The Creators tell us OpAphid is no more. Read up on what made it great and relive old memories here.

Good question, Tilt. What will they have us do? How much longer can this continue? Why is it that all the characters seem to be familiar to each other in some way? Why can't your sailors ever reach land?

i'm pretty sure the arc has been created..and it's being set up for us right now.
like look at the gemma videos...
seems to be seting up a big event, which will lead into the next arc....


anyways...shouldn't this be in general?

I hope they won't have us carry out D ourselves (although I've been betting on Destroy since we solved H). I think all the characters are tied together in a way we haven't seen yet--but I think that we're dealing with seven different characters (Bree, Daniel, Gemma, Jonas, OpA, Tachyon, Brother), not a smaller number with multiple identities. And they'll never reach land because they were painted by a German Romantic painter, and that's just the way he rolled. :)

I miss Op. I wish she'd come back to play.
We aren't on I or the next arc. We are on vacation. When the next arc starts we'll get this renamed for new content and move old items to the prologue.
Shouldn't we just leave this chapter as is and move ourselves to the new one when the time comes? Perhaps move a few relevant threads to the new one, just like when we left the prologue and moved into the I in Aphid. All that moving and shuffling of threads sounds like a nightmare both for forum ops and readers.

I generally agree, however, if this goes multiple arcs then the board will expand wonky. I'd like to keep them as is though.

Well, what I'm hoping for is that the forum admins will just change the name of the arch and just let us (the Operators) decide what should be moved to the Archives and what should stay.

I mean, the new arch should really be happening any day, and I don't know about you ladies, but I have no idea how they're going to restructure the forum for the new storyline.


PS -- Tilt, when you said "that's just the way he rolled" it made me fall in love with you all over again.

I Think this seems logical in terms of easily keeping the arcs seperate, and keeping things organized

I think we're still on I in APHID for a reason. We still have infiltration going on. You've seen Tachyon's latest video, right? Not on D yet.

Not to mention all the hullabaloo with Brother. HUMM.

Well, Tacky's latest lays the groundwork for "D" beautifully.

I said it somewhere else, but I can't remember. I think that before they went canon the whole arg was supposed to end after "D" was done. But now, I think the acronym will just be the begining.

Having it end after D would be a bit of a disappointment to those of us just now figuring it all out.

It's like walking in on the last 30 minutes of a movie.

bethy, this was BEFORE it went canon. I am pretty sure that it was supposed to end as well.
