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
Ethan Zohn v. Tom Buchanan
Tom cast a vote against Clarence, who did not leave, so Ethan gets this point.
Ep. 2
Clarence Black v. Lindsey Richter
Clarence was in hot water over on his tribe and he received votes, so Lindsey gets this point.
Ep. 3
Kim Powers v. Lindsey Richter
Kim P. and Lindsey both helped knock Carl out, however, Lindsey would have gone if she lost trivia, so Kim P. gets this point.
Ep. 4
Frank Garrison v. Linda Spencer
Linda was voted out this episode, so Frank gets this point.
Ep. 5
Ethan Zohn v. Silas Gaither
Silas was voted out this episode, so Ethan gets this point.
Ep. 6
Ethan Zohn v. Lindsey Richter
Lindsey was voted out this episode, so Ethan gets this point.
Ep. 7
Frank Garrison v. Kelly Goldsmith
Both voted correctly, but I feel that Frank had a bigger target on his back this episode, so Kelly gets this point.
Ep. 8
Ethan Zohn v. Lex van den Berghe
Ethan won immunity while Lex was at Brandon's mercy this episode, so Ethan gets this point.
Ep. 9
Lex van den Berghe v. Tom Buchanan
Lex did win immunity this episode, but he also made his alliance consider leaving him due to his overplaying, so Tom gets this point.
Ep. 10
Lex van den Berghe v. Kim Powers
Lex won the challenge and voted against Frank, so he gets this point.
Ep. 11
Lex van den Berghe v. Tom Buchanan
Lex was in danger this episode, and Tom was in a position of power after winning the challenge and deciding between Lex and Kim P., so Tom gets this point.
Ep. 12
Ethan Zohn v. Lex van den Berghe
People thought about getting rid of Lex, and Lex tried to sway his alliance to vote Tom, but it didn't work, so Ethan gets this point.
Ep. 13
Ethan Zohn v. Lex van den Berghe
Ethan won the game this episode, so he gets the point.
