Darn it. I keep trying to read up on the OpAphid stuff and get lost. I've read the dang LGpedia.

Well, I hope they do a "OpAphid for Dummies"

I liked it better when Cassie was scaring the crap out of me.

Oh, and why is Daniel so pissed off?

I'm with everyone who said that if we have to keep up with OpAphid to stay on top of the LG15 story, I'm out. As it is, I usually end up watching the videos and checking the forums while i'm at work. The lst thing I need is to be caught working out some cryptic quadratic equation while i'm supposed to be getting a return on investment report ready or something :lol

Really, I'm watching this to be entertained. Not to think.

Moving right along...what the heck got Daniel's panties in a twist.

Here, here.

For those who are not familiar with OpAphid/Tachyon...

OpAphid is an organization that guards the secrets of the Order

Tachyon betrayed the Order

"Brother" is Tach's partner

There really isn't no Story, thats basically it, all there is to Op is solving puzzles that lead to more puzzles, people seem to really enjoy that, cause they get to interact with others...OMG SO MUCH FUN!

I think it was because Bree would'nt say anything about her "community"when he asked her.

Well, his life has been unnecessarily interupted, he is living in hotels knowing that the money will eventually run out, Bree is in total denial and no help at all, his life could be in danger (despite that Bree continues to make videos)...take your pick. I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.

Why is everyone saying they won't stay around if OpAphid is a part of the series? I think the story needed a twist and new characters, as it was dragging. It's not too much to ask to watch a few 3 minute (tops, some are just seconds) vids to get the background; no one said you had to explore every little thing about them, like we do Bree's and Daniel's vids. This is a picker-upper, IMO.

I agree--she's not giving him any information, and instead makes a video of herself playing with her stuffed friends.

Again, where's the concern, Bree?

THANK YOU. At least that should be enough info to keep me in the loop.

Don't know if anyone brought this up, but...

What the hell is up with this comment (comment #81):

Apparently the coordinates are a housing complex in Riverside?

EDIT - Wrong town/city name...

It might also be a case of blue balls

I'm beginning to feel like the creators need to do just that: create. If they continue to rely so heavily on fan opinions, the story will continue to stall because they are too worried about keeping everyone happy. To put little bits and pieces in from fan ideas is nice (the cookies back in the beginning), but to throw in whole sub stories and change the entire feel and plot due to fan ideas is over the top and the main reason the series is dragging.

I think they should get back to what they were doing in the meantime, and stick to some sort of predetermined plot. It seems lately that they have abandoned that idea completley.

Just my opinion, of course. Maybe this is all a predetermined script, but it sure doesn't feel like it.

I think this is really exciting. They must be sticking to a plan. They made all these mysterious characters that they have now merged and are going to tie in to the storyline. I think this could be just what we've all been yearning to complete our emptiness since the disappearance of CiW. This means we'll have answers, fulfillment, etc. We won't just be spending days at a time refreshing pages and complaining that we're bored and need a new video. We'll be involved in the thought, the analysis, the clues, all over again. It's definitely an exciting addition, in my opinion. I had a hard time grasping OpAphid, too, but once I finally reached a moment of clarity, it really fell into place quite well. It's pretty awesome.

all OpAphid does is give me a headache.

If you viewed the "nightline" interview with the creators, they said that storylines they had been working on for a long time were coming to fruition. I, for one, think this has been a long time in the planning. I have thought from day one of OpAphid that it was canon, and I never waivered.
