Kimark

**Kimark**, or just Mark, is the Fan Favorite of Survivor: Sea of Galilee! He later returned for Survivor: Salar de Uyuni.

Mark had a big underdog arc in his original season. Starting out with a strong partnership with Robb, they both worked to get each half of the half idol. When the two tribes merged into one, Mark's large target quickly caught up to him. He was recognized as a threat and was pushed into the minority after the chaotic Daniel boot. This trend would continue throughout the season, Mark never really being able to get back on top, having to rely on immunity wins to stay afloat. At the finale, when Mark finally lost an immunity to Papaya, Mark was quickly sent home in a 3-2 vote.

His underdog status is what got him back for All Stars. Playing a much better game, Mark was able to legitimately control votes and form the bonds needed to stay on top. Sadly, Mark from the get go was still a target. The social idol hunt put his alliances out in the open, and Mark was swiftly growing in threat level because of it. At his vote out, Mark refused to play his idol even with constant badgering from people like Angel. This caused his demise as he was eliminated at the Final 8 in a 5-3 vote.

### Profile

* **Name and Pronouns:** Mark, he/him
* **Who is your inspiration in life?:** Growing up, my main inspiration was my aunt who could study and work her way to the capital city of my country. I come from a pretty difficult background, but now I can say that I am the first in my family to get a degree, and a lot of it is thanks to this lady and her encouraging words. Now, the main inspiration are my friends. They all inspire me in different ways: to be more curious about the world, be more ambitious, outgoing, and so on. They are truly the best!
* **Three words that describe you?:** Optimist, Patient, but a notorious overthinker
* **What is your strategy for this season?:** I guess I don't really have one? I know from similar games that I can come off as a try-hard, so in this game, I will try to maintain a balance between looking for allies and letting people find me. In the beginning, I will be like an open door. I really believe that strong relationships are necessary to make it far in the game, even for an ORG.

* **Why do you think you'll win?:** I hope that I am likable and non-threatening enough to make is past the first few votes. And I know that I am determined and convincing enough to make it the past few votes. The in-between may cause some problems, I gues..

* **What made you want to play again?:** In my very limited ORG ecperience, the hosting was top notch and I had a fun time - so I'll be here anytime you call me!

* **Do you have what it takes to earn redemption?:** Fuck yeah! The fact that I was close to the end and one of the bigger contenders just fuels me more. I am ready to be the Jeremy of the season! Second chance, baby!
* **How have you changed as a person since your last run through?:** As the other game wrapped up yesterday, I did not change as a person, but I did have some time to think about how to adjust my playstyle compared to last time.
* **Are you ready to win?:** I am ready to play my heart out and keep my eye on the prize. I know I have what it takes to win.
