Now Alex steals Evan's place as the most agressive character on a slendy series.

How about Alex sent the tape, but they didn't met the first time and just continue to be there. Masky picked J's trail and followed him to the house. Alex was watching, waiting for J.

Did someone thought of the TTA's entries as a warning? Would it match? Perhaps Alex WAS aware of J's quest, on youtube, and then he tried to make him o forget about anything with the cryptic videos, so he wouldn't be recognized?


I think that Alex would have avoided anything to do with Marble Hornets (his movie and J's youtube account) once he said burn the tapes. It's possible he watched the Introduction video, but his reaction in Entry 26 says otherwise.

I doubt he watched this in the two days between 26 and 34.

I'm sticking with "Jay came alone not knowing Alex was there, but someone left him a clue to go there, Alex walks in knowing someone was hiding where Tim sprang from." I don't know if Jay and Alex met before, but I think they didn't talk to each other the day of #35's filming and didn't plan on going together. I also don't know if Alex knew Jay was in there before walking in the front and spotting him, but he knew something alive was in there.

Remember when someone mentioned Alex was holding his arms slightly out when he called to Jay and he turned around? Here's my speculation:

It was a highly subconscious action. I think Alex saw Jay first and thus knew that Jay did not know Alex was there. Therefore, when he alerted Jay of his presence, he held his hands out to the side in a non-threatening manner. The purpose of this action is to make your hands highly visible and show that they are empty of weapons in order to earn the person's trust. If you think about it, it's very commonly seen, but seldom explained. I think it was subconscious because of the small degree to which it was pronounced; he barely changed his stance at all. He simply moved his hands outward a few inches rather than holding his hands palms-forward way over his head, which would have been very pronounced.

But here's the clincher: He would not have done that at all, if he knew that Jay knew that he was already there! So there you have my theory; Jay didn't know Alex was there, Alex walked in on him.

anyone remember that the camera was pointing to the road leading up to the house, and Alex wasn't there? Yeah, more proof (IG and from a directorial POV) he just showed up.

We need a seperate thread for the "Did they / Didn't they?" debate so that Zaden can further support my point of view. Very Happy

I guess we're still talking about this then.

I still feel that Alex showed up knowing (or at least suspecting) that Tim/Masky would be there, but Jay showing up wasn't planned on. It is very likely that either Tim/Masky or TTA sent the package to Jay.

I think the theory that Masky was waiting for Jay and Jay alone is ten times more plausible that the theory of Alex meeting Jay before this.
If Alex/Jay had met before, why didn't Jay post that tape.
It IS kind of important.

Because there is none. Obviously Jay could not have filmed every minute of his life during those seven months - he could've met Alex spontaneousy, and he'd hardly be like "nice to see you, but just wait right there while I get my camera... you're not still camera shy are you?".

Or even if he had filmed it, keep in mind that the contents of the safe were not necessarily put there by Jay. It seems more likely that Masky put the tapes there, so naturally there might be some missing, and what's left might be highly edited. It wouldn't be the first time.

I just re-watched that part. His arms weren't especially wide at all. And even if they were, people often do that when walking slowly or sneaking, to keep balance while tip-toeing.

If he was paranoid... yes, he really could. Except maybe drawing the line at the toilet.

I'm pretty sure the point made in earlier Entries was: yes, J does record every moment of his life and so did Alex until he got out.

Time to settle this.

Signed up to Twitter for the sole purpose of asking J if he's watching the labeled tapes in chronological order and if he is are there more tapes of him meeting Alex before this.

He's answered questions and comments before. Let's hope he stops this debate.

EDIT - Granted, he's responded once on Twitter, but I'm sure his latest tweet was because lof lots of questions.

He's already said that he's watching the tapes in chronological order, and if there was a meeting with alex on the tapes, I'm sure he would have posted it. The issue is whether there is anything missing from the tapes that he has.

See, I know this, and you know this, but people keep doubting it.

If he responds then it should cause people to stop posting. If he doesn't then I have reason to doubt J. I actually trust him. TTA ruined his secrets before so there's no reason to assume J doesn't think TTA will do it again. I think he's opening up to us since he actually posted that.

There's always the chance that Jay simply hasn't watched enough tapes. He did said that the tapes aren't in perfect order.

I thouht that rough order was because of the unlabeled tapes in the stack, but I suppose there could be a little order shuffle... But I'm doubting it.

I should also mention that this forum is my new home right now. I'm sleep deprived, slightly severely addicted and likely to argue more. Sorry about that~ Razz

I really support the view that they didn't meet before because J would have posted that video; however, it's possible that there's some missing information on the unlabeled tapes.
