Score the most points.

Score the most points.

How does a person win Survivor?

Score the most points (jury votes).

NOT who votes out the most people, or who wins the most immunities, or who find the most HII's, or who has the "best" strategy.

Why don't you just quit already? You have already admitted that Russell played the better game, so in this little tribal council I win ....your analogy is fucking ridiculous because you have to earn your way into the Super Bowl and the World Series..a team with a 1-15 record, or 62-100 would not have the opportunity to play for the championship. Natalie did nothing, and we all understand she was carried into the final 3...remember, Russell handfuckingpicked the top 3 pretty much from the beginning....so try again ..

Russell got screwed. He was the only thing that made this season watchable. To be down 4 tribe members to 8 at the merge and end up with 75% of them at the finall?!? C'mon. That's unheard of. He completely dominated that game in all aspects - including social. Survivor purists should be pissed. That vote made a laughingstock out of the game...

EDIT: Even Probst thinks Russell was the 'victim of a jury of bitter people.'

Yup, the article has already been posted...it is a joke..the jury should vote for the best player, which they clearly did not.....and I'm not sure Mick or Natalie even played the game at all....anyway, she is a nice enough person, but did nothing in terms of game play..

Well that site is run by his friends not Russell so maybe they knew already. Russell knew he didn't win too so who knows.

Exactly, and yet she was still awarded the money by the jealous and bitter jury even though she didn't do squat...good for her, but bad for the integrity of the game and embarrassing for Survivor purists and fans..glad you finally get it:

Merry Christmas

Her act of 'doing nothing, just getting by', was exactly what she did do. And it worked. She didn't need to do much more. And it got her a cool million.

If I could find a way to do nothing and get a million bucks, sign me up anyday.

If anyone can gain a million bucks by doing nothing, my hat is off to them.

I really am not interested in seeing Boston Rob again. He has been on Survivor twice and the Amazing Race twice. He's had enough opportunties to will a million.
