Presumably because it isn't really a team competition, it is about determining which member has won.

Survival of the fittest.

I can't wait 'til my team loses. I want to get rid of Edahn.

Yeah, that's what it looks like. It would be more fun if it were a team effort 'til the end. Everything's like Survivor these days.

I bet.

We could do that... The voting off thing was introduced after the original gauntlet concept was conceived.

Cool--could we rethink it, maybe?

I would very much like to rethink it.

There's just no point.

At one time I was for it, but it's negative reinforcement. Something I seldom agree with.

Plus, the more a team has to get rid of members, the worse they're going to do (that is, if all team members are contributing at least ideas, if not skills), which will just make them crash and burn.

It becomes less about competing with the other teams and more about self preservervation.
