I have always thought the GF situation was IG. Still do.

Just saying. It's creepy.

I don't get the admission of screwing around vibe from TGF's new vid at all. The name and description are references to Alice and rabbit holes. The vid itself is shades of self's passing by each other unaware. All seems to coincide perfectly with recent EMH developments to me. Doesn't really offer any clues or new insight but feels very much inline with the rest anyways. I find it more odd that neither EMH or TGF have made a clear declaration one way or the other yet, and that members here who correspond OOG with the gang have not confirmed either. I think this gives even more reason to believe that TGF is indeed canon. We are meant to still question it at this point, but it is looking more and more like to me. Guess time will tell.

Actually, the fact that the main cast hasn't said anything yet is what makes me think it's a gamejack/greenfeathers screwing around. They can't just say it's a gamejack without it being out of character (which they would NEVER do), and they can't say it's him screwing around because some people could interpret that to mean he's canon (don't ask me how, but I remember it coming up last time he posted a video).
There are reliable ways of confirming it as canon, such as greenfeathers including shots of the Jeff&co. that we haven't seen in any of the canon videos or greenfeathers' personal footage of his meetup with them - which, obviously, has not happened.
Now, I know Jeff and/or the rest of them read these forums, so they would have seen me present this exact same argument of 'gamejack until proven otherwise' (since it is much, much easier to prove something is canon than not) the last time this came up. Or, well, not me specifically, probably, but it was a logical argument that was brought up multiple times - it would have been hard to miss. Therefore, if greenfeathers WAS canon, it probably would have been proven in his latest video, since they know how much grief bickering over whether or not greenfeathers is canon has caused us. Since it obviously was not, I am still going to assume greenfeathers is not canon.
This isn't to say it's impossible for him to be canon; only that it is highly unlikely, and unless/until he is proven to be canon, it would be beneficial for people to assume he is not.

ETA: It is not in any way my intention of telling you what to think by saying this; it is only my opinion and as logical of an explanation as I can provide of why I think it. Sorry if it came off as snobbish/etc. Smile

I think we're just in an unfortunate spot when it comes to GF.

If it is something that GF is doing on his own, I don't think there is an incentive from Jeff or one of the guys to scream down with the Voice of God to condemn it. The only thing we have linking GF's videos to EMH is the brief excerpts from the videos he(GF) has already taken. If this was a case of GF claiming to know where Jessa is or something, I'm sure Jeff would find away to condemn them(Sorta like how they immediately tweeted when the "gay slur" stuff started to get out of hand). Plus, enough of us are regular readers of his IRL blog, so he knows he had has an outlet there.

Ultimately, I'd be willing to bet that as it stands now, GF's stuff is at worst a red herring and at best totally relevent and IG.

All in all, besides being cool to watch, I don't think GF's videos give much insight to what's going(YET)

Since we really can't prove it either way, I say it's best to ignore the GF videos all together.
We ignore the last two videos that were not wholly confirmed to be IG/OOG , and I think we should do the same here.
All in all, it doesn't give us much information anyway, other than that meeting the EMH guys in person could be hazardous for your health, assuming that Slendy had rubbed off on GF; which, while adding atmosphere, doesn't give us anything tangible to work with.
Instead of getting in a fuss about it it is likely the best to let sleeping dogs lie until they wake up naturally, or remain asleep.

ANYWAY

While I like the idea of Alex being HABIT we can't prove that either.
I'm still leaning towards Vince (because there /has/ to be something more to him. He is way too stoic and static and uninvolved, especially with all the newly garnered information.), but can't prove that either.
Of course we have the most evidence for Evan, but... as one of the mining town 4, I don't know if that makes sense. we haven't seen any more mention of HABIT in the corenthal papers either, so I really wonder about that.

super curious about the password thing. i have wondered in passing if it would be the password to GF's account, like...ok, someone mentioned that the people in GFs last vid were 'shades', so...it made me think, that if GF posted a really important Private video, but set it so that no one could see but the account user, that the password would let us see it, but then I realized, this was a stupid theory as we aren't even sure of the canon-osity of the GF vids anyway, and Jeff mentioned the password paper as being from his old stash, way before GF was involved. [yay i kill my own epileptic trees]
but what in the world could the password be for?

That's what I'm wondering, Soleil.

What the hell needs a password in the EMH verse? What's locked away that we know about?

Unless it's some sort of code that shields the guys from temporal shenenigans(which is no fun), I'm drawing blank

well I considered that the USB Evan received could have a password protected section, but I doubt that since it was said in the vid that he received it from someone else. Perhaps it is to soemthing that one of them does own though.
It's more likely that it belongs to soemthing they will find soon though.m or further down the road when we've all but forgotten about the password thing all together.

The only things I could think of that had passwords were all the twitters, their E-mails, and Damsel's Stephanie's tumblr, but, uh, I tried the E-mails and twitters, just in case, and it doesn't work ^^;. Didn't expect it to. Oh, but, idea: Maybe it's the password to Evan's new (not so new anymore) computer, and there'll be incriminating HABBY stuff on there... but, I'm not sure how we could bring it up to the guys to try that on a completely unfounded hunch ("o hai, go hack into your friend's computer and find his secretz for us kthx")

Also: I think this is the second time I'm bringing it up, and I'm not on Angora much anymore so maybe/probably it's been addressed? But, didn't Grieck say

I can guarantee that by tomorrow we will definitely have an answer to GF being canon or not.
?

And then he didn't post again 'till yesterday. But, again, he's probably been on Angora, right? And he probably just never got an answer from his source or he's just been too busy to post. (Or, "he's not allowed to say 'cause they don't want him to spoil it", is what I keep thinking, but, that's me just being paranoid, I think!)

Slightly more on-topic: If HABIT is the Lamb, wouldn't that make him the Jesus figure of the story?


Well clearly Jesus is a dick.


But no, this was the issue the last person to discuss with me had; This is symbolism, it doesn't need to deal in absolute role pairings. Place a person in each figure's shadow and have them go about in similarities, nothing more.

Well said Porphyrophobia. I tend to think the silence leads more credibility to TGF and you see it the other way, both are valid opinions. Nobody knows the truth for now and it is just painful. Seems like the whole series feeds off strife and discord for the characters and us as well. Brilliant stuff.

It's the lure we all feel a little, I think.

Plus HABIT said in his tweets that he was abroad, and as far as we know none of the guys have been missing for any extended period of time. I think that pretty concretely excludes any of them from being HABIT.



Or that HABIT can jump from body-to-body which is something I've assumed from the start.


Or HABIT could just have been lying.

I think he was lying/blustering about being all over in various exotic locales of catastrophe. It's mystique.

Yeah. Alex's hat is missing. I'm... I don't know what to say about that.

Well, congratulations on... "winning" and thanks for transcribing the latest letter. I mean, it doesn't seem that Memory Town is that far away.
But I don't think we'll be going there any time soon. Or that we would find anything. We're trying to get in touch with Jessie and trying to tie things together with her whole family connection. We'll see what's up, soon enough.

Thanks, man. And good luck going forward.
-Jeff

Oh! They took a suggestion I made (Jessie) that they were totally going to do anyway! Nice.
