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."

Tiffany Ervin - Bios

Official CBS Survivor 46 bio excerpts, as published by Dalton Ross at EW.com (February 5, 2024):

"Name three of your favorite hobbies: Painting/photography, Does eating out count as a hobby?

List three adjectives that best describe yourself: Curious, passionate, artistic

How would your friends describe you? My friends always tell me that I live in a land of rainbows and unicorns. (Which pretty much means I lack situational awareness sometimes and see things from a rose-colored lens, even when I shouldn’t. I disagree though, lol.) I’m a habitual procrastinator. My friends also know that I’m deeply dedicated to and passionate about the things and people I love. I have absolutely no filter (this sometimes gets me into trouble) and I am usually the life of the party.

What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? I was laid off [from] my job of six years at the top of 2020 and instead of scrambling to find another job that I likely wouldn’t have been happy with, I had the courage to follow my gut and pursue being a full-time artist instead. So far things have been working out even better than I expected.

What is something we would never know from looking at you? I love, love, love playing the lottery, lol. I’m actually afraid that if there’s an opportunity to gamble or take a big chance on Survivor, I’m the player that won’t be able to resist.

What past Survivor would you play the game most like? Jeremy or Shan"

Official CBS Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans cast bio excerpts, as published by Mike Bloom at Parade.com (January 28, 2026):

"Why do you want to come back for Survivor 50 and how does it feel to be chosen for this milestone season? Being chosen for season 50 is an honor, and an opportunity that I do not take for granted. There were hundreds of amazing people that could’ve been chosen. And yet, here I am. It’s a blessing. And I want to come back and play a game that’s rooted in trusting myself above all else. A game I can be proud of.

What one life experience since the last time you played do you feel has prepared you for 50? A few months ago I made the decision to move to LA after basically living in NJ my whole life. The entire move was planned and executed on my own in two weeks. If I can do that, I can do anything, truly. Lol.

Coming into this season, what is the Survivor accomplishment you are most proud of? And what are you eager to have another shot at? Ironically they are both the same thing. Lol. I’m so proud of the risk I took and the way I found the idol on day 2. This time around, I’d like to find another one and ACTUALLY play it correctly, or at all for that matter. Lol.

What would you say is your Survivor reputation and how will you manage that perception in the game? If I had to guess, I’d say that people might think I’m a good strategist, always speak what’s on my mind, and a bit too trusting. To be honest, I don’t think I need to manage any of these perceptions. They’re all things I can use to my advantage if I play my cards right.

What is your strategy going into 50? And how will it differ from previous time(s) you’ve played? My strategy going into 50 is to play each day like the next one doesn’t exist. Because all that matters is LASTING another day. Last time I spent so much time focusing on the days ahead that I missed what was right in front of me. I won’t let that happen again.

Survivor fans have had the opportunity to help shape the game this season by voting on various elements – what are you hoping makes the cut and why? I would LOVE the opportunity to play Simmotion and to be a part of the LIVE reunion. I’ve been watching the show for years and I’ve always wanted to attend the Live reunion. If the first time I get to go, I’m a part of the cast?? ICONIC.

At this point in your life who is your biggest inspiration and why? I think my older sister will forever and always be my biggest inspiration. She’s the epitome of grace and mental fortitude. Even in the most insane situations she’s level-headed and a force to be reckoned with.

Why will you be the Sole Survivor? This is a heavy question, but I have a pretty simple answer….I’m God’s favorite. Lol."
