Tribal: rVAP percentile
88%
Performance ranks are a quick visual measure of the contestant's season vs. historical data from all prior contestants, in three basic (scorable) categories:
1. Performance in individual challenges (MPF), as a measure of "physical game";
2. Ability to vote people out consistently (VFB%, or VFB/TCA), or "strategic game"; and
3. Ability to avoid being voted against (rVAP, or TCA-VAP) - which scales better than a percentage would - for "social/strategic game."

Hayden Moss - Bio
S27:
Blood vs. Water From his (and Kat's) pre-game interview with EW's Dalton Ross:
"'There's a target on my back from the get-go,' says Kat's loved one. That's because boyfriend Hayden has already emerged victorious on a CBS reality competition show — only that show was Big Brother. It will be interesting to see how his game translates from inside the house to outside in Mother Nature. Also interesting to see is whether the Survivor: One World lover of margaritas has matured this time around. 'I think the one thing I've learned a lot after that season is to listen,' says Kat. 'Listen more than I speak. I didn't know anything about Survivor when I played the first time, and I got to the final seven. And I don't know if anyone noticed, but that's pretty good. So the fact that I didn't know anything about the game and got pretty far might come to my advantage this time because now I know how to play.'"
From his (and Kat's) official CBS bio page:
"Occupation: Real Estate
Personal Claim to Fame: Winning Big Brother 12.
Inspiration in Life: My Grandpa - he is the best person I know and someday I hope to be as cool as him.
Hobbies: Snowboarding, working out and traveling.
Pet Peeves: Wrinkly clothes.
3 Words to Describe You: Athletic, popular and respectful.
If You Could Have 3 Things on The Island What Would They Be and Why? I would bring my Ipod because music makes everything better and a surfboard. I really need to learn how to surf.
Why You Think You’ll “Survive” Survivor: I have already played and won a game very similar to Survivor.
What Does It Mean to You to Play Survivor with Your Loved One? Survivor is the adventure of a lifetime, and being able to share that adventure with someone I love is amazing! I can't wait to compete with or against Kat, and watch our relationship grow!"
