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."

Killarney Jones - Bios
Official SurvivorSA: Champions bio:
(None found.)
Official SurvivorSA: Return of the Outcasts M-Net bio (6/5/22):
"Killarney Jones has competed in martial arts internationally from a young age and has black belts in various disciplines. She's climbed Kilimanjaro and has a degree in Fine Arts.
She grew up in a tight-knit family who travelled extensively throughout Africa. Killarney is tough and talkative, determined and dedicated and will fight to the bitter end.
When she competed in her previous season, she didn’t understand the game well and expected to power through on the back of her physical prowess – and was duly brought down by her neglect of the social and strategic aspects of the game. This time around, she understands the concept better and will still be looking to compete physically but will be bringing a softer touch to the social side of the game."
