Aaron went from hero to zero for me and he only won because people saw what they wanted to see and the cheap online voting, will always be my take on it. An interesting 'different' winner who deserved it from the awful cast but nonetheless was not this champ people call him.
Anton just stirred trouble, was again not a 'gameplayer' and stupidly thought people would like his villain antics.

I was an Aaron supporter, and I think people became more open to him being a game player, after he came out afterwards and said he was. He did some pretty petty things, but he was head and shoulders above everyone else that year.
I used Anton as he was the only recent example I could think of where a hm was actually attempting to play the game, and keeping us informed that he was doing so. There is still such a stigma across the casual bb viewers about being a so-called game player, that it would be impossible to do well if a hm was being open about it.
