   Mid/End Season
   Teamwork was very productive
   Teams had to build camp from scraps

   Teamwork started to disappear
   Game was based more on individual efforts
   Only lasting teamwork was alliances that were made earlier in the game

   The Providers
   Who can fish, hunt, or gather

   The Manipulators
   Who make alliances, backstab, and deceive
   
9. 9. Are any behaviors from Survivor represent on your team?
   The team building is more of the positive aspects of the show but there arent really any of the negative aspects.
   
10. 10. Destructive behaviors that undermined someones ability to become relevant: Blatant or Subtle
    Jokes: both blatant and subtle. Uses humor to distract what the person is saying.
    Not hearing/overruling/not listening to people: Subtle if pretending not to hear the person. Blatant if you tell the person to shut up.
    Not the one bitchin: Blatant. Directly tells the group that the person is being detrimental to the group.
    
11. 11.
12. 12. Behaviors determining Relevance: Blatant or Subtle cont.
    People overworking: Subtle. This puts others off that they think they are better than the rest of the group
    Making the negatives of people pointed out for the reason they need to go home: Blatant, directly insinuating they wont be relevant.
    Alliances: Subtle, people group up to not allow others to succeed.
    Voting person off: Blatant, it is part of the game, but shows the person is not a true survivor

14. 14. Misleading people
    Utilitarianism: Misleading people is normal if the greater good is achieved.
    The ends justify the means.
    Kant: Ethical stance that the way a person gets to the end decision is important and universal truths.
    If everyone misleads each other it causes deceit, chaos, and distrust.
    If everyone tells the truth and works together toward common goal it creates bond and an utopian society.
    
15. 15.
16. 16. Is it more important to tell the truth bluntly or be sensitive and still truthful?
    It is always better to be sensitive and still truthful rather than being blunt.
    Being blunt can make people become defensive and can break the relationships in a team.
    Politeness, even if criticizing, provides higher chances to get a good outcome/ solution to a problem.
    
17. 17. Have you witnessed any of these behaviors in life?
    One person of a team did someone else's part of the project to be nice without being asked to.The other person had nothing left to do for the project and received a C based on team rating.
    In one of my classes during a team project, one team member out of 4 showed up with his own project because he did not blended into the group.
    
18. 18. Is it always best to tell the truth and nothing but the truth even if it hurts someone?
    It depends on the situation and the truth.
    If someone will be hurt a lie is better.
    If the truth is constructive criticism, than truth is better.
    In our case study, as long as the truth does not hurt you and hurts someone else is perfectly fine as long as you do not get caught, if you do you will be voted off.
    Ethics versus money, or truth versus being voted off.
    
19. 19. What did you learn from this project?
    The best one does not always win.
    Dont trust anyone.
    Watch your back.
    Sweet talk bring more advantages.
    You have to decide if money or ethics are more important to you.
