It's also worth noting that the show has a slanted definition of an "all-star". It almost seems like all you have to do is get to the merge at least once, be the center of attention, and/or be classified as "favorable". Now given that cast is made of everyone who made the merge in ROTI, almost every fiinalist (minus Owen and Beth), and every screenhos (minus possibly Owen), you begin to quetion a few things about this season. I believe that this season was created as an excuse to once again exploit the screen hogs (you know, because thirteen episodes is just too much time without Duncan or Heather) and anger the fandom even more.

Also when you think about it, a lot of these didn't even do anything strategic in their original season(s) to classify them as either a "hero" or "villain". Duncan is just an anti-hero who never really did anything villainous. The most strategic thing he did was form the Boys Alliance in Island, and that was just to protect his friends. Gwen did virtually nothing aside from getting involved in dating.

The most deserving person in my opinion to be an all-star is Heather (even though she was only really strategic in Island). Alejandro and Scott are horrible villains. The only reason why either of them got around was due to a impossible set of mishaps that caused everyone to be handed to them on a silver platter. Scott especially, because his strategy in ROTI is the definition of an idiot plot.

The only person who doesn't seem to meet any of the criteria above is Sam. He was just thrown in to make us mad. I would've really liked someone like Brick or Dawn to be in his place. But nope, the writers will do just about anything to make me (and a lot of people) infuriated. And it clearly shows that he has no other purpose in the season. He was just there and was kicked off nice and early as if it was nothing.
