I understand the reasoning behind making this its own thread. I wonder though if the topic deserves that much space.
Having arrived at the Cove much to late to savor the scandal that was CiW I look forward to the day when some newbie asks me to fill them in on the old Glenn/OpAphid scandal. Then I will feel like a Vet (Veteran that is - not Veterinarian - that is a whole different plot scandal)

milo, i like your new avatar ^_^
if any of the glenn fans are like me, they are probably too depressed to really be vocal on this matter, hence the lack of traffic. i hope we eventually learn glenn's side of the story.

I wasn't really that much into the ARG, but I feel sorry for those who were. It's like missing a jigsaw piece. It'll never be solved. I'm more annoyed that they didn't really keep them separate. Tachyon was starting to have a bigger role, and now she and the others have just vanished. Even if they make no more of the Op, Tach, Bro videos - they should at least eventually tell us what happened to them all in the plot. Not that I was even a fan of any of them, but it needs some better explanation. ETA: And not just that they died on their way back to their home planet!

Oh STFU already, do they need to end *every* message with this.

Oh STFU already, do they need to end *every* message with this. Hear, hear! Stop promising me even better videos, puzzles, fan interaction and websites. You think some marketing dude told them to always end announcements on a positive note? interestingly, the phorum thread also has little traffic (is it glennui?), but the announcement itself seemed worthwhile to break out. The reason for the lack of activity, I think, is that they were just announcing what everyone else had already figured out. Op, Tach, and Bro had posted farewells on their profiles. TAAG hasn't uttered their names since Bree came back from Tachy-camp. Glenn was no longer credited on the videos... you don't even need to read between the lines.

LOL!!!! Tempestarii..I've said it before and it bears repeating: "You are a remarkable woman!"
The C's:
Lady Tempestarii:
I have been meaning to point out that little catch phrase of theirs for quite some time! You can only say something like that once - maybe twice - but twice only if you followed through one the first one.
I can't quite put my finger on it but something about it gives me the "jimmies". Sometimes it just plain pisses me off that they think they can keep saying this shit without EVER following through.
It begins to sound like something from "A Clockwork O"
In general I am never quite sure if I have sympathy for these guys working SO hard and getting so many bad breaks, or if I feel like kicking their ass for perpetuating this stuff.
oh well..WTF do I knnow about this stuff anyway?

It begins to sound like something from "A Clockwork O" The whole thing does feel like "a tolchok in the yarbles." Like surrealisticpill, I am a fan of Glenn's work. He does have other fans. He will be successful.
