Hey Eliza! Could u pleaseee answer these crazy question
1. What really happens when Jeff P. goes to "tally" the votes? What do u guys see when u look at the voting booth when he is gone?
2. Can u explain what really happens when a confessional is being shot? How is the location of the confessional setting selected?
3. Has there ever been a situation where the castaways are all together and a producer comes up and says "Eliza, we need you for a confessional!"?

4. What happens if someone refuses to give a confessional?

5. Do you have any paranoia about being overheard by other castaways when u r giving a confessional? How are the producers sure that another castaway doesn't walk in on u giving a confessional? Is it a cameraman who asks u the questions or is it someone standing next to the cameraman?

6. If a castaway wins an individual immunity challenge but forgets to bring the immunity necklace to tribal council, do you think that they are not immune from being voted out?

7. During the intro theme song, there is a motion shot of each castaway and then there is a still shot. When is this still shot taken? And do they tell u that the shot being taken is for the intro song?

8. Were the voted out contestants more secluded this time around when compared to Vanuatu?

9. Were u surprised to learn that this was one of the least spoiled seasons ever? Especially since the season had returning contestants?

10. At the semifinals in LA, are all the selected contestants taken to a secret location and told all together that they are the selected players for next season?

11. Once u leave Ponderosa for the airport to return to the USA, are u guys not allowed to talk to each other? Is there a point where the contestants are totally separated and are not allowed to even sit next to each other?

12. I know this sound crazy but when u guys get back home, are u given a hotline number to call incase u have like a breakdown or something?

13. Are the jury members given access to a computer? If not, how do you guys recharge your ipods?

14. What did Jeff P. tell the favorites when you arrived on the beach on Day 1? Did you guys go and stand on the mat? Did he tell you guys that it was Fans Vs. Faves?

Sorry if I sound like an interrogating freak asking you all these questions! I am just a curious Survivor fanatic who has zero chance of getting on the show!

Eliza, could you please answer these question when you get time?

1. When Jeff goes to "tally" the votes, we just sit there and are on a strict "gag order" - no talking. We don't see anything in the voting booth.

2. Over the course of each episode, we each do at least one long confessional. We're told to go with the producer and brought to an area where one of the filming crews has set up a good spot for us to interview. I don't know how the location is chosen, but it's always somewhere a little bit away from where everyone is and it's pretty. ☺

3. Yes. Often situations arise where the castaways are all together and a producer comes up and says "Eliza, we need you for a confessional!"

4. You cannot refuse to give a confessional.

5. I was paranoid about a lot of things, but not really about being overheard by other castaways when I was giving a confessional. The producers have walkie talkies and if someone is coming they will radio to the other person to stop. A producer, standing next to the cameraman asks the questions.

6. You can't forget to bring the immunity necklace to tribal council because someone (i.e. a producer) would remind you before you left.

7. The still shot is taken somewhere in the first three days. And yes, they do tell us that the shot being taken is for the intro song.

8. Yes, the voted out contestants were more secluded this time around compared to Vanuatu.

9. I was shocked to learn that this was one of the least spoiled seasons ever, especially since the season had returning contestants. I always like it when people don't have a full boot list at the beginning of the season and have to work a little harder to figure out what's going to happen next.

10. First of all, semifinals are in your "home city." In LA, we have finals. Second of all, your question makes no sense. They would NEVER tell us all at once b/c then we'd know who would be there. They do everything possible to make sure we never see each other let alone speak to each other or have any idea who is going to be selected. They don't want us to find out til we get to the island. So, no.

11. Once we leave Ponderosa for the airport to return to the USA, we can do whatever we want. Prior to the game, we cannot.

12. We have the number for the show doctor.

13. No computer access. There are wall chargers.

14. You saw what we did. We were called out one by one having no idea who was out there.
