WTF?!? a day or two that’s pretty lame. Rolling Eyes Also do they not have anyone who knows anything about IT to not realize that this was going to be a fiasco?!? I mean come on... you make an interactive story, you want your fans involved, you claim to be starting a new medium that centers around fan involvement and interaction w/ the characters, you publicize an event where the fans can do just that and this is the result?!?trainer101 wrote:....

Note to the creators get your act together. Otherwise you’re going to lose your audience.
Some once said in these forums that "they really liked the idea of a new type of story telling, telling a completely new story, not the same old story rehashed in a different medium" and at the time I didn't get it, but I do know. We are all bored to tears w/ hyper reality shows and sitcoms. We as the viewing public want something different, which can take us in a new direction.
Here I'll even help you out a little bit.
You have your pacing all off for these webisodes. epically the recent ones, and maybe its because u don't have the budget that you need to do it right, which might be the fans fault for not hitting that donate button at least once, I know I am guilty of that. But I digress, these last few videos came out WAY to far apart, you gave us far too much time to figure out where the story was heading. And that leads to pretty boring story telling if everyone knows what’s going to happen next before we even watch the videos. . These should have all happened fairly quickly ending in a crescendo with the webisodes “Ransacked” and Bree being scared turning to the camera and saying “HELP ME!!! I’ll be in the chat room in two hours”. This then allows Jonas to step in and be a hero by taking them in. It also does Not allow for the chat rooms to get too full, and also adds a sense of urgency that has been severely lacking in all these “chase videos”…
You DON’T have to wait until everyone has seen the last video before you post the next one, this isn’t TV we can go back and watch the episode if we missed it, hell knowing us, we will watch it 2 or 3 times to try and sift out every last bit of information we can from it. We might even play it back words to see if it plays "Bree is dead”.
The basic idea here is that when telling a story of any kind you either need to take the audience somewhere they never expected to go or you need to take them on a fast paced thrill ride that they do not care that they already new the destination. Neither of these things happened in the last sequence of videos.
Also will someone please do better writing for Daniel no man should be that annoying or selfish when in the face of eminent danger… storming of because he is mad… I wouldn’t me mad… I would be scared shitless that people had broken into my room gone through my stuff and where after me and my best friend. I would be more protective of Bree and not some emotion douche bag. His character has become unrealistic with this last move, change it or drop the character.
That said you are still providing an entertaining experience and I for one am impressed.
