Tribal: rVAP percentile
78%
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."

Lauren Rimmer - Bio
S35: Heroes v Healers v Hustlers Excerpts from her official CBS Heroes v. Healers v. Hustlers bio page (8/30/17):
"Hobbies: Softball, traveling, and gardening. And anything to do with a boat.
What's your personal claim to fame? My daughter. She is determined, smart, and my driving force.
Who or what is your inspiration in life? My mother is my hero because I have seen her struggle my entire life to make sure that I had everything I needed. She has taught me to be a strong, independent woman with morals and a high determination to overcome any struggle that may come my way.
If you could have three things on the island, what would they be and why? First would be a picture of my daughter to have determination every day. Next would be a toothbrush because I want clean teeth. And finally, sunglasses for comfort since I wear them every day. I am in the sun all day and my eyes cannot take the constant exposure.
Which Survivor contestant are you most like? None of them. I always try to do things differently than other people.
Why do you think you'll "survive" Survivor? I have always been a survivor and everything I have obtained was through perseverance, personal risk (through all climate and weather conditions), hard work and working with the public. I have always put myself on the line and always will."
