## Profile

### Season 2

**Why would you be a good addition to the cast?** "To cast, or not to cast, that is the question. You might like this app, you might not, but Ill say it, straight up, I would be a fantastic addition to this game, and heres why. Starting off, I have a very likeable personality, one that can bring a unique flair of quirkyness, humor, and leadership. Using this from the beginning would be a staple of my game, trying to set a fun and energetic vibe throughout the cast. Through all the nicities though, I have somewhat of a short fuse, and have been known to hold a grudge from time to time. My smile could turn upside down reeeeal quick if someone makes me mad. If they have a reason for the offending action, Im not such a loser that i wont reconciliate and forgive someone, however.

Next, theres something that im not always proud of, but that should benefit me in a major way during this game, my competitive nature. Im SO competitive. TOO competitive. One of those kids, I know. But during this game, when winning minor challenges will play a big factor in who wins the game, this could be a great outlet for my competitive drive to come out in a positive way.

I know there are lots of applicants, and that most are saying these same thinhs, but I assure you, I will do my best to win, and make the game as exciting as possible."

**What is your strategy?** "My strategy is fairly simple. I will try to be what I like to think of as "the 2nd guy". I dont want to be the one running the show, controlling everything, but Im not just going to sit back and watch the game go by. I want to always keep myself somewhere in the middle, but important and valuable enough to keep me. To accomplish this, during survivor weeks, Ill try not to be the one carrying my team to victory, but do my fair share of the competition to make myself useful. During Big Brother, I want to avoid winning HOH and Vetoes for a while, unless a situation arises where I must go all out to protect myself or someone important for my game. Hopefully, I can avoid that though, and slide through until the later weeks, maybe 7-9 people left, where I can really start going hard and trying to take control. I will do this in as sly a way as possible, not alarming my alliance members to the point of backstabbing me, but keeping me and my people happy."

**Are you a good confessionalist? Have any examples or samples of what we might expect?** "I have never had a game with confessionals, but I definitely would love having them in this game. I will have fun making my confessionals dramatic and entertaining, but still understandable of whats going on as it happens. Ill keep you updated, happy, and hopefully laughing. :)"

### Season 3

**Why would you be a good addition to the cast?** "Heres the deal. I could say two things here. I could talk about how great I am, how I would make the season entertaining, give pretty decent confessionals, add to the experience overall, et cetera et cetera.

Or I could talk about what you really want to hear: TO GET REVENGE FOR MY FUCKING IDOL MISPLAY AFTER HOLDING IT UNTIL YOU BASICALLY CANT ANYMORE.

I would like to think that I was one of the more entertaining participants of S:BB2, (not that that is too difficult), but I plan on bringing a whole new level of my game that you havent seen on this org. Im a nice person at heart, and (thanks partially to saint), have become ready to become the one who shoves the knife into peoples backs, one by one. Im taking more control this season, and its gonna be fun."

**What is your strategy?** "So obviously if I want to take control, Im gonna have to do it in a way that doesnt make everyone hate me and see me as a bigger threat then when a sad, puny little armadillo sees a...well, whatever eats armadillos. So im going to have to plan this extensively. As of now, I plan on using my kind of classic, nice-guy persona prom last season in the early rounds, still not winning too many challenges. During this time, its key that I find someone like saint was for me last season that can be my partner in crime. Between the two of us, we will establish connections with different people, hopefully finding a strong core that I can be sure will stick with me for a while. But this "sit-back" period wont last long. Somewhere close to merge, I want to start controlling. Not like me and saint last season, where I basically let saint take all the heat, but actually doing the heavy lifting myself. Its crucial that I have my core bunch with me at this time, because if I dont, Ill be out in a heartbeat. My social game is going to be key this season and hopefully I can be the aggressor (as saint has repeatedly told me I should be😂)"

**Are you a good confessionalist? Have any examples or samples of what we might expect?** "I think i was a decent confessionalist last season, definitely top 5 after looking at them all, but I was still pretty new, and I want to spend more time making them more entertaining to read instead of just straight info of whats going on. That will be my goal confessional-wise if I get in."

**If you are an alumni, how do you plan on playing differently this time around?** "Ive kind of already went over this in my first couple of answers, but basically becoming a badass backstabber (what an alliteration) that is actually in control, not just following control like I did last season. I dont think i was a total goat last season, but I was sort of pushing that direction, so I want to make it so that when people ask what I was like at the end of the season, goat is the last word on their minds.

Plus, I hope to receive another idol. I hope to keep it for a while. But... Not make the dumbest possible move I ever could have done.

I need another chance, I wont let you down. I was for sure most robbed last season (even though it was mostly my fault), except maybe toon, so give me a chance to get... well, unrobbed. I love this org and will give my all if given another chance!"
