The Coalition In Transition?


The Coalition web site appears to have a new logo. This comes just days after an alternative web site claimed to be the Coalition. What is going on here? I guess we will just have to wait and see how it all plays out because the Coalition has always been very secretive about their operations.

The Coalition on LG15.com LGPedia.

The Coalition site just completed installation of a script that makes it possible for us to draw video rss feeds from YouTube to unique categories and user profiles. If you have a YouTube video account, and are interested in beta testing this function, please message admin or in_Choate_toil via their user profiles.

  1. Hmmm...
    Considering that the alternate website carries the name with a trademark symbol along with the WoW WF and ZXL videos, I'm guessing that's the one to look for. It looks like maybe FJ left the band.

  2. ..Oh! Sorry. Me again. I will register a real name one of these days.

    Bob Samuels posted in the forums promoting the new site with illustrations and talk of an upcoming coalition comicbook.

  4. This is kind of humorous, doesn't Facility J own the rights to the storyline that's being used for The Facility? It seems like a carbon copy of what their original plot was.

    I wonder what Fac J is gonna do next, some solo projects actually exceed the greatness of the original band after all.

  5. Hey, Bob thanks but we are confused. Wasn't facility J the entire basis of the coalition? And what about the original site. That still seems to be fully operational. Perhaps you left something behind?

  6. It's possible that crossover storylines still need to be ironed out if they're going their seperate ways. Doing that IG can be tricky I'd think. Thus the 'carbon copy' as you put it.

    True enough about solo acts. I wish the current FJ pm the best of luck as well as the Coalition creators.

  7. Don't you see?

    Facility J is the new Cassie!

  8. Actually the Coalition was a joint effort of the four seperate series. There is no single bases, though the facility was envisioned by all involved to be a common plot point.
    There were creative differences that have yet to be reconciled.
    The good news is that nobody has actually quit producing content.
    I'm sure there will be a few wrinkles in the days to come, but I have faith in the talent and professionalism of all involved.

  9. IC. So exactly who are you Bob and how do you fit into the story?

  10. At the moment, this blogspot won't accept my password (?) so I'll just post this as anonymous.

    Explaining my role in this is a mouthful, lol.
    Instead, I'd like to point you to my blogs

  11. Thanks, Bob, I think i read that a while back but it appears I need to read it again.

    ReplyDelete
  12. So, you know Wlll, Bob. How did you become friends?

    ReplyDelete
  13. lol...I take it you don't watch the Will O' Wisp series.

    ReplyDelete
  14. From Wikipedia:
    A coalition is an alliance among individuals, during which they cooperate in joint action, each in their own self-interest. This alliance may be temporary or a matter of convenience. A coalition thus differs from a more formal covenant. Possibly described as a joining of 'factions'.

    Maybe you should change your names to Faction A and Faction B..and then do rock,scissors to see who gets to be A and who gets to be B.

  15. Lets all drop our shorts and get our measuring tapes out....

    ReplyDelete
  16. Well i don't think I am the only one that is extremely confused by the Coalition. Perhaps you could take the time to explain what is going on Bob since you seem to know.

    ReplyDelete
  17. "lol...I take it you don't watch the Will O' Wisp series."

    Thats not a very good way to get new fans, ib ny humble opinion. As someone who doesn't view the Will O Wisp series I personally am unfamiliar with it as well. Frankly, no one has made an attempt to explain it to people who aren't already in the know.

    And truthfully, after such a sarcastic reply to an honest question I don't regret not watching it.

    And please keep your pants up if possible boys, no one wants to see that here.

  18. Oopsy Daisy, I meant In My, not Ib Ny.

    My apologies for the mistype.

  19. modelmotion, and everyone else interested in the Coalition, please visit us at www.thecoalitiontv.com :-)
    That is all.

  20. With this Coalition becoming factions...a change of venue might be in order.

    "

    Maybe they can film this and post it on Xtube, PornTube or BoobTube(does this exist? I dont think so..maybe I should create it..not for me mind you as I was breast fed and dont have an obsessive need for Boobs..just a very strong interest... but for the others who feel the empty feeling that being a Playtex baby can leave you with that only MASSIVE MAMMARIES can fill...but I digress....).

    ReplyDelete
  21. Bob do you have a brother Neil? You could start the Neil N Bob Coalition....it could fit the new concept..

    ReplyDelete
  22. but what about the original site? Why do we need to meet up at the new site?

    An OOG explanation is in Order at this point.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I am still trying to figure out where the Playtex baby fits into this.

    ReplyDelete
  24. OK, Bob I read thru that stuff. I just have one question. Who os Bell?

    ReplyDelete
  25. "modelmotion, and everyone else interested in the Coalition, please visit us at www.thecoalitiontv.com :-)
    That is all."

    Again, still not very cordial or inviting.

    You didn't have many playmates as a kid, did you Bob? Your social interaction skills with strangers seem to be greatly lacking.

    Also, I must agree with virginian9000, it would appear that an out of game explanation would be necessary.

    Unless of course, you just don't care if new people are confused. In which case by all means continue on playing with yourselves.

    Pun intended.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I think Bob just likes to talk all fancy. I don't even remember seeing him around before. But I am interested in his story even if it is a bit befuddled. Does anyone have a clue what he is actually talking about?

    Truth.

  29. I think maybe this is one of those times to wait for the dust to settle and then see where things lie, and whether they make sense.

    There was one comment that seemed the most informative:

    "BobSamuels said...

    I really hope the two sites will complement each other, and not try to compete and duplicate things - and it would be good if they became MUCH simpler and streamlined. Except for the story summaries, I pretty much ignored the old site and just used the lonelygirl15 forums coalition section and YouTube to follow the shows.

  30. Let me break this down for all you factionalized coalition "professionals". The Creators promised all us Schleps with a cam some TOOLS to help us tell their story..they promised us interactions..etc.. That never really happened to any degree worth mentioning. In fact because of some things that happened the Cs tightened the reigns if anything and told everyone "Piss off" as they ran to the bank.
    The Coalition was formed as I understand it as a means to help independent content creators find a framework for a basic mythos and back story with which to work..and to cross over..and work together..and create a synergy that would allow them to achieve things they could never achieve individually.. cept..as usual..the beast has too many heads(EGO) and they ALL have such different ideas(at least in the involved parties eyes)..they are tearing each other apart as evidenced by this Lacuna Coil(thats Italian for "empty spiral" and a band I really like.) the Coalition seems to be in.
    You can make denials about there being a problem..but..frankly.. there IS...because people NOT in the Coalition see it that way.. WE are the viewers...or potential viewers..our perceptions are everything with regards to that. Basically, people are getting confused...really confused..and possibly less amused.
    What you ALL need is a little less possessiveness with something I thought was created to bridge gaps and not create them. I don't know WHAT has caused this scism but it strikes me as not healthy.
    Just quickly right here..a solution...create a model that encompasses facility A-J and maybe others..then make a coalition of coalitions..it could lead to more adaptability and less tug of wars over how you want things to go. It also makes it easier to explain away inconsistencies between various storylines.
    Another solution would be a third party that maybe has some experience creating and posting videos that is not a member of the coalition and thereby not emotionally invested in the directions things go one way or another. I'd actually be willing act in this capacity. Just let me know..and SURE I am anonymous..but just let the robot of the interwebz know..and he can contact me. Anything shared with me in a confidence will be kept as such.
    Ciao!
