Re: Operator Symbol?

Maybe the symbol really does "summon" TO, or acts as some kind of porthole from Operator-land to Normal-land, which was essentially Alex saying "Hey yo, I'm in trouble Op-dawg, mind getting yo pasty white ass over here and saving a homie, man?"

The Operator looks up, dramatically-- "My Slendy senses are tingling!"

Oh jeez I'm crying. Lmao

In the footage we have seen, the Hooded Man appears to be "rescuing" Tim from his collapse at the Hospital as seen in Entry #65.

The above is a quote from the Wikidot site, and it made me think...
I've often just assumed that Jay has woken up in his car before and whatnot, without knowing how he got there, and that it was the Operator doing this. However, it's possible that Hoody has "saved" Jay (and others) before, moving them away from where they were, I think.

Also, for all Hoody's insistence that Tim is a liar, he didn't seem to have any problem with Tim swatting away at Alex when he was tied to a chair and on the floor. He didn't act like Tim's enemy then or when he was 'rescuing' Tim either.

That moment when ALex is looking down the barrel of his own gun is priceless. I have a feeling TTA will have the missing audio in a vid sometime soon.

I hope not, we'd probably just hear Alex shitting his pants.

I personally don't think we're going to see anymore of the tape. I think Tim and Masky got sucked into the slendyverse and that is what screwed the tape up, not the dirt. I'm guessing that the next entry will consist of Jay questioning Tim about the tape, and possibly the gun, if that is in fact what was in Tim's pocket. Either that or TTA will make a move that sets up the next conflict.

This footage isn't from Tim's camera. This footage never went through the Slendyverse (as far as we know right now). But we DO know it didn't go through (if at all) when Tim when through.

I know, what I'm saying is that I think Masky and Tim where pulled into the slendyverse during this entry before they could kill Alex, therefore Masky's camera would have been pulled in with him. Although I admit I'm only speculating on the whole sledyverse thing based off of the auditory distortion and the short clip of Hoody with the gun in the forest. I'm beginning to think that is where people go when they vanish or, temporarily, when they teleport.

I'm confused how there's any indication whatsoever that Tim/Masky (same person btw) were pulled into the Slendyverse in this entry.

Opps, meant Hoody. Anyway, yeah you're right, there is no specific evidence that they went into the slendyverse, complete speculation on my part. I'm just basing it off of the the sounds that are heard when the camera cuts out, and the weird grayish stuff that flashes, they seem very similar to the quality of the footage in the slendyverse entry. Plus I'm just thinking that that is where people go when they vanish or teleport, and that the footage just doesn't usually survive the journey.
On the first viewing, right as the operator showed up I was thinking "oh shit he going to save Alex by teleporting Hoody and Tim away through slendyland" and the subsequent footage kind of cemented the idea in my head. So I know I'm going out on a limb, but that's just what I think happened. Makes sense to me.

I want to reiterate that any distortion, missing clips, and missing audio in this entry may or may not have been the doing of Hoody. OOG, yes, trosephim removed what they removed for a reason. But this is a damaged tape, and the missing information may be entirely unintentional on Hoody's part.

Rant warning

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I agree with pravado to an extent. I find it very ironic that users have devoted entire posts to criticize him for criticizing other users in his posts. And a lot of the users he's criticized have been guilty as charged. Mentioning a well established fact or theory as a possible new development is diluting this forum almost as badly as the bickering. I mean, it's one thing to forget something that happened a season or two ago. Having rewatched the series several times, I can say that I always come across something I missed, or something that takes on new meaning in the context of later videos. But the people JUST NOW suggesting that TO and Alex may be working together are extremely frustrating

People are saying it is now concrete. before TO just showed up and everyone ran, this time he showed up when Alex was about to die.

Exactly. People view me as a butthole for calling people out but it IS justified in most cases. People see me as hating the series when like someone pointed out once before, the ones that criticize it the most are generally the ones that have the most passion for the series as a whole. I don't want to be the reason people leave this forum, but I also don't want to watch people keep posting theories that have either been proven false already, or have been proven true months ago.

It's not my fault that you guys don't have as high expectations for these entries as me. I've been watching since entry 5 and have devoted years to this series, watched the entire series about 5-6 times to date, and hosted a few synchtube sessions. I want every entry to surpass the last. When things don't improve for months at a time I have a right to voice my complaints. It doesn't mean I think they're completely incapable of making good entries anymore. I want them to strive to make these entries better and better, not just settle for moving the plot along an inch at a time cause the average fan thinks the entries are fine. Once it's over it's over, and there's no "remaking" entries, and so I hope each one they put out will wow me.

It's cool to be passionate about something you love and praise it. But don't get mad when it doesn't live up to expectations of people who are arguably more passionate about it than you. The good entries prove they're capable of reaching my expectations. Don't assume that when someone says something could use work that they mean it would have been better if nothing came out at all. Don't assume that I have constant criticisms that I think Marble Hornets should I personally think season 2 as a whole was far better than season 3 so far, and that loss in quality is a critical thing when we're in the final season. The plot has been moving entirely too slow, and plot points have been repeating themselves. If you don't see a problem with that then that's fine, your expectations for the series aren't as high as mine. If you disagree with me that's fine too, but you can't realistically get upset at me responding to people who are calling me out.

You guys are the one who derail the threads, or at least contribute to it. I usually give my two cents and leave it at that, and then 3-4+ people call me out on hating things, and then everyone calls me an asshole for defending my opinions, derailing things further.

People are saying it is now concrete. before TO just showed up and everyone ran, this time he showed up when Alex was about to die.

But he did that in entry 45 too. He was in a life threatening situation and TO came to the rescue. You can't say it's proven true because it's the second time this happened. The first time was the confirmation. Otherwise there would have to be infinite tests to prove it falsifiable. Karl Popper, anyone?

The same thing with Tim's backstory I'm constantly seeing. People were saying it wasn't confirmed Tim was a patient there until he admitted it last entry. But we had that confirmation in entry 60.5 when Jay showed us the papers. Same thing with Hoody/Tim hating Alex, entry 45 more than proved that. This entry didn't confirm anything for me, as everything they've "confirmed" was inferred before by using context clues.

One of my main beefs is inconsistency with distortions. The teleportation tear has not happened for a while when it should, and it seems like they only remove audio when it's convenient for filming purposes. For example, when hoody was sneaking up on alex, all audio was removed, even though you could tell whoever was playing hoody was making a lot of noise and alex should have been able to hear it. Just because you can remove the audio and pass it off as an operator distortion or a dirty tape distortion doesn't mean it's the best solution.

I fully appreciate all the work they put into the series. I just think they're capable of spending more time on the entries and scripts and really fleshing them out.

As someone who constantly bitches at me for complaints, when I make a genuine response to my criticisms and you troll me, it doesn't help things. Just saying.
