But you're changing facts that are pretty much given in the series. You only assume that Alex is lying when what he says contradicts with what you think happened. Yet when he actually has motivation to lie, you assume he's telling the truth.


If someone in the series says that Tim was taken, then Seth was taken, THEN Brian was taken, then you should write the chronology LIKE THAT. You need to have a real reason to think that he's lying before you accuse him of doing so. Otherwise, I could say that the "we don't know where Brian is" line is a lie, too. Do you see the problem?
YOU are the one taking irrelevant details and making assumptions when facts of the series contradict you.


I'm not using "hypotheticals", I'm trying to see how your chronology is possible. It just isn't. You can't explain how Tim went from #51 to #20 in a single day. We have reason to believe it was a single day because Alex said so, and HE had no reason to lie at that point. YOU are using your own unproven theories and "hypotheticals" to support your chronology, but the given facts don't agree.

I know you like to be honest and tell people when their theories are wrong. This is one of those theories...

EDIT: And if this is just YOUR opinion, you should say so in the title of the thread or something. If you really want to give "insight" into the chronology of the series, you need to adjust your theory to conform to the facts, not the other way around. Have you heard of confirmation bias? Yeah, this is it.

I have a question.

Alex was sleeping in Brian's house in Entry #11. He mentions in Entry #22 that he ran away to there because he was being terrorized by The Operator. How true that is exactly I don't know, but we do know he lived in Brian's house in Entry #11.

Ultimate point: Wouldn't that put Entry #11 after Entry # 51, since Brian isn't in his own house in Entry #11? I mean, Brian is obviously gone at that point.

entry 11 was alex's house, not brians. in 22 he claims he's going home, either to his home in the town where he lived in season 1, or perhaps he had a house in the town with rosswood. by entry 51 alex and the operator are well aware of each other and are working together. in entry 11 he still seems to be looking out for the operator, and the operator seems to be hiding from him as well.


brians house is the house from entries 16,18,20, and 23. possibly 17 as well.

alex's apartment in entries 44 and 46 looked like he was packing up to move or something, but that can be attributed to irl that they were moving to a new house. would be cool if alex is moving from place to place sacrificing people and then moving on to the next, but i don't think it's likely that that's the case.

Really? I thought that people basically thought that was Brian's house. I'm gonna look this up. *Google search*

Here's something! At the bottom of this page on the wikidot: http://marblehornets.wikidot.com/the-house

OOG:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Also I'm pretty sure that they said in the DVD Commentary for Entry #11 that OOG it's the same location, and that they "Worked it into the plot."

oh wow that actually fits in perfectly with my theory

alex realizes his house is compromised so he starts staying at brians to avoid the operator. entry 8 happens soon before 11 and then 20 comes after that (alex is in brians house without him there again)

You haven't explained how Sarah is TTA yet, or why there are four people with variations of Tim's mask. Until you do so I won't take this thread serious

Just a note on enttry #37, the distorted voice at the end singing Happy Birthday is not Alex's dad but his mom (or another woman) pitched down.
