No offense to anybody, but I think this video is the worst video ever posted since LG started.

If you ask me it's just something to bring those not following OpAphid a bit more up to date.

Kinda old news, but on the other hand, it's a neat bonus.

Agreed. I think it's a recruitment video.

I think this is an advertisement video.

i definitely agree and think its a way of signing off gemmas character tying in the main plot and arg elements and showing her character isnt going to post any more videos, because she was taken care of by a character from the arg side.

i wonder if well get a new character soon to replace her. *crosses fingers for a canon cassie*

No, because Brother hacked Gemma's account..and not everyone is required to follow Brother/Tachyon/OpAphid.

I think this is just to get the people following LG15...to also follow Tachyon and Brother...to be forced to get more involved.

All Gemma's videos were totally pointless, the writing sucked so baaaad, the creators just decided to make her evil and then kill her off without any explanation or anything...I'm tired of this, its getting REALLY lame, this video just seemed like an advertisement to me...You'd think though if the Order is really as big and powerful as we are lead to believe, they could capture Bree anytime they desired, what are they waiting for?!? WHAT DOES THE ORDER WANT?!?!? THIS CAN'T BE PROLONGED ANYMORE, WE MUST KNOW NOW!!!

WE DON'T NEED ANYMORE CHARACTERS..at least right now anyways.

agreed, it's just posted for advertisement. to get more viewers on the breeniverse and people in the forums.

the hacking only really leaves the ARGers with the confidence that tachyon and brother are closing in on gemma. nothing says she's dead or not yet.

be still, children.

Did the mashed letters at the end appear in the vids first time around???

I have grabbed the two from the gemmers19 account reposts, and went back to Tachyon for the originals to compare...but they are the same! The "Gemma? (III)" vid also has mashed letters at the end!?

But none appear in "Gemma (IV)" or "Gemma (V)"...yet!

Am trying to make sense of the three grabs I have already and flipping/manipulating them to see if they start to make sense...but they are definately mashed letters!

BTW...I noticed the gemmers19 account reposts appeared over on YT...but have not appeared on Rev?? Anyone know why??

Yeah, we were never able to decipher anything from them...

Are we to infer that Gemma was shot? Or, maybe Brother kidnapped her? Maybe Brother just stole her laptop when she was out of her room for the shooting? Once again, the vid raises more questions than it supplies answers (which is cool, but....dammit- I'm ready for them to start making some progress on this story).

This whole story has started to take on the feeling of a really poor strip tease. Part of the appeal with delayed gratification is that you can be reasonably sure that there will be some gratification at some point. Part of the appeal of a movie is that you know it will wrap itself up, at some point. You know there's a direction and that plotlines will get closure. I feel like the creators keep bringing in new elements without resolving the elements they've already started. If LG15 were a sex partner, we'd all have blue balls by now. Except for the women,... we'd all be breaking up with LG15 and telling our friends how the relationship was intense, but never went anywhere.

Awwwww, come on, house. A girl can never get enough foreplay;)

I'd really love to know if she was dead, but I think the Gemma videos are another way to suck those of us not closely following OpAphid into it.
