The OpAphid/Tachyon/Brother thing is the ARG (alternate reality game) that is tied to the story. YOu don't have to play the game, necessarily, but watching their videos and occasionally reading the OpAphid areas of the site can be very insightful.

check out LGPeda
Both of them are ARG games. Opahid work for the order and tachy is against the order.

The insert puzzles and clues into the videos using morse code, backwards talk and phone numbers and such....it's like following a trail of clues. Sometimes drops are made where people can actually go find these clues and then we discuss them and figure out what they mean.

Welcome to the board! I don't really follow the Oppy/Tach thing, so I won't be much help there, but if you go to that section of the forum, there are some great areas that can help you catch up on what's going on behind the videos with the ARG.

Hi, welcome to the bord.
Just wanted to say that I still find the OpAphid arg difficult. But as the others say, read LGpedia, ALL of it, it's really helpful

There is a general discusion board in the Oppy area -- I'm sure they'd be best equipped to handle questions about that there. I never could figure the entire thing out, lol, but that's the beauty of it, you don't have to completely follow that to enjoy the lg15 story line if you're not into it.
Thank goodness for people who are able to figure all that stuff out and share the results with the rest of us!
