"Incidentally we already have plans to incorporate ARG elements into LG15 so we are excited to see such a vigorous investigative response to cassieiswatching despite the fact that subject matter is darker than we would like."
That could be fun. What do you guys think?

That could be fun. What do you guys think? I'm all for incorporating ARG elements. But, I've been a fan of ARG ever since the imho original big daddy of them all that introduced the lackluster movie AI. (The ARG was sooo good that it made the movie pale in comparision). So, done well, ARG could prove very exciting in the breenverse.

That could be fun. What do you guys think? I am aprehensive about that in all honesty. The fact that the Cassie thing is getting so dark, which has turned out to be an ARG (it seems) to even think they might try the same thing. I think ARG's are also very unfair. You have to live in the right area. I live in a crappy state where nothing happens, so I would most likely be left out. I'd rather feel included, not discluded. I am willing to see how it goes in the first place, but overall, I am very apprehensive and nervous.

Think about this you guys... The Creators must be involved in the Cassie offshoot somehow. There is NO WAY that a random joe could have figured out these two locations (the swimming hole and the park) without some kind of insider info. So, as much as we want to "distance ourselves" from the Cassie story, they are tied together... like it or not. If you knew LA very well you could figure it out. " Cassie" had from 8/29 to 9/12 to figure out the first location. Time to find the park was from 9/13 to 9/17 . Plenty of time for finding both I think.

I think ARG's are also very unfair. You have to live in the right area. Not all ARG's have to be solely about physical location. There are alot of phoney but authentic looking websites and such that are used. Information refrenced that anyone has access too. Puzzles to solve that are not site specific. In the AI ARG there were only a few things that were site specific that the majority of the international players couldnt go to. And those were filmed not just by the players but also by the creators and put up as in game information.

no matter if you think its true or not...everyone will agree that the annoucment was good because everything has been getting borderline crazy ... really good call. Borderline? Or bats*** crazy. I vote the latter. I say borderline...and I include you into the hysteria....now the boards are going nuts over the fear of it all...like I said its a good call but noone needs to freak out the extreme about any of it..take it in stride and think it through...dont be crazy going out of random tips and dont have a freak out and be typical overly dramtic and cause hysteria in the other direction...if people just calm down they will see that all of the craziness is all emotions and for everyone to just chill out....thats all Im saying..and likely all Ill say on this board about it...it will all simmer down now.

Wouldn't it be interesting if the Cassie thing is just a fan spinoff, not dangerous, and became more popular than LG15, and like 10 years down the road is super famous, and Jess Rose is a no name?

But I still sort of liked following the recovery of that bag from the first Cassie video, so I think I would enjoy watching events unfold even if I couldn't participate directly. Also, I think the LG15 creators would be waaaaay more responsible and tasteful in the execution of an ARG than whoever's behind this Cassie stuff.

A lot of you have PMd me and told me that since this is my forum I am free to moderate it as I see fit. I am locking this thread. If you don't like it, you can leave. This is borderline dangerous, and if you wish to keep discussing it I suggest you find somewhere else to do so.
This is not part of The Creators.
This is something else entirely.
This needs to die now.
The Cassie forum needs to stay to Cassie canon, for now, and definately not CassieIsWatching.
Thanks.

They definitely didn't have to try to claim that Jessica was being threatened, though. Plenty of stuff in their own admitted videos could be claimed to do that, given all the creepy hints they drop about her fate. Of course, this could all be another hoax, I guess. Controversy never hurt this project, that's for sure. I strongly disagree. Do you believe that if any of the mainstream media which has just covered all of this had gotten wind of the Manson thing, would not have so lovingly eaten it up. They don't care either way ... a story is a story, the nastier the better. And nothing like exposing somebody and then even hinting at more sinsister stuff. The result no more LG15. If the Creators were actually stupid enough to orchestrate a game that would invite people out into an iffy location late at night, an invitation I might add that even a veteran ARGer turned down as too weird, you don't think we might have quite possibly saved them from themselves here? *shakes head*
