        <![CDATA[ There are two types of survivor players - Loyalists and Schemers. The struggle between them creates the most interesting moral conflicts on the show, because they have different ideas about what is fair or decent in the game. Seasons dominated by Loyalists play out very differently then those dominated by Schemers.

Loyalists must do some scheming, just as Schemers must feign loyalty.  Both types form alliances early in the game, vote out weak or obnoxious tribe members, and target the... ]]>

<br>
<br>
Ken - Clearly, he sees himself as a mastermind.
<br>
Crystal - She&#39;s more of a chief - every move is rationalized.
<br>
Susie - She looks like a follower, but she&#39;s most likely more of an opportunist.

Sugar - I think her tendency is to be a follower - her anger at Ace when she thought he was betraying her is typical - but she can be an opportunist at times

<br>
There have been things that Yul has followed on like following Becky's alliance plan, listening to others when it comes to Jonathon and Cowboy.  But in this game, a good leader is probably someone who isn't one hundred percent obvious about the fact  that they are leading.  They listen to the other people in the... ]]></description>

<br>
Parvati - She really talks a good game, but I don't know that she's cold enough to follow through as a Mastermind.  I don't think she wants control - she just wants on the good side of whoever is in control.<br>

Jenny - Perhaps she is an opportunist, but I'm just not feeling it.  She may not have loyalties to the Asians though since she may well have been an outsider among them.  I think her allegiance is to Rebecca as things stand.  Certainly her vote... ]]></description>

Parvati - Opportunist.  She's basically self-identified though I suppose she might drift when presented with actual choices.<br>

Nathan - Opportunist.  He hinted at scheming against J. P. before his boot (though that was rendered moot), and he certainly pushed Stephannie out the door.  Yet he hasn't taken control of the tribe (yet).<br>

<br>
Christy wasn't close with Matt much at all.  She may have been with Butch, but her closest relationship was with Deena.  Alliances of convenience don't indicate affinity in any case.  Most likely, she looked for a reason to vote for Matt against Jenna, but with everyone else ridiculing Matt, couldn't find one.  I have heard she didn't want to look like she was voting out of spite.<br>

But there is no way Alex gets Deena's vote over Jenna.<br>
<br>
Deena didn't like him. She posted her winner order of preference at one point. Rob and Jenna were top 2, while Alex ranked below Christy, Heidi, and Matt.<br>
<br>
Deena bonded with Rob and Jenna over being huge Survivor fans, and probably thought of Alex as the doofus who went gaga over Shawna while ignoring her. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Perhaps you are right, Craig, that Jenna was viewed as more of a bunny type.  That's possible, but it also shows that nobody was too worried about her (except Christy, of course).<br>
<br>
I wasn't really looking at whether a matchup was likely, but what would happen if it occurred under the most likely events leading to it.  I don't think it really counters my point that Jenna would have likely lost to Alex to suggest that she probably wouldn't ever have faced Alex.<br>

<br>
Dave said he would have voted for Jenna over Heidi.<br>
I really a Jenna\Heidi F2 in most likely if the cool kids alliance made F4 as planned. One of the girls would beat Alex in the Maze, and take him out as the bigger threat. Remember, Alex only hooked up with J\H after Shawna was booted.<br>

If one of the guys made F2, Rob wouldn't have the same respect as a master schemer.... ]]></description>

Jenna would not have fared as well if she had faced Alex for instance (such as if Rob had settled for fourth place).  A Heidi - Jenna matchup would have been interesting, but I actually think Jenna loses matchups with Deena, Rob, and Alex given the most likely game events leading to them (which may explain why so many wanted her in their F4).  In other words, part of the reason she succeeded was because she was made an... ]]></description>
