Millions of fans and they fucked it up

[wixy15]

So I haven't watchd the last however many video's but it sounds like she hasn't done the ceremony and is turning her back on the 'religion?'

This is utter shit. That is what made it interesting in the first place. Have they seriously messed it up?

Glad I stopped watching.

I may be reading this wrong, but methinks Wixy is bitter.

[milowent]

the quintessential wixy post.

I'm not sure bitter is the correct discription.

I just think how good it could have been. I remember those nights we spent in chat talking about what might happen and when and why. None of us even dreamt the religion would disappear, did we?

I take it you two aren't dissapointed?

Is the story going anywhere?

You know I just got to the point where I developed ceremony-fatigue. I don't come back so much for the LG15 stuff as much as I do for all the folks who post here - even people like you, Wixy! You really should check out the "Sam Has 7 Friends" IMS that we're following.

Don't you dare drag this thread off topic. I am interested as to whether people think they have cocked it up.

Millions of fans is a gross exaggeration.
And the sense of the forum is that since the ceremony was dropped, the series has actually improved. Also the ceremony is not cancelled, Bree still might be stuck in it. I'd suggest watching all videos before jumping to conclusions like this.
Also watch your language, especially in thread titles of all things.

Or what?

Anyway, millions, yes an exaggeration. Well done. Badge for you.

They only dropped the ceremony because they made a royal cock up of it. It could have been so good. I was so intrigued.

Ok so maybe it has picked up a bit since, but well, that was the whole point of the series, wasn't it?

It's hit and miss dude. They veer off into total shark jumping territory and then swerve back into the material that made it great in the first place.

Bottom line: Maddeningly inconsistent quality with a chance of becoming a total train wreck, but salvation may be possible with solid scripting for the rest of the run (kinda skeptical of this...).

Oh, and welcome the fuck back!

I'm wondering.. Why did you leave in the first place? I don't buy about being deceived by LG15.. I don't see you heart broken so easily for such a minor inconvenience..

I speak for no one but myself. For me, I got into this because of the real/fake mystery. After the unveling, I was sucked into the plot, because of the foreshadowing, and had to watch until 10-12 cause of Crowleymas. Now it's Nov. 5 and every video is just more foreshadowing. IMO, yes, they f-ed it up and it was disappointing. But I'm still interested in the whole meta-thing. The behind-the-scenes. It's like a sports team you like, losing a game. Or a band you like having a disappointing album. If you're a fan, you stick with them, cause you know that they were once great, and they could be again. The ups and downs are a part of the ride.
And just like people criticize their favorite teams and talk about what they think is wrong and the managers and the players. I think it's fine to criticize LG. It doesn't mean I still don't watch every episode and post on these boards every day like the total fan that I am. You can be disappointed in something and still love it.

I lost interest. It wasn't interesting anymore. The video's lost their originallity, it wasn't new and exciting. There was a balance between Bree being goofy and a story being told. PArts of the sotry weren't followed up which was sloppy, we were given clues that didn't go anywhere. It then became more about the story and the continuity vanished.
