What does each letter of APHID stand for?

Very nice. She says to find instruction within the message and only then will we be prepared. Her sanction (def:authoritive permission or approval that makes a course of action valid) is that we sleep. And then wake up only to find that we have tons more to work on

This may also be why she's hinting for people to go to sleep. That may be exactly what she'd like to do now, and she'd probably rather people aren't plugging away at it quite as much while she's not around to supervise.

Why does that make me feel like a teenage girl having a party whose parents won't leave us alone so the making out can start

so its analysis, a noun compared to analyze a verb?

could be useful with future words.

Yes.

This reminds me of the steps to strategy. Depending on who you ask it varies but a pretty common way to verbalize it is:

Listen/Aim/Move/Claim

So it appears that she will be using a similar process...one with five steps and one that acronyms into APHID

Plan could be the next step...but I'm jumping way ahead there.

this is jumping WAY ahead... but could the D in APHID be decide?

So it's like scientific method... you know, hypothesize, experiment, observe, analyze, conclude?

Except hers starts with analyze...

Analyze, Predict, H(ypothesize... means the same as predict), Investigate, Decide...?

Something along those lines?

good thinking.

Just a thought. The _ in aphid vids may be another set to be analyzed apart from the others just as the Cassie set was analyzed without the rest.

if it is decide i wonder if this decision will make a split, or maybe it will only be an allusion of a choice where we'll all know what we're suposed to do

Yes, but a prediction is different than a hypothesis. You make a prediction, and you verbalize it in a hypothesis.

There will be no choice.
You will become slaves to the order...

I was thinking the same thing last night, but I only started looking at OpAphid a few days ago. I thought of the analyze thing, too, but I figured -- as a newbie -- I was thinking too simplistically.

I think it's a fine idea as long as there aren't different clues for each letter in the anagram.

I'm sure there will be different clues. Finishing the acronym will be a major turning point. Don't rush or the story will go too quickly.
