Go back a few pages. They were already posted.

 		Can we at least agree that these guys, the real people, may have heard about a contest, already had a game in progress with a bit of footage sitting around, and decided hey, why not enter it and reuse some of what we already have? Just as a possibility. So if it is possible that this is not IG, why not err on the side of caution and get a mod to make final say on this? I can admit that I may be wrong, but if I am, no harm done. If I'm right, then that's another story.

 		There's no use in involving a mod. It's all just friendly speculation. There will be a final verdict eventually. We just have to be patient for another update.

 		My opinion is that they would'nt post to a contest when they know that they have a whole beig video series goin on and they know that their viewers would get confused....

Either the series is hitting it's endgame and the **** is hitting the fan or the EMH crew has played a dirty trick on us.

It's a possibility, certainly, but if thats the case... Well, to be very frank, it was a poor decision.

I doubt they'd crap in their own punch bowl because they wanted to win a random youtube contest, nor would they do it with footage and etc... only people following EMH would understand in the first place.

We will have to wait and see.

The facebooks... avoid them like the plague, if you have any sense.

Me personally, I wouldn't even think about it. Humans make mistakes. They might have just figured we wouldn't find it, since they're on completely separate YouTube channels from their normal videos. Even the hidden videos were posted on EverymanHYBRID.

Until we get confirmation that the vids are canon, I'd rather not.

 		Well they have to know that some day someone is going to find that video either it be now or tommorow...they should've just kept it private and sent it to the contest people's emails... if they wanted to be nice to their fans...

I really like the theory that someone gave that this area that they're in is not on earth but a place where it's slenderman's realm...but that would mean that this is obviously endgame but they didn't exactly build up to that so i can say i like this theory but i don't see it happening right not.


EDIT: Is the dog in the vid too? I thought i saw something in the first 20 30 secs of the video? the damn dog has purple tape too...jeez

 		In-game or out-of-game, those videos are some creepy pieces of work and show that EH is being run by some guys who know how to build atmosphere. Personally, Evan's "heart to heart" was the creepiest... not only for his eyes, but when he turned the camera around to show the empty chair.

Sure as hell I'm barely sleeping tonight.

These guys are very creative.

There are a few different ways to interpret these videos. Bear with me, here: these are only ideas.

----------

The concept of alternate realities has been talked about. But what about the concept of alternate continuities? At a surface level these two statements -- reality and continuity -- seem to mean the same thing. What I mean by continuity, though, is something that is not parallel to our story but broken off from it.

Consider 78of76.avi. Presumably the video takes place during "A Day in the Life" and "---," but if this were the case it would logically follow that there would be talk about it on twitter or in other videos (not ---, obviously, but the secret videos beforehand were implied to have actually taken place). The same applies to the Magus video, only in this case the video is actively denied a place in the EMH story. To the boys, it didn't happen.

Or maybe it did.

Disregard the theory of the Slender Man's washing minds for just a moment and consider something. As stated, there's been no followup to what we presume happened during "A Day in The Life." Similarly, there has been no followup that we can see to these new videos, "Slender man" and "Welcome to the ARK.". Why is this?

"78of76.avi" seems to be, to me, the first occurrence of The Land of Ashen Waste.

What was being referred to wasn't a physical location -- at least not "physical" in the sense that it occupies our plane of reality, or our timeline. It was this space of timelessness and darkness and rain that was being referred to.

The space that, I pose, three men (and maybe more) coincidentally broke into during their walk through a New Jersey park. The space that they are, apparently, stuck in. The space that these videos, and possibly the other "secret" videos, are coming from. The ARK. The Land of Ashen Waste. The team we know now, the one updating their twitter, the one whose little brother is being tormented and whose love has been captured, is separate from the three men we see in these recent videos.

There may be more continuities separate from the one inside TALoW and outside of it. At this point, it is unclear. It seems, though, as if those inside TALoW are facing their own "endgame" that is unique from what may happen in the outside world.

This has been a postulation.

----------


Samus is, I think, totally correct. What evidence is there of this being OOG that isn't present in, say, Alex's channel?

 		These:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqWGOF6Y2TA
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNRk-Du9C9s
are IG.

The FB and other YT channels are not.

We can tell by the fact that the first two videos involve all the characters and their creations acting exactly like they have IG and fit into the established cannon (Although they seem to speed things up, Wham Episodes tend to do this). The others are not because they conflict or have nothing to do with the established cannon. It would be stupid, not a simple mistake, stupid, for the creators to post something so IG-ish OOG.

We clear?

No, we're not clear. I don't see how reusing similar themes to what you're used to could be considered "stupid" and there's a lot of evidence that points to this being OOG. Until we get an official confirmation for this being canon, I'm in firm belief that it isn't.
