Why Diplomacy is Better Than Survivor
| DIPLOMACY | SURVIVOR |
| Everything you need has already been made -- no sweat equity involved. | You have to build many things (fishing poles, rat traps, etc.) before being able to proceed in the way you want to. |
| Once you eliminate someone from the game, that player does not affect the outcome. | Eliminated players -- perhaps players you personally ticked off -- could cost you $1 million at the final vote. |
| One day. | Thirty-nine days. |
| You can get -- or at least seek -- revenge in the next game. | There is no next game. |
| Only six other people see you lose. | The entire world sees you lose -- not to mention your disgusting eating habits and other things better kept private. |
