This is all fair enough. My views are wildly different, but I suppose that's what happens when you're on different sides. ;) And I think your speculations are plausible.

My one question is with this: "First off, keep in mind that Dan almost exclusivly replies and writes his blogs for Seddie fans. He almost never brings up Creddie, nor even tweets Creddie fans."

But in the Fun Facts, he DOES address both ships: "As most of you know, I usually don't talk about "seddie" and "creddie". But I do feel I should say this: TO ALL FANS OF iCARLY: Please be nice to each other."

Since he already openly acknowledged both ships in the beginning of the Fun Facts, I think it's fair to say he could be talking to either ship later on. It could be for us. There's nothing saying it isn't. But I think it's equally likely it could be for you (by you I mean your shipmates in general). If something Seddie-related DOES happen, then "maybe you'll be happier with the next iCarly episode" would obviously be meant for the Creddiers.

Also, after the whole iSAFW debacle Dan made a comment at the end of his blog he wrote addressing the situation, saying, "For those of you who were disappointed in iStart A Fan War… I think the vast majority of you will be very happy in the next few months. I'd rather not say more than that because I don't want to spoil anything.  But something HUGE will be happening on iCarly in the next few months, and I think it will make a lot of fans extremely happy – especially those who felt they were mislead by the promos for iStart A Fan War."

I would think, here, that he must be talking about iOMG. The main reason people were upset over iSAFW was because they felt the promos were saying that something would actually happen on the romance front, and iOMG is the only regular episode left of the season and the only one with some sort of potentially shippy implications.

So who was he talking to with that statement? Because if he only addresses Seddiers in his blog, then it would stand to reason he was telling us we'd be happy with an upcoming episode. And now, that episode is here, and he's telling us we might be happier with a different episode? I just don't feel like that makes sense. Unless he was flat-out lying in his FanWar blog, but I don't feel like that's the case, honestly.

I think there's three options: 1) The iSAFW blog was directed at Seddiers, and the note at the beginning of the FF at Creddiers 2) The iSAFW blog was directed at Creddiers, and the note at the beginning of the FF at Seddiers 3) Dan lied to everyone in the iSAFW blog. I find #3 pretty unlikely, so I would say it's either #1 or #2. Which one it is just remains to be seen.
