What's to stop people from being "voted off" for no other reason than that a certain FR clique got together to screw over someone they don't like?

It would have to be a huge clique, because you vote for who gets to stay, and the clique would have to have enough votes to put 10 others ahead of the unfortunate screwee.

But you know what? I fully anticipate there are going to be groups that try to stack the island, and other groups that try to get certain people off. It will probably have some rough spots and never be perfect. And if someone decides to use their spot to be obnoxious continually, thinking they have the votes to stay on, they will find out that the rules can be adapted as needed to prevent problems. And that one vote by Jim counts a hell of a lot more than others. :-)

Good questions, but there are no real clique's here, just people with endless ping lists. So, if you run I will ping a thousand FREEPERS :-)
