-thinks- She said the name was familiar, so...perhaps she maybe...saw Marble Hornets and followed the entries a bit? Maybe she didn't do it so obsessively like we do, but you know, popped in and out and kind of recognizes him...well, what he looks like anyway. Or she heard about him on that news report that was up during one of the entries about the fire. Either that or Slenderman is altering her mind too.

That didn't have his name, so no.

Not the original report. But you'd have thought the followup reports would say something along the lines of "authorities are still trying to get in contact with Jay McXXXXX, the resident of the apartment, who has not been seen since the night of the fire"...

OMFG GUYS I THINK I FOUND SLENDY Shocked
Okay, probably not, but explain it to me anyway?
Screenie from 2:51

My first thought was that it was the top of the mirror, but from other angles of the mirror, I haven't seen such a prominent bulge (like 27: 1:35). Watching the scan of the room in 27 (1:30-1:35), I'm not seeing anything else it could be. If it's Slendy, it looks like he's coming from the door to his closet, bathroom, or Jessica's room (not 100% sure what the door leads to). If that's to Jess' room, then that would have a lot of implications. This is also when Jay clears his throat and if you listen with headphones, there is a very faint high pitched screech right before he turns around (hint at Slendy-sickness and audio distortion?).

But this is most likely me being silly because I just want Slendy to show up.

I think you found something there Rogue. That actually looks pretty plausible. Sickness and distortion are subtle. I think we might've found our first sighting.

The next frame gives a clearer view of it. It is the mirror.

The "bulge" is due to the angle of the camera. The mirror is reflecting light from the window making only the frame easily visible. This makes the top of the mirror frame looks like it is bulging out.

Alright something that hasn't been brought up yet is the fact that Jessica only says her first name to Jay. Jay says his full name back to her. This could be a decision based on just the awkwardness of the situation, like he didn't know what he was doing and he just spit it out, but it seemed weird to me. Like he wanted her to remember him. Usually I reply to a first name with another first name, and a full name with another full name. Anything else just seems weird and out of place.

Maybe Jay knows more than he's letting on, or more than he's telling us. Maybe he started to remember some of the stuff that happened in the last months and he's just hiding it still.

Also I'm in agreement with the "did something bad" theory; though I don't think it was enough to get him on America's most wanted lol. Then again, maybe it was?

Actually, this brings up an interesting point - so far as we know, nobody involved in MH has actually died. Alex reeled off a list of people who had "gone", but Jay was on it, so we can't read that as meaning "dead".

MH do really well at making you terrified for people whilst actually very rarely threatening them physically. Only Masky has ever shown anything resembling violent aggression.

Maybe, when he said "gone", he meant mentally? As in, the people that he named WERE MOAR MASKIES D:

I believe that Jessica is a victim much like Jay. The staff could be other victims or maybe even the other Maskies. Maybe the staff is crew and cast of Marble Hornets; they all fell off the map, much like Jay, so the hotel and the area around could be a sort of purgatory.

Sorry if this has been posted already, but you know the safe that Jay found under the hotel bed in Entry #28; and how someone (TTA/Masky?) posted some pictures onto his twitter at different times?

Just a huge guess but...maybe those times mean something? (Maybe it's the code for the safe?)

Or you can use the letters in the pictures and convert them into numbers?
Question (The letter's MVNKBE...I really doubt this guess though)

This picture = http://twitpic.com/32u8yg
Has some tally marks on the wall...maybe you can have Jay try to use this?
(555530?) or (2030?) Embarassed

WOAH this thread exploded

Why doesn't Jay call maintenance to unlock the safe for him? That's what I had to do one time while at a hotel Razz

That was solved as "read it upside-down, it spells 'WAKE UP', might be a message for Jay."

Shh...
You're not supposed to prove me wrong with logic! *gasp*
The next frame only shows the door, so I'm unsure what you're talking about, but you're still probably right.

I would think that too, but remember: Jay is a ways away from his hometown. Possibly even a couple states away. Followup reports like that don't make it past local news. So unless Jess is from the same town as Jay, it's pretty unlikely. And I doubt that Jay has done anything to get noticed on a national scale--I really don't think that anyone who isn't actively trying to avoid the police could actually avoid them for so long.

Because he doesn't know what it's in there. For all he knows, it could be pictures of him or Masky torturing someone. Or severed rabbit ears. Or ice cream sandwich wrappers. Point is, it could be anything, and he certainly won't have an explanation for some curious/horrified hotel staff.
