I've actually thought a lot about this. I think I'd do a lot of different things.

I'd definitely do my best to set up a Jason/Danielle BB3 type situation, i.e., a secret alliance with 1 person throughout the whole game that no one suspected. My secret alliance partner and I would work opposite sides of the house just like they did.

I'd also throw challenges for at least the first 3 weeks so as not to appear too strong, and build an externally visible alliance of 3-4 other people. Once I got to final 7 or so I would drop the "weak" veneer and start kicking butt in competitions.

The main part of my strategy, though, would be basic groundwork: forming good personal relationships with most people in the house (though not EVERYONE, which would make people think I was playing all sides), tell lies only when they're strategically necessary, only make promises I could keep, avoid MAJOR arguments/confrontations (though have some smaller ones), and use the power of suggestion/reverse psychology as much as I could so I could escape blame for moves when they occur but take credit for them later.

Of course, I have a huge weakness for big flashy moves, so halfway through the game I'd probably go wild and shank one of my allies in the back in return for a ridiculous and probably soon-to-be-broken deal with one of my enemies, but I'd make sure it appeared strategic.

Above all, if I made it to the end, I would be honest about my lying and manipulation at the jury roundtable. I also wouldn't take any crap from the jury, a la the Donatos in BB8. It would be a blast.
