Here's how my process will work: first off, eliminate the premerge game altogether. In my eyes, the premerge is the regular season, and it leads up to the real deal; the postmerge. So automatically, the 6 people who never participated in a merge vote are already ruled out: Nicole, Ryan S, Michelle, Trish, Shawn, and Osten. For each round of the merge, I'm going to give a point to half of the castaways (for odd numbers I will round down, for example, I'll give 4 people points out of the final 9) I will continue this through the final 2. Whoever has the most points will be survivornerd's Player of the Season!
FINAL 10
Only five people voted correctly without receiving votes: Sandra, Lillian, Burton, Christa, and Rupert gain a point.
FINAL 9
Ryan O. and Christa are ruled out for receiving votes. Rupert gains a point for winning immunity. Burton gains a point as well for being picked to go on reward without actually winning, and also for having people come to strategize with him. The last 2 points go to Tijuana and Darrah, for having several people wanting to align with them.
FINAL 8
Rupert, Christa, and Sandra are ruled out for voting incorrectly. Lillian, Burton, and Tijuana gain a point for voting correctly and not receiving a vote. Jon gains the last point for convincing Lillian to turn on Rupert, and for getting handed a reward without actually winning.
FINAL 7
Tijuana, Darrah, and Burton are ruled out for either voting incorrectly or getting voted for. Sandra gets a point for getting Tijuana to listen to Jon and Burton talk strategy late at night. Jon gets a point for the grandmother lie. Lillian gets the last point over Christa for performing better in the challenge and for not getting blamed for the dumped out fish.
FINAL 6
Sandra, Christa, and Lillian are ruled out for either voting incorrectly or receiving votes. Therefore, Jon, Darrah, and Burton all receive a point.
FINAL 5
Sandra and Darrah were the only two to vote correctly and not receive a vote, so they gain a point.
FINAL 4
Jon and Sandra were the only two to vote correctly and not receive a vote, so they gain a point.
FINAL 3
Scoutmaster Lil gets a point for winning the immunity challenge and ousting Jonny Fairplay.
FINAL 2
Sandra gets a point for getting more jury votes.
NOW, for the rankings...
