Well if it fans out to be a large scale arg, it would be nice, but for the moment it just feels like we're being baited along.

On the topic of the iron pills:

In the park video, when she's asked if her dad is making her take those pills, she implies that he is.

If you look in the video before that, the house arrest video, Bree is seen wearing a tank top. On her left arm is a bandage. When asked about in her comments, she mentions that "its nothing...i had to get a shot"

Iron pills are taken to regain lost blood.

I'm thinking maybe it's part of a religious ritual? Her parents are making her draw blood or something?

Creepy.

Well, after yesterday's cassieiswatching madness, I gotta say: Good call on keeping the threads separate, rowan. Your hunch proved right...

Anyway, one thing that came of it is a new statement by The Creators concerning the future of LonelyGirl15 (and their involvement with cassieiswatching):

...so if it's bad when PMs launch without spending enough time developing the game, what does that make it when you've already launched and then decide to make it an ARG? really really bad?

Woah. multiple videos released in the last week or so, and not one comment.

Everyone's given up on this, right?

I've been watching them. But, yeah, I think people were interested in the fallacy more than the story. If the makers had not come out so obviously there would still be a bit more interest, even knowing it's fake.

There's been a really high level of cynacism towards to motives of the people making this. It seems people aren't so positive to the 'blair witch effect' these days.

I'm still watching the videos, but there's not much for me to talk about anymore. My current reaction is "Meh".

The producers had huge potential with this. They could have taken it in any direction and kept it obviously fake but extremely enjoyable.

Instead we get an anti-climatic reveal, followed by... nothing! Pretending nothing happened, confusing everyone, and going back into their corner. And then they redesign lonelygirl15.com, and move to revver, while weird things happen on the forums. The last nail in the coffin for me was Bree dancing on Leno... eh, double-u tee ef?

Agree with colin. The story isn't that appealing and they haven't built in the required interactivity to follow the demands of the audience. Woo Daniel kissed Bree! Where's my evil dark virgin sacrificing cult!

This might have been pure genius, but it's very obvious now that it was just beginner's luck. Someone should go over there and buy them a new Curtain. Idiots.
