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."

Khanh Ong - Bio
SAU 7 logo  AU: Blood v Water bio

Official Ten AU: Blood v Water bio excerpts (January 24, 2022):

"Khanh says: “There is no strategy from either of us going in. We want to have some fun and see what happens. We’re both very social people so we’ll rely on that, we both find it easy to make friends.”

What is your biggest fear on Survivor? Not making it to at least Tribal Council. I want to experience the entire game. I want to do it all. I want to orchestrate blindsides, I want to find Idols, I want to use advantages and make dumb decisions.

What food/indulgence will you miss the most? Salt, flavour, options, yum cha, chili oil. Mainly my chili oil."
