<br>Hmm. I don't watch the show, or haven't after the first couple of episodes- it is, as you concede, very contrived. However, I was under the impression that it's a winner-take-all "there can be only one" (insert Highlander theme) deal.<br><br>If that's the case, then voting off more capable members may make some sense. You'd want them around early while they were doing you or your team some good, but you'd certainly want to vote off the most competent before you had to compete with them directly.<br><br>So, yes, I assume Chris would get voted off early, and that is a compliment.<br>
