And if something major happens, they review at the end and edit what needs to be edited... like episode 1 and all the zoom on top 3 and often top 1 such the zoom on Jed reaction when hannah came to collect luke for the first rose... or zoom on tyler at the RC. Those 2 were for me screeming top 2. IMO

Actually that leads me into another thing. IIRC the first episode is sent out the week before it airs so that media outlets can watch it and write articles on it for publication right after it airs. So if the FRC happened on May 10 (a Friday) and the show aired on May 13 (a Monday) they almost have to have edited it, made copies and sent them out before the FRC actually took place.

Santorini (Thira) International Airport is an airport in Santorini/Thira, Greece, located north of the village of Kamari. The airport serves both as a military and as a civil airport. With its relatively small apron, as of 2018 the airport is only able to serve up to 6 civilian planes at the same time. Wikipedia

If they did, IMO, I think episode 1 would have edited differently and not much emphasis on Scott.  Maybe the producers thought at that time she was choosing Tyler, which resulted in the first spoiler.  IMO

IMO it was at least very close. Episode 1 aired on May 13. Our timeline shows an FRC on May 10; we do reflect that Luke's FD was on 5/4 and was the last FD to be filmed. Assuming FRC on May 10 and first episode aired May 13 that would have been pretty tight and I would expect they would have had most of episode 1 edited before the FRC actually took place.

But this is only part of the interesting possibilities on the timeline. A spoiler account from Reddit suggests that Tyler's family believed that he was F1 while they were still in Greece, and RS posted that Tyler was F1 in his May 20 column which could be how RS got it wrong (if was basing his information on someone (or ones) from Tyler's camp). The same spoiler account reported that Jed was basically heartbroken and not one of his circle of friends believed he could be engaged, so that information might have corroborated RS's post of Tyler as F1. IMO this could well be a case of intentional misdirection to make the spoilers wrong.

And though I tend to believe that TPTB knew about Hayley, I sort of have to wonder out loud "what if they didn't?" Hayley might not have begun thinking something was rotten in Denmark until she realized Jed was back and had made no effort to contact her and pick up where they had left off. That could have been a week or so after he returned, and even then she seems to have decided to keep quiet. It wasn't until people started asking her about Jed and their relationship (Kelly Keegs could have been one and RS could have been one as they both have said they reached out to Haley) and who knows who else. Once she realized that some media outlets were following a trail leading to her she seems to have decided that if her story was going to be told she wanted to be the one who told it and then she went to People Magazine.

mercieme wrote:@Sharnee, this is my theory regarding Tyler G. The stories about him were posted in a Google document on Reddit. Jed’s story were not posted there but surfaced later. Robert Mills is good buddies with Ashley Spivey who was a moderator on Reddit at some point (not sure if she is anymore) but she is connected with Reddit moderators. Sometimes Reddit moderators actually verify the stories by talking directly to the people involved so it could be the reason why ABC was able to get the evidence they needed on Tyler G....all jmho.

I doubt that it was Tyler who told his parents that he had been chosen.  So it makes more sense to me that it was the producers who did that.  Because the time frame from when the FRC happened to when everyone returned home was what 4 - 5 days?  The producers could have fed bad information to numerous spoiler sites so that RS would believe that Tyler won and would then run with it.

As soon as Tyler's family had contact with him either before or after he left Greece they would have known the truth.  So for me it does not make sense that Tyler's family was RS's source.  So many things are not adding up.
