David wrote:If confronted by a fellow castaway, what would your initial reaction be?
It would depend on the situation really. My instinct would tell me to approach the situation with a calm, rational mindset; however, I do get frustrated easily, and if people aren't listening to what I'm saying, my reaction would probably be a little less nice.
How would you like to be portrayed on the real show if you had the option?
I would like to be portrayed as realistically as possible. It would be cool for an audience to be able to witness my clumsy, lack-of-common-sense side, and my strategic, intelligent side. It a strange combination, but it works!
What style of game play do you most respect?
I tend to respect the games that are played to win the game... if that makes sense. If someone is actively trying to improve their placement, and not just clinging to the coattails of others, I respect them a lot more. Also, I have respect for those who don't get extremely personal with their decisions.
What is your strategy going into the game?
My strategy would be to lay low, and let the game come to me. I want to get out there and make all the decisions and tell everyone what to do, but that just isn't practical. I'll let others approach me with offers and make my ultimate decisions from there. As the game progresses, I would want to try and take a more proactive decision-making role. Lastly, I would just forge bonds with everyone so that I could secure a win!
David describes himself as strategic and intelligent as a lot of people do in their apps - but for once, it actually comes across like it's deserved self-assessment. I expect him to be one of the quieter members of Ovamba publicly, but one of those who fills their confessional with every last angle of any given situation. If he can remember that social game trumps all, he'll be fine. If however, he gets caught up in his own plans without allowing for the others on the tribe he could be in trouble early. Can he win? I'm not too sure. I feel like if he is to get far, it'll be thanks to something bigger that he's not the leader of. And that type of player can find it very hard to gain the respect of a Jury unless he can pull out some big moves in the endgame.
