@Thomas = Actually, I'm gonna undo that edit (unless someone will be faster). If you look at the history, it was posted by some "red-linked user." They're usually newbies on the wiki and aren't very believable (a lot of them are trolls). It looks like someone just posted their favourite contestants. It was never confirmed about Dawn. Even worse, she was one of the first deconfirmed ones and there's a photo on the wiki where you can find that Owen, Cody, and Brick were planned while Gwen and Sam originally weren't in the season. As for Anne Maria, I don't remember but I think it may be somewhere on Julie's MessageWall. No idea about Harold though.

Also, when was it said that Scott McCord didn't want to voice Owen? I believe the producers decided to cut him from the season as they wanted him to compete in RR. They knew he's disliked for how many appearances he has despite not having a plot most of the time. So, they replaced him with a similar contestant - Sam. At least that's my theory.
