Chat Restored, Neverending Breeniverse, and Miles' Rockstar Status

The LG Chat was restored to service yesterday, and a good time was had by all... fans erupted in a frenzy of questions and meeping when "The Creators" aka Miles entered the chat room to check on us. So much for debugging, we had questions, and Miles was soon snared by the rabid mob. Actually, he was very nice and, in addition to DeathsLie's list, here are a few tidbits I picked up...

The most important question was asked by me. It was:

QtheC: Okay, we have to know ... just one question, okay 2 ... is Gemma alive, and will there ever be Bree vs. Gemma kung-fu fighting? (please please please)
The Creators: Ahhh, Gemma... I guess we'll all have to wait and see.

Okay, maybe a little more signifcant, Miles also told us that the story they are telling will "never end," that there is a large and complex universe they are creating behind the lonelygirl15 story. Bree's story is just the beginning.

We told Miles about the "LG15 Today" blogspot, and he checked it out, and we expressed our appreciation that fans could download complete lonelygirl15 videos. Miles said:

The Creators: By the way, all the videos you guys make are great... keep 'em coming and look for some really sweet "storytelling" features in the next monthish.

We had a great conversation about the freakishly wide separation of Bree's eyes, with several fans expressing their attempts to grow eyebrows like Brees while Miles patiently filled us in on the details of LG15's cameras. Here are some excerpts, to give you an idea of just how patient Miles is. (I edited out the simultaneous conversation about vets and testicular implants on dogs)...

The Creators: I think the webcam makes the eyes look a little farther apart
Snookumz07: Cuz you film on Fisheye thingy riigghhhtt?
QtheC: Of course, it could be the fish-eye effect of the webcam, but that seems very farfetched compared to the android theory.nylon: it is done om webcam then? i thought it was filmed with a normal cam
The Creators: yeah, the webcam has a slight fisheye to it
Maddie: Bree's eyes -- the highlight of our talk! :o hah
The Creators: we use bothThe Creators: 4x3 is webcam but 16x9 is camcorder
rosieiswatching: is beacsue the cam they use is round so it has a
pan on it
Snookumz07: I wanna no what cam you use! :o Random..
sarahboo: i love jess's eyebrows they are fantastic

blackitty: lol j/k
Dream: Creators, sooo, do you have a little spoiler for us? Or like anything on the Deacons?
Snookumz07: Are those eyebrows real :o *Screams and runs*

And here is a little more chat excerpting, about Miles' new rockstar status, scrubs, and Tachyon coolness. (again, I have cut out simultaneous chatting about 7-11, pets, slurpees, etc.):

Dream: Creators, are we ever gonna see Tachy on cam?
QtheC: Tell us the truth Dr. Miles Creator, this is the most popular you have ever been in your life, isn't it? You are a rock star! lol
The Creators: LOL Q... wait you never heard about me before this? I thought I was always famous

gemmas flatmate: Creators you made a fantastic watchers in Human Ransom!
The Creators: thanks flatmate
rosieiswatching: OMG yeah it was so cool
blackitty: lol creators
WatchingOne: Best vid ever

Well, this article is far longer than the "short summaries" we are supposed to be aiming for on this blog (forgive me modelmotion), but I thought some folks who were not there might like a little taste of the chat sessions. Most interesting to me was that Miles of The Creators is a real person and is interacting directly with fans. For more on their approach to creating lonelygirl15 and encouraging fan creations and interaction with the story, there is was a good article in Wired Dec '06 here: http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/14.12/lonelygirl.html?pg=1
