I'm sorry that you don't agree with my idea, but you could've been nicer about it. Here are my answers to your opinions:

(1.) The season is called Total Drama All-Stars for a reason. Lightning and Jo weren't really the "all-stars" of their debut season, while characters like Mike, Zoey, and Cameron were (because of the writers). Plus, I didn't really want to mess with any plot or storylines, and since Lightning and Jo's (which weren't really huge this season) didn't have much of a reason to be major, I booted them early.

(2.) Lindsay would fight a seal because of the S3 theme song. Duncan would fight Trent because of their TDA conflict. Gwen would fight Tyler because of him spilling the beans about her and Duncan's relationship. I know these were never really "major" conflicts or even real, for that matter, in the actual show, but the fights Chris set up in my series were to humiliate them. Chris wouldn't make Gwen fight someone like Heather in my series, he'd like the confliction to spice up a bit. And I said my series, not the real one, where the writers had Chris stage a useless fight between Gwen and Courtney.

(3.) And back to the All-Stars thing, Heather is probably the biggest all-star of the series. So her placing in the final five is pretty okay to me.

And about the screenhogs being used more, of course that's gonna happen. Remember, I can't change too much so if the writers (the real ones) are gonna give the minority characters less plot and story, then I can't give them much more.

I hope you understand. - TheScottBird.
