#349. Kathy Sleckman
(Survivor: Micronesia, 13th Place)



Kathy Sleckman is not someone who was ever a contender to win the game. She lucked into being where the immunity idol was in the beginning of episode one, and Yau Man had to tell her to pick it up. Then, when the fans arrived at their camp, she stuck out due to the way she talked to other fans. he made a comment about Tracy's breast implants,  and another about Chet's sexuality. While they didn't seem to mind, the other fans mentioned their concern with her. They even commented that she was lucky to have the idol, implying that as of the first ten minutes or so of the game, she was the only target. Soon enough, the two people she was arguably rude to became her closest friends. She had a tight group of three, but they were on the outside of a tribe of ten. They even slept in their own shelter. Fortuntately for the three of them, Mikey B was seen as too much of a strategic threat, and his ally Mary was targeted as a result. The next time they went to tribal council, Tracy convinced Joel to target Mikey, and Kathy and Chet lucked their way into the swap. Kathy was the only person in her group of three to be on the Airai tribe. With Eliza and Jonathan doing what they could to gain power over Parvati, Kathy could've put herself in a pretty good position. After surviving three trips to Exile Island, two tribal councils, and severe conditions that made the Survivor experience what she considered to be the hardest thing she had ever done, Kathy quit the game.


#348. Osten Taylor
(Survivor: Pearl Islands, 11th / 12th Place)

 

Unlike the last three, Osten was actually in a pretty good position before he quit. Andrew had made an alliance with himself, Osten, Tijuana, and Ryan O., and once Nicole was sent home, the four of them had control over the tribe. He seemed to be well liked by Andrew and Tijuana. Other than being disrespectful to three of the women in his tribe by telling them to flash older men when they were trying to get food and supplies to take with them to their island, which was a bad first thing to say when you meet someone, his social game was pretty good. Even in episode 2 when he talked about wanting to quit, his tribe mates tried to convince him to stay. This angered Lillian, who was adamant about getting rid of Osten because his heart wasn't in it. Osten stayed however, and no one would hear about him wanting to quit for a while. He slid through the next tribal council with no problem, as the two targets were Lill and Darrah. As soon as Morgan had to go to another tribal council, Osten brought up the idea of quitting again. This time, his tribe was unsuccessful in convincing him to stay. He finally quit, and unlike the other three, he actually could've gone a little while longer if he didn't.

#347. BB Anderson
(Survivor: Borneo, 15th Place)



It's not nice to speak ill of the dead, but BB's game was horrible all the way around. He didn't really stand out as horrible in the very beginning. He was shown joking around with Ramona and having conversations about his family with the other contestants. From there, his social game just took a wrong turn and never stopped. He annoyed the tribe by washing his shirt with their water, in their pot, without their permission, but the biggest thing that made BB clash with his tribe was his work ethic. He pointed out the hard workers to be himself, Gretchen, Greg, and Jenna, and the three people with whom he had the biggest problems were Ramona, Joel, and Gervase. Ramona was sick, and BB still expected her to do work. Gervase mentioned that he criticized anyone who wasn't working as hard as he was, and Joel said that BB would say the sky was red just to disagree. Along with BB's disaster of a social game, his strategic game did not prove to be any better. He wanted to lose the second immunity challenge to vote someone out. His tribe turned down the idea, but they lost anyway. As it turned out, BB wanted to lose so that he could be voted out. He asked his tribe to vote him out, and they agreed.


#346. Gabriel Cade
(Survivor: Marquesas, 12th Place)


 Gabe was someone who flat out refused to play the strategic part of the game. He was just there for the experience. He was well liked by Pachal and Neleh, but seemed to be severely disliked by John. John's mistake in telling Rob that Gabe was going home in episode 5 could've opened Rob and his alliance up for a huge power move. The problem was that Gabe just wouldn't let them. There's really not much that can be said about that. He's not lower, because he didn't technically quit, and instead of asking to be voted out at his very first tribal council with BB, he just allowed himself to be voted out. Plus, his social game was better than BB's, due to the bond he had with Paschal, and the fact that he seemed to fit in pretty well with his tribe for a while.


#345. Chet Welch
(Survivor: Micronesia, 14th Place)



I was actually impressed that Chet lasted as long in the game as he did. It was a combination of luck and being attached to the right person, being Tracy. Due to his poor social skills within his tribe and his weakness in physical challenges, he was always a target to be sent home. At the first tribal council, Mikey had a pretty good plan to ensure that either Chet or Tracy would be sent home. Chet got lucky that Joel saw Mikey's plan as unnecessary, and viewed Mikey as a strategic threat as a result. This got Chet through his first tribal council. The next time, Chet was saved by Tracy, who convinced Joel that she, Kathy, and Chet were the numbers he needed to get rid of his biggest threat, being Mikey. I'm sure that was a lot of luck too, because I'm sure he didn't align with Tracy because he perceived her to be a good strategist. Anyway, the swap came, and thanks to Cirie, Chet survived yet a third tribal council, and now he was rid of the main person who has been targeting him, being Joel. This meant that Chet was now in a great position in the game. He had Tracy and Erik coming to him, asking him to take out Ozzy, and Ami was open to it too. This was the exact position Ami, Tracy, and Chet had been fighting for the entire game, and Chet ruined it. I can at least give him credit for staying in as long as he did, against the odds.


#344. GC Brown
(Survivor: Gabon, 14th Place)



GC played a great game the first few days. He won the first immunity challenge, and he seemed to be pretty well liked at first too. His tribe even agreed to make him the leader. It was what happened after the first tribal council that makes his game in Gabon so horrible. Almost as soon as GC began to take control as leader, he realized he was in over his head, and even worse: the tribe realized it too. However, Gillian's physical weakness made her the only real target for elimination. on episoe 4, it was revealed that GC, Kenny, and Crystal were in an alliance together, which soon became the minority. He was saved by the swap, which put his alliance in control. After Jacquie went home, GC seemed to just stop caring, which annoyed even his closest allies. By the end of the episode, he just asked his tribe to vote him out, and even Crystal, who was his former ally, didn't even bother to ask him to stay. They saw a perfect opportunity to blindside Sugar, and flush out her idol, but chose to honor GC's request, and sent him home unanimously.
 

#343. Jeff Wilson
(Survivor: Palau, 16th Place)

 

I thought Jeff was doing a pretty good job for himself in the episodes he was in. He was well liked, had a close friend in Kim, and was perceived as one of the strongest members of the Ulong tribe. While his tribe had lost their third straight immunity challenge, they believe that they needed him to stay around for the sole reason that he was strong, and could've helped them to start winning challenges. After he hurt his ankle, he dropped out of the immunity challenge pretty quickly, and tried to convince his tribe that he would not help them in challenges. Even then, Bobby Jon still believed that he was still more valuable in challenges and around camp than Kim, and used Jeff's coconut chopping ability as an example. Angie strategically decided that it was better for her to send Jeff home, and was not convinced by Bobby Jon's argument. Jeff and Angie both got their wish, and Jeff was sent home. The fact that he was doing well socially, and was physically strong enough to have several tribe members convinced that he was still beneficial to them with a bad ankle is enough for him to make it this far on the list.



#342. Jon "Jonny Fairplay" Dalton
(Survivor: Micronesia, 20th Place)

 

It is a popular theory that Jon's sole purpose for being on the show in Micronesia was to get a free vacation from CBS. He even made a comment during the All Star season that the former winners on there were doing that. At the beginning of his first and only episode, it seemed like he was really in it to win it. It really seemed like he was playing a great game. Two group alliances were formed in the beginning: one which included Eliza, Ami, Yau Man, and Jonathan, and the other including Parvati, James, Ozzy, and Amanda. Both of these groups came to Jon asking him for his vote. He claims that if he had not quit, he would've eliminated Parvati, which obviously would've changed the whole season. Knowing the way he played in Pearl Islands, he could've done a whole lot after that to move himseslf up the totem pole. As of the first immunity challenge, he was in the most powerful position. However, he did end up asking his tribe mates to vote him out, which they did, and Jon became the first person eliminated from Fan Vs. favorites.


#341. Jenna Morasca
(Survivor: All Stars, 16th Place)



Out of everyone who quit, Jenna is the one I can have the most respect for. Her reasons were obviously the most acceptable, and while she questioned coming to do the show again, she did not quit because she didn't want to play the game, or because the conditions were too hard for her. She actually really wanted to play the game again. Before she quit though, her game wasn't that bad. Although she was a previous winner, she was good at staying under the radar while other members of Mogo Mogo made themselves targets, and she was also pretty well liked within her tribe. Other than that, there's really nothing that can be said. She wasn't in the most powerful position, but she wasn't an immediate target either. For that, and the fact that her quit had absolutely nothing to do with her lack of desire to stay in the game, she ranks the highest of all of the technical quitters, and higher than almost everyone who successfully asked to be voted out. 


Now that everyone who quit or refused to play the game is out, and almost everyone who was voted out by request is out, the list really starts here. Here are some hints for the next ten:
