Pregame Questions

[Host Brett]

Welcome back! We're excited to finally begin! We hope you're excited too! We have just a few questions for you to answer!

Also please note: If you'd like to lock your confessional from PWs, please PM both of us with a password and which PWs if any you'd like to allow access. We trust our PW team very much, and we hope that you will trust our judgement, but if you're uncomfortable, that option is available to you.


1: Would you describe yourself as a Hero or a Villain?

2: What's your strategy going to be like?

3: Any pre-existing friendships or rivalries?

4: Knowing how people played in prior seasons, are there anyone that you're wary of? Anyone that you might want to work with?

5: What's one word you would use to describe your gameplay or personality?

6. What did you learn from your last time playing? Are you going to play similarly, or are you planning on changing things up?

7. What do you think of your title? Do you plan to live up to it, or defy it? If you could change it, what would you pick?

8. Any other comments?


- In the event that you're tied with someone else for most votes after a re-vote at Tribal Council, we'll move onto a tie breaker challenge between the two who are tied. Please rank these in your order of preference.

1: Would you describe yourself as a Hero or a Villain?

Well, I have played the game of Survivor many a time, so it's hard to depict my personality as one or the other. I suppose the most applicable game to answer this question with would be Sausage Island, and I was definitely a hero there. That's not to say I wasn't making villainous moves, but I feel as though I was portrayed in a very positive light, and was overall pretty loyal. Plus, I was kind of the antithesis to Kim at a point, who was clearly the villain of the season.

2: What's your strategy going to be like?

I think when playing a game such as this, your only strategy is to be adaptable. You're playing with 34 very capable ORGers, in a series that has proven time and time again to have unpredictable twists. I think to set out with any kind of cemented strategy would just be limiting, and I want to be as open as possible going into this game.

3: Any pre-existing friendships or rivalries?

I'll be listing these in a video confessional soon!

4: Knowing how people played in prior seasons, are there anyone that you're wary of? Anyone that you might want to work with?

I think the only people that I'm wary of, based on how they played, are Phillip and Sandra. Phillip and I got into a few arguments in Sausage Island, and that's something we never really cleared up. It was two years ago, sure, but I'm sure he didn't forget. Sandra is just a villain and I really have no personal connection with her, so I don't know if I can trust her word. Other than that, I'm open to anyone. Oh, and I want to work with Mary. Just because.

5: What's one word you would use to describe your gameplay or personality?

My favorite word for this is subtle, because I think the ability to be subtle is so important in the game of Survivor. You need to be able to get things to happen, without people realizing you're pulling the strings. I've been trying to emulate subtlety in games for a while now, but sometimes I don't get it right. I'll kind of continue this answer in the next question.

6. What did you learn from your last time playing? Are you going to play similarly, or are you planning on changing things up?

Last time, I was pretty much a HBIC type. I called the shots and I was vocal about anything and everything. I was a little arrogant, to be honest. This time, I want to be much more reserved and try and fit into alliances, not lead them.

7. What do you think of your title? Do you plan to live up to it, or defy it? If you could change it, what would you pick?

I absolutely love my title! It's fantastic really. I just don't know if I'm going to live up to it in an HBIC kind of way. I really want people to question whether or not I've lived up to it, and THEN I can prove that I did at the final tribal council. If people think I'm ringleading from the beginning, I can't see myself in the finale.
