Well your wish was granted; new tweet today. Nothing of substance, though.

Forgive me if this concept has been discussed earlier in the thread, I somewhat skimmed it due to being very excited and trying to distract myself from worrying to death over a recent musical audition Embarassed

Anyway, I've been thinking about the discrepancies in TribeTwelve, and all the weird/flatness in the characters, and a thought occurs: What if it's on purpose? What if this time, we aren't looking at a Jay/Alex character? What if the reason there is no "Masky" character is because Noah IS the Masky character, or rather is becoming him? What if we are watching the degeneration of a Slender-minion? I know Tim wasn't particurarly lucid or convincing in any of his videos, but we weren't expecting him to be because we all thought he was one of the Big Bads ( http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BigBad )?

I pose that maybe he isn't supposed to be particularly informative. Hell, I don't think he's even supposed to be clear. I think we have been granted a front row seat into what happens when somebody loses the game the others are playing. Just a theory, but that would be a real trip, imho.

There's a difference between not being a convincing liar and just being a bad actor. Tim at least came across as a person who was lying, whereas the TribeTwelve crew come across as just plain bad actors.

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion. After rewatching all three series, I think they all acted pretty equally in quality; sometimes terribly obvious acting, and other times, quite genuine performances. You gotta admit, the acting has gotten better in Tribe Twelve since the beginning. The first eps were plagued with obvious acting, but now it's improving.

I'll concede that, but I'm not sure if it's because he's gotten better or if it's because he's mostly asleep, silently filming, or briefly talking into a camera as compared to earlier when he had to interact with the worst haircut on the east coast.
Not to say the other series haven't had their issues. Evan from EverymanHYBBRID's a little too hammy and obvious (when he's "performing", like in Joke's Over) at times, and I never really felt Alex Kralie was a very well performed character (how much was intentional is debatable)... but generally, TribeTwelve has been sub-par in writing in acting, but more than makes up for it by raising the bar whenever it comes to Slenderman. And prior complaints aside, it has gotten better since then. For one, it's a hell of a lot more easy to follow than Marble Hornets, which still wasn't very clear until at least Entry 23, or EverymanHYBRID which pretty much requires a constantly updated wiki to follow all the threads in motion. So really, I like to think of TribeTwelve as Slenderman for the MTV generation.

The thing is, I don't think he's supposed to be lying, or misleading anyone. I think he is just flat out ceasing to be human. His mind is slowly slipping from him. To me, he's always seemed less like he's lying or badly acting, and more like he's distracted, or just plain apathetic about the whole thing. He's interested, but he can't remember why. He feels compelled to search and try to figure it out from the small part of his brain that isn't under Slendy's control. In fact, I would go so far as to say that he left the package for himself. We know the Slender-stalked have instances when they lose control of themselves. What if this time, we're watching a whole series of those moments where control is gone, and off-camera things are happening when he gets it together?

Oh no... I hope that "ca" as in "can't wait to make a video about this and also I hope I didn't hit the character limit" and not "ca" as in "Ted the Caver". If this comes to a short, sudden halt due to a single twitter posting just after it finally started to get good...

I think it may have been the character limit, Twitter's pretty bad about that.

It's concerning since he hasn't finished said sentence in the past 5 hours.

Honestly that would be pretty funny Smile But apparently not the case since like Rodion just said he posted another tweet.
