The hgs have talked several times about possibly being sequestered, we don't have any proof that they will (guess we will find out soon), but it seems obvious that the possibility was mentioned to them before the show began.

next q?

I am still pretty new to this posting stuff. Can someone tell me how to change the preview post message thing? I want to turn it off.

Click on the "profile" link at the top of the page

login

choose the "preferences" link at the top of the profile page.

work your way through what you want... the box called "Skip the preview screen when posting" is the one you want to check.

at the bottom of that area is the "save" button, click it (there are save buttons for different areas, make sure you hit the right one).

thats it.

I think sequestering would take away from the BB because part of what makes it interesting is when folks get out and find out how they were lied to and betrayed. Part of THIS game is that you can't just get away from it. Sure wish BB would stop looking to other shows for how it should act and what it should do and invent some of their own twists.

Of course maybe Arnie just said this to mess with their minds and make them think they are safe without fear of their actions coming back to haunt them. (and then having that be a lie). Sounds like our boy AS to me.

I have a question, I keep reading that everyone has Eric and Lisa in bed on Cam 1 since Saturday. So the feed is broken. Has anyone called RealOne to complain? What did they say?

I haven't seen that, although they are in bed quite a bit at night.

my feed 1 is FOTH, but I've seen other stuff than Eric and Lisa on it too

Robbien - its not 24x7 - some people have said though that at times they see a clip running (of Eric and Lisa sleeping in bed), implying that REAL or CBS is showing taped stuff, which is kinda NOT what they are claiming to do ;)

Then again they keep hyping 4 feeds and we all know that for BB II & now III its just 2 feeds at most with 2 camera views of each.

I have seen them sleeping together a few times since the weekend...not the first time real has been caught showing tapes...yesterday someone said it was skipping LOL!

New Topic...

so...everyone votes the night before eviction night (so they can get the family there)...if we watch live feeds can we tell who gets booted (even though the answer is pretty clear this week)????

Crazy - Not according to the rulebook, discussing who you voted for is forbidden (at least that's my interpretation of it.) plus I'm sure we'll get plenty of FFD.

OK, I got a question thats slightly stupid since I have had the live feeds for all three seasons of BB. When they do the live show, do we get FOTH until it is over?

Ryanc2002

Wednesday, July 17, 2002 - 01:22 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
So people will watch it on TV instead of online, plus Julie talks to them during breaks. They didn't go chicken cam during the fanale of BB1 and she was chatting it up with them

LOL Ryanc2002
I heard Josh ask if anyone wanted to discuss their vote!

I was catching up on the feed transcripts and could have sworn that whenever anyone did a general cam update it was always Cam1: Eric and Lisa in bed.

Thanks everyone. This is a great thread!

!st season of BB we say all competitions and even the live feeds during the show ("phantom menace" would always come on and log the live show from the feed perspective)

Last year we were blocked from the Nominations, the HoH competition, and the Live show.

But we did get to see the food challenges (and I think the luxury challenge)

This year we have been blocked from the Veto challenge (which is a new thing)

Not sure if the veto challenge is when the weekly meeting happens - or if its at a nother time (where they ask for certain foods and the 2 noms get to say something if they want).

This isn't really important at all. But, What does Gerry's shirt say? I can't get a good look at it.

This is a small question but its been bugging me. Did they move the door to the back yard?

Robbien

Oh Cassandra, I know the answer to that one. Its "If you can read this thank a teacher".

Thanks! I thought it would be something interesting. LOL I don't know about the door being moved.

How does Tonya lie on her stomach to sun bathe with those large breasts? It looks painful!

It seems like throughout the boards, from a number of the posters, there is almost a venomous attitude directed at Arnold Shapiro personally. I am curious as to why? We don't all love everything about the show, but we're clearly rather dedicated to it, and isn't his production company part of the reason BB didn't get cancelled after BB1 or BB2? If not for his production company, would we even have a BB to watch at all this year? Isn't he just part of the process and responding to what the network wants BB to be? What did Mr. Shapiro personally do to earn such scorn across the board? Whatever it was, I completely missed it, and now I am really confused!

Katrina, many are upset for three main reasons that all boil down to one thing. When he took over BB from Endemol, 1) he removed the audience voting, 2) started charging for the Live Feeds, and 3) eliminated the banner-factor.

All three of these big changes have alienated the fan base of Big Brother. The Internet viewers are pretty much (IMO) why the show did even as well as it did the first year and a big reason why they brought it back. The first year, we were a HUGE HUGE factor in the show/game. Since he took over, we are nothing but watchers who pay for feeds where we get the FOTH faster than Chiara can say "Silverstein". :)
