As if I hadn’t been teasing it enough yet. I hope you all enjoy them. I don’t think I’m being unfair when I say that they’re a little rough around the edges; it’s really part of the charm.
Also, information is hard to come by, so please do use the comments on the profile to clear up any bad information or fill in any gaps.
Here’s an appetizer:
I’d like to comment on the profile, but the Tell me I’m wrong box™️ appears to have disappeared..
So it has … I just installed some code that didn’t seem to have done anything, so I’m still looking for an answer. I’ll come back when I have something that works.
Can you look now and let me know if the box is back? I changed a few settings too, but I may be cached too much to see the updates and I hate to clear all of my history.

One other thing I was going to mention, though, is that their hard luck story is even hard luckier than two-fifths of the members jumping ship: More than once, someone promised them a debut, but never came through. That includes one dude just disappearing with their money..
Holy crap, that’s amazing/terrible. Would you mind expounding on that at all? I have a ton of respect for Parallel, and I’d love to add that to their story, busted-ass on-page comments notwithstanding.
