 		I really think there should be a re-poll for this now.

EDIT: Re-poll? Is that a word?

I agree, given that a lot of this is old speculation, the poll is fucked to the sky, and at least two of the answers make absolutely zero sense given the end of Season 2.

I get the impression that TTA has a leader (Hoody), while the others just sorta do his bidding.
I mean, just look at the way Masky attacks Alex in Entry #45, while Hoody just sits behind him, watching.


It always seemed to me that both Masky and Hoody were just two members (and possibly the only members) of TTA that are being controlled by Slenderman so they can assist in helping him carry out his dasterdly plan, whatever that is. I think Slendy likes to utilize Tim as Masky more than he does Brain(?) as Hoody, or if Masky has Slendy-like abilities and has Brian following him around like a working associate, but it never seemed to me like either one of them was a "leader" over the other. I don't think either of them have any idea of what they're doing when they're not Tim and Brian(?).

 		I really don't think the Operator is controlling TTA. Everything we've seen so far leads me to think TTA wants to kill Alex as revenge for Big Op somehow messing TTA up.

This seems to make the most sense to me, however, what exactly did Alex or the Operator do? For whatever reason Alex brought Seth, Tim, and Brian to the Operator, but now they are free and acting normal (at least appear to be).

Only Tim is acting normal. Brian's MIA, Seth appeared on camera never, and Jay is..well...Jay.

I guess I could partly see where you would be coming from with that assumption, but even still it confuses me. If your suggesting that TTA is just composed of people that enjoy simply screwing around for the sake of it and have nothing to do with the Operator or any of the Slenderscrew, then what were they doing in the first place? And if they're just merely humans that aren't affected by any outside at all, why aren't they afraid and/or going crazy because of Slenderman and instead trying to get "revenge" on him? Further more, are you insinuating that they're basically trying to murder Alex before Slenderman just to get him mad? Don't they know that he's an otherwordly figure that is possibly way more dangerous than any ordinary opposing force? And what could have Slenderman possible done to "mess them up"? What were they trying to do that *got* messed up? Why was Slendy involved?

I think Slendy has worked out this long master plan that's strategically all screwed up in every corner just to throw Jay off-balance and get to Alex more easily...it seems to me that, in a case where he *would* be controlling TTA, he, for some reason, wants Jay to complete his search (which would clear up the reason it would seem that Masky is actually a good guy) so that he'll find something that will lead him to hurt or kill Alex, thus completing Slendy's evil mind games on everyone. Of course, ther are certain elements to this agenda that I'm sure pretty much nobody knows because it's impossible at this point to be sure of Slendy's motives and plans, but we can at least try to make sense of it all.

In Entry #Something, a lot of people speculated that Masky had "led" Jay out of the room so he could screw with the camera and mess with him, but how could Masky have done thatif he didn't have any supernatuarl abilities? Needless to say, that leads to the speculation that he couldn't just be "any" guy. Not to mention, the camera often getting dostrted when it spotted Masky or was around him, which indicates that either Slenderman was around puppeting him, or his Slendy-particles "rubbed off." Which means that Masky would have had to been around him. And Masky has something to do with Totheark. So.

The only one we really know about is Tim. It sounds to me that, by you saying they were "brought" to the Operator, that they were being controlled by him, in which case, I'm sure they would not be under the hypnosis all the time. When we saw Tim acting normal, it was because he, at that time, was not udner Slendy's crazy mindcontrol. I always thought that the reason he was going to the mental doctor was because he thought he thought he was going crazy from memory loss, since it appears that when you're under Slendycontrol, you lose all memory of it which would explain Jay's lost time.

I haven't reviewed the entries sufficently since the first time I watched them, so there might be speculations in this comment that are entirely irrelevant. In which case, I apologize.

 		Tim and Brian were fed to him in #51 and then attempted to murder Alex in #45, only to run away from the Operator, who has been a part of Alex ever since #37/14/26/43.

Since TTA can't get back at the Op, they're settling for getting back at Alex, for the time being.

How is it not clear that TTA are fully antagonistic to the Operator, and not controlled by him?

Actually, Jay is the one who ran away from the Operator.

Also there's no reason to assume that Operator and Alex are connected outside of that one creepyface entry in his apartment, can't remember the number.

Wait... what? Jay wasn't even in Entry #45.

Ah, I'm sorry, I got #45 confused with the other time Tim tried to murder Alex in cold blood, in #52. In #45, it's never clear who Tim and the other person (who is not confirmed to be Brian, but probably is/was) were running from.

Though, I'd like to point out here if I haven't before that Alex saying "the next time I see you I'll kill you" doesn't really apply, given that literally thirty seconds before you were at their mercy. But hey.

Tim being fed to the Operator seems highly unlikely to me. While it's pretty unclear as to why he was there in the first place, he didn't come with Alex to the building which indicates he was there on his own time, and that makes it seem a lot less strategic. Secondly, we don't fully know who Tim and Hoody ran away from in Entry #45. It may have been the Operator, sure, but there's always the possiblity, in favor of my theory, that if it was, the Operator was warding them away. Albeit, I don't think it was him they were running away from.

Further more, having the information we got in Entry #55 changes a lot of ground. Tim now seems to be one of the earliest subjects to have fallen under the Slendyscrewing, which even further lessens the possibility that Alex "fed" him to Slendorator.

The questioning I have that lends to this theory was already remarked in my previous comment.

Please do not get frustrated with me. I know some of my comments may sound stupid, but this entire plot is far too ambiguous for any of us to be too sure of ourselves. I came here so that I could share my theories and speculations and hear from others. I don't want to feel afraid to do that.

 		Can we like, get a new poll on this? Sorry if that's been said before, but uh, that poll is just sad.

 		Just wanted to note that in "Decay," TTA says that Jay will lead "me" to the ark. Not saying that means TTA ISN'T multiple people, but... whoever it is has said "me" multiple times haven't they? What do we think about that?

It's so weird, because in Entry #### we see tons of masky shots, and in said video "You will lead ME to the ark" is still said. But... with the introduction of Hoody (Who we have not actually seen for a damn long time) "ME" is still the pronoun of choice, if you will.
