I did some math guys ...

so first I took the total amount of times the code sequences repeats and multiplied it by the number of codes there were which equals 42

counting the times words trasitioned in and out (including the sun) we get 15

counting the number scenes we get 6

ad that up you get 63

I looked up 63 in googke and the only thing I found

1 You, God, are my God,
earnestly I seek you;
I thirst for you,
my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
where there is no water.
2 I have seen you in the sanctuary
and beheld your power and your glory.
3 Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
4 I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands.
5 I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods;
with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
6 On my bed I remember you;
I think of you through the watches of the night.
7 Because you are my help,
I sing in the shadow of your wings.
8 I cling to you;
your right hand upholds me.
9 Those who want to kill me will be destroyed;
they will go down to the depths of the earth.
10 They will be given over to the sword
and become food for jackals.
11 But the king will rejoice in God;
all who swear by God will glory in him,
while the mouths of liars will be silenced.

so ... yeah ... I didnt it had any relevance but my good ol' friend Rain71 told me it was brilliant and that I should post it ... I don't know why.

That's clearly not relevant but the last line is still great

Somewhat OT: why do we call The Operator The Operator?
Was he given the name in the series and I missed it? Do Trosephim refer to him as TO?

Trosephim refer to him as TO, or at least they have for some time now- I think there may have been a point where they still called him Slender Man, but I'm pretty sure he's been Operator since sometime in S1.

No, they refer to him as The Operator. Stop being lazy.

Actually, the name came from Entry #11, the video of Alex drawing on pages, it showed the typical crossed circle drawn with a thick biro and the word "OPERATOR" written underneath. "That thing" has been known as the Operator OOG (and IG from TTA) ever since.

Still interested on seeing whether that means a surgical operator or telephone operator, though.

I mean he originates from a clinic (as far as we can tell) but he also does weird things to radio signals

I always wondered why people thought this. I mean, one of the informal definitions of the term Operator is "someone who acts in a specified, often manipulative, way."

I always took the fact that his name was the Operator to mean that, basically, he runs this shit.

The Code and Theories
Possible Code Solution for Null and some theories about Entry 83

Hey Everyone, first time posting, but I've really been giving some thought to both Null and Entry 83. I think I have possible solution for the code and some theories based on the new entry.So to start off with the solution. The code in Null is:

IA(Operator Symbol)NR
RPRYA
SIMHT
75EBX
84129
MRWIT

This code flashes 7 times before distorting with what seems to be Hoody's face to left of it. Now looking at the numbers sequentially from all the lines in the code (1,2,x,4,5,x,7,8,9) the 3 and 6 are missing. Well, the 3rd letter in the first line is the operator symbol, which seems pretty significant. So take the 3rd character from each line of code and we're left with (operator symbol, R, M, E, 1, W). So now there's the issue of the 6. Well there are only 5 characters to each line of code, however, there are 6 lines of code. So the 3rd character from the 6th line is null (which is the W). When you unscramble the remaining characters you are left with the message "1 MORE" (the operator symbol obviously being the O in MORE). When you pair that with the description of the video, I believe TTA is trying to say that there is one more location left.

Now my theory, after watching Entry 83 and with what I've seen in Null, is as follows:

Null seemed to be a sort of goodbye. The code flashed 7 times and then distorted with Hoody's face next to it. It's as if Hoody "nullified" himself by letting himself fall off the ledge in Entry 83. Which would make him the 7th person to have seemingly died and been taken away to the "Dark World". The 7 victims being Sarah, Seth, Brian, Amy, Jessica, that guy Alex attacked, and Hoody. Why Hoody would do it is unknown, but it seemed as if he was trying pass off everything to Tim. Like "Here take the mask and then you can have your pills", but Tim rejected the mask at first. So after a prolonged, acid-trip like chase, Hoody let's himself be killed and Tim gets the tape, the pills, and is forced back into Masky state. Hoody's torch has been passed.

In Null, TTA eluded to knowing Tim's secret for years, however, the were things he needed to "See" and "Hear". We, and more importantly Tim, saw a lot in Entry 83. I'm pretty sure he'll see and hear even more from that tape. But I think TTA's Quadrant entry relates to this as well. If you watch that video it's imagery seems remarkably similar to Entry 83, with frantic jumps between different locations and images of faces and people ghosting over the footage throughout the video. He taunts "Who Am I . . .I Am The Third". Now I know folks debate this, but I believe Brian was the 3rd victim. I also believe him to be Hoody. Now how can he be a victim twice, because as Hoody he is no longer Brian, he is "Null", Empty, nothing. Honestly, I'd be pretty disappointed if we didn't get to know for sure who Hoody really was, but I believe it almost doesn't matter. Whoever Hoody was is irrelevant, he's not anybody anymore. He's distorted and destroyed like Alex, but in a slightly different way. Because even though Alex doesn't wear a mask, he most certainly is not himself anymore. The mask just protects what little of that former identity is left. Besides, I think the 4 parts of the quadrant are all that remains now. . .Tim, Alex, The Operator, and the last location. Anyway, this just my thoughts, I look forward to some feedback and the rest of the series. Entry 83 was awesome!

I like this!
The most "stretch" is the number 6 being considered as 'null' and changing the W into an O.
But in general, I like the theory!
