Ric smiled at being called smart, especially by someone as attractive as Estrea.<br/>"Thanks for the compliment. It helps to be smart in a survival contest. Anyways for us we basically have to outlast the other prey in terms of survival. But even then you're not guaranteed to win because you have to race over to a certain point to be claimed the winner. Though the preds are still around so it's pretty difficult. Also we have to raise a family or something like that. I'm not that interested in that, which is good because it's not necessary in order to win. In other words we're risking a lot by participating."
