They were discussing how they have to be careful because ousted HGs will see what they've said. Then they proceeded to discuss how they will be the final three and will easily get rid of Lisa and Chiara. Oh, and that Tonya is not part of their final six??

I was under the impression based on HG comments that they are to be sequestered after eviction. I wonder how much the producers will control information they have access to.

I don't think anyone is gonna confuse this group with a Rocket Scientist convention

It won't take a video tape to piss someone off. The second these women are eliminated they will realize what has happened to them. However, I still don't believe the game will go the way they are thinking it will. What they percieve in the beginning never turns out in the end. HOH is pure luck!

Were they sequestered last year? If they are sequestered then they have to make their choice based on what they observed while in the house.

That just doesn't seem right. Am I right?

They have access to all after they leave cause they go home till they are called back for the final show to make their votes. Remember Hardy last year knew some of the antics Nicole did? Once out they are privvy to all because if they get online or talk to people that watch 24/7 they will know lots. ;o) This is part of the game none of them ever understand, by far Will still played the smartest of any at this game, IMO

No, they were not sequestered the first two years after being voted out.

No evicted HG is sequestered. All the Survivors are "stuck in paradise" during the game, not these hampsters.

Each of the evicted HG will even get to talk to each other before the final vote.

The name of the game is to bring someone to the final 2 with you that everyone else can't stand.

M knows this game better than these 3, and he is likely to be gone very soon.

I'm beginning to think the hampsters will start taking offense to comparisons with some of these HGs.

Maybe this group just misunderstands what happens afterwards. What they perceive as "sequestering" could very well just be 2 or 3 days of "detox" in a hotel while being able to talk to a shrink.

No sequestering after eviction. I remember seeing an interview with Brittany...she went out to dinner the night she was evicted and a table of people at the restaurant recognized her and they asked what she was doing there because she was supposed to be in the house. (They had missed that evening's live eviciton show). Brittany said she just siad "They evicted my ass!" signed a few autographs and had dinner.

Within hours of being evicted she already had access to folks that had watched the show.

I heard one of them say they were told sequestering was new to the game.

Well if that is the case Ryan, they would have to continue paying them by the week wouldnt they? Last year they made like 750 a week, I could handle that plus they pay for their food and lodging. I heard Marcellas Tell Amy this morning that if he is first out he will be first to be giving interviews and stuff so when they were talking, they said nothing of being sequestured the whole time.

Where are they going to hole them up for 3 months- they would have to hole them up a LOT longer than they did with the Survivor people (only about half are sequestered and their votes are more frequent than once per week). I just don't see them paying to put these people on a boat off of LA until September ot August or whenever this show is done, and they sure can't hold them captive in a hotel for that long. That would be worse than being in the house!

really....? that would interesting. Then even the losers would have to stay in "prison" somewhere out of view for the rest of the game.

I know in Survivor, that when Stacey (I think it was her) was voted off third, she spent the remaining time touring Malaysia or something. She just couldn't go home or contact her family, or it would be known that she came home early, giving away the fact she didn't win.

I remember Burnett talking about the hell everyone had to go through to keep their mouths shut for all that time while the game (that had already been fully played) was airing on tv. That's why they changed the final vote into a live show.

But Survivor doesn't pay for the first people off (the non-jury) while they're still there, do they? Either way, I'd rather do that. Plus even if they do pay, at the end it's only around day 45 or so isn't it? They're out of the country so it wouldn't be as hard to keep them from knowing what's happening. Plus they couldn't see what was happening because the shows don't air until later.

I just don't see how they could do it that way for this show.

I think the Survivor folks got a lot more money, plus accomodations while out of the country. They had to keep them ALL out of the country until the game was done filming. Even the non-jury guys would be kept out of sight, otherwise lots of people would know that the first five (non jury members) came home within a few days after the game started, not 39 days!

Also, Survivor is only 39 days or so...it's a lot easier to keep people tucked away in a tropical resort for a month than to keep people in the US hidden away with no access to tv, papers, or loved ones for up the three months...

A friend of mine worked with Stacey from the first Survivor...I think he said she got about $4500 and she was the third one voted off (about 9 days into the game)...not bad for 9 days work!

If you consider the millions of dollars invested in the production of the BigBrother show then you would realize that the task of sequestration would not be an insurmountable task in effort, logistics or expense.

A few years ago I worked on two scientific projects involving some research and development, both of which were highly secretive and involved technology which was not wanted to be leaked prior to completion. Any news of what we were doing could have resulted in serious economic consequences (for the investing company). A group of more than 20 technical people set up work facilities on remote resort (exclusive beachfront cottages) locations, first in Saint Croix in the Virgin Islands, and again a few years later on Bali (Java, an Indonesian Island). We were in each location for several months each time.

We had a lot of fun, and had no television except video, and very limited (monitored) phone conversations back to the mainland US. A few of us had visitors from time to time; some opted not to. It went quite well. Every participant agreed that those few months of remote enjoyment were a blast. Everyone else signed up to do it again, but I moved on to other things, and didn't participate the third time.

Therefore, from personal experience, I know such a sequestration is quite doable, and very easy to execute. If I were the producer of BigBrother and I felt like sequestration was important, I would not hesitate to create a facilty that would satisfy all participants and ensure the success of the project.

Sequestering?
How?
The evictees would not even have the human contact they have in the house?
That would be like prison, even in some ways worse.
Maybe if they sent them on an extended world wide cruise or mountain trek with a BB babysitter and no contact, but sequestering would be inhuman
