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."

George Mladenov - Bios
Official Ten AU: Brains v Brawn bio excerpts (July 11, 2021):
"A self-described ‘spin-doctor for the government’, Labor Party President George believes his whole career has been preparing him for the game of Australian Survivor. Cunning, an expert negotiator and a master manipulator, this high achiever will stop at nothing to make it to the final Tribal Council."
Official Ten AU: Heroes v Villains bio excerpts (December 22, 2022):
"If you thought King George was returning for redemption, you’d be wrong. This time, it’s George the Terrible.
As runner up to Hayley in Australian Survivor: Brains V Brawn, George is back and badder than ever. He says, “I’ve left Bankstown, I’ve come out here to Samoa to take back what’s rightfully mine - the crown that Hayley stole from me. I’m not coming to Samoa for redemption, I’m coming back for salvation and as a pure Villain.”
Admitting he has both heroic and villainous qualities, George is returning for the title and the prize money and thinks playing the dark side is the only way to get there. He says, “Last time I saved people, I played as a Hero and my family still doesn’t have much money. I’m coming back to change my family’s life.
Since leaving the Outback, George went straight to the gym and has been training hard to play a bigger part in the physical challenges but it’s the social and mental game that he is most excited about.
George says, “I’m so excited that it’s Heroes against the Villains this time. Last time I was on the Brains tribe, with no smart people! But I can’t wait to get into the thick of it with a tribe of 12 Villains. Villains are more cutthroat. Villains are willing to do what it takes to get the job done.”"
