## Profile

**1. Tell us as much or as little as you want about yourself:**
My name is ~~Andrew~~ Red.

I am a 30 years young as of June 28.
I am a male.
I live in the US. I currently reside in my birth state of Delaware, however after spending a handful of years in North Carolina my heart belongs down there4. I am a teacher, but not in the standard sense. I have the privilege of working in a small setting classroom with kids who struggle with their behaviors because they have emotional trauma among other aspects. And honestly, this is perfect for me looking back. At 16, I started working with low income community youth teaching anti-drug curriculums and summer camps. I showed up with so much passion to try to make a difference for these kiddos, and they in return made me feel so much love back day after day after day because, as sad as it it to say, they weren’t getting the love I showed up with anywhere else... Many of my kiddos now are in similar situations, while not necessarily the living circumstances, but not getting that love they desperately need. And I love that I am able to be there for them and am grateful for every minute I get with them, regardless if they are screaming at me or not.

**2. Have you played any orgs before? If yes, how many and what did you play most recently? Are you playing any others at the same time as this one?** Yes! So let’s break it down for real, I have recently discovered not only this whole Survivor Discord community, but also the depths of Discord in general.
I’ve been watching Survivor since S1. I happened to be in the right place at the right time. I can’t tag this person yet, but I very randomly met someone who mentioned there are Survivor ORGs & they host one, I said waaaaaait I need to experience this, they (in their words) had a feeling about my presence, & next thing I know I’m *late accepted* to Unreal S8 & hit the ground running!

**3. Give us your most unpopular Survivor opinion:**
2003, Jonny Fairplay was ahead of his time, and the “dude, how is grandma” lie was amazing!
2004, Boston Rob was ahead of his time, he won All Stars. I highly dislike a bitter jury and there are a HANDFUL of people on this jury that just couldn’t accept the fact they were outplayed. The reunion with Richard Hatch calling everyone out MULTIPLE TIMES is a HIGHLIGHT. Also, overall Super Idols are stupid, oh wow you can wait until after the votes are read AND THEN play the idol...

**4. What is your coolest party trick? Any unusual talents?** ’m good at drinking games?Well wait, I was good at drinking games
There was a time while I was in college I was spectacular at drinking games, especially beer pong; at one point in life I could ask my partner what cup they were aiming for & whatever cup they told me, they would hit it and I would hit it immediately following and we would call “game”.
I guess that’s a talent right?

**5. What is your favorite “Time Travel” piece of media?**
the 12 Monkeys TV show is sooooooooooo good.
The show starts off with a similar plot to the movie, but very very very quickly is its own story.

**6. Pretend its the 60’s. There isn’t any internet! How do you keep busy?**
Well, “2001 a space odyssey” was released late 60s, so I probably would have spent time debating if it was good or not since it caused such polarizing opinions when it premiered.
I probably would’ve been watching a lot of baseball & boxing.
Did The Flintstones premiere in the 60s? I feel like The Flintstones premiered in the 60s.(edited)
I probably would be at a ton of concerts! Lots of good music from the 60s. The Beatles came in America mid 60s so that would have been pretty sweet.

**7. In 1969 which musical artist would you be listening to? Elvis The Rolling Stones Tina Turner**I enjoy a lot of different music, so I would’ve probably been listening to all three of these choices? IF I had to pick just one, The Rolling Stones is my clear cut answer.

**8. If you were asked to give a presentation on something random that you are an expert in, what would you talk about?** The history of piracy. I could give a pretty swell presentation on early 1700s Republic of Pirates in general and specifically certain key figures from that time period. I took a fancy to pirates at some point in life and did a lot of reading about them over the years. Fun fact, happy coincidence my college mascot was/is the Pirates. So there’s that haha

**9. Of the three tenets of Survivor, which one do you think you’re the best at: Outwitting, Outplaying, or Outlasting?**

**10. How is that going to help you win Survivor: Luna ?**
I just combined Question 9 and 10 because similar to my thought process above; these two questions overlap in my mind.
I’m trying to figure out a way to say just one of them but it’s a struggle. I do my best thinking by talking it out so here we go...
I believe my strongest attribute is my social ability. I am able to connect with people. I’m a people person. You put me in a room with strangers, I have no problem navigating through what others feel is an incredibly awkward situation and making these strangers comfortable enough to let down their shields or insecurities and just vibe in that moment.(edited)
Building off of that, I mentioned I play poker & other games that require constantly analyzing & reading of other people involved. I feel like I am able to pick up on a things other people might overlook, even if it’s the smallest most subtle thing. Granted a lot of this is live in person, but the same applies to how people present themselves in text.
So right now, reading my thoughts back to me I have described what I perceive as a combination of Outwit and Outplay...
But the endgame is to use those two to ultimately Outlast everyone because to win I need to survive more days than everyone else.
So my answer to the three options is the same answer someone who misunderstands the question “Soup or Salad?” and doesn’t ask for the question to be repeated...
YES.
If I can use my positive skill sets to build strong relationships where people trust me & want to work with me, accurately read the room as events transpire, make the smart decisions based on said reads, and don’t burn too many bridges when I have to cut ties with people who no longer benefit my endgame...
I will be Luna champion. Sounds easy!
