In my eyes, two things make a legend. 1. Being a great character and 2. Being a great player. So, I've decided to figure out who the biggest Survivor legend is by taking the two top confessional getters (ties broken by placement) and deciding who played better that episode, giving them a point. Whoever has the most points after I go through every season is the biggest Survivor legend.
Ep. 1
Jeff Varner v. Kimmi Kappenberg
While Jeff got a vote this episode, I don't know that he was really in any danger of leaving and Kimmi annoyed people already, so Jeff gets this point.
Ep. 2
Jerri Manthey v. Maralyn Hershey
Kel voted against Jerri, but I think Jerri was one of the main people painting the target on Kel's back, so I would give Jerri the point.
Ep. 3
Colby Donaldson v. Keith Famie
Keith got into confrontations this episode while Colby made bonds, so Colby gets this point.
Ep. 4
Tina Wesson v. Jerri Manthey
In this episode, Tina was able to bring Colby over to her and Keith to take Mitchell out while Jerri was on the wrong side of the vote, so Tina gets this point.
Ep. 5
Jerri Manthey v. Michael Skupin
Michael was on the right side of the vote while Jerri continued her confrontations, so Michael gets this point.
Ep. 6
Colby Donaldson v. Jerri Manthey
People continued to be annoyed by Jerri, so Colby gets this point.
