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."

Nick Iadanza - Bios

Official Ten SurvivorAU: 2016 bio excerpts (September, 2016):

"There are Survivor super fans and then there is 28-year-old Nick. A high school English teacher from Adelaide, he has watched every episode of every series of the US version multiple times. Nick even had a Survivor-themed 21st birthday party.

Admitting he was a “blubbering mess” when he was told he would be a castaway, Nick says: “My goal is simply to win, at all costs. In every day life you don’t betray people, you don’t end people’s dreams, you don’t snatch a huge sum of money from their hands and stuff it in your own pocket. But that’s what Survivor is all about.

“I’m waiting to pull the trigger. That’s what makes a good castaway – someone who will pull the trigger and when the recoil hits you, you are ready to pull the trigger again.” Knowing it will be a whole new game competing, compared to watching it from his couch, Nick says one of the highlights of the whole experience will be watching it on television with his family and he hopes to make them proud.

“I have had Survivor nights for years with my fiancée, sisters and dad. We always watch together and cheer on our favourites, so it will be that times 1,000 when I am playing. We have a group chat where we discuss strategy and even have Survivor fantasy polls every season. My whole family are huge fans.”

Nick wants to do it for his mother who passed away a few years ago. Survivor was their weekly ritual and he says: “I would sit at my Mum’s feet in the lounge room and she would tell me how good I would be at the challenges, even though we both knew I was a skinny little runt. So I am doing it for me, but I am also doing it for her.”"

Official Ten SurvivorAU: All-Stars bio excerpts (February 3, 2020):

"In the real world, Nick is a sweet school teacher and new dad. But in Australian Survivor, he is the original snake and villain from the first season.

Acknowledging his role in the series, Nick said: “I’m Nick the snake. I know that and I love it. I’m a loud mouth and I think I was one of the few real players in the first season, who wanted to play.”

Leaving a new born baby at home was the biggest challenge Nick faced in coming back. But, the chance to return as an All Star was too good for this superfan to ignore. “I have a baby daughter and I am leaving her. I feel like a terrible father because I might miss so many milestones. But it’s all for her, she needs that $500k! I ticked off so many things on my Australian Survivor Bucket List last time, but I couldn’t not do it.

“I have to get that huge trophy blindside. I have to win Individual Immunity. I have to make good alliances and most importantly, I need to make it to a single digit placement – hopefully one!”

While he may have settled into being a Dad and even admitting the greatest thing he’ll miss is the heat bag he sleeps with, the devious Nick is still in there. He’s thrilled to see so many game players come through the ranks after his time and wants to play with people like AK, David and Sarah Tilleke."
