Tell me a bit about yourself outside of the game. What are your hobbies, interests, or passions?
Alright my name is Dan and I’m a 15 year old high school student from Georgia. One thing about me is that I’m a very goal-oriented person. Right now my main goals are to become a state champ in wrestling, to become my high schools class of 2026 valedictorian, and to get a full ride scholarship to the university of Georgia. By that you can probably get that I’m an athlete. I’m very passionate about wrestling and it’s one of the few things that takes me away from everyday stresses and helps me to just have focus and drive towards something. Even though I’m an athlete, I’m also a big nerd lol. I work hard at my grades and that’s my main priority right now.
What's a flaw that you have when playing in ORGs, and how do you plan to improve it or adapt your gameplay? If this is your first ORG, what are you planning to do overall?
My biggest flaw for my previous ORGs is the inconsistency of my social game. Strategically I’ve always been great. I hardly make any bad moves, but I just have a hard time making connections and even sometimes convincing people to make the best move for THEIR game. It can sometimes lead me to being the underdog and on the bottom for a lot of the game which is never where I wanna be.
How do you handle unexpected twists or changes in a game's format or rules?
Well the way I see it whenever you play big brother you can’t ever expect one format because every season has its fair share of twists. I always like to keep my play style open and adaptable to where no twists are able to screw over my game and I am able to capitalize on any advantages a twist might be able to offer me.
How would you describe your gameplay style? Are you more strategic, social, physical, or a jack of all trades?
First off I’m a big analytics guy so I love this question but that’s off topic
1. Strategy (9/10)
I was really tempted to say 10/10 just because I honestly rarely ever see myself make an incorrect move in the game however, nobody is perfect and I am no exception, but my strategy is my biggest asset in the game because knowing what moves to make is essential to getting the right people gone at the right times and carving that path to the end. I think my strategy is kind of a product of my general intelligence outside of the game and my love of analyzing everything and game theory. I always weigh out all of my options and select the right one 99% of the time.
2. Physical 7/10
To be fair I’m probably a little rusty because I haven’t played an org in a while but when I do play I’m usually one of the better comp players in the season and I’m good for at least a few wins. Part of being good at competitions is having the perfect strategy to win them which is what I’m good at. I might not be the most naturally skilled at most of them but after thinking through the challenges I can usually find the optimal way to play them which makes me a threat to win any comps.
3. Social: 6.5/10
This might not still be the case as I feel I’ve grown a lot personally since my last org, but my last few orgs have seen me not be able to make connections with the right people which sometimes gets me left out of alliances and put on the bottom. It’s a facet of my game that needs refining, and I think it’s an aspect of my game that is definitely subject to change.
4. Jack of all trades
I don’t feel right ranking this strategy because it’s really just a combination of them all, but I think really what makes me so dangerous as a versatile player is that my strategy is able to bring my physical game and social game together to make me a beast inside of the house. I’m able to plan out who I align with and what connections I make. I also am able to plan out when I need to win comps and if I’m going to throw them how i will use my comp losses to my advantage in the game. Overall I do think that I am very much a jack of all trades. 
As a host, confessionals are one of the most important things to me! How do you tackle your confessionals? Do you update them live with your thought process, or info dump at the end of an episode, or something else?
Well as an analyst I do like to do a lot of rankings and lists to show who I’m bonded with, but I also love situational confessionals to bring some emotion into the game. You look at the best big brother players like Dr will and Dan gheesling and how they dominate the game. They don’t do it robotically and make boring tv, they provide the flash and showmanship that makes big brother and reality tv so great. Without people like them I wouldn’t watch shows like big brother and survivor and I love to provide that same kind of entertainment to the viewers and hosts of orgs.
How do you handle conflict or disagreements with others?
Umm well it depends. I usually have to reflect on what I’m doing to have these conflicts, but I have a big problem with always having to be right which doesn’t help in big brother at all. Sometimes I have to look at what I’m doing and sometimes just decide that it’s more beneficial to concede the conflict in favor of benefitting myself in the future. In big brother this usually helps me to be able to reconcile with people after either I target them or they target me. Oftentimes people get so caught up in who’s targeted them before and getting revenge that they don’t even realize that what might be best for them is working with the people who have wronged them.
