The Masky cast theory A discussion on a fan theory I heard Okay so I was recently on the wmg page for Marble Hornets on TvTropes and I read a fan theory I find both plausible and interesting.
As we all should know by now many believe that entry #######
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7QXQZjp5XM
shows four different masked individuals instead of just one (Tim).
This theory suggests that the other three maskys are the other members of the crew members of marble hornets (the short film alex was making)
meaning that if we exclude alex the others would be sarah (the film's leading lady), Brian (one of alex's friends who helped with the production), and Jay himself.
Now all of this got me thinking this could actually add up
in entry 22
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Y7_WP9HOME
Alex refer's to other four as "gone"
but obviously he can't mean missing because Jay was still in town and so was Tim
He might have meant "gone" as in against him
Maybe when Alex discovered Slendy was following him he told his friends
but they turned against him
for some reason Jay forgot this (along with much of marble hornets production)
So when totheark says "return to us" he's telling Jay to remember being a masky.
Wow this is tl;dr! but I think there could be something to this line of thinking.
Thoughts?

The only other mask I know of is Skully. The other masks are obviously distorted versions of the regular Masky mask.

1:all the different masky's had different body types hell one of them looked very defiantly female.
2:only one of them had HUGE SIDEBURNS

Again, this can be explained by the tools used to distort the images. For the sake of argument, it would be nice if you posted the side-by-side (or top-by-bottom, I guess) images so that you could point out which ones you mean to be which members.
Keep in mind that #22 was filmed ICly in 2006. ###### was uploaded in 2010. There is no evidence to suggest that ###### was filmed at the same time as Alex mentions that the four are gone, so drawing a correlation between the two instances assumes a great leap of time in which the four get back together again just to make that video... but if that's the case, why ? We have no evidence that Alex is watching, and if you're purporting that Jay, Tim, Sarah and Brian are behind the making of ######, it would seem that that was the only person left to direct the message to.
Jay also mentions that he didn't upload the video, and that he left his house shortly after it was uploaded. One could argue that obviously he donned a mask when he was out of it, that because Tim didn't know what was happening in #15, it's one of those things where a person loses their memories when wearing the mask... but that relies on Tim telling the truth in #15, and it could equally as likely be that Tim was lying; why would Jay run from his apartment directly afterwards and then have it torched if ###### was not meant to be directed at him, but at Alex?
I suppose what I'm foggy about with this theory is, why ? Why go to the effort to film this and upload it to Jay's account if all of the Masky's are against Alex?

I don't see how you can get basically any information about their "different builds" from that image.
If you mean the different Masky sightings in different entries appear to have different physiques, I think that it would be more effective to go back through the entries, screenshot the things you see as different, and maybe even then compare them side-by-side to screenshots of the builds of the people you say they are.

Ehhhh, don't think so.
First one appears to have his trademark jacket.
Second is obviously Tim
Third's mask still looks like Tim's, but the clothes are different, so idk.
And then Skully. No idea about him.

Dray for this theory I'm assuming that Jay is no longer a masky just that he was at some point.
Entry ###### was directed towards Jay the other masky's hijacking his youtube account to get his attention the footage that shows the four different masky's one of them likely being himself was likely pre-recorded footage
the whole video plays out like
"bro you abandoned us remember the good times you had with us? we tried to wait for you to come back to us on your own but now we are taking it into our own hands we are coming to get you and it will be like it used to be."
I'm not saying this is a very likely scenario but it does make a bit of sense.
Also the third masky in the picture doesn't look female to any one else?

I don't get different builds off of those, either. Again, differences can easily be attributed to different kinds of distortion. Do you have any other reason to believe that there are four maskies aside from the fact that Alex has four crew-mates and there are four, differently-distorted mask-images across two or more different videos? (You could say that there are six different maskies, using Warning's two differently distorted images to back your claim, if that were the case.)
eta: In the image you link, there are only 'three' different maskies from ######; the fourth is from a video posted two months later and therefore should have no bearing on ######'s message.
To what end are the three to four different maskies working, if there are multiple copies (as it were?) Do they have a plan? Why do we only ever see Tim or (maybe.
Maaaaaaaaaaaaybe
Jaypotentiallyohgodthisisastupidthingtopositisn'tit) in the other videos?
This theory seems like it is just grasping to include characters that could potentially be dead or otherwise missing.
And... wow, I'm a moron, I forgot. What about Seth? Would that not preclude some kind of fifth Masky if we're running with this?

3rd one looks female to me, but I could also see it as being a distortion of Tim.
Then there's Skully, and I have no idea what to make of him.

I'm just going to say "Seriously?" to this.
Saying that the "third mask" in that series of images is feminine is asinine. The third image is so heavily distorted that I can barely tell it's human, let alone what gender it is. And Aperion, read my long post further down on the page you linked. Just do it. Please.

Uhhh... why are we basing an entire theory on pictures that provide no actual evidence? With that kind of backing, I could say that the first picture points to an alien sighting...
This thread makes me sad.

Who are the "many" who believe this theory besides you? Stop creating useless threads with the same disputed arguments and evidence in the vain hope someone will eventually agree.
