Compared to Alex, Jay has been wasting a lot of time. Alex was filming himself all the time, setting up scenarios where he could chase down the Operator. Even when it was getting too risky, Alex kept on pushing. His drawings and mad writings might have been his way of trying to puzzle through what was going on.

Alex thought that watching the tapes would be enough, that it would catch Jay up to where Alex's investigation had ended. ToTheArk assumed the same thing, and is frustrated with Jay's lack of progress. Other than follow where ToTheArk's clues have led him, Jay hasn't really made any bold actions.


^This.

Maybe we will see more ballsy moves of Jay in the future? :O

Don't take this the wrong way--but when I read these I laughed because I know what you mean--like J needs to stop lolly-gagging around and get TO something that projects things forward in a satisfying fashion.....
This having been said--when you think of it--J has been PLENTY "ballsy" so far--in fact--we constantly chide him for it and create funny memes and macros regarding how "ballsy" *cough* stupid/idiotic/moronic *cough* J is sometimes...but I mean that in a humorous and endearing way.
Where would we be if J didn't explore houses/woods/towers etc etc at the wrong time,alone,at the wrong hour,etc etc? Laughing

 		What might those two lights be, though?

They definitely make me think of eyes, but I don't really think that they ARE eyes of anyone/anything.

Might just be TTA "recreating" the scene from Entry # 1, the whole setup on the porch in front of Alex's house with the Operator "watching", standing there close to it.

Also, this makes me think Alex might be TTA, but I'll go ahead and go post that in the Who's TTA? thread, since this isn't for that :3

 		That 'ballsy move' thing just made me think of something OOG
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
In Tim's Freeman Fridays (Half Life 2 let's plays) Troy mentioned something about if anyone ever made a $20 joke to him in real life, he would punch them with his giant balls.


Anyway... I tried doing some audacity noise removal, but all still sounds garbled. I feel like there's some tiny tiny voices almost throughout the whole thing, but most notable at 18-21.

Also, I seem to be warming up to the theory that those deep, garbled voices are The Operator trying to communicate. We've heard noises like this before AROUND The Operator. The first thing that comes to mind is 29 and the entry where Jay is exploring the bathhouse (23?).

Also the buzz at the end. That's been heard a lot around the Operator, and most recently, around Masky in 35.

Phhs, that' nothing! Jay should actively search for Slendy and settle things mano-a-mano!

PS: I feel bad for my misspelling of balls Sad

 		The shadow in entry 1 seems to be a mailbox to me. I doubt it's a shadow of a person, unless it's the Operators shadow, considering that TTA wasn't even an idea when #1 was posted to the YouTubes.

TTA sounds like a nagging mother. Where have we seen a nagging mother recently?

GUYS! Noah's mom is TTA! Giant MH/TT/EMH crossover!


First of all, if there was some crazy MH/TT/EMH crossover, that would be the most awesome thing I have ever seen.

Secondly, getting back to the video, it really does feel like TTA is getting impatient and frustrated. The messages are the most clear they've been, almost like he saying "Do I have to hold your hand and walk you through this like a baby to get what I want?"

I'm definitely also hearing voices in the noise. Maybe like in the earlier tta vids, it's part of audio from one of Jay's entries? I am hearing a conversation, so possible Alex and Jay arguing from one of the past entries.

I'd like to make clear though that me hearing voices in the video doesn't mean I'm sure they're there.

Also, I don't think the Operator has a "voice". He definitely has certain typical effects he produces, maybe you could call his slendy-trademark interference noise something like a voice then.
But really, somehow the idea of Slendy actually having something like a voice to communicate would make him less creepy to me. Just complete silence forever.. that scares me.

 		once i noticed the bench/swing perspectives side by side, it made me reaaally hope that it was from slendy's POV. i've had the distant hope that some of the "footage" that we've seen in the past is either his thoughts or his POV

 		Alex Says "Jay, I'm outside the woods. I don't know why you decided to go in there, but, get out here. Now." in the previous entry, maybe that's what the voice is.

I am convinced that there is some speaking in there,too and would have checked it out with Audacity by now but have been too busy playing with the visuals.

That would fit really well!! Ok--I think I need to fuck with Audacity now too even though I suck at it. Wink

 		We know OOG that the guys didn't think of TTA until midway through making season one. It is for this reason that I do not for a moment believe there is anything else to be seen in the original entry. They would have to film new things in order to actually place it into the timeline there.

That said, I believe the circles are headlights, IE, the headlights that barely illuminate the Operator is his first chronological appearance while Alex is driving. The first entry shows the Operator at his house, which comes chronologically after Alex is driving. This video is all about the beginning, and that was the real beginning.

But I do legitimately wonder what TTA could mean by saying that so much more than time has been lost. In ###### he declared that they would wait no longer, and that (Jay) would lead them to the Ark. His assertion that important things have been lost implies some sense of personal loss, as opposed to being impatient about accomplishing his goal.

All of this leads me back to...what is the significance of the Operator appearing to Alex and his crew in the first place? What is TimMasky trying to accomplish? What is TTA trying to accomplish? And how does it revolve around Jay?

I also believe that at this point, Alex is either dead, or disappeared in the same way Seth and Brian supposedly disappeared. Jay has both of his cameras and all of his footage, but no contact from Alex other than what we've seen during the missing 6 months.

 		TTA could always mean Amy's definitely dead since he/she seems to know more than we or Jay do. Maybe TTA's systematically murderin' people who discover the Operator as a sort of coverup and lets them reach the end of their own story before killing em off ramblerambleramble.....anyway......hmm, what's this? :

Thins for this theory:
+ The glowing eyes that pop up (he was there in the dark when the operator was there, like a stalking cat.) => This could mean that TTA follows The Operator or that he was stalking Alex before he stalked Jay.

Must...rewatch...The Collector..........cat eyes.

I think this, along with Entry #42, could give us a clue as to what The Operator actually does to people. Alex said that he needed help finding Amy. Does this mean there's some sort of legitimate hope for people that The Operator makes disappear? Something that Alex discovered after the events of Entry #22? Maybe the victims are being kept prisoner somewhere, whether it's in a slenderdimension or just by their own forgotten memories, and Alex knows how to get them out. I'm not by any means ruling out that people have simply died...but I find it interesting that Alex is looking for Amy as if she can be found somewhere, whereas in Entry #22, he's completely hopeless.
