Maybe she brought up cassie...knowing how many anagrams she did...so that we'd know to find that voicemail...

Thanks....I'm just trying to figure out why they chose THAT name.

The Plot Discussion thread suggests that the name could be "Powell's" Dry Cleaners, since there is a street, along with plenty of businesses, in SF by that name.

Personally, I think it's not very likely that the creators would use the name of an actual business -- it might lead to the business getting besieged by excited LG15 fans. I think "Pal's" is a more likely interpretation. The transcript on the LGPedia says "Powell's," though, so unless the transcript was fan-created, I guess "Powell's" is correct.

Thanks! I see that now. It has to mean something but we won't know until the name is confirmed either way.

I believe that OpAphid was fan created and has since been made canon.

I don't think they would do it intentionally. It might just be a coincendence that there's some cleaners on Powell street if they used "Pal's," but I'd still like to think the Creators would know the area and would take precautions not do that. Could be a slip up on their part, or they just weren't thinking and actually meant it to be "Powell." I do think that when Bree says the name it sounds like "Powell's," but maybe a moment of Jessica Rose's accent emerging did that?

Yeah, the transcript was fan-created. It really could be "Pal's" or "Powell's," I think.

Yes, I am pretty sure you're right.

but they were rather quickly placed in specific referances by Bree and Gemma just like Jonas. And Tachyon as well.

well now they have access to the sets so it's most likely being run by the creators now or they have big influences. Like with NBR. As I mentioned before she is much more likely to become recognized as OpAphid was. (assumng both were actually fan created and not plants)

I wouldn't say that really. OpAphid's first appearance was September 24, while its acknowledgement as canon wasn't until November 20 (only four days short of two full months). On the other hand, Gemma was introduced on October 19 and acknowledged as canon on October 25, while Jonas was introduced on November 16 and acknowledged as canon on November 24.

Added to that, some of the early OpAphid vids were posted on YouTube as video responses to some cassieiswatching videos (this was, of course, at a time when CiW wasn't even remotely canon).

When Bree phones the number with the dry cleaner voice mail, she mumbles the phone number.
Maybe it's significant?

I know...but Ops started off as a spin off or gamejack of CiW. Either way, canon now..but didn't start that way. Plant, perhaps. dunno

I'm fairly confident that OpAphid has been canon from the beginning. You see, the creators never actively denied that OpAphid was canon. They actively denied that Cassie was canon, though.

I am also fairly (>75%) confident that cassie was a failed project, and created by the same PM's as those which PM Opaphid right now. Somewhere along the end of cassie there must have been a talk between the cassie creators and the LG15 creators, effectively signing a deal to make an LG15 ARG.

Makes sense. CiW also knew exact locations. Either the PM went over the line on the Manson stuff or they wanted to start fresh with a new game. It was pretty lame how they ended it, either way.

I have a feeling that this video made Cassie fans collectively org.. well, I have a feeling it made Cassie fans very, very happy.

However, I'm not a Cassie fan, and honestly found this video not particularly.. interesting. Pretty boring actually.. I mean.. seriously, calling random "family members"? Why would she need to use caller ID block if she was going to tell them who she was anyway? ... Bree, silly girl, you're on the right track.. you know, not just sitting around whining.. but let's use our brain, shall we?
