## Wizards of Wonder Player Profile

**1.) What should specs know about you?**

Specs should know that I'm here to play hard. This will only be my third game, so I'm still kinda figuring out how to balance my game. My first time, I was too outwardly strategic and was targeted bc of that. My most recent game, I was more social but got more hurt bc of it. So I'm kinda trying to find the balance of making moves when I have to, but not being too outward about it. But I'm willing to take shots! Each time I've played I've been behind one really big move that shifts the game...but it just doesn't always work out for me long term. I think I'll try to play up my teaching background this game to try to decrease my threat level. I think having a wide range of ages in this cast might help me with that.

**2.) Why should specs draft you in their spec games?**

The words that people I formerly played with usually use to describe me are smart and rational (according to confs). Idk if that's a good thing or not, sometimes that's been used to justify a move against my allies ("he's rational, he'll understand!") Also sometimes it's used to target me.

I think if I can be quieter about my rationality, maybe that can help me out. Idk specs, draft me bc I'll play an interesting game where I'll stay true to myself but I'll kinda be building the plane as I'm flying it.

In all, I think I am a rational player who usually is good at separating the game from everything else. We're here for a fake game for a nonexistent prize, so I'd much rather play a fun and interesting game than win.

My social game is good enough to get by (last game I tried to be way more social and ending up trying to be someone I'm not so it was exhausting. And it didn't get me any further. I'm not super charming so I've learned to stop trying to be someone I'm not)

My physical game is pretty much where I want it. I usually can place around 3rd or so in a tribal challenge - enough to be useful, not enough to be threatening. I try to put the gas on at mid-merge.

My strategic game is both my biggest strength and weakness. I think of a lot of ways out of sticky situations, but sometimes I do it too loudly and people get scared by it.

**3.) If you were to win this season, what would be the reason?**

If I were to win, I'd see it as a winning balance. That's what I struggle with most. Winning would mean I aligned with the right people, got them before they got me, and did so in a way that gains their respect.

**4.) If you were to lose this season, what would be the reason?**

Failure. Just general failure.

**5.) What are you most excited about this season?**

I'm excited for the community. I really like the emphasis on maintaining a positive community in the rules and announcements so far. Getting voted out has never been the worst part of orgs to me. The worst part is getting to pondy and seeing people just be mean (to me or others). So the fact that this productions staff does something about that is encouraging.

But that's kinda a sad answer, so here are my other reasons! I've been an HP fan for like, ever, so I really like joining themed seasons like this. It can help my social game too since I'm assuming a lot of people here will automatically have two fandoms in common (Survivor and HP) so that's cool just for the sake of meeting people. Also I have never found an immunity idol before and each season I always think this can be the one so I'm hoping this can be the season I finally find one! If I do that, I can cross it off my Survivor bucket list.

## Character Ranking

**Season Character Rankings:**

**S7: 19. Eric**

*Eric was someone who I was excited to have on the cast. A teacher with a lot of personality seemed like a great fit. Unfortunately, he just did not commit to the game, then said some really harsh things to me and about me, then went invisible. So I mean, I can't really say much positive about that happening and thus he has to be low on the rankings. I am sure in another org he would do better but he just didn;t seem to enjoy this season and that is fine. Can't please everyone!*
