Hello all. I thought I would give my input.

I looked at the video frame by frame and the best thing I could get was this: -- ..- ... - -.. .. . . .. . . . . . . ... . .

This translates out to: MUST DIE EIEEEEEE SEE

The third part was a bit odd (the eieeeeee part). I'm not sure if it's just a continuation of die in morse distortion (like dieeieeeeee) or if there's something else hidden in the hidden message. First off, the spacing is not the same as the rest of the video. The rest is obvious where the letters start and stop. For example, there are 17 frames between the D and the I. The ei is obvious too (a bit shorter though), but the eeeeee segment is not. It goes like this:

[] = one frame flash (aka, a dot)

[] 5 frames [] 5 frames [] 4 frames [] 3 frames [] 6 frames []

After that it finishes with the DIE segment in standard fashion.

Is it meant to be a number? 55436 Is it to be mixed with the letters? ei 55436.
It could be an address.

Perhaps I am reading too much into it, but you never know.

Edit: LoL, I assume that Leśniak looked at my youtube comment. Hopefully this message will give you guys more to work on.

WELL I'M WIDE AWAKE FOR WORK NOW THANK YOU SO MUCH TTA.

And yes, there's an extremely high-pitched tone at the beginning of the video. For a quarter-second I thought I was having a really bad bout of tinnitus.

In the video, in 0:14, the only part of the picture that doesn't
fit is the bottom left piece...I mean, it makes me think of that video when he sees slendy under the bridge. Of course, that could also just be his neck.

So many questions! I'm just dying to see what Jay tweets about this.

Maybe TTA, if it's Masky, means "you are broken" as "Your team/partnership with Jess to find Alex is broken and I'm not going to let you get her back." If TTA had something to do with them losing their memory in the hotel and snatching up Jess, maybe that was because they were on his trail. I guess we should find out more about that as we see more of the last 7 months of video.

I don't think it's an address at first blush. A five-digit number screams "ZIP code" to me, and 55436 is in the Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN area. Decidedly not Alabama. Hell, flip it, and 63455 isn't even a ZIP code.

To me, this seemed pretty clearly to be talking about Jay, his memories, and his viewing of the tapes. And heeeeere's why!

1. The Video's Title: Fragments, could easily be referring to the fact that Jay's memory is in literal, physical pieces (the tapes).
2. "You are Broken": Anyone else have a weird seven month gap in their memories? True, Jessica (maybe), but I'm still thinking the You here is Jay.
3. "You cannot be fixed": Tapes aren't going to help dude, stop with them, and get back to the search. Maybe, oh I don't know, find Alex? I already cut his picture into pieces, just wait and see what I do when I find him.

See what I mean? However, some weird stuff that may be throwing off my TTA-translation would be the that this isn't a video response (for once), and that therefore we can't be certain exactly who TTA is talking to. However, with the basic assumption that Jay = you, I think that translation is best.

EDIT TO ADD:
Hold on, if TTA is saying "hello again" NOW, that actually puts some credence on the TTA /= MASKY theory, since Masky DEFINITELY already greeted Jay this season.
However, I still don't believe it.

Except.

Has anyone talked about the tags on the video yet? "always see you"

OOG:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Maybe we ought to wait a while, to see if Troy adds the video as a response today. Remember, it was put up last night, and he was a bit sluggish tweeting the link for Entry 34. Perhaps it will become a response in the next several hours.

I almost crapped myself the first time watching this video, and then again when (having not gotten to the thread yet) deciphered the morse code frames in a fit of excitement.

That said, I really don't think the morse code is getting the attention it should. Hello, folks, TTA just said that someone MUST DIE. Isn't that kind of... HUGE?!

Seriously, WHO must die? Is he talking to Jay? I'm convinced he is and always has been, given that the TTA account as a whole was created as a response to the Marble Hornets account, and the first videos were put up as replies (although not all of them, if I recall correctly, WERE added as replies to specific MH videos, so this one may not be so much of an outlier there). If so, is he saying Jay must die? Put in context, it sounds like he's telling Jay "you're so broken, it'd be more worthwhile/easier/preferable to kill you than to fix you". Good god.

Is he talking about Alex, given that the pictures in the images are of Alex (look at those frames, guys!)? Is he saying ALEX must die? That would suggest that Alex is still alive -- and now in mortal danger.

Seriously, this is huge. This is the first time since BLEED MORE that it seems like TTA is directly threatening bodily harm on someone. I am worried as hell for Jay.

Personally, I hadn't really given any thought to it though because I tend to discount the morse code evidence as delving way too deeply into things, but upon reflection I guess that, that'd be a pretty "HUGE" coincidence.

Of course, you could even flip it another way, if TTA/MASKY really is anti-Slendy, he could be saying that it is tall, thin, and faceless who must die, not our lovely protagonist(s). But again, too little information, nothing seems directly to fit his usual MO.

Wait, how do you know?

Mostly because it looked like Alex... It certainly wore his glasses and had his smile.

I could be wrong. But I don't think I am.


Even if it is a picture from the past, why would TTA upload an image of him happy and smiling if he is dead?



This was way back on the first page, but... that smile was upside-down and later torn apart.




Also, regarding the lack of eyes in the second set of footage of the torn apart picture: maybe they're black, just like the mask? I don't know, I might be grasping at straws.

Thinking about it... perhaps TTA=Jay's split personality might be plausible.

My memory of season 1 has been lacking lately, but have we seen evidence that Jay has been subject to the sickness/paranoia/etc that Tim and Alex were put through, and if so, do a degree where this could reasonably occur?

the video was still good though, maybe tta hates people with tinnitus?

How would that explain Exit?
