From a Survivor standpoint I think of it like this. Before I actually begin, just let me state that I hate this Survivor Contestant and Survivor Season but it works.

In Redemption Island Phillip constantly said that he was going to outdo Rob in the final vote. The deal was he knew how he was perceived, and he'd come into tribal saying "I knew how I was going to be so I just emphasized it so Rob would take me to the end as the goat when all along I was just playing him." Of course that didn't happen and he basically said he wouldn't be here without Rob, but my point still stands.

It helped me get here. Augusto said that we both thought of each other as goats. A lot of people thought that I would be the one to lose a jury vote against anyone because of my unlikeability. But maybe in some sort of twisted way, the fact that I knew I'd get here because I'd be thought of as a goat helps me tremendously. People tend to focus on the negatives. People are looking for a reason to beat you in this game. I gave them a reason. But the fact that I knew it was going to be a reason puts me over the edge of Augusto I feel.

It helps to know your strengths but it helps to know your weaknesses. more That's why my unlikeability worked for me. Augusto's likability makes it more difficult for someone to want to take him to the end. You said it yourself you saw him as a bigger threat to win than I was. But in reality I knew that's what was going to happen. I was aware of how I'd be perceived and used it to my advantage when it came to getting to the end of this game.
