At half mast, the black hoard flies aloft. While over the city, the black spike is burning. Two will fall while one will conquer. The overlord will cast down upon his toads. Bukanator.

If it isn't really him it might lead to some interesting hijinks anyway. Never quoted myself before, but it appears my prediction of hijinks has come to fruition... Wacky hijinks at that! He liketh the Stoli, so we are on a good path. The Dragonfly is always open! But I would like to know: What beith this creature that hails itself the Bukanator? And to what aim doth it post? Jay, Word on the chin zits... ETA I just can't resist this (ducks): Bukanator is Watching!

Hmm ... I am confused now. Um, I was confused after page one of this thread. I missed a lot of the drama with Buka - I think I was traveling. Could someone, in 50 words or less, please tell me what happened? Thank you. Merci. Gracias. Dankie. Wa'-Do. Spaceba (this doesn't look right but I think my head will implode trying to converrt it into cyrillics).

Um, I was confused after page one of this thread. I missed a lot of the drama with Buka - I think I was traveling. Could someone, in 50 words or less, please tell me what happened? BailMom - There is an entry on Bukanator on Lg15pedia. But quickly, Bukanator was the "#1 LG15 fan" who "founded" the lonelygirl15.com fansite and "phorum", only to let it linger unmoderated and uncared for. He came in the phorum from time to time with odd posts and moderated with broad strokes (combining threads, deleting threads, etc.) He also posted on the YT comment threads of the earliest videos. His backstory was he was a 37 year old russian web designer living in San Francisco, who grew up in South Africa. As a part of the original LG15 mystery, he fascinated a number of us in the phorum.

Hmm... the long and short of it is that there may or may not, now or at some time, have been hard feelings between members of the lg15 creation team. Per Californian journalist Candace Murphy, one of those members allegedly might or might not have run out and blabbed stuff despite perhaps having signed an NDA. Possibly because said person might have had said person's feelings hurt after possibly not doing what said person was hired or otherwise brought in to do, or possibly after said person had reservations about the plans for implementing the project, oer perhaps there was a clash of egos among a team of intelligent, creative under-age-30 young men, or someone made mistakes, or someone neglected duties because he was more interested in his Burning Man project, or... you know, something. Allegedly. And this person may or may not, but probably WAS, originally the person manning the cyborg character puppet Bukanator, but at some point stopped being the person manning Bukanator, whereupon someone else may have taken up the puppet, or possibly not, leading possibly to some neglect, intentional or otherwise, of a forum, after which either the creative team genuinely got outed or juuuuuuust barely possibly were already nearing a stage where they were ready to go public and so helped, or allowed, or accidentally on purpose leaked info to Baby Foremski the Formorian, or juuuuuuuuuust barely possibly said leak came from ex-buka 1.0, only why the heck that would happen is beyond me, but then again why ex-buka 1.0 would have tried to be all karen silkwood with candacemurphy to begin with is sort of odd, but this may or may not be water under the bridge, whereupon ex-buka 1.0 might or might not have made up with his former comrades and taken up the mantle again, or possibly not and current buka 2.0 might be the extremely talented megadork miles, or possibly not and we are being happily and cleverly hoaxed, or possibly.... uhm, not.
It's like talking about scientology, you have to throw in a bunch of "allegedly"s and "maybe"s and stuff. You know? Like maybe we are actually part of the ARG. Or Buka is, you know, an AI like wintermute, or we're all just .... confused. But happily so. Because it's kind of cool.
Cleared it right the hell up, didn't it Bailey'sMom? We all on square one again?

I knew it all the fraking time! Buka is a Leica wielding-Stoli Swilling Cylon.
I fear the Curious Botanist and our intrepid Law Student are not far behind. Down the rabbit hole indeed...

Hmm, probably under 50 if you edit out the "possibly"s and the "or not"s.

Some missions require I don Leica capability, mostly it's just 'jacking into the ice' the way we cyborgs do. Stoli, only on days like these, wheatgrass brain vites as shots are standard though. Cylon, Elvis, don't know what those mean. Ceylon? yes! Arthur C. Clarke contributed to some of my early neural nets
Noasinger, nice changelog history. But you got my version number wrong.

buka, are cyborgs allowed to marry in the state of California? I'm a sucker for flattery.

Thanks Alissa, I hope Hye does not post this on the phorum. The cassholes would stake out his house... That would NOT be cool Hye, are you listening!

Haha, I made sure not to post it there, those people are NUTS. I trust our little forum crew. I figured there was no big deal about addresses on here after the Ken Goodfried splashing about, however I forgot that was in a pre-Cassie age. I totally understand, chalk it up to temporary insanity brought on by unfinished papers (or started) on sixteenth century English Catholic writers! I sound like Bree...
