I can see the face in the window after Jay left the room, but I guess it's possible it could be an optical illusion.
Maybe it'd be best to ask Jay, since he has the original three hours of footage? Maybe he didn't spot the face before, and he could tell us if it moves during the three hours at all.


Anyway, been going back over old stuff, and I'm wondering about a couple of points.

First, people were mentioning that Tim's arms had scars on them in entry 15, but not in other entries.
Watching #15 for myself, all I could spot on his arms were brown marks.
Is that what everybody else is seeing? If so, are those definitely scars?

Second, one of totheark's responses to a message via Youtube was "soundiseverything".
Jay also thinks that someone may have removed the audio from some tapes.
Perhaps totheark is that person, and he removed the audio because he thought it was important somehow?

Finally, a question: was the totheark Twitter ever confirmed as in-game or a gamejack?

 		I can clearly see Masky outside the window when J is inside but I'm not sure about seeing him after...

But why is that important? just because he is there when he left does not mean he took J somewhere or something like that. He could just be staring into the camera...who knows what J did, it may have something to do with masky, slenderman, or maybe he's a sleepwalker. We don't know. We can only speculate. But in my opinion, something is controlling J and made him get up to do something. I don't like the idea of masky being the one doing it, he looks human to me...although, he does have some kind of "power"/ Slenderman possessed him or something?

Oh, and to te guy who said Masky might still be protecting J....I think that's bull. The signal video sounded creepy and ominous...it did not sound like a warning or some kind of safety. Also, I wouldn't attack someone who I'm tyring to help. I think he is clearly a dangerous person....not sure what you guys think but then again, all we can do is watch.

If we assume EFG (I'll always call him that Wink ) is a supernatural entity, just like Slender Man, we could invoke the Lovecraftian rule: He's trying to help, but just epically fails at it due to absolutely not understanding humans.

Picture someone annoyed, saying "Yeah, why don't You go kill Yourself" - and then wondering why the hell the person took it literally. That, times 9000, multiplied with Totally Alien Mind factor. "What do You mean, leaving dead roaches all over the place was not quite clearly a message of universal unity and love?" Like that. (Except possibly sounding more like "Iä!Iä!Cthulhu Ftäghn" while stating the question).

Personally, though? I think it's bull, too Razz

Masky appears in the window after J blocks our view of the window. OOG it's a good horror trick, just like SM appearing when Brian blocks our view of the alley. I'm not sure what's in the window once J disappears. Check out 1:45, and flick between that and 0:50. There is definitely a difference, but it's not the same form as the one appearing in 1:25.

Some more notes on this entry:
- Masky's progression around the room seems odd. He starts outside near the window, gets into two poses on the dresser, goes between the bed and the window, stares into the camera, and leaves. A lot takes place between jumps in action (J moves slightly, pulls up the blankets, then disappears). I have a feeling things are happening in between shots, but the camera is freaking out. Masky seems to be capable of freaking out camera equipment.

- I think J pulled up the blankets himself, and he would have done so because he was cold. In Entry 17, J was cold because of the presence of Tim/Alex/Slenderman. If we can rule out the presence of Slenderman in Entry 19, then it seems likely that either Tim or Alex is Masky (we figured that out already, but it's worth noting), and that the use of Masky's supernatural powers causes cold.

- J says he comes back after three hours and falls asleep instantly. He isn't brought back (and doesn't appear instantly after some static). Sounds like a trance to me. It is set up to look like Masky entranced him and whisked him away. Something else may have happened (with so many "scene missing" cards, it's hard to know for sure) but it is definitely telegraphed as "Masky takes J from his room".

I watched the Entry again and I did notice something that looked like a mask when he left...but I think it's an opitcal allusion or something because he was in the same exactly place and when I focused on it it kind of went away, or became less apparent. I kind of think it's like that jesus illusion on how you see him when you close your eyes and everywhere for a while...you would probably be staring at the mask when you see him so after the distortion and the creepy EFG, we think we see him there...well I'm not sure. I still don't think him being there after J left makes any difference.

 		alright so earlier I posted up a juxtaposition of Alex and EFG (really like that nickname Smile ). I JUST got my comp fixed and was going to post up a side by side of EFG and Tim. I'll let you guys do most of the thinking here.

Alex and EFG



Now, Tim and EFG

 		I don't know why people keep posting that. You can't see Masky's face. It's futile, except to say Tim has similar ears.

 		On the subject of Masky being outside the window, in this thread there are a handful of reference and proof shots. The first two clearly prove Masky was looking in the window after J left, and the others kinda prove that he was looking in while J was piddling around is room.

Enjoy.

The first time it was okay, since that's a logical thing to do (compare faces to the best of our abilities).
But now it's pretty old (by our time) and reposting it doesn't really help much. I think we're getting stuck on small details again...

Edit: And, not the fan the fire, but Tim's head is too long, imo.

I thought that image looked squished, to be honest...

Okay, good for you, and what's the point of proving that?

Off topic : EFG reminds me of the Phantom of the Office from College Humor.

Hey, you know what, you just changed my point of view. But not how you intended.

I swore he was there, and could see him no matter how closely I looked at the screen. However, when I actually enlarged the picture, I discovered that it does indeed change when you get closer. It changes into a house. So now I'm on the fence again.

Well, like I said, I just got my comp working again and I'm a bit behind on things...but apparently no new vid from either J or TTA have shown up...
