It was an obvious reference to the Masked people, we know that they are not twins, but this came RIGHT AFTER the entry where Alex gets attacked by Masky and Hoody, it's just metaphoric.

And before you post this kind of stuff please investigate before, the message from Classified said this

''the twins do you know what he did''

Twins = Masky and Hoody
Do you know what he did? = 1 or 2 entries ago was the one where Alex killed bruce with the rock.

Obvious reference is obvious, we are never going to solve anything if we raise more questions besides the ones we already have
Except the video was posted. That would have been a far more pointless question since everyone SAW what he did (or Jay's written description of it). Asking do you know what he did referring to the assault we all saw is pretty dumb, and I don't think that's what TTA meant.

 		I liked the phone code, so I figured it would be worth a shot.
"Hey, what would happen if I typed all of those numbers into a phone?"
mkgdpw upmj

Then I just tried alphanumeric stuff:
feedcgi hhgf

The fact that it has exactly 26 numbers is definitely interesting.

EDIT: Put it in a hex editor for no reason, got this:
eT7.ˆvP......

So TTA is going to be the Vice President in the seventh ET movie?

That fits in perfectly with all the phone stuff omg

I don't personally think calling masky and tim "twins" is metaphoric at all, it doesn't really make any sense when you consider he could have just said "him". Tim and hoody can't be twins, because even though hoody is unrevealed, he wouldn't be saying "the twins" and talking about himself (you can't convince me that tta isn't solely hoody, so don't bother)

I still think it's something that's not been revealed yet

 		So, I tried, I really did, but...

I have no clue where to go with this code.

Of course, I'm also not a cryptographer, so...

 		Did anyone think that maybe it's actually not a code, but perhaps the key to another code somewhere? Rolling Eyes

I thought about this as well, but it doesn't seem to match up with any of the codes we haven't cracked.

Unless you look at the likely possibility that Hoody and Masky were created at the same time... born personalities you might say.

Since when does TTA take the straightforward route? Referring to Masky and Tim as metaphorical twins (which is a perfectly valid metaphor) wouldn't be any more cryptic than half of his BS. Yes, he could have just said "him", but he also could just tell us what's going on in plain English instead of using overly complicated codes which translate to messages that are still generally ambiguous. It works much better as simply foreshadowing the reveal of Tim's split personality. I doubt they would reveal any new twins, literal or metaphorical, this late in the game. You yourself said it would be ridiculous, yes?

At that point of time we already knew who Masky was and it was already revealed and confirmed, so what was the point, and:

TTA Not being straight foward?

Intermission = Did u see me? And hand drawing of Hoody sitting on a tree that was seen previous entry.

Version (I think) = Showing the red tower. Next video after that Jay goes to the red tower and finds a tape there.

Admission = Shows someone coming out of a previously locked door, next thing we know Jay goes through that door.

There are many examples of that, you are all OVERTHINKING stuff. This about the twins and the code have ALREADY BEEN CONFIRMED. It can be ridiculous to me or not. Doesn't change the fact that is obvious they are calling them twins because they both mask themselves in the same way.

If people didn't overthink stuff that much every thread on this page would be a lot of pages shorter

 		Speaking of overthinking, isn't this thread dedicated to cracking some numbers that most probably are just random BS?

Yes, those TTA videos were relatively straightforward, but they were all (with the exception of Version, which was released after Jay had decided to go to the Tower anyway) fairly cryptic nonetheless. If you can figure out what Session or Surveillance meant, by all means tell me.

Regardless, you're missing my point. We knew who Masky was, but we had no specific reason to assume a split personality was involved at the time. (Also, we already knew Masky and Hoody were working together and it was already revealed and confirmed so "what was the point".) And yes, there's no reason to overthink things if there's a more straightforward interpretation possible. But the thing about the twins has not been confirmed in any way unless I missed something big, and neither interpretation is more straightforward than the other.

It makes just about as much sense to assume he was talking about Masky and Tim as it does that Masky and Hoody, and frankly it's not particularly relevant or worth discussing any further either way. I stick by my interpretation because then it actually provides a valuable piece of foreshadowing to later events, but your interpretation works too. It doesn't really matter.

 		There's not enough "code" to crack. It's also possible it isn't a code, and is just a sign of Jay and Tim's jump through time, or it could be a key for a future code. Not enough to go off of.
