Oh man I was so lost in the whole Jeff-Steph war until I saw the CYSTH blog and saw how she corresponds to Jessa. Though I love in one of her earlier videos Evan bolts behind them as of Jessa wasn't enough of a nod to the fans as well as the photo of the Hyrbrids in Hoagie heaven. I think that was around when EMH was at it's best.


I was a bit hasty in what I deemed "important." Canyouseethewords was important in ways other than what I said, but not every individual post was. As I joined after this, I didn't even bother looking at everything in the blog, "she's Jessa's friend & she's also being followed by Slenderman & Jeff blamed her for what happened to Jessa" is basically all that I needed to know.

yeah, another good point. I actually like the smash bros. idea but like you said if there are boring/poor/shitty series getting involved then it damages the crossover as a whole. I've cringed at each MLA crossover so far and Michael hasn't even appeared yet.


Also, I had no reason to follow them all since the beginning, because I wasn't expecting this big damn crossover. If it was planned during the beginning, or if it was a side story that wasn't really that important in the grand scheme of things, then it would be different.

Maybe I did jump to conclusions, but I'd place a hefty bet that the hasty writing off of Steph (if you can even call it that-I thought it was natural) was largely due to OOG reasons, which will always happen in the Slenderverse. People have lives and so far I think MH are only ones to make money from this and they lucked out. And of the crossover videos outside of the EMH channel very much seem to me to be stage-setting. Like I said before every series thus far has had a character for spouting exposition but none of them were complete antagonists. The character of HABIT allows characters to receive knowledge pivotal to the story's pace but doesn't give the protagonists any feeling of safety or security.


I thought it was abrupt. She was implied to be just as important as the 3 guys, but she barely appeared & then was killed offscreen. I realize that it is part of her character that she tries to avoid all of this shit as much as is possible, but you'd still think that Habit would want to show us something. Maybe it was for OOC issues, but I haven't heard anything about that.

Again, nail on the head. Which is kinda why I deemed the blog to be supplementary. There was important stuff on it, but not every post, and it's not like the story wouldn't make sense without it, videos like injustice go to show EMH covering their tracks as many people wouldn't find the blog.

But if you look at the perspective of a creator, there would be no way of knowing if the opportunity came up with collaborate another creator, especially when EMH started as the verse was still young then, there were no crossovers to begin with. Even if you wrote the story start to end, it always changes.

I dunno. She is important though, she's the fourth of the mining town four and is connected with Steph in the Corenthal letters, but her death wasn't fair. I was kind of hasty. I would have loved if HABIT drew it out. That said it was tragic with HABIT killing her child and eating it in front of her. We wouldn't hear if it was OOG because the guys care so much about the project that they don't want to break immersion for people.

I wouldn't want to cross over my shit at all, except in very rare circumstances. There not being an opportunity to cross over is just a sign that I shouldn't be doing it to begin with.

I forgot about that. That's really gross, Habs. Though I thought he killed her, then the kid. Evan & Jeff both have OOC blogs, though. I don't know how often they talk about EverymanHYBRID there, but they've probably done it even more often than I am aware of.

I suppose but since the beginning it was an ARG as apposed to a series. Crowd participation was highly encouraged so the prospect of crossing over probably grew from that. One point I forgot to mention earlier was that the foundation for the EMH/TT crossover were set a lot earlier than most people think.

No, killed the child first, hence he says to Steph in Next "I know you want to die, but not yet.....not until you hear her break." I have all three added on Facebook but seldom talk about. I follow Jeff's blog didn't know Evan had one, can you link it please?

 		Hey guys, I just thought of something. Based on what Vinny said when talking to Shaun Andersen, HABIT might be able to use this artifact "the hands" to create a weakness in Slenderman. If that were to happen, and some balance of power between Slendy and HABIT were to change, wouldn't that have consequences for all of the vlogs which are in the same universe as EMH? That might be why they are taking so long: a triple, maybe even quadruple crossover is coming.

Admittedly, I haven't followed MLAndersen0 much, so I'm not entirely sure what "the hands" are.

 		I thought he was talking to Evan.

I don't have the link. Every time I see it, I say I should bookmark it, but then I don't.

EDIT: I have to ask anyone who watched StanFrederickBTS, does he ever stop dropping heavy-handed references to other series? 'Cause everything else is great, but that's just painful.

I may be wrong in this but I feel like HABIT has no interest in taking out Slendy. If he's interested in the clock and hands to weaken him I'd think it's only to put himself ahead, so he can get to something someone before him. We have no idea what his motives are but I slightly doubt he cares that much about Slendy, i mean they really haven't been that much of a problem for each other.

In MLA the hands are clock hands, you know like an hour hand and minute hand.

 		I've been watching GamersRevengeUK for some time, it's more action rather than story based but they are an active Slenderman channel and the vids are fun to watch, especially their 2014 onwards stuff. Playlist here if anyone wants to check it: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnNVVsuETpoB1KuHIr4yKymyww4pz382O

 		I really like The West Records. I'm glad to see someone else watches it^^
It doesn't update very often, but when it does it's good, and leaves me wondering what the hell is going on.
