'all while you've been gone," so I knew the plan had backfired. That's when I knew I had to separate myself from Jake.
