P.S. Yes, this is an aside.
I've really enjoyed the strategic component of the game - strategizing how to win. I also enjoy seeing the interaction between people and how different personalities compete to try to win.

Yeah, the screw-over part is unfortunate and it does happen, however I do benefit from that by being put on guard to what people may do to me in real life, and then seeing how to counter-act it. There are sometimes some very honorable cast members who successfully win over the dishonorable cast members, and it's interesting to see how they do it. I've been inspired by some of those people.
