This is obvious endgame. Masky's motivations are so ridiculously obvious at this point I'm surprised nobody has come right out and said it.


It's been my experience that the theories that people preface with "it's so obvious you guys" are the ones that cause the most contention. XD

In any case, I find your basic premise to be unconvincing. Jay doesn't seem to be immune to slenderman; he's just not dead or disappeared yet. He has lost time, there are videos he says he doesn't remember. If that's not Slendy-effect, then it's some other effect that we haven't had any indication of yet, which would be strange to say the least.

If anything, what you're suggesting implies that Tim is more immune to Slendy than Jay is, having survived three knowing years of Slendy-stalking!

However, I agree that TTA/Masky wants something out of Jay, and it's something that Jay may or may not have or actually know, and that he isn't hostile so much as self-serving or desperate.


In my opinion, TTA/Masky wanting something out of Jay indicates to me that TTA/Masky is Tim or some others (not including Alex) exclusively and they want to find Alex.

Perhaps this is why Slendy isn't stalking Jay quite as much, because Alex left and he's still stalking Alex, Tim, and Jay while they're all in different places, rather at the same location/town during the filming of Marble Hornets, which would make it easier for him. Therefore, this distance is causing him to be stretched too thin (I swear I didn't come up with this entire idea to make that pun) in his stalking.

If Masky wanted Alex (for answers or some other ish), then he'd try to target Jay, him being Alex's closest friend in this whole thing and all. It might also explain why Masky/Tim didn't show up (Entry #16) until Jay revealed himself again to Tim in the interview (Entry #15).

That sounds fairly plausible to me. I like the idea of Slendy not being quite so obvious because the crew is no longer in the same place. Poor Alex, though, if he's somewhere out of state and Slendy is STILL chasing him. Double the 'oh shi--' if 'the ark' is SUPPOSED to be Alex and yet he's still being stalked by Slendy.

I'd still like to know where Brian is. (and if Seth or Sarah have any more significance to the series!)

This is just my theory but... I think that ToTheArk hacked J's account because he's decided to REALLY make a move.

A few thoughts:

- J does not have the Triforce of Courage. If anything, he has the Triforce of Rationalizing Weird Shit While Hiding Out In His Apartment. But can you blame him? If someone complained to you, out of the blue, about half the weird stuff J's gone through, you'd probably think they were a good candidate for a stay in a padded room. What would a normal guy think about all this stuff going on?

- The music audio layer of "Six Pound" sounds more orchestral than the other ones I've been able to isolate myself- those were more reminiscent of marching bands, or old newsreel music.

- I'm not entirely sure why I'm clinging to my "at least two Maskies" theory, but there's something about that Masky Montage that leads me to believe that more than one person is featured.

-Blue5213 posits that J is immune to Slender Man's influence. Of this I'm not at all certain, but it does seem that J at least has a higher resistance than some others. Then again, there's the fact that he doesn't at all remember the events in Entry 17....

- If Masky is acting as an agent for totheark, then it is possible that Masky simply brought over a pre-recorded Entry ######, created by totheark, to upload into J's account while J was out being nowhere on Earth.

My overarching theory is that J is not THE central character in this whole thing. However, he and Tim are the only known people to have been a part of the Marble Hornets production and not simply disappeared from the face of the Earth, and it's a strong likelyhood that Tim is in fact Masky. So what part does J play in this? He may be a last-hope scenario for Masky and totheark for whatever ultimate goal they are working towards. J's reticence to face what is going on, his hiding away at home despite totheark's warning that Alex's attempts at the same were fruitless, could have pushed them to take a very forward, in-your-face mentality.

I believe strongly that J needs to return to the house one more time. We've seen it proven that broad daylight is no protection for him- but the desperation of cornered prey just might be.

I agree that Jay needs to return to the house, but I also agree that if he does the poor little guy'll probably have a heart attack. Either way, If there is another Masky the only person who I think would be a likely candidate is Brian

Jay needs to go to the house with some to go with him. A friend, police, his mom, it doesn't matter, he needs a witness.

Or a second recording device.

He should set up cameras in the house as he goes along, just in case he manages to keep the tapes somehow when he blacks out. (Hey, it's happened before...)

A stationary camera in his car would also be helpful. Then we could at least get a clue as to HOW he gets home every time. I'm picturing Slendy carrying J in his arms like a baby. Razz

Sorry if this has been covered; but i'm going with the theory that the ARK is Alex Kralie. Tim is masky/totheark (if they are one and the same). Whether or not he wants too find Alex for help or a malicious purpose I don't know; but perhaps he is looking for him because Alex knows how too get rid of SM in some way.

After this video, I think that there probably are more than one Masky, but that Alex is not involved, and Tim is the head man or just the most recognizable of them.

I can't see any difference from the effect J's undergone and what Alex has, such as when each went to the house. J's definitely weak to his influence. The only difference is that Slendy hasn't been as omnipresent in J's life as he was in Alex's (or at least as much as we can tell by the videos posted for each, it may be that Slendy was actually very rarely in Alex's life, but that it appears more concentrated by what we've seen, keeping in mind that the events happened over three years)

With this, Entry #24, and all the twitter updates on checking surveillance footage, it makes me believe Entry #25 will definitely be surveillance footage from when this video was posted.

I like the idea that TTA/Masky is in fact looking for Alex, perhaps to resolve something or get answers and that J's role in this is that he was the closest friend to Alex, so TTA thinks J's the most likely person to lead them there. However, with that, that makes me believe that there's only one Masky (Tim) and that he's TTA as well (we really have no evidence besides speculation that TTA/Masky would be different people), since I can't see a larger group coming together with the same exact purpose.

In my opinion, if TTA was warning J that his efforts would be as ineffective as Alex, that would indicate to me that TTA was in part responsible for what happened to Alex, and we have no evidence that that's the case. Like I said, I expect the next entry to be surveillance footage, so I'll think more about whether he should go back to the house then or not.

He should have enough cameras for that by now.

I really like this idea, setting up some kind of surveillance. That'd be a really interesting idea and would make for some creative videos to push the series forward if he did go back to the house.

I doubt Alex has found a way to get rid of Slendy, if he had, he wouldn't have needed to run away and would have helped the others instead. I still think TTA's been around for a while (well, whatever his purpose is has been around for a while), and he came up as TTA to try to use J to find Alex. I feel though as if it's more for curiosity, to see what's happened to Alex and how he's dealing with Slendy. I highly doubt TTA/Masky's above J and Alex or working with Slendy some how. I believe he's in a similar situation to those two and just wants answers.

Yeah, maybe Alex hasn't found a way to get rid of Slenderman but TTA/Masky/Tim is looking for him for answers of some kind. Perhaps how it all started? That is, of course, if Alex does know - which wouldn't surprise me.
