Housemate Selection

I've had a few emails and messages from people begging to be put out of their misery re the whole timeline for selection process.

My information is that nobody has been called yet, and that potential housemates will not know if they've been successful for a few more weeks yet. My info was "possibly Easter!!!"

However, as with everything BB related, this could change at any time.

Also, the rumour that the house renovations have been delayed due to bad weather is completely untrue. The house is actually well on schedule.

Great. I'll have to sit by the phone for a few more weeks. SHIT!

KnowItAll said...

Nothing is set in stone here. It's a matter of deciding what type of house they want and with producers who keep changing their fucking minds, it's making the process more drawn out than it should be.
It's the blind leading the blind, I can assure you.

Knowitall, you're letting slip more than you should!! Beware! Big Brother is watching!

Steph, check your emails.

Fabbo said...

Great work DQ!

Anonymous, please don't take DQ's "for a few more weeks" as gospel, she is only using this as the latest for when BB producers let the cat out of the bag, the phone calls to successful auditionees can go out at any time within this week or the next week or even the week after that. When the promos start very soon, this is when the phone calls are likely to go out, though I am just theorising.

As for the house, well obviously not much has changed outside so most of the work is interior refitting, the rain is not likely to affect progress, and with that said the rainy weather has eased off a little which should help.

I believe we will know when the calls have gone out is when someone finally lets the cat out of the bag, that's most likely gonna be the case.

Steph said...

Anon1, Don't do that. Theres nothing you can do to influence it one way or another. Good luck though.

Knowitall, who are you????

Anon2, checked my mail and theres nothing.

Fabbo,well said.

Kylie said...

Did you see your mate TD got the sack from the forum?
Fucking hell Vibes is a knob! He should have sacked that Twisted idiot!

Who are all these anon people? lol

Fabbo said...

Well I'll be damned. They should of sacked lollies and twisted!

Steph said...

Look guys, I'm not having this blog become a BBBA bashing competition.
If you have a gripe with the place, take it to the admins.
It's still the best BB forum in Oz......currently anyway.

Kylie haven't they banned your arse yet? i'm gonna tell Dave to ban you hahaha.

You Know Me said...

Where else can we voice our opinion about the place without getting banned??

Fabbo said...

Look Steph, none of us are trying to bash BBBA, in fact I do think it's the best BBAU forum at the moment, but the amount of shit going on in there is of high concern, one which many want to voice their opinion on but are too afraid they'll be shut down because of it. This is falling on deaf ears with the admins, who keep telling people to piss off (basically).

Steph said...

I understand completely but I'd rather focus on BB08 than what happens over there. I'm no longer in a position to do anything about it.

Fabbo said...

Agree with you completely. :-)

Steph said...

P.S to the people giving me an absolute REAMING over on that BB chaos forum, I will accept all your apologies when I'm proven right, yet AGAIN!
*le sigh*

I had never even heard of this forum beforebbut welcome another BB related fansite into the mix.

Anonymous said...

You're too diplomatic, they're a bunch of wankers who only get their info from official sources!

Let the two forums war it out and kill each other off I say.
They're both as fucked as each other.

Steph said...

OKAY! enough with the forum bashing/mod bashing, whatever!!

If you have a problem take it to those involved. I won't be publishing anymore of these type of comments.

Anonymous said...

Steph, stick to your guns. The information you have is correct and it's not your fault that this production is not set in stone and changes will continue to be made throughout.
Do not listen to those that seek to discredit you. They have only a handful of people who listen to them where as you have hundreds.

Anonymous said...

I can't beleive they got rid of toiletduck. ok she could be a bitch, but at least she did shit around the place instead of just being there to hit on chicks like lollies or make racist posts and get away with it like twisted

Steph said...

Anon1, they tell me it's not "personal" but they are straight up calling me a liar and I take great offence to that. What a vicious little circle of clowns they are. I was nothing but polite and sincere and they continue shat on me because I DARE to post information I have.

Their inferiority complex over BBBA is quite pathetic really and I love how BBBA are keeping a dignified silence. Who's more professional do you think?

Anon2, TD isn't a bad person compared to some others, and she did actually DO things around the place, but please let that be the last word on these stupid, juvenile forum wars crappola!

FIN!

Anonymous said...

hi DQ,

your information has always proved correct so i believe you about calls going out and your site is my number one point of reference now!

peoples opions are not what i look at forums for it is inside information and 'exclusives' of which you always seem to come up with the goods, congrats on a job well done.

you seem a person of good integrity and i applaud you at the way you have handled this forum melodrama.

thnx DQ

on big brother chaos they are know saying that the calls have definatley gone out people like the one and ridge rogue have said and they said they did go out on the 28th i dont know they were contradicitng it b4 saying they didnt go out and now they are saying they are? what do you think. to me it makes more sense that they wouldnt have called becuase of the later starting date they would call later otherwise we would know for two months and that is too long

Anonymous said...

one person said they had emailed bigbrother they had an email from big brother and responded and they said the calls have gone out but you know I doubt they would even say that cus u think they would want it confidential still what do you say?

Steph said...

Anon1, thank for that! i don't profess to be right every time though. As someone else who works for ESS commented above, the producers seem to keep changing their minds.

Anon2, they have no idea! Earlier on they STATED on the 10th of Feb that promos will be starting within seven days of that date.
So where are they?
In that same thread some halfwit says " you'd think the so called insiders would know what the theme is".
Um NO! The theme, promo's are closely guarded secrets between the BB producers, TEN and the advertisers. Anyone who leaked that kind of info would be found out because only a handful know about it amd probably sacked.

As for the calls going out. The information I have is that NO they have not. If that information is wrong, so be it. It's what I have at this time.

Boombala said...

That forum is pitiful. Nobody takes anything said on there seriously, they should be embarrassed to be wasting bandwidth like that.
Bunch of jealous jokers.

They got NUTHIN!

Steph said...

BB chaos is full of LIARS. There is no way in hell anyone from ESS would tell them anything!
Anything they say is pure speculation and you know how I KNOW they have no inside information? Because nobody working for ESS or TEN worth their salt would make such a statement.

They obviously have never dealt with any "insider" because such people have to be very careful about what information they give out, for fear of losing their job.

I have no idea why BB chaos is so obsessed with me and what I say. If they don't believe a word of this blog, then fine, nobody is holding a gun to their heads forcing them to read this.

Their inferiority complex is just getting laughable now.
I don't want to discuss them anymore. If you have a question for me, email me.

I'm not playing their tit for tat game anymore. It's just about getting people to visit their forum.

Anonymous said...

totally agree that no calls have been made, if producers havent made up their mind on what kind of bb they are running with then they cant know 100% of the hm's they want.

kepp trekkin DQ

Kylie said...

ohmygod! I just went over there and laughed my arse off.
THAT is supposed to be THE big brother forum???

All 65 members?? Too funny. You get more comments on your blogs than they have MEMBERS.

Don't even give them a second thought.

Animal2 said...

Can't you see that what they're doing is just trying to drum up members?

Don't refer to them again, let them do the hard yards to get members rather than swinging on the coat tails of this blog and BBBA.

Jimbob said...

That forum has lost all credibilitiy. THE ONE, who shall be henceforth known as THE DICKHEAD, says, and I quote "The answer is YES! RR has told me that people were indeed called after all. Auditionees that contact ESS will be informed about the situation and they'll be warned not to discuss it"

Riiiight! So how come NOTHING has been leaked? At least ONE person would say something, especially if they missed out. ESS would have no control over those they dismiss!
I'm still waiting for the promos that RR said would start this week.

And they have the nerve to doubt YOU??

Laughable!

Steph said...

Anon1, Thank you.

Kylie, I wasn't going to post anymore forum bashing but seeing as how they see fit to bash me, I'll let the comments come.

Animal2, they need all the members they can get. If it wasn't for the BBBA mods going over there to have a look at the "competition" they'd lose another six!

Jimbob, They pick me apart yet they totally contradict themselves over and over.

Anon2, and it's not even the BB season yet! Nobody can compete with BBBA, and from I hear about the new changes, nobody will.

Anonymous said...

I'm a member of BBBA's forum and I still think that the OS will be better than that and that new forum people are bagging here just because it's new. That new forum, fair go to them, it allows guests to post so member numbers aren't worth criticising but those fogures will rise during BB I would say. Either way, no stupid little blog like this or fansite like those will have a million unique visitors a day like the OS.

I see you get bagged at BBBA all the time. I personally think you're a liar and a disgrace for insulting the public's intelligence like you do. Get a life and a real site instead of bludging off BBBA and other sites to get attention.

Just because you can't compete with BBBA, the OS and other sites and forums, doesn't mean you need to bag them or people that don't agree with anything you say. That's their right to disagree.

And I hear that you are a boong. Figures!

Anonymous said...

yes well i really hope you are righht becuase how silly will they look! a t least we guess we dont say we know

Steph said...

Anon1, You are a disgrace to humanity. You are a puss filled boil on the anus of society. Do the world a favour and top yourself. STAT.
As for my "stupid little blog". I probably get more hits than those twats and I clearly get more comments. Go figure.
Get a life you say? At least I don't hide behind an anonymous keyboard to sling shit. Is your dick as small as your brains? I won't ask about your balls cos you clearly do not have any.
You will won't be commenting here again.
I'm not competing with anyone you gormless asshat! And thanks for making the boong remark. Just goes to prove what a braindead goink you are.

Anon2,slink back to that abomination you call a forum. I have never ONCE said that I know it all. I don't, and if my information is proven wrong, i'm quite prepared to cop that on the chin.

Be gone you pair of slimy trolls!
*Poof*

Realitybitme said...

If those two anons are the type of members that forum has, I'm glad I didn't join.

Anonymous said...

so miss DQ i hear the calls are coming this week? i trust your info, just wondering what the latest was.

thanky you.

Steph said...

Anon, I was told two different things as the situation keeps changing. You have to understand that the show is still very much in the planning stages, which makes it hard for my insider to pin anything down. The last info I had was "possibly around Easter". All I can tell you for sure is that NO calls have gone out yet.

i wish I could put a definite time on it but I can't, I can only relay what was told to me.

If I'm wrong, and the calls go out this week, then good, I'm glad, cos I'm a bit over the whole debate to be frank with you.

Anonymous said...

thanks buddy! im sure those waiting feel the same way you do!

thanks!

GG stands for Gimpy Gronk!

KnowItAll said...

A word of advice for those that do make it through.
Do not think you can get away with posting even a tidbit of info on any forum or blog

Candidates were all asked different things, and went through different process'. So they will be easily identifiable if they reveal certain things.

M said...

the bba forums are still running? oh lordy I have too much goss to catch up on!

Anonymous said...

I just don't grasp how some people don't understand the meaning of the word "rumours", which inevitably have a hit and miss ratio, but usually the info posted here and elsewhere is done so in good faith, in the firm knowledge it might not happen.


And that other place really is pathetic - they keep bagging your "insider" and claim they are the only ones to be trusted as they get the words from an "official source" which is never named, never quoted and nothing more than an "insider" by a different name.

The only difference is your "insider" actually exists and has been proven right time after time after time in the last 12 months

Steph said...

Anon1, You're welcome.

Gretel's Luva, What in the hell is a GG?

KnowItAll, be careful or you may be outted as my fictional insider!!

Mez, You're missing out on so much fuckwittery. Seriously!

Anon2, Thank you so much. I was starting to reconsider this whole dealio. Is it really worth all the hate and bitching??

KnowItAll said...

Big meetings currently taking place in Sydney.
Decisions should be made soon.

Anonymous said...

hey DQ, just curious, when you say that no calls have been made does that mean that they havent done psych/medical tests yet or do you mean that no further calls have been made after the psych/medical tests...better phrasing for my question is: have the called anyone about anything since the apparent group audtions?

Steph said...

KnowItAll, thanks for that.

Anon, I really don't know how the whole process works, i'm just giving you the info that was given to me. I'm doing the best I can to get the answers you want.
