b) she would have been an easy one to get people to gang up with you to vote out because of how strong she is down the road. I think Jay played the backstabbing card too early. Now you have 5 people that know you're not trust-worthy and you got rid of somebody that would've been an easy out later on.

She was never going to be able to manipulate the masses. She was too conniving and controlling- too big a personality. Her ego gets in her way. The opposite effect is why David is still in this. You can't try to control the game like that. And for these reasons it was a bad move. Now the merge is going to happen and it's a whole new ball game and frankly, Brett is a really strong player too- you could have got him out.

The fact Brett is a cop and can read people, their tells, if they're lying, etc. plus he doesn't really annoy anyone other than raise suspisions due to lying... I dunno. He is a dark horse here and I'm pumped about my pick!
If you play a good social game though you WANT to go to Tribal, you don't want to win challenges.

Guys like Tony, Russell, Parvati, they all showed you want to go to Tribal in order to make the big moves in order to shape your chances as best you can.
