I've been trying to follow the cassie boom. I defended Cu against flaming and I even had some harsh moments with a moderator.

But after the whole forum breaking I think I have to agree with them. But let me explain myself:

Cassieiswatching is becoming a great game. The moderators can claim is not LG related all they want, but one of the reasons people took it too seriously is because a journalist who had a good deal of information said a spinoff was coming, related to known locations. cassieiswatching fitted that description too well. They knew exactly where Bree was shoot. They had the very kind and quality of video. Timing was done greatly. So it's natural we took it as part of the Breenverse.

However... one fun ends where someone else's fun gets ruined. Today Cassie ruined the fun for those who just wanted to discuss about how serious Daniel was getting by calling a walk in the park a date. That is not fair.

My suggestion to the admin is to get a subdomain for cassie. That way those who like creepy scavenger hunts can go there and trash about teen soap operas if they want, while those who like stories about romance with a hidden twist can trash the ARG nerds all they want.

I think the "hidden twist" is likely to be something more along the lines of cassieiswatching than you think though.

its great that whomever is behind the Cassie thing is getting this much attention ... for those who care. otherwise its a nuissance and a theft of the original project.

now someone is posting cassie clues on ebay??? wow, trying to make money off of it??

there is someone also selling LG15forum.com domain too ... although it doesnt appear they are selling it for profit.

this is all twisted now, not even the creators have control of it. ha! take what you want from it and leave the rest behind.

As Cassie stuff is directly linked to the story it is appropriate for discussion here. The only way I would accept that Cassie stuff to be Off Topic on these boards would be for the creators to put up an official WARNING video on Bree's YT profile.

Making a text declaration here on a semi official forum is NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

The only guaranteed official LG15 locations are Bree's profile and Daniels profile on YOUTUBE, and that is the ONLY place where you can Guarantee that 100% of the fans will see the message.

If LG15 creators want to distance themselves from what they see as a potentially dangerous fan created offshoot, then they have to IMHO create a warning video and put it up on Bree's profile at Youtube.

If they don't do that then as far as I am concerned it's open season and anything and everything LG15 related could be part of the show and could not be part of the show and we will all just have to sit back and watch it all pan out.

Plus to all those who think Cassie is not part of the show. She may not be officially , it might be someone linked to the show (a cameraman for example).

I cannot accept that it is some fan/watcher from Youtube who is otherwise totally unrelated. Because They knew the location of the pool in the river and they knew what park it was (shot in the dark making it even more difficult to identify). I'm sure you've discussed this stuff somewhere else on these boards so if you can point me to it I'd appreciate it.

Alright, now I've heard arguments for and against, the cassieiswatching arg concept, but I still have doubts for either argument. Allow me to be the devils advocate.

I understand that the creators have denied involvement with the cassieiswatching sub-plot, or whatever you like to call it. But I can't take the creators on their word. In 2002 an arg called majestic was released, it too used a simmilar manner of deception to create an atmosphere to qoute wikipedia

This doesn't even deserve a reply but I'm a sucker for putting people in their place when they make ridiculous claims.

Sigh.

cassieiswatching is not canon.

The only cassie material which is canon is the improv between Jess and Yousef within the Swimming video, which may or may not be touched on in the future.

cassieiswatching does not need to be canon to validate anyone's interest in it.
cassieiswatching does not need to be canon to validate its own existence.
cassieiswatching was never claimed to be canon by Virginia Heffernan.

If the mods appear to be hostile to cassieiswatching, that would probably be due to:

a) what each of the mods personally feels is tasteless and malicious content used in the second cassieiswatching video,

b)the obvious irresponsibility which with the ambivalent "game" is being conducted,

c) and the utter and sheer weariness induced by having to monitor multiple threads of people throwing about rash accusations of conspiracies, deceit and coverups regarding the alleged canon-nature of cassieiswatching.
