The Set of Five

Five videos were released as a series (Everyone Hates Cassie: What a poor, lonely girl., They Attack Cassie! Is Daniel next? He crossed the line., What ever happened to that girl, Cassie?, Cassie is Lying, Cassie Tells Lies, Cassie Does Not R.I.P. (Rest In Peace)). This series featured the same pattern of text and sound.

The same music is used through out the set.
In the bottom right, hieroglyphs appear and fade out.
The same video, with different coloration, appear in each.
Letters fall into place below the face that are statements of guilt. (This is also spoken)
A word, written in dots of light, scrolls across the screen.
We hear audio from Bree or Cassie videos.
A key Cassie phrase appears over the girl’s head.
The scrolling word from before then scrolls back the other way.
A false youtube ending.
OpAphid's logo with backwards audio.

The last three have slight variants on this theme and are discussed more thoroughly in their pages.

Upon the release of Cassie Does Not R.I.P. (Rest In Peace) we were told that we had our set of five videos and had to "find purity in the order".

The first step was the hieroglyphs that were at the beginning of the five Cassie videos. Each video had hieroglyphic numbers that were fractions. The football means fraction with assumed numerator 1. The lines are 1s. The sideways symbol is 1/2. The union symbol (upsidedown u) is 10.

The fractions when added and reduced become 1/5, 2/5 and so on which gives us this video order which was later verified by the bug herself.
Whatever Happened to That Girl, Cassie
Cassie Does Not R.I.P.
Cassie is Lying, Cassie Tells Lies
Everyone Hates Cassie
They Attack Cassie

The further analysis was with regards to the words infront of the face. These lines are admissions of guilt that are a twist on the 42 Declarations of Innocence (AKA the 42 Declarations of Purity) that are associated with the Egyptian Goddess Ma'at (Goddess of Truth, Balance and Order).

When the fractions are used to put the videos in order the declarations appear as

I have judged hastily and harshly
I have acted with guile and insolence
I have beared false witness and supported false allegations
I have taken god's name in vain
I have been unduly proud and acted with arrogance

When you look up the declarations you can find the corresponding numbers
21
38
14
28
39

If you called Cassie in her game then the numbers 213 set off little bells of glee. When (213) 814 2839 is called it leads to an outgoing voice mail message which Tigerlilylynn has preserved here. OpAphid can also be reached via Skype.
After deciphering the number we were to message OpAphid with what we believed our instruction to be.

The message said:
Each success only buys an admission ticket to a more difficult problem.
It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong.
Mistakes are the portals to discovery.
Alas, never interrupt an enemy when he is making a mistake.
It is possible to fail in many ways, while to succeed is possible only in one way.
Do what’s right, the right way, at the right time.
A story is told as much by silence as by speech.
Except in this case.
And then wait for further instruction.
These lines are quotes with a few linking words inserted.
