Sue Smey - Performance ranks
Tribal: VFB% percentile

Tribal: rVAP percentile
N/A
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."

Sue Smey - Bio
Survivor 47 bio Official CBS Survivor 47 bio excerpts, (September 4, 2024), as preserved by Mike Bloom at Parade.com:
"Three words to describe you: Badass, fearless, adrenaline junkie
Why do you want to be part of Survivor? It has been a lifelong dream since the very first episode. I’m a competitor and want to see how I hold up under the most exciting adventure in my life. I want to be pushed to my limits. What a thrill. I WANT THE TITLE. I want to be a legend.
What’s one life experience you feel has prepared you for the game? I grew up spending my summers on an island with generations of family. We were poor, no drinking water, no hot showers, no heat. Had to schlep to the water well with jugs for water, jump in the river to bathe, start a fire for cold days. Grandparents only had an outhouse. This experience is far worse, but I have an idea of what to expect. Which previous player do you identify with the most? Who do you think you will play most like? Tony. I feel like I will be a combo of Tony and Cirie.
What will you value in an alliance partner? We all know alliances are only temporary so I’m not expecting much from anyone. We are all going to lie to each other. As a teammate, I’m hoping to learn a new language, maybe to dance, maybe learn about someone’s cultural or spiritual beliefs.
Favorite hobbies: Racket ball, tennis, snow skiing, ice skating, building stone fireplaces, making mantles or wood columns.
Pet peeves: “One-uppers,” people who talk too much about stuff that no one cares about (can’t read the room), energy drainers. People who are only negative and complain all the time.
What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? Packing my bags, $20 to my name, and leaving a toxic, dysfunctional, abusive environment at 21 years old. That’s when my life truly began.
What is something we would never know from looking at you? I’m a sigma female. An introvert. I thrive to be a champion, but I don’t want the pat on the back. I believe I am powerful, but I treat people with kindness and humility. I will always defend the underdog, even if I don’t know them. I love to live life and all it has to offer. I love the bad as much as the good because that’s where I grow as a person.
...
Why will you be the Sole Survivor? Because I’m a badass. I’m not afraid of anything or anyone. I will take the lead and follow my gut. I will take out the threats and work on manipulating the others to do what I suggest. They will see following me will help to get them far and all will respect how I played."
