Johnny

## *Survivor* Career

**Johnny** is the Sole Survivor of *Survivor: Guadeloupe - Land of Loyalty*.

Initially playing under the radar, Johnny found himself in a good position within his tribe by forming strong social bonds with everyone most notably with Locke. Come merge, he quickly switched his game to an aggressive one, setting up several blindsides and winning many immunity challenges. Late merge, Johnny formed a Final 4 Alliance with Ryan, Twin, and Jay and eventually reached that stage in the game. Winning the final immunity challenge and making the Final 3, Johnny won in a 4-3-1 vote due to his strong social game, aggressive strategic game, combined with his many challenge wins and advantage finds.

## Profile

**Timezone and Pronouns:** EST, He/Him.

**Previous ORG Experience:** In May of 2018 I played in my first discord ORG with Kitrulfer's game. I made it to to final 4 I believe. I haven't used discord since then but after that game I joined the survivor instagram community. Over the next like year I played so many games, however the community there was slightly toxic so I stopped playing. I'm back now though and from my one discord experience the community seems much better.

**Pet Peeves:** IRL I can't stand loud chewing. In ORGs though my pet peeves are inactive players or people who don't take the game seriously.

**How would you describe yourself?** One side of me is a complete homebody, introvert, who like reading books and is a total nerd. I am very intelligent, was valedictorian of my senior class, and am a complete perfectionist. I am like the most anal person I know but I come off as very laid back and chill. Despite being a natural introvert and kind of that typical quiet nerd, I was also captain of my varsity cross country team, am the current fundraising chair for a Catholic Club at my college, and member of a fraternity. Throughout my life I have been the kid with no friends and zero confidence, but I have also been the homecoming king and the captain of a mock trial team that has argued a case in front of a judge. I have come really far since I was a really shy and insecure kid and now I am a self-assured and self-aware guy who really knows himself.

**Why do you think you'll win the season?** I think I will win this season because I am adaptable. Coming in with a step by step strategy other than "be nice, be helpful, don't be inactive" is setting yourself up for failure. I am very aware of my surroundings and I have a natural instinct that is going to help me out. I can talk to every type of person and get in with any group, but I also hold nothing back going into these games. I'm loyal to myself and will take calculated risks if they are going to get me further.

**What does your confessional mean to you?** To me confessionals are a place to voice your inner strategy, talk about your tribe, and vent your frustrations. I always give in depth confessionals and I am truly an open book in them.
