I'd rather it not count at all than count as a prank.

So after all the hours CiW peeps spent solving anagrams it turns out that CiW is just an emo prankster that has no friends.

I think they are, 'cause the more this video loops on my system, the more upset it makes me...

Oh, I'm frustrated with a lot more than OpA right now. To me, this video was nothing more than a great big "F*** You" to the CiW followers

Um, you know who gave the biggest f**k YOU to all the CiW followers?

Cassie is Watching

blame whoever was behind that debacle we all got burned on, and not The Creators!

at least this is them trying to throw us a bone that makes sense in LG15 and now allows for something to be done with the Cassie character.

what on earth could they have done with her as it stood post-CiW? from what we knew, Cassie was a corpse and in Second Life.

now at least we know she's probably alive, and just a bit of a bitch.

yeh i agree with that, if the creators knew nothing was going to come from it.... why did they let us do it?

Yes, but until this video came out, there was always some hope that CiW could come out of hiding and start the game back up again. This video pretty much crushed that hope, which is why I'm so ticked off about it...

yeahh, i realized after talking about it that i never really watched the videos in their entirety. they kind of creeped me out. all i knew was that she whispered. i still don't really feel like watching them.

they didn't know that at the time. they didn't have anything to do with CiW.

it probably explains why The Creators sough out OpAphid -- to make sure it would be a complete story and ARG so the LG15 fans wouldn't get burned again.

in a way, maybe this is them saying "whoever did CiW dropped the ball, and now we'd like OUR character Cassie back."

They said that CiW wasn't the route they wanted to go once the Tate murders pictures were included. Can't say I blame them either. That was a horrible event that left a lot of people emotionally shattered. For the sake of those people's feelings, I wouldn't have wanted to exploit that in any way.

It's not like the Creators are stopping CiW's creator from coming back and doing something else with it. Again, at least this way we get CiW included as canon in a manner of speaking. For me that's satisfying enough.

In my opinion it's not as much of a "f**k you" as it would have been if they just continued to ignore it. At least in this way it figures into the plot to some extent, you know? Better than not counting at all.

I sort of thought the same thing...its sort of an explanation for alot of things that Cassie did...like leaving everyone hanging...and some of the clues that went nowhere......
But I didn't follow ciw really (I watched the vids and the forums though) so I can't speak from the point of view of the really dedicated ciw fans........
