"2. Jon and Jaclyn, I haven't yet fully grasped how they became a power couple, in some ways I more mad at the other contestants for not wanting to get rid of two obvious threats and making them the power couple, (when obviously they hadn't had the numbers pre-merge)"

How did they become a power couple? After the switch, there were two couples that didn't get along (Maylor and Dalley), so they had the power to choose which one would prevail. At the merge there were again two alliance who didn't get along, and they again were in the middle. And why would someone get rid of one of them? For the other become again a swing vote? And if they get rid of both of them, they would have to go to rocks (if Julie was still there) or one alliance (in this case Jeremy's) would be outnumbered.

"3. Jaclyn, she is both annoying and lacks knowledge of the game of survivor. She is too dependent on Jon and got mad at him for thinking too far in the future of the game. Which makes me upset, simply because survivor is a game where the future of who your playing with in the game matters more. The only reason why she is as far as she is due to Jon, who at least is attempting to play the game."

Yes, because it makes much sense you think about the F3 when you are still in the F11. You only start thinking about the endgame when you have real chances of get there. David last season chose Garrett as the weakest on Luzon at day one thinking about the endgame, and look where that got him. And yes, Jaclyn only survived the pagong of her alliance on Coyopa because of Jon on Hunahpu. If you can't see that she is the real brains behind Jon, too bad.

"I think it was smart that Reed had found a crack and blindsided Jeremy, (although I liked Jeremy, I wasn't mad at Reed because it was a reasonable decision)."

Reed had nothing to do with Jeremy's blindside. Maylor and Jonclyn only used him to get the majority as they couldn't tell Natalie abaout it and Reed would do anything to survive. Jeremy was threatening Jon and they decided to blindside him. And as Reed didn't even tell his alliance (which he was throwing unbder the bus earlier that day), he could have voted to anybody else and Jeremy would still be voted out.
