Well I guess Russell abused a few friendships that were mad at him (Jaison, Shambo) but it was a totally different game.

If you go to end with someone that everyone likes and absolutely no one likes you, you're gonna lose. Russell should've gone to the end with like...Ben Browning (:

Tbh it's basically this:

EHH, I wasn't really like Russell at all. I had really good relationships with people and then voted them off when they thought I wouldn't. I didn't talk crap on people and did not rub it in their face when I vote them off. I don't really see any similarity between the games. If I would of lost I'd cry bitter but it didn't change the fact that Ted was more well liked by the jury and because of that they viewed his game as better (which would mean in turn it was). With that being said, I would never play actual survivor like that.

I don't think I meant you played like Russell, but you burned so many people. Russell burned a lot of those people, but not necessarily why they were better.

I more meant if you did play like that, you would probably say it was a bitter Jury as well. When you are in that position, it changes your mindset.

some1 show me the survivor rule book on how to be a good juror

oh right there isn't one. the game is constructed by the players so they can vote however they want. that is all

That doesn't mean bitter juries don't exist haha

No one here is arguing that there is no such thing as bitter juries. We're just arguing that it's not a PROBLEM. If a juror is bitter at a finalist that's on the FINALIST for not treating the juror properly.

Agree. I also think it applies to making it to the end. Maybe she didn't follow the strategy many of you prefer but she got to the end and had the connections with the others to win. lol Heck, it's worked for me in the past. :x

Russell clearly should have won.

HE DRAGGED EVERYONE ELSE TO THE END!!! I know he played like a dick, but that doesn't change the fact that he dragged the others to the end with him.

Vernon's speaking more sense than half the people in this thread

If you go by Survivor's motto of Outwit, Outplay and Outlast, then its Russell 10 times out of 10

Most of the credit that Russell gets for his gameplay comes from his own confessional.

John didn't flip because of Russell, he flipped because Shambo promised him she'd flip back. Robhasapodcast mothafuckas. All Russell did was be a master easter egg hunter and beat Brett at the FIC. Shambo was going to flip regardless.

Not only did Russell deserve to lose to Natalie, he didn't play a great game in either Samoa or HvV.

Vernon of 2014.

I laughed way to hard at Easter egg hunter.

I can picture Russell dressed up like a bunny running at a kids party and stealing all the eggs for himself.

Before I present my counterargument, I'd like a good definition of the word "dragged."
