yah its like not knowing what Darth Vader looked like kinda thing... the facelessness is what makes it scary!

once there is a face you can kind of humanize oppy and rationalize her behavior. I like her as the evil order more :)
Wah? Why? I wanna know the woman's choice in breakfast cereal. That way Bree will know and will put doses of a tasteless and odorloss drugs into her Capin' Crunch and wait outside her door ( I think of her as having her own apartment no other order memebers know of...and that needs to happen for this plan to work) until they hear a thud.

Jonas and Danny B partied- they must have left that lifestyle with SOME knowledge of roofies they could use but if not Bree could make something out of babypowder and tricuits or something.

Anyway- I like my villians with ironic flaws and personalities. I don't identify with them if they're done right. Like Zurg from the Buzzlightyear series and Drakken from Kim Possible.

They can both do the banter- but are still senslessly violent and disturbed individuals and the fact that they can carry on normal conversations, not get found out and generally live their whole lives that way withotu some important self-reflection adds to the creepy.

But I hope the creators do it in a less Kim possible way.

Are you saying you would like to find out that Oppy has 7 hamsters named after snow white's dwarves and loves ballroom dancing?

I coulda sworn she said in one of her emails that she's never been in one of her videos.

Edit: Found an email where she says she is. Perhaps I was thinking of Tachyon.

You were. Tachyon has said she hires actresses for her vids.

We need a new puzzle! I wasn't active on the site when all the drops and "cassie" videos were going on. Bring on the ARG!

ha ha, I was just going to inquire here about what was going on with the ARG. I just can't bring myself to visit parralax, I feel like an idiot there, because I don't know what they're talking about half the time.

Juli, I think things are in "pause mode" down in Parallax just now while waiting for a new PM to be hired on - so now would be a perfect time to get up to speed on what's been done before.

Unless you're me. I've been following along, I read research as it happens, and I still spent time with my head goin' 'round faster than spin art! :wink:

But...it's really a fun part of the forums, when things are going on... You'll like it, and I've a hunch you'll find yourself to be an excellent contributor, once you're down there! <nodding happily>

Read the Aphidpedia! Then again, I read every page in the Aphidpedia and I still feel like an idiot there. :lol:

Thank you so much for the sweet compliment, cher. I think I will stroll down there and read up a bit.

Oh, and CNG, I've read part of the AphidPedia, but thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to read the rest.

I like my villians to have dry humor, brilliance, cruelty, and a hint of madness to them. Hence, Oppy is my favorite. I miss her terribly.

That said, she isn't Alex. Alex isn't cool enough. Sorry.

Also, I kind of hope we don't see Tachyon. No actress would be hott enough to be Tachyon.

And Langorous Lass..... All I have to say is :smt054 :smt055 :smt058 :smt007 :smt049 :smt050
...Grammar buffs, unite!

i think a twist should be something unpredictable...since the above was predicted, it no longer would be a twist at all
