From when they divided into two teams. Hurley, Claire and Sawyer went with Locke but Rose stayed with Jack because she didn't like it that Locke stabbed Naomi in the back. Kate stayed with Jack and I think Jin and Sun did too.

Ah (lack of sleep here )

Can't say for sure -- it would depend on my interactions with each character I guess, but I'd probably lean more to Locke: he wanted survival, rather than rescue. If the freighter folk were trustworthy, I should just be rescued later, and if they weren't, I should have more of a chance of surviving, so from that point of view, Locke seems like the logical option, and consequently, my choice.

I have to go with Locke on this one. Him got it perfectly. If Jacks gang gets rescued, they will surely send help back to everyone else. If the freighter people are bad, well then, thank God we werent on it. I'd risk staying on the island with Locke until help arrives and just keep on "Surviven" with Sawyer!

I'd go with Locke for pretty much the same reason as KatesFate although How come Keamy went straight to Locke's camp ? Did he already know Ben would be there ?

I think i would go with Locke, is it really that bad on the island if you dont get rescued?? No work, no pressure, no problems, everyone gets healed, the others had nice little pads going on to live in, they have food, water, and hey KF i agree with you, you get to daydream at Sawyer all day!!

It seems either option was bad! Go with Jack and things later go awry. Stay on the island and bad things happen!

I like it that I'm the only one with Jack! As long as he doesn't ask me to do any sewing!

After seeing Jack pull that trigger on Locke, I would have went with Jack.

I lied. Locke of course! I don't know what Rose was drinking that day, but there was only one mad man on the scene, and his name began with a 'J' and ended with an 'ack'.

Locke's philosophy would have appealed to me - he was calm and collective, and he spoke of re-grouping, planning, strategising. Jack was simply spouting...and he snuck up on Locke like a coward!

Locke is an old man, Jack is in his prime..doesn't Jack have any shame?

Yup, I'd have gone with the mystical one
