This is Unfiction's new proverb.

Everybody follow it.

Everybody.

As for the puppet show debate, like I said in my post, I wasn't really sure what to make of it either, but what I assumed was that dude-hanging-from-tree could possibly in relation to the "spooky ghost story" that Alex had told Jay in what I think is Entry #38, but I'm not sure. As for the puppet that dissapeared, I've heard a lot of people proclaim that he simply went away or took himself out of the equation, but it looked to me like he was whisked, or taken out by force. I don't know who in this story that could pretain to, though. As for the hat puppet, he kind of looked like a farmer dude to me. Reminded me of Tim's character from Marble Hornets. That's the ony connection I made, though.

But of course, the puppet show having no specific meaning could also be possible.

 		Another angle on the hanging man could be that it's related to the symbolism of the Major Arcana in a Tarot deck.

According to A.E. Waite, the Hanging Man in the Tarot deck can represent:

1. Sacrifice ----- Letting go ----- Surrendering ----- Passivity

2. Suspension ----- Acceptance ----- Renunciation ----- Patience

3. New point of view ----- Contemplation ----- Inner harmony

4. Conformism ----- Non-action ----- Waiting ----- Giving up

It seems like everyone who has come into contact with TO has continued to fight against his influence, except for Alex, who it appears has come to a place of submission. While he doesn't always seem to be happy about his connection with the operator, he seems to stoically accept that this is his lot in life.

Could the hanging man represent Alex? In which case the wolf that is snatched away may represent someone else.

 		Well, I still do not see a man hanging on the scene, seriously ...
But if we assume that these two figures are people, and then we have the wolf and the tree, well, this reminds me terribly to "Peter and the Wolf" where all these elements are present, and that is a piece that is represented in puppet usually, since it is a children's story, and whose moral, curiously, is the importance of sincerity.

If it represents the importance of sincerity, it could be Totheark trying to stress that to Jay, contradicting the presence of the "liars" that are apparently everywhere. If Alex, the antagonist, is the wolf, in that case, the sudden dissapearence could symbolize the aforementioned's own vanishing act.

 		So now we've seen the latest entry - what does everyone take session to mean? We didn't find out who was TTA, all we got was a little bit of suspense thrown in with just a shitload more questions. I'm so confused right now, and the fact that the videos are coming out so far apart it's making it hard to remember what's going on and when the story asks more questions than it answers it makes it hard to keep interest.

I'm still loving the story, but just hard to say I'm 'in love with the story'.

Robodashy out!

 		I'm not sure if this has been said before in this thread or not but the term session is used quite commonly in TribeTwelve, I dont know if it's significant but I cant help but notice it.

Also TTA said "See you soon" and then in entry 58 we get a hoodie which basicly confirms that Hoodie uploaded this video.

Marble Hornets operates within its own universe. Sometimes the original legends evolve but not within one generation of series so to speak.

 		Session also said, "Close by, I see you, as always."

Hoody was probably stalking Jay's channel and knew that he and Tim were going to the annex; he led Jay to the tunnel so that he could "look closely" for whatever it is he needs to "find" in order for him to "understand."

 		Taking Session in context in 58, does anyone think that the mysterious figure at the end is Hoody? I'll have to rewatch and see if the area where Hoody appeared matches the video, but if it is, then that brings up an interesting question. If TTA made the video, saying that Hoody is watching, then is Tim the other member who said "see you soon"?

The way everything was worded, it sounded like this video was being addressed to Jay by one particular person. I guess the figure at the end could be anyone, but Totheark seemed to take excessive caution in making the frame look threatning, and if he wanted to emphasize that it was him that was watching, he might have made it more possible to pause on. I think he made it a point to include certain hints that he himself (Hoody) had posted the video by saying "Close by, I see you, as always," in the description. He used the pronoun "I" instead of "him," so it doesn't match up. That would just make the video inconsistent.

I'm a contendor of Genuine Timmnesia right now, so that makes it less likely for me to consider that Tim posted the video, but there's always the split-personality possiblity. One can never know, though.
