by the way, at 7:50, theres like a scene thats possible underwater right before that strange slurping sound, which MIGHT explain the slurping sounds. and i dont think thats a guy with glasses, looks more like a girl and the scream was more female like.

I see there's been a change of heading for the marble hornets forum, requiring me to actually sign up and stop Guestan.
First off, I CALLED IT, OH YEAH. Just had to get that out of my system.

Second of all, the glasses the person's wearing, plus the key to Noah's house, leads me to believe the person in the video is in fact Noah Maxwell, and he just doesn't remember the events due to Slenderfication. This video was made 11 years ago, and the person in it looks believably around 13-ish.

And finally... is Großemann in the picture of the big gathering of people? I was understanding the stretched pixels to the left of the screen to be sort of like the visual tearing on a regular video only in still shot form. If so, then Großemann must be there. And I can kinda see a bald guy standing head and shoulders above the rest of the people there, but I don't know if that's Großemann or just a tall guy.

Other notes: The shot of Großemann hiding in the forest is a bit silly. He really doesn't blend in. And the mannequins did give me a moment of "wait, what?"

Seconding NoMoreGaems' theory about it being a younger Noah. The fact that the whole 'Do You Remember?' thing is on the tape that was left on his doorstep confirms that Noah is in that video?

Anyway, was an awesome update. But I'm not sure where he can go from here. It seems like he's just going to have to go back to posting the odd 'uh oh, it's dark and there's some weird noises, better wander round and film' videos which is a shame, because things were getting really interesting with the package and what was inside it, but things seem to have kinda hit a dead end...

Well, let's just wait and see where this goes. At any rate, this may or may not have reached some sort of concluding point for the time being. We can only wait to see what they throw at us next.

This... this is interesting. I'm the most curious about the sound files, especially the first one. Anyone who follows video games knows about how Valve used steganography to hide images for Portal 2 in seemingly random noise files; I wonder if that's a possibility here? Also, note that, in the first two sound files, the left and right waveforms are different in several areas, which seems odd in that a camera phone would only record monaurally. And is the backwards orchestral music at the end of #2? Shades of totheark?

Also, I think our bespectacled camera-watcher at 8:00 is actually a woman. Just something about how the eye is shaped, the style of glasses being worn, and the tone of the cry before it's cut off.

Theorem: The young man pictured with our tentacle-sprouting Slender Man is indeed a younger Noah (or Milo?). But who took that picture, and how did it end up on the tape?

Pretty interesting entry. I'm going to nitpick the hell out of it, but I'll start with what I liked. I really liked the still image at the end with the Slendy-tentacles (I thought they were tree branches at first) and, well, I suppose the general sinister air of it all was done really well. However, most of this is pretty ripped off of other Slenderman ARGs, most of all the whole 'Milo had a run in with Slenderman at an early age and forgot', which was already done by EverymanHYBRID, not to mention the random incredibly loud distortion which is immensely irritating and betrays the whole 'eerie' feel of Slenderman for more of a cheap scare one.

It was interesting though, like I said, and now that EverymanHYBRID and this are on similar tracks, I'm looking forward to seeing how they handle almost identical plots.

yeah, i already posted the possibility of the person at 8:00 to be a woman, seems sorta obvious in fact. i however neglected to include that the person in the picture might be a younger milo or Noah. its gotten me even more interested though!

That one second shot of Slender Man at 8:06 was not a 'still image', if you look at it carefully, the tentacles actually move. And their plots are not identical, only in the "OMG SLENDAR MAN BE SHOWIN UP IN MAH TAPES" bit. They are very different and have quite dissimilar plots.

Not really. EverymanHYBRID has the characters remembering a run-in with Slendy from their childhoods and trying to dig up evidence to remember. TribeTwelve appears to be going in an identical direction. Their plots are actually very similar if TribeTwelve goes where everyone is thinking it will.

In EMH, we focus on character developement, we have sub characters and blogs and whatnot, it's not just Selnderman who is the main focus.

In TribeTwelve, we are pretty much just focusing on Slenderman and Noah, that's it.

The plots are not the same, at all.

Analyzing the pictures...

1: Someone drawing something. Looks like a stick figure. Possible reference to our slender friend?
2: A picture of a series of balconies. Very firm perspective. This and the previous picture have me thinking our photographer is in an art class, possibly high school.
3: An exit sign, no other identifying characteristics. Reminds me of Metacortechs, anyone else having flashbacks to stairs/stairs/stairs? Though this probably is just my imagination talking, seems to me this person was planning on using the exit sign in some fashion, possibly putting the image in a context where it would have more meaning. In other words, it's a work in progress from a ToTheAlike.
4: Someone sitting down. Looks like they're sitting at a table in a high school cafeteria. Evidence is mounting...
5: Delicious meats! Doesn't... seem to mean anything. Taken in a local market, reminds me a lot of a local food market, very cheap place.
6: The field from EverymanHYBRID... well, not really, but that was my first thought and remains in my thoughts every time I look. No slenderman, at least that I can see.
7: A trail through the woods. So lovely and green... and distinctly slenderless.
8: A sinister hotel. There's a person in the distant distant distant distance whose head looks waaaaaaayyyy too close to the ceiling to be normal, so that's probably our good friend der Großemann. The sharp, perfect perspective still makes me think art student.
9: Eating at Arbies with a hairy guy in a wolf shirt. Reminds me of my first date. Dollars to pesos says that wolf shirt guy is Milo.
10: The intersection from hell. I have one of those by my house too. Also, cheesit the law!
11: Slendercasual, for those times when you want to look good while distorting video. This pic really threw me the first time I saw it. The presence of it on the phone in universe could have two explanations: 1, it's coincidence and just kinda spooky. Totally plausible, I suppose. 2, the person taking the pictures has seen Großemann before and freaks out before realizing what it is, and takes the picture. I really think that's what happened. Also, this picture really has the feel of a pic taken in New York, meaning it's either Milo who took it (likely, likely, highly likely) or Noah who took it while in New York and doesn't remember. Not as likely.
12: An autobiography about Moroccan prison, a new age "adventure romance" that sounds a little bit like The Fountain, a biography of three wives of famous actors, a novel about a black woman accused of murder in the South, the E True Hollywood story of a producer and his various daughters, and a cat-and-mouse crime thriller about an FBI agent and some sort of bioweapon fueled by murdered wives? I dunno, not getting anything off this image other than "And here we are at a used book store."
13: An empty car by the side of the road. Didn't appear in Image 10, might just be the car our photographer's riding in.
14: Bambi and friends. This is almost lethally adorable.
15: A forest. Doesn't seem to be the same forest from Images 6 and 7. Can't see Großemann anywhere.
16: Creepy treehouse in a creepy forest. Still no sign of our slender friend.
17: Another treehouse, not as creepy. Another picture devoid of precious wifin.
18: SQUIIIIRRRREEEELLLLLL!!!!!!!
19: HAAAAAAAANNNNNNNDD!!!!!! Note the left side of the screen, the pixels are stretched. It is my opinion that this is the same sort of thing as visual tearing, meaning there's slender fellows prowling about.
20: And this is the pic that gives me that opinion. Here we have Großemann standing there, looking all thin and stuff, tentacles writhing around, pretending to be a tree. The pixels are stretched on the left again. He looks really poorly photoshopped in there, partly due to the blurriness around his head not matching the depth of field, and partly due to the lack of a shadow.
21: The watercloset. After seeing our slender friend like that, the mind immediately insists the dark shape in the center of the pic is him as well. Quell that instinct, it will get you killed someday. This image reminds me of the EXIT sign from before. Might just be nothing.
22: Pixel stretching to the left. A graduation ceremony. There appears to be a tall bald man in the crowd, near the stage, but I can't tell if it's our good buddy or just a tall bald guy. There's also a pair of strange shapes at the top of the image. One could be just a shadow behind the glass, or could be Großemann standing up. The other could be a highlight on the glass, or it could be Großemann sitting down. Paranoia!
22: Ooooooooooohhhhhhhh. Graduation fireworks? Doesn't sound like a very New York thing to do, might this be back in their hometown? Come to think of it, where do they live again? Florida?
23: Now here's a setting familiar to anyone who read the original SA thread. I don't see Großemann here, but I do think this is an intentional homage.
24: A building. Not Noah's house, and the car parked out front isn't the one from 13. Nothing visible in the windows.
25: Your face is melting, brah. Actually, is that... that almost looks like Evan! Probably just my imagination.
26: Water bottle next to what is either a piece of wood or a skinny, bruised and tanned arm. I think it's wood. Sitting on someone's lap, I think.
27: A dark and sinister door. Doesn't seem to be anyone on the other side of it.
28: Someone sneezed up a hunk of brain. Looks like it caused the mess Jay found in the empty house. That's some nasty stuff.
29: Swooosh! Spinny image, with pixel stretching. SEES ME (X)!
30: DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNN! I like how the zooming effect lends it an air of drama. The Großemann has arrived, and he's ready to... do scary stuff, I guess! More pixel stretching on the side.
31: The man himself up close. Further pixel stretching. The afterimage makes it look like the picture was taken first head on at his chest, then turned up so the camera could catch his lack of face.
32: Same as before, only filmed in Jacob's Ladder Vision. The pixel stretching now covers about a third of the screen.
33: Indistinct. Pixel stretching has receded a bit. Looks like it could be a closeup on the side of someone's face. Perhaps a Blair Witch Project sorta thing (spoilers, btw).
34: More stretched pixels. I have no idea what this could be an image of, there's no shapes here that I can decode. Is it a santa hat? I can't tell.
35: And finally, the face that will haunt my nightmares forever. So distorted... I think it's female? Blonde, bluish eyes, all I can figure.

Well, that's my analysis. I think what we're seeing is the last days of a high school art student. Possibly? I dunno. Draw conclusions, and jump to them!
