1. I wanted it to be the revamped one because I feel like I put myself in a hole with my original series. Canonically, each season was 'aired' a year after the one before it (Bad writing on my part). I wanted the revamped series to be completely different than my original series and while I do enjoy going back and reading my old stuff, it's INCREDIBLY dated and badly written. Even Russia and HvV, which use the same format as Caracol, was poorly planned in terms of confessionals and writing. I wanted everyone to know that this is a brand new series.

2. If Jay's in the finals, he wins 9-0-0. No questions asked. Ming-Na and Kodi would get stomped on for bringing Jay to the end due to his overall control of the game and the moves he made. Jay would get a bit of heat for his overall arrogance but was viewed as the lesser of three evils.

3. Bethany would be someone I would like to bring back for a second chance season. Duke, Chrissy, Sally, Ming-Na, Chad, and Cassie would be characters I would love to bring back as well and you may even see some of them in a future season *hint hint*
