Does it bother anyone else that the video was distorted when the bodies were being wrapped up. It clearly looked like both Adam and Maddy to me... but why turn the picture so red... if it was staged, it may help hide any flaws in the footage... but if not...??

[OOC -- It could have been done by the PM to be less gruesome... but... I don't see why really... hmmm]

Apo,

I agree with you. There was just something about this that doesn't say Oppy to me. It was so classless and artless. While Op may kill people, it was said that pains were taken to make it look accidental, not homicidal.

their bodies also didn't look very limp/dead.

OOG of course, they weren't *actually* dead, sooo...

as a texan, and for the purpose of bragging about being texan, i, too, will also, as well, point out that controlled burns are extremely common, especially in south texas, especially this time of year. redundancy yes, but, hey, i'm from texas.

i agree with this, but i'm not sure what it means. i think maddy is dead, as much as i don't want her to be. warpy did make a video, and then puts his name on this vid, but it just doesn't seem like an oppy killing. it wasn't precise enough. and as someone else pointed out, oppy operatives wear black and sunglasses and are good looking, and this dude clearly doesn't fit into that category

and yeah the red tint was upsetting but i just thought it was upsetting because it was there

maybe they couldn't get one of their sleek operatives to go to Texas, so they just hired some random redneck.

Because they had previously failed? I am grasping at straws here. I'm like many others here, but my reasons are different.

Yeah, Apo, I do think you're grasping at straws, bud. If I didn't trust this person to be an assassin to the extent you're talking about, I'd just send someone else period. I wouldn't even bother with War Pylol.

It doesn't make any sense since the scenario is identical ("location verified, D in APHID" followed by an assassination attempt) and since "No More" has "Warpylol" as a tag along with "D in APHID."

I don't think she ever told us she was above this kind of thing. In fact, what with disposing of her personal assistants and her security detail on the off-chance that they had something to do with Tachyon knowing when Op would put up a new video (without actual evdience against them), something like this doesn't surprise me in the least.

And, really, when it comes to assassination, is there any kind that isn't trashy?

Lurker, could you please explain this to me. As an Ophead, I don't remember this at all...

I'm willing to bow to your wisdom. However, I suppose that if assassination had to be done, it might be done in such a manner that it doesn't instill terror in the victims. It clearly did here.

Again, Oppy might want to send a message, but it just doesn't fit her style here.

Good point... also there's no evidence that the kid with the gun was the only other person on the premesis. He was just the only one shown. While Warpy may have been there, that may not actually be him. For all we know, this kid was an accomplice and Warpy shot him after the film was cut,too.

It was only mentioned in one of her private messages to a forum member. I forget who it was to, but it's in that e-mail archive thread somewhere.

I understand what you're saying. If not for the incident with her assistants and security personnel - whom she said swore they had nothing to do with it before she got rid of them anyway - I'd probably agree that it doesn't seem her style (though it may have still been Warpy's).

Lurker.. you were on the debate team in high school, weren't you?

Thank you, Lurker. If I wasn't so damn lazy, I'd look it up.

I think part of what we are basing our (mine & Apo's) opinions on is the fact that Warpy's past suggests he (or she) is more of a bomber and less of a shooter.
