Well, it makes sense, doesn't it? I always hate it when you watch a movie, or whatever, and some character makes a leap like "oh, the cows are acting funny? Must be aliens!"

I mean, yeah, it's science fiction, but if it were real life, I'd blame the farmer first, you know?

That's correct, GhostK - which is why this is kinda interesting. The amazing Strahm Zeke is an interesting main character, simply because he's much more authentic then all other protagonists who simply serve as "normal person who loses his mind" - good Slenderblogs make their character feel authentic before they allow the madness to seep in. He sees the Slender Man Mythos and reaches the same conclusion we do; "this is fake."

And that is how I am won over. Of course, not that this guy has done it, everyone else is going to imitate it =/ Especially after seeing the positive feedback this blog has gotten thus far.

Also, does anyone else think it's odd that such a supposedly taciturn character would choose a theme with pastel-colored polka-dots for his blog?


Maybe Lizzie set up the blog for him....:P

Did anyone catch what "chris" said in the comments? The Amazing Strahm Mr. Strahm seems to have deleted his comments, so I can only ponder at what he said =/

Regardless, I'm hoping for an update tomorrow~

That'd be nice! O_O I had forgotten that it's the weekend, hence the no posts.

Well, he does post on the weekends sometimes (e.g. last Sunday), but the general rule is that his zen lifestyle =/= blog posts, or that's my opinion anyway.

I guess it just depends when he's on duty.

New post today. Nothing new as far as the case, just more character development.

Looks like my " The Amazing Strahm Mr. Strahm at work = blog update" theory was wrong, but a blog post is a blog post.

It's a blog post about the character, which is a point in the favour that this is different from "slurp slurp look at Slendy, I'm just a normal guy slurp slurp" protagonists that are so hilariously (?) common. And I prefer this, since it makes any "descent into madness" more then a Slendy necessity.

Judging by his footer, we're getting another update tomorrow about whether he gets a lead or not; the rule of drama indicates the former, so I'll look forward to information about that.

I'm Chris.
It was just a recap of a post I made earlier (as Xltd).

The Amazing Strahm Mr. Strahm has posted up, regarding his lead. And now we meet Victim No. 3 and he gives us some rather ham-handed foreshadowing that Mr. Strahm are going to be having some... tall problems.

He does ask some key questions regarding the Slender mythos, however. I look forward to the explanation; there is also the fact that Sam and his guards are going to be having some trouble during the night (O.o)

I wonder if this newest entry got proof-read? XD The previous entries have all been very well written without any errors (I think!) but this one had a few?

I think I've been spoil't by Marble Hornets. I keep thinking that we can just sit back and watch (or read, in this case) to see how things unfold without really solving anything for ourselves. I wonder if they're going to throw in a puzzle or something for us to chew on at some point?

You know, the great thing about Lizzie having set up the blog, is that the author can kill off Zeke, and then have Lizzie take it over.

Having not participated in a "real" ARG, I find it amusing how people are dissecting Marble Hornets, looking for possible clues everywhere. And sometimes there are clues, but with Entry 25, people were seeing Slenderman and Masky everywhere, even though it was basically just stock footage of a fire.

Surprised Zeke as the sacrificial lamb, huh?

So long as Lizzie doesn't turn into the inevitable TTA-clone! XD

Or perhaps ... DUN DUN DUUUUN! Zeke is actually a figment of Lizzie's imagination, created in the image of the boy her father wanted Lizzie to be. Lizzie's "partner" is just one of her many personalities.

Or maybe Lizzie ... DUN DUN DUUUUN! ... is Zeke's female side.

EDIT: on a more serious note, why did Lizzie name the blog "seeking Truth?"
