[QUOTE=V1man;22179]I don't know of any, but that is not something a cast member is going to boast about. I do know that at least two of the Fresh Meat cast were almost used during earlier RW/RR seasons. I don't have permission from those people to disclose their names, however. When I'm told something in confidence, it stays that way.[/QUOTE]
Why not? What are they afraid of anyway? I'm pretty sure I know whom they are...

Well, good for you, I guess, if you know who they are.
The MTV challenges are cutthroat and always brutal psychologically. You never give an opponent an advantage beforehand, especially not by giving them any ammunition to allow someone to say in a challenge interview that you were a "loser" and an only an "afterthought" on their season of RW or RR. It's clearly just stupid game play. It is not a matter of being "afraid."
[QUOTE=renaldob;22279]well they are afterthoughts now but if they were on a season then that wouldn't happen. Its not like Coral is reading the boards.[/QUOTE]
I read the above five times and still don't understand the first sentence.
As for the second sentence, Coral is retired; but, that aside, I know of at least 12 people who are eligible for the challenges who have been at this site in the past month. I don't know of any other site other than iamonmtv.com so frequently visited by MTV castmembers. Most love this one and hate MTV's. Can't blame them for having good taste.

Then why don't they post here? It should be in their contracts, lol and is much easier to ban those who decide to be idiots. :drinks:
[quote=renaldob;22283]KT that was mean.[/quote]
No, I wasn't being mean. I was just pointing out that it's very hard to figure out what you're talking about because you hardly ever quote the post you're responding to. That's all...
[quote=renaldob;22284]Then why don't they post here? It should be in their contracts, lol and is much easier to ban those who decide to be idiots. :drinks:[/quote]
BTW, I agree. I wish they would post! Some of them are hilarious and I'd love to have their witty commentary here...

The recent RW and challenge contracts do require their involvement at iamonmtv.com which is why some hate it. In the past, they have also been actively encouraged not to post at other websites or to use myspace or facebook to comment about the shows.

well it's too late for that. There are several cast members giving their feedback, regarding their shows, on other websites. POPULAR websites at that. I can give you exact links to some cast members video blogging certain things about MTV and the production,etc.

That is what happens when corporate strong-arm tactics fail. Vision 1 has been involved for some time with several who refused to stop posting elsewhere in favor of MTV's own sites. Beth, for example, continued to post her challenge episode commentaries on myspace and simply later copied the same ones to iamonmtv.com. It didn't stop MTV from calling to complain, not that it did them any good.

& more power to her, as far as i'm concerned.
I don't blame her at all for doing that... I'd feel much more comfortable posting something somewhere where I am able to say whatever I want to say, you know? I'd bet the Mtv blogs get read and revised by a few people before getting posted.

None of Beth postings at iamonmtv.com were ever altered, but I can't speak for other MTV cast members.
[quote=SassyChic;22491]The top 5 places for the RW 22 have been picked (not in order):
Phoenix
New Orleans
Atlanta
Orlando
Washington DC
.....any reactions???[/quote]
Can you point us to your source?
[quote=good brooklyn;22488]V1: how do i find beth's myspace page? I'd actually be interested in seeing an un-edited beth.[/quote]
[URL="http://www.myspace.com/bethstolarczyk"]Myspace: Beth Stolarczyk[/URL]
It is a little out of date since she has been preoccupied with a wedding now just 18 days away.
[quote=V1man;22559]I'd hold off the celebration until we get a source...
I've seen no such list[/quote]
I agree. And why would they consider New Orleans again when the other cities listed are ones they've never used before. Meh.
[quote=maybeshesright;22565]the list is on realworlddailies.com
it doesn't look like anything official though; it's just a poll with 6 cities for people to vote on.[/quote]
Well in that case, nix Orlando too. Florida is overdone! They've already done 2 there. Something new please.

Wow, as of this moment, 41 total votes have been cast.
I know MTV does not take such input seriously.
