I go take a shower and stuff and come back to see I've missed the (re-)rise and (re-)fall of Bahamagate. I hate Dan so much liajsdfasdf (tbh I'm way more amused than annoyed but oh boy does this troll know how to play with us)

Personally I think it would make the most sense for him to have gone there and back for work-related stuff for a few hours. I could imagine a restaurant doing fake plane tickets, but tickets that actually correspond to a real flight and an official-looking visa in a real-looking passport? That's stretching it too far. I hope we get to know what really happened some time soon in the future.

This is so weird, I was all "cool holiday", then "cheeky git thinks we're all dumb clucks", then "ohh I get it, cute joke got same reaction as any news" and now "huh?" How on earth do people find apparently genuine tickets to prove anything, no wonder they hide and misdirect.

Playlist has been fun, though. Only have slow wifi at hotel, wonder if I'll ever catch up with the thread, but it's been fun and I'll write more later. Maybe in a week once home. Trolling cheeky boy aside, the guys were great onstage, in their panel and their meetup (we were so lucky).

It's a lot of fun speculating / procrastinating when I should be prepping for work. I'm thinking it was an afternoon daytrip to kill time - just because. It's a quick and inexpensive flight, something fun and unusual, and a place Danielson's never been to before.

same it kind of feels like watching real life mystery adventure novel unfold.

I sort of hope that Dan did that on purpose cause he knows that the phandom loves predicting stuff that's happening around them ('you see all') and no one predicted this Bahamas thing. To keep phandom occupied, and maybe it's clue for the March or February thing. Or just for the simple fun. Cause it's really entertaining :D
but Phils vid was still nice. Best part was him rubbing that huge vase on his face that doesn't even make sound

Right. So, Dan tried, but back to the topic at hand... the beard-room.

Ya think Phil can even walk between bed and dresser without running into something? Does he have to sit on the bed in order to open the drawers? How long will it take for us to actually get a glimpse of their bedroom? I dream.

That stamp is really confusing me, idk anything about travelling but is it allowed to put those on passports as a joke? Or to make a fake passport for that? This is so funny, rn my best guess is a part of a new YouTube advert/series/the official Vidcon video (do they even make those, i don't know). "Let's fly a youtuber to Bahamas for a few hours" sounds catchy, eh?

But tbh it would be so Dan to make up something like this just for the lolz :gg:

I'm trying to study for finals and this is highkey distracting. But also conspiracy theory time: Dan is using this to Haru something else they don't want us knowing.
double conspiracy: the thing they don't want us knowing is that Miles is their kid.
. But in all seriousness: WTF Daniel.

I just picture him turning to someone else before posting the tweet that set it all off and being like, "Wanna see something funny? Watch this."
And suddenly, the phandom becomes detectives for the evening.

Unrelated, but I just found this tweet and was wondering if anyone knew the context?
Is it based off of that photo of him with the slicked hair?

Oh dear. No idea re: the hair. I just wanted to ask something, as I've noticed several of you use Haru or to mean something else. Please enlighten me.

Ooo, darnit I don't know how to do this but I really want to be at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter right now!

I think that's from when he chemically straightened his hair.

Dan kept his Haru pillow on his bed for a lot of liveshows, but wouldn't acknowledge it was there. When he was asked about it he'd always just say he didn't know what the person was talking about, or go "Pillow? What pillow?" So has just come to symbolize something Dan or Phil do/say that they never acknowledge they did/said.

Honestly the whole Haru thing is more proof that Dan is a massive troll who loves fucking with us.

Wow, a lot has been happening. I just had to read through ten pages in one day. o.o

I don't have much to say about the whole "Bahamas" situation, although I'm curious to see how it unfolds. xD

I love their new selfies!

(A bit late on this one) The new Sims video is great but I wish Dab and Evan's hair hadn't changed...or that they would change it back. Not into their shaved heads. LOL

And I'm sad to say that Phil's new video is the first time I've struggled to watch one of his videos. I almost couldn't make myself finish it and was covering my ears for a lot of it. I HATE ASMR. It is almost physically painful to hear it to me. Gives me a headache, hurts my ears, makes me tense up and cringe. It's all like nails on a chalkboard. People put some of the worst possible sounds in those videos.

I have the image of him grabbing a passport of some uk fellow who had been previous day to Bahamas and his restaurant stub taking a picture of those together while whispering 'that is for all the creepshots during playlist. now go wonder how you missed this happening'

revenge fun or a clue or :D

I assumed he was only messing with us but if the flight times match up and we can't disprove it, very interesting

If he did go, I wonder why? Just for fun? A secret project?
And how long did he stay? A day? 10 minutes? A couple hours?

I have no answers whatsoever... I'm leaning more toward the whole thing being some sort of elaborate joke and he didn't actually go to the Bahamas, but I'm loving all the theories. Either way, Dan is such a troll and I find it hilarious. I would do the exact same thing if I were him.

The guitarist of a band I was a pretty big fan of a couple years ago once tweeted about flying to LA for like 15 minutes and left everyone on a cliffhanger similarly to what Dan seems to be doing. It turns out that he literally flew to LA and back straight away because he wanted to reach the highest frequent flyer status and that was the cheapest flight that got him the distance to achieve it. So I'm not ruling out anything and I'm feeling prepared for any explanation Dan may (or may not) give us
As for the beardroom theory, I definitely believe it's just a set. Phil has pretty much always filmed his videos in front of a bed with bedding of the same colour scheme, it doesn't seem far-fetched for him to want the same set-up in this apartment. Especially since the room can also serve as a guest bedroom and a place for him to chill if he wants some alone time. If the room which is said to be Dan's bedroom is the same size, I might second guess it, but I'm fully expecting it to be much larger with a king size bed if I'm being honest. With Phil still filming in "his bedroom" and Dan having a separate filming space, their supposedly separate bedrooms being on different floors, and now seeing how tiny that room is in comparison to his room in the last apartment, while I'm definitely open to the idea of them having separates bedroom, I can't help but to assume they're sharing one unless Phil has another bedroom upstairs or something

Also, the lack of windows makes me feel like the lower floor where all the filming locations are is a basement? Is that even a possibility? Maybe it's just the angles we're getting and/or some really good blinds/shades, but I'm not seeing any signs of windows.

Also also, I feel like all I do on here is compliment their outfits, but I love Phil's jumper in the video, the roses are so pretty
