Videos posted on hymnofone.org

Just the official word, since folks are confused:

Some industrious folks found a subdirectory off www.hymnofone.org that contained some old LG15 videos and a few videos from Taylor (aka Soccerstar). One of the soccerstar videos was one that we have not seen yet on Taylor's revver page. It appears to be the next one from her, and there's no word on how the Hymn Of One got the video. It didn't reveal much, but we assume she'll post it soon. The other videos in the subdirectory were LG15 videos we've already seen (with slightly different titles, perhaps working titles).

The website administrators of Hymn of One locked down the subdirectory and have asked us (I received word) to have patience and please do not spend time trying to find other folders or hack the site.

This is not in-game, and that's the key point. Thanks!

I find it hard to believe that it's not in-game. Surely the Creators have a hard drive to store this stuff on. Why would anyone store the files on the HoO website under different titles? Titles that were, by the way, very much in-character for HoO.

whether in game or not, move the other thread some wheres other then the fanfic section.
Concerns and complaints is probably more appropriate.

It would be a really great idea to drop little clues here and there, just in case folks find them. I remember the first year of Survivor, someone digging on the cbs website found images of all the contestants x'd out except for one, and it was a total plant, because that guy got voted out the next week.

But in this case, the official word is that it was an oversight. I have no idea why they're there...

Don't forget that the HymnofOne.org website is really just part of the LG15.com website - and I don't think anyone wants to make the claim that in-universe the Hymn of One has been running this forum.

Those titles, by the way, were probably just working titles for some of the videos. It wouldn't be the first time we've seen a video title change ("Hustle And Flow" changed to "Missing Days" after it had already been uploaded for view by the public).

I maintain that those titles seemed to reflect HoO's concerns and that I don't understand why the creators felt the need to store these videos in such a conspicuous subdirectory of a website we all knew existed. I concede that I don't know why the creators would then lie about it being in-game either. Something just doesn't seem right here.

It wasn't supposed to be conspicuous is the most obvious answer. They either forgot to lock that or they didn't think anyone would find it.

It's easy to underestimate you guys. Seriously, trust me. I continually am blown away at how resourceful you all are and how in depth your research is. So this could just be a big fat mistake on their part. Let's leave it and let it go where it needs to go.

It is an interesting thing though. Could they be denying so that we disregard the clue until a later moment when we go "Oh crap!?"

And I guess this means that Tyler and Jules are completely offically cannon, huh?
