There's a new (20 mins ago... 10pm in Cali?) vid up from lonelygirl15: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2YMux3PCL4

Just as if nothing ever happened. I'm WAY to tired, but there doesn't seem to be any clues. Really I'm just happy that they are going to continue the storyline, though the cassieiswatching angle would be even better.

Hey all. I'm a long time reader of your forums, and I really admire all the work you put into these ARG's. I've never felt compelled to post anything until now, and it's more out of annoyance than anything.

I spent some time over at the official forums today, and it was insane. This Cassie business has people losing their minds. I say if they want to play a real ARG they should check out the trailheads over here, but I digress.

The one piece of evidence that tells me conclusively that the cassieiswatching video isn't part of the LG canon is that the video is not hosted on Revver. If you've seen the interviews the cast and creators of LG have done you can't help but notice the Revver banners all over the backdrops. It's actually now the official site for LG videos. If a video is not on Revver, I think we can safely say that it is in no way connected to LG by means of the creators.

And let's be honest, the quality of the video may be in sync with everything else that LG has put out, but the vibe and the request for interaction is totally out of left field for this story.

I have to agree...but I won't smile about it. Wink

Score a point for resistance!

new vid

the latest LG15 vid seems like a filler vid.

There is nothing about cassie in it or the card.

The good news is there is nothing in it at all.

I don't think we will seen new plot untill the 2nd date with daniel vid comes out.

The seller, cassieiswatching, appears to be from Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom. Recall that in the lonelygirl15 video "Mysteries of My Past... REVEALED!", Bree says that she lived for two years time (age 12 - 14 for Bree) in Nottingham, UK.
Yeah, Bree lived there. Not Cassie. Cassie was Daniel's friend from school in the states. What are the chances that after Cassie "disappered" that she would end up in a different country in the same town that Bree once lived in? I wish that when pulling random information out, people (aka "PMs") would pull out information that was actually plausible. What's next? Cassie moving to Australia and New Zealand?

I hope it goes without saying that you should only bid on these cards if you really don't care about throwing your money away and getting nothing in return. At least if you donate that money to UF, you can help keep the admins off the streets and fed. Kick in a few more dollars and you can even get a nifty t-shirt that you can proudly wear instead of wondering what you're gonna do with 4 tarot cards. In fact, I have my own tarot deck. If you donate to UF instead of buying these cards, I'll send you 5 random tarot cards. How's that for a deal?

Has anyone read the mtv article?

The basic premise of lg15 is that people take the base story and turn it into what they want, through video responses and posts. If this cassie spin off is popular and people want that then the writers are going to take the story in that direction and based on the hype on the official lg15 boards it's likely they will and are going to, if they haven't already. It's sorta like a choose your own fan fic, only it's the vast majority which decides the course of the story.

That's only if it's run by the same people, which no one has proven conclusively that it is. I've seen way too many attempts at arg-jacking to trust anything unless it's been verified by an official source. Something just doesn't feel right to me with this whole cassie thing, and as my hunches have had a pretty good track record, I'm gonna listen to it until someone can prove otherwise.

kicking myself for not saving it...

Sorry for being really vague, hoping that someone will have info here since I was too much of an idiot to bookmark this...

Last night when I was watching the cassieiswatching video threads (the original, Cu, that awful awful song with the Madonna/child background, and others) I noticed a weird little video that was connected. It was listed in those little promos that come up after the video ends.

Anyway, it was a creepy video that seemed to be shot in the same area as the bag drop, and looked like it was spying on someone at the water's edge--looked like the same guy at the end of Cu's video, in fact.

Now I can't find the thing, and it's driving me nuts. Did anyone else notice it?

Yeah, I'm a lousy player. Sorry. First time and still learning...

I believe that is yet another attempt at ARG jacking. It might be from the same people, filmed while they were switching the bags. It was poor quality, poorly edited, and not posted under the Cassie youtube name. It was also 'discovered' incredibly quickly by someone with a low post count.

Anything, in my opinon, not posted under the Cassie/LG15 youtube should be considered false and not important to the game.

This is a comment left by ChildOfTheCult7 on his own site:
"help me, i can only see what you see, the 8th is near do you know his real name? does she know his real name?

wherein lies the ring of fire?"

You will also notice that the vid is 19 hours old and his account is 20 hours old. The video also has less than 300 views, so you know something's got to be up.

Yes, that user name is who posted the false and poorly edited video. I again believe he/she/it is connected to the game jacking.

He just went there, possibly after Nilla, found nothing and decide to take his shot at a spooky video with rather mediocre results.

Also a valid possiblity. The only thing we know for certain is it's not a legitimate clue.
