Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeez, that's a blast from the past. Wasn't it 2007, though? My CD is boxed up somewhere and my cassette's long gone. But yeah, discussion was rampant when the album was released, then died out, and then popped back up in '06 (or '09 if you're right), and then, of course, some lingering, angry discussion the year after. I don't think I ever saw speculation they were supposed to break up, though; I thought it was more like they were gonna put out some incredible mega-album they'd been writing for years, or a blowout tour or something.

Didn't someone ask him about it at some point, probably after the date had passed, and he was just like "Oh, I don't know, I just threw it in there"?

This. During the residencies in Asheville and San Francisco, he'd spend 20-30 minutes after each show talking to fans and actually gave a lot of cool little insights. Someone asked him about this (maybe even Monte) and the fact that he brought the band back in 2007. IIRC, he did not even remember it, and said something along the lines of "if it's in there, it's because I thought it sounded cool."

There was also done kind of serial number for the reissues (I think it was from Gish to MCIS) with a hidden "message" (I think it was something like "fuck you" "we love you" "we hate you").

Haven't read it in ages, but must have misremembered the year.
There must have been something planned to some degree though, would be nice to know exactly what.

I think it was Siamese Dream as well. I want to say they said "suck my dick" and "eat my pussy", or something along those lines. During the SP/Manson tour, someone here claimed to have asked Billy about it during one of the pre-show Q&As, and he said Bill thought it was funny and wanted to see how long it would take people to notice it. There's no video I've ever seen of that conversation, so it may not have happened.

I asked him on a Q&A if he knew anything about it and he said he did.

Did he elaborate at all, or just one of his one word answers?

He acknowledged he knew about it and it sounded like it was his idea. I might still have the screenshot of his reply, I posted it here but can't find the thread
