Oh. My. Groening.

We know who Cloak is...and I must say, it was totally unexpected. And pretty creepy, really.

"Well I don't think that my stories are very good at plot twists or anything, so I don't know why there was such speculation over it.

The cloaked figure is Cassidy. What was going to be built up was that Cassidy was extremely obsessive over Phil (more than Elly of Joel) and was trying to kill off the other suitors so that she and Phil could be together. She kills Rya, she disguised Malcolm as Evil to try and get Elly booted, then in later episodes, tries to kidnap and kill Elly, as well as trying to off June when Andrew tries to hook up with her. There's more to it than that but that's all the pertinent info you need. Like I said, not really that big of a twist or anything."

Crazy.

So, that's it. Mystery solved.

EDIT: Dangit, when I tell someone something, they jump to the topic quicker than me. Thanks a lot, Mandy.

That was kind of leaning a bit close to semi-obvious - she was acting a bit weird in the later episodes.

So hah, Clan! "He" isn't Andrew!

(insert booyah smiley here)

But still - pretty unexpected.

Sweet. I thought it would be someone like her or Andrew.

_________________

What's weird is that, to me, she seemed to be one of the most innocent characters on the series. Naive, even. Not the kinda person who'd kill someone in cold blood.

Nice sig, Disk. I love that thread so much just for that.

Heh, thanks.

Uh, I've pretty much complained to my maximum with Jello and Mandy on MSN. I'm all out of anger (especially after I massacred a free trial AOL CD with a flashlight, today. ).

Note: DS_Kid does not have anger issues nor does he like killing other things by the name of "Disk." He just needed something to destroy for whatever reason, and a flashlight/screwdriver combo was the best tool.

Me too. That was great.

I did it.

I emailed TKeely.

Here's my email. I know it's not gonna work, but I might as well try, right?

I can't even read the forum, so I don't know what he did.

Bah. Will someone please explain. I thought it was that he didn't have the money either...

Y'know, didn't the topic I quote on the Bonus Stage Forums show that it's just not the money Matt didn't want about Bonus Stage? He got bored of it; if he was really in extreme financial suffering and couldn't continue Bonus Stage, then he couldn't continue his other flash toons, as well. I don't know how time consuming his other toons are (as I've never watched them), but I don't think money would even hamper his other productions, no matter how long it took him to make an episode of something else.

That will be all. <_< >_>

*gets shot*

Yes, I find it sad that Bonus Stage is going down at 88 rather than 100. But even if Matt's future projects are just half as good as Bonus Stage, we'd have something very enjoyable.

_________________

He discussed with Matt the possibility of producing new episodes that TKeely would fund. They were going to discuss the terms of the contract, but TKeely never got back to Matt. Thus, Bonus Stage ended.

Hey, he did one thing right. He got BS to not end on that creepy music. And he gave us hope for new episodes. We shouldn't be mad that he never got back to Matt. We should still be glad that he did something.

87. I mean, it would be good to go out on 88, but don't. 88.

I'm pretty sure he's going to put that Missed Faillion thing up as episode 88, so newcomers won't be confused at #1.

Or not. Depends how lazy Matt wants to be about it.

_________________

Ugh, guys, just get over it. From Matt's recent posts, it's really obvious he wants nothing more to do with BS, money or no. Just let him move on.



No, Car 3/Missed Failion went up before TKeely appeared.

Oh, my bad. I didn't think so.

At least he tried, I guess...

Yeah.

Oh, and the geek in me is REALLY annoyed that the series didn't end at episode 86. SERIOUSLY. That would've been pretty awexome.

^ I thought it was most appropriate to end with a time travel plotline ending on episode 88.

^I agree.

Whoa. I just watched the entirety of Bonus Stage this weekend due to the positive vibes on the board and then all this drama happens.

It's sad to see that Bonus Stage is over. I can relate to the burnout that Matt feels, though. Some of the last episodes, though great, seemed to reflect the frustration of putting together a series with little reward. (The Space Toast gag, I think, shows what he felt about his whinier fans.) I know how it feels to want to try something new.

Part of me wants to think that Tkeely doesn't exist and it was just some elaborate gag that Matt has pulled as an April Fool's joke, the Cassidy=cloak thing is a red herring to throw everyone off, and Matt will finish BS after getting his jollies off of everyone on the BSWiki message boards.

Waitaminute.

...

Anyway, if it is real, I don't think this will be the complete, final and utter end to Bonus Stage. I think every creator eventually goes back to his creations, because, really, the characters are a part of him. It may take a year or five years. I have high hopes BS will be back.

Cloaked Figure being Cassidy was my second choice, with CF being Andrew as my first. Andrew's definitely in cahoots with Cassidy undoubtedly.
