No man, that's a lame comeback too -- there's ample evidence that the timestamps on the cameras are fucked with something serious -- people have brought it up numerous times. There's ample reason to deny teleportation. There's ample reason to accept it. Both sides have compelling points. It's not that we need more evidence shoved into our faces that tells us one way or another, I think it's more that we have the opportunity now to look for circumstantial evidence in the way that Masky or Slendy, or even Jay move around in the future. It seems more like a set up to help us frame some upcoming (and recent) weirdness. Either way -- teleportation, footage fucking-with -- we now have something to focus on and watch for.

Having a framework is probably pretty darned important EITHER way. As fun as a veritable 'Where's Waldo'-deluge of Slendy videos would be, having a pointer for what else we can look out for seems like a good setup to me. XD


I agree. There are multiple pieces of evidence for both parties, and it gives us something to watch out for in the next entry or TTA response.

Oh, yeah aaaaand:

 		Guys, we need to stop getting so worked up over this shit. Entry 24 is one of the most confusing entries yet and we don't have anywhere near the proper knowledge needed to pick it apart. The creators are having a field day with this lack of knowledge and we can't let ourselves get so damn frustrated about it. As of right now, every theory has some ground so long as there is a basic explanation for it. I don't think everyone "jumped on the bandwagon" for the teleportation theory, that was what many people interpreted it as being when they were watching it, including myself. There could also be missing/mislabeled video. We can't complain about anyone else's theories or flaunt our around like they're fact because WE DON'T KNOW SHIT RIGHT NOW.

Okay? That's all I wanted to add.

:/ I know the only reason I'm accepting the premise of teleportation is that, from a narrative point of view, they seem to be all but force-feeding it to us. Or at least setting up for a big reveal of some sort that OH GOD IT'S NOT TELEPORTATION AFTER ALL in which case, I'm accepting that they want us to think that it's teleportation, for now.

That is to say, I'm not crazy about the idea of teleportation, but I'll swallow it more readily than I will the idea of TTA or Masky or Slendy sneaking into J's barricaded house and fucking with his footage. TTA has a motive possibly, but no means, and Slendy seems to have dubious means and little motive.

I mean, assuming TTA and Masky are humans, the place is pretty much in lockdown to the point where they wouldn't be able to get in even if they had a key to the front door... and honestly, I just can't see Slendy bothering to edit footage to make it look like Jay's teleporting around.

 		Slendy doesn't need to edit anything. His mere presence alters audio and video, as well as TTA and Masky. They ALL mess with audio and video without having to even touch it.

Yes, but in such a specific, sneaky and pointedly deceptive manner? We've seen no evidence that Slenderman fucks up videos intentionally, much less with intentional results in mind, unless I've been really missing something. Same goes for the others, in terms of the distortion-aura they seem to give off.

 		this does seem to be about the only time the MH crew have handed something to us on a plate ... whatever you care to call it j is being moved about like a pawn on a slender chessboard

also this could be why they showed us js face twice in #23 ... hadnt there been some conjecture that j might not be j ?

it does seem like they are trying to resolve some of these narrative holes slowly and tighten it up

Unless I missed something somewhere along the way, I don't really think it would be that hard for either Slendy or Masky to sneak into his house, all he did was board up his windows I think. Just saying.

Agreed. And who is to say that SM messed with the videos intentionally? he may have just been in the house somewhere( T.V?) and the videos messed up.

So instead of randomly distorting the audio/video, his electro-fuckery causes all cameras in the house to show that nobody's there for two hours? By accident? Hm.

Hmm, indeed. Yea, notice the word MAY HAVE. Heck, he MAY HAVE only electro-fucked with the timestamps.

Messing up timestamps sounds a lot better, considering how inconsistent and wierd looking they are throughout the video

Also something I noticed is that the face pops up on the TV as soon as Jay starts going through the door, according to the side-by-side comparison at the end

 		why is this thread an entire hate fest towards the teleportation/time traveling idea?

You guys are trying too hard to find answers when the answer is right in front of you.

"SOMEONE COULD'VE BROKEN INTO J'S BARRICADED HOUSE AND EDITED THE FOOTAGE" seems like too convenient of an excuse. I'm sorry. The only reason you're denying this theory is that you don't like the idea of it, and that's your problem.


I would venture to say that It's more convenient to just write it off as teleportion than messing with the footage.
