I've been wondering if the sirens are an indication of a shift of things. Like the entire point isn't to signal an entity but a shift in their world that is for the worse. Like something being able to bleed in and cause something to happen. I'm not sure just a thought though might be why Jeff hears it all the time he is closer to the area of things bleeding in.

I'm hoping everything is all well with everyone, I know I haven't been able to be on much due to my schedule of classes kicking my ass. I try but it's one of those things.


This thought is frightening and utterly perfect and if it turns out to be true I'll never be able to hear a siren without bursting into tears. Crying or Very sad Makes me want to hug the stuffing out of Jeff too.

(We'll get our asses kicked together, DZombar. Together.)

Yeah, I definitely think the constant sirens are a turn for the worse. But I associate it with the boys' proximity to either the truth about things or SM versus something on some larger scale. It may also be auditory hallucination, a mental/psychological reaction to the impending revelations. That's the first thing I thought - that they are nearing epiphany and getting worse. Or maybe it's both - they're changing, but they're also physically getting closer to some sort of reality warp on par with what we see in some of the hidden videos. Or the warp is closing in on them.

I assume some of us have considered something like this possibility in the past - I don't pay too close attention to the timey-wimey stuff - but maybe the hidden video footage of a barren world with sirens indicates we're already too late?

Weren't those files found buried on the EMH hard drive? Weren't they numbered in a series? Maybe they were made by the boys from a setup similar to the bunker we see in the two unofficial videos, WTTA and Slender Man. And sent back here, or across to here. So maybe they're already gone and we're watching their past selves in some weird loop.

I hope not, but I remember their fondness for Donnie Darko (and sorry, anything Richard Kelly made after the original theatrical cut of Darko is fucking awful, especially Southland Tales) so I wonder.

The Tangent Universe is collapsing.


Seriously.

I mentioned this...I don't know...I know I did.


By tangent universe, I am referring to Donnie Darko and the Theory of Time Travel.

In DD, the Tangent Universe is opened when Donnie takes his pills. IN GAME, Damsel flushes her pills whereabouts of the Sleep Lab stuff. Evan has his dream about everyone vanishing and screaming and joy.


I don't really know where I'm going with this, I honestly don't believe that TToTT is incorporated in EMH, but In Game Jeff went out of his way to mention that he watched it for the first time at some point, which makes me wonder if PM Jeff has actually seen it.

It works to an extent.

Jessa and Slendy= The Manipulated Dead(Frank and whats-her-name)
Habit, Letter sender person= Manipulated Living

so on so on.

Breaking from this tangent. I'd hate to ask, but I think someone has to. Is the laughter they're hearing in the Sirens the same as the laughter from the voicemail?



edit: fucking ninja'd

First, let me say again fuck that Director's Cut in the ear. I got no time for that shit. I would say Kelly will grow out of the needless overcomplication, but I've seen his films since. /hater

That being said, I think there is another universe involved here, somehow, in the endgame. I just am trying to focus on the past/Corenthal angle right now. I think they all come from this world and this universe. How they might get to another one is a different story.

I'm not sure that was laughter in the voicemail. It almost sounded like Jessa's breathing or crying distorted.

So basically, the EMH crew are the parents in Candle Cove: We're watching just black/static to them.

To us, it's entertainment. Horrifying, but entertainment.

yeah. fuck the Director's Cut. But TToTT isn't specifically as result of the Director's Cut. It just got heavy handed with it.

I'm pretty sure that was laughter somewhere in that. Of course, I'll have to listen again.


Digressing back to the Sleep lab stuff...I wasn't around for discussion when it came out. But they tweeted a pic of what I'm assuming is stuff Evan drew about his dream. http://twitpic.com/1x6vqn

The top picture looks like a bedroom with a dark mass/person in the corner. Think this was a prelude to the Rake?



EDIT: I need to stop reading the timeline, there is just too fucking much there. Too many questions. Too many trees. I can't stop coughing. I see his reflection in the monitor.

I just looked at that again myself, and noticed something I'd forgotten about.

Yeah - I think I'm going to try and send the same letter to Steph at her tumblr, assuming she still checks it. I can't think of any other way to get in touch with her directly.

Remember, she was asked what she wished for, and answered, "an explanation that adheres to my perception of time." If any of them are thinking the same thing I'm thinking about their past - but didn't quite voice to Jeff - it's her.

Three Undeniable Truths
1. Director's Cut > Theatrical.
2. EMH are characters in a video game and they are running out of continues.
3. This is a pony. Pony?!

Are you sure this isn't two truths and a lie? Because that is clearly an image of a pony's head, not a pony.

I am legitimately curious about TNC and GreenFeathers. TNC seems over-stressed and GreenFeathers is posting weird shit.
Also, Kevin Bacon Game: Arizona Green Tea. GO.

That GreenFeathers thing does not seem like a coincidence to me. He's savvy enough to handle the nuances of the ARG on-camera in their game and do tech work - which I could never do despite a few years of post-production - and he rolled with them well during their outing in which they never broke character. I think he's in it now.

This waiting thing sucks way worse when you've made yourself involved.

Guys this is supposed to be on-topic only take the degrees game to the off-topic please.

If there is another universe at play then that's another puzzle piece that complicates. I do think it might be a good idea to see if those screams sound anything like the ones from Evan's dream with the screaming children. He might not remember much of that dream but if something is /really/ disturbing it stays in the back of your mind for months. In fact we can see if the other boys hear the screaming or sirens frequently as well it might give us a clue.

If it is like a video-game and they are running out of continues then we might be coming to a climactic cut-scene sooner or later here one that ends for one party. No one wants this to happen but it could.

TNC and Greenfeathers are another source of strange that we can either attribute to dicking around on Greenfeathers part that or because of his previous ease he has become IG and possible rl stress or some such on TNC's part.
