Well, Pravado has spoken. Phew. I was afraid for a minute that Marble Hornets wouldn't have any idea how to properly run their own series. Thanks for letting them know Pravado. We'll all sleep a little easier knowing you're directing traffic for them.

I'm pretty sure they are not in the editing phase. They may have had to go back for some pick up shots, but that happens with any production.

 		Tisephoy, if you can read this, PLEASE TWEET AT LEAST A MONTH IN ADVANCE BEFORE GOING TO LOCATIONS IN A TIME SENSITIVE FASHION SO WE CAN GET PROPERLY PSYCHED FOR IT!

 		you guys are missing the point

they said they're going to the hospital this weekend. weekend is over and no word about it

then someone says troy said they had to go back and shoot stuff but couldn't cause of the weather, meaning we won't see the entry for a while

it'll probably be covered up by a "just woke up, don't remember anything about the past week, here's the footage i have though"

 		I feel bad now, shouldn't have spread Troy's answer. I really believe they are making their best, in order to give us a GREAT entry they need to shoot some details again.

At least that is what i WANT to believe...

Then stop watching. Problem solved.

 		Why do people act like Pravado's bitching is a new thing? I would think people would learn to casually ignore it by this point.

 		Waaaaah someone's critiquing the creators let's all rage out about it!

And good advice from pravado, I'd rather wait a week with no word and have it all match up than 'early' warning and a gap.

 		I follow Troy on Twitter and I don't even see any tweet about bad weather slowing production. Did he say it on Facebook or what? Because I definitely don't see anything about that on Twitter.

 		I don't know if we are missing the point, Pravado. Jay said he was going to hospital, and he went. He never said he was going to tell us when he came back. I don't tell everyone every time I get back from something.

Hey guys, I'm going to the mall to buy shoes.
(an hour later)
Okay, I'm back from the mall. Got shoes.

It's pointless and stupid, and it doesn't need to be done.

I'm sorry if you're such a narcissistic individual that you think Troy and Joseph and Tim will change their schedules just for you. No one should be that delusional and self-centered. They don't care what you think, and it's a pity that you think they do.

The entry will come when the entry comes, and until then, be patient and be glad you get new entries at all. If you'd rather it end up like "The Mystery of Edwin Drood," or "The Canterbury Tales," or, if those are too erudite for you, "Pushing Daisies," or like "The Wheel of Time" almost ended, that's on you, and I'm sorry for you.

You're like a little kid who doesn't understand why he can't go to Disney right now, and doesn't understand that sometimes stuff happens and things get delayed, but that's life, dude. Sometimes you have to wait, and sometimes you have to wait a long time for the things you want, but don't need, or even necessarily deserve.

tl;dr: Shut up and deal.

Yeah, I kind of agree with pravado on this one. Jay is such a tease... I'd rather hear nothing and not have to think about it than get updates from twitter on my phone at 1 am, get really excited, and then find out that there's nothing. Sad

Someone sent him an email asking how long it would take for the new entry to come out or something.

Pravado, correct me if I'm wrong, but this wasn't so much a complaint about the release dates of the entries as it was about misleading tweets, am I right? Because I agree that tweeting something that suggests urgency or immediate action and then not updating for days is kind of silly. Like when Jay was livetweeting on his way to rescue post-seizure, Masky-state Tim. You can't just build up suspense like that and leave people hanging. It's better to wait until the entry is almost done, THEN tweet about it, so that you can keep up the realism and no one will get annoyed. Razz

So I think that was legitimate criticism.... That said, I like the work Trosephim puts into their entries and wouldn't want to rush them to produce something of lesser quality... I just don't see why we get tweets suggesting that something will happen soon and then no update for days.

In most cases I'd agree, when it comes to tweets that come off like they're just being made to filll in the void, but that's different from actually tweeting about doing something important like returning to the abandoned hospital.

This is where I disagree with him. All the tweet really established to us is that they were going to the hospital Sunday, which will probably wind up being the case anyway. I can see how that can imply a new entry soon, but on the other hand, we're no stranger to Jay doing important things than dropping off the radar for a while afterward. Plus, we don't know how much filming Troy actually had left to do when he sent that message. Basically I don't think Troy is actually guilty of misleading fans. At this point we should only expect a new entry if Jay specifically says there's going to be one soon.
