Yeah, I was thinking he's just passing the time, since he doesn't really have anything else to do. Maybe if or when it get's decoded, it will give Jay something else to do, while he waits for Tim to say "Okay, let's go".


And it makes total sense IG, as these events surrounding TTA and The Operator are seriously something which, if happening to any regular person, they would be devoting all of their time towards dealing with.

No one ever said that Jay is a regular person.

I hope troy learns next time not to make the code so hard. These tweets are breaking immersion because we know it's really troy giving us clues on how to solve it, even though it's posed as jay trying to solve it.

I'm going to laugh so hard when the code is terribly simple and we've all been overthinking it.

"Two of the pairs are mirrors and are grouped together twice. 27-72 and 57-75. Not sure what that could mean yet though. Common letters?"

I think Jay's just used to seeing the answers a day or two after the TTA entry posted somewhere. Now that were struggling so much, hes deciding to pitch in and help? Or passing time cus now all he can really do is sit and twiddle his thumbs.

Jay's been a simpleton thus far and even borderline stupid. He always made up for it in gut though (who the hell else would have went back to the house?).

I hope they don't change him too much.

Since we know it's really Troy, that means the immersion was already broken. I think what he's doing with the tweets is perfectly acceptable.

I hear people talk about Jay's stupidity a lot, but I really don't see it. Sure he's made mistakes (and I don't count venturing into dangerous areas mistakes, I consider them calculated risks, because he knows he could wind up in trouble), but he's also supposed to be a regular (albiet courageous) person in a very irregular situation. His intellect seems to be on par with that of any average joe-testicles having to deal with supernatural troubles, homelessness due to arson, and masked stalkers.

You know what's immersion breaking?

Waiting two fucking months for a new entry.

I'd make the argument that it'd be immersion breaking if events in Jay's life happened at weekly intervals or whatever.

Oi! Put that rage back in the rage thread. Your last rage post lacked the rage you are posting here. :V

You know what's really immersion-breaking? Everyone on the discussion forum going on about how it's a fictional story. Especially in threads that aren't dedicated to OOG discussion. Razz

Hard to ignore the fact that it's a fictional story when they don't keep feeding us fucking entries. Evil or Very Mad

Just noticed a few of these numbers have a pattern. First digit plus two. 13, 24, 57, 68, 79 all follow it.

Seems kinda wierd that they're introducing this number thing now, when the story already has a solid lead to go in with the hospital return.
