Whats the difference between a housemate and an intruder?

and why were the webmates housemates...but these new 3 are intruders?

Intruders are basically the Australian equivalent of Kinga, Eugene and Orlaith. Usually they are not housemates until something happens, like one of them is evicted by the other hms etc.

Usually if they come in and are housemates right away they are called something else... like 'replacement housemates'.

Don't try and understand the webmates... it was just made up as it went along. They said that they were all housemates... then still had the silly snap eviction anyhow.

thanks for that

so they WILL become housemates at some point..if they aint evcited before then?

That's right

thanks for that


shame the aussie version seems to like evicting people after 3 days and replacing them then evicting then replacing....if ya gets me.

It's how we do it down here... go for the big bang and then think about the consequences after they happen and try and fix it.

Also known as making it up as they go along.

They usually do this with intruders anyway. It was only last year where all the intruders got to stay (well apart from the white roomers).
