Trivia / Shadow of Israphel

• Artist Disillusionment: Lewis Brindley has said that he's really tired of people badgering him about Shadow of Israphel, and that it actually demotivates him. A TikTok video by the Yogscast even features Lewis running away as his response to anyone asking about Shadow of Israphel.
• Creator Backlash: While Turps didn't actually work on SOI himself, he feels that the fandom has over-rated the show and that the Yogscast has made better content since then.
• Series Hiatus: When the series seemed to abruptly stop putting out new episodes in the middle of season three, there were/was/is lots of speculation that it had become an Orphaned Series. Lewis has said that it simply can't be continued at the moment because of real life constraints (such as certain mods not updating), failed attempts to relaunch it and some of the original crew not being around any more (not that it stopped complaining about SOI's hiatus or speculation he was lying). Every once in awhile they throw in a Shout-Out in some of their other series alluding to/joking about SOI taking so long/being constantly delayed.
• Throw It In!: Going hand-in-hand with going Off the Rails. Mr. Astley, for example, was not intended to be a creeper; the creeper had just randomly spawned in the dark basement that was meant to store the redstone mechanisms to play a noteblock rickroll as a door trigger that was never finished.
