Because the person who uses techniques that other players whine and bitch out wins.
In the end, the only thing that matters is that somebody's win count increased by one, and the other person is kicked off the machine.
It's exactly like the first season of Survivor. Richard Hatch formed a four person alliance to vote everyone off, and everyone screamed and bitched that it was unfair.
Who won the million dollars?
BTW, I'm hard on you because I just can't deal with the attitude that some moves are "cheap," as you say.
