## Player Profile

**1.** Hey I'm Ryan, 22, and a male from near and around Pittsburgh, PA! That puts me in the EST time zone. I'm currently a broke-ass college kid just trying to get by . I'm a senior going for my computer science degree, and I'm lookin to graduate in about 2 years with my degree, since I went through a major change last semester. Most used emoji HAS to be , just because it can be used for SO MANY THINGS. Somethings incredibly cute: Somethings actually heartbreaking: Expressing adoration/affection: It really is incredibly versatile!!

**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 Jupiter?**

I have played, at this point, about 7 ORGs! And am currently in 3 others (because I *loooove* to torture myself). Thankfully my schedule over that past few months has allowed it, so I'm just excited to have gotten as much experience as possible! My most recent orgs are currently DuORG (Baby Gang!!), Dorgphin: Neverwinter, and Viper Survivor. Most of them should be wrapping up in the first few weeks of this org, and I don't plan on joining anything after this to dedicate as much time as possible to this! My average placement in all the orgs I've done has been just over 5th place, and I'm hoping to take home another W

**3. Give us your most unpopular Survivor opinion:**

Survivor: One World is *actually* one of the best seasons? . Sure it's not for everyone! But just watching an edit of such a clear winner is honestly so exciting, because you can really break down their game! Plus with so many great characters like Monica, Troyzan, Kim, and more, it really became one of my favorite seasons to watch, even though the beginning is kind of difficult to get through!

**4. What is your coolest party trick? Any unusual talents?**

Hmmmm well I can juggle! Believe it or not! At least with 3 items, and they have to be hacky sacks . I also can sing pretty well! It's one of my like ONLY talents! So I will *absolutely* use it however I can! (Though it doesn't help much in ORGs, I must say )

**5. What is your favorite piece of sci-fi or space-related media?**

This is definitely a tough one, because I have a soft spot for sci-fi . I'd probably have to go with The Netflix series *Black Mirror,* because it's just so interesting to explore like how the world would be if like one or two things were introduced that were technologically advanced! I love that kind of like butterfly effect kind of story telling, as it's *so* similar to how our world is, but different in just one way, that causes a big change!!

**6. What is your Hogwarts house and your patronus? If you don’t know, make your guess and tell us what “spirit animal” you would want to represent you.**

Hmmmmmm I'm not much of a Harry Potter superfan, though I've seen all the movies! I feel like I'd be a Ravenclaw, since I don't know much about them, but they seem very middle-of-the-road! I don't associate myself with overtly good or overtly evil, so I'm totally chill with riding the middle! I of course prefer to be a good guy, but know it's not always possible. Plus I'm *far* from heroic . A patronus, upon a quick google search, is like a literal spirit animal I think? So let's go with a a like house dog/puppy! I love to be nosy and all up in everyone's business! So I'll go with that

**7. We just witnessed the passing of another decade. What was one of your top songs and/or artists of said decade?**

My top songs on Spotify were just a TON of broadway and show tunes and stuff . Some of my most-played shows were Hadestown, Beetlejuice, and N2N of the past decade!

**8. If you were asked to give a presentation on something random that you are an expert in, what would you talk about?**

I would, of course, talk about musical theater or film. Or maybe how they're interconnected! I'm lowkey OBSESSED with both of them, and geek out just a tad too much about each of them. Unfortunately, there really isn't much to talk about in terms of movie ports of existing musicals, as they generally flop, but some have made history like *Chicago* and *Hello, Dolly!* and others! But I'd probably focus the presentation more on the difference between film and theater, and really talk about how a camera can be used for certain things that a live audience just can't, and vice versa!

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

Outwitting

**10. How is that going to help you win Survivor: Jupiter?**

I take my social game *incredibly* seriously. And by that, I mean that I actually play this game to make friends. I can't describe how many absolutely amazing people that I've met and stayed close to in this game. And my personability can hopefully take me further in this game as well, as I intend to make strong relationships with those that I actually *like.* I've found that alliances are stronger when you're working with people that you don't want to lose, and I'm hoping to fill that spot in a few people's alliances in this game! I'll admit, though, it's also my biggest weakness. I tend to trust people TOO much based on how I feel about them, and it gets me into sticky situations. But I'm hoping to avoid that here! I'll play with my heart, but only til I can't anymore
