Would 8:10 have anything to do with height?

Possible, but it looks more like a time than a height. After all, height's more likely to be 8'10

I MAY have something, maybe not. you decide:


Ezekiel 8:10

8He said to me, "Son of man, now dig into the wall." So I dug into the wall and saw a doorway there.
9 And he said to me, "Go in and see the wicked and detestable things they are doing here." 10 So I went in and looked, and I saw portrayed all over the walls all kinds of crawling things and detestable animals and all the idols of the house of Israel.

(it may explain what SM does with his victims. Takes them beyond the "door")


Luke 8:10

8Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown."
When he said this, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
9His disciples asked him what this parable meant. 10He said, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that,
" 'though seeing, they may not see;
though hearing, they may not understand.'


(maybe in reference to totheark's strange audio and videos)

ANy thoughts?

I was thoroughly creeped out by it, until I suddenly had a flashback to Bruce Almighty, Jim Carrey raising his hand up and saying to Jennifer Anniston, "LET THOSE WITH EARS HEAR."


Then I started laughing. :,)

That sounds....Plausible

BTW, does anybody know how I can lure a corn snake out from behind a wall without a dead mouse?

Umm. Any meat product that isn't frozen, or, just use a pair of large needle-nose pliers.

Hey guys, new here! First ARG, as well, so bare with me if I don't make any sense Smile

I've been lurking this one for a bit, and I think that the answers to this are in totheark's videos, not J's. I mean J's only contain the sightings and some distorted audio, whereas totheark's contain some codes and missing audio. Not a very big help, but if we can completely decode them, maybe it'll be useful?

Also, in one of his videos, there's a frame that says "WHERE IS THE ARK". I think he either might be referring to a reference in the bible, or maybe a physical location for some reason? Or maybe, he's making reference to Alex (has been proposed before). Alex, in my belief, is almost certainly "the ark". "totheark" maybe means that whoever is posting the videos is addressing them to Alex, or maybe he's stating his "destination" (he wants to get to Alex).

And as to the 8:10 video, I think it's just someone trying to mess with people, trying to ruin the game. But right now we're begging for clues, so I don't know.

Anyways, sorry if all this seemed obvious and I know that some, if not all of my theories have been proposed, but I felt like posting them anyways.

Good thoughts. I'm more inclined to believe that it is simply segmented, that either Alex self-edited the tapes in his fear, or the other theory that somehow the presence of SM damages the tapes is a cause. It's very very likely that all of the missing clues we need come from totheark's tapes, whether they are pieces of missing data from Alex's tapes or they are his own.

I'm going to think it's a bit more cryptic than even that. Sure, it could be a symbolic or real destination, but I am more inclined to believe from his activities that somehow totheark is scarred - either being an SM type himself, or someone afflicted by one at some point in time that wants to warn or show the truth to others, but for some reason cannot exactly.

I would agree. The videos don't just fit - yet. However, the authors could be trying to fit different "personalities" in. I just hope they don't stuff too much in there.

Don't worry, I'm new too and hopped in feet-first.

Alright, you new guys.

We don't mind having you around, but SERIOUSLY, read the whole Trailhead thread before making your own theories, because most of what I'm seeing has already been discussed at length.

It's long, but it's worth it.l

I don't know if this has anything to do with the ARG, but when it says "Where is the ark?" it might be refering to where this thing is. Also the things that gordon_ramsay has dug up might refer to Slendermans "hideout".
It might be in the building since we haven't seen the symbol else where.

Again, for you "totheark is Alex" fans, I bring up the physiological impossiblities that are Entry 13 and the Exit video.

Alex needs batteries. J goes to get them. SOMEHOW ALEX RUNS THROUGH THE FOREST WITHOUT BEING SEEN, WAITS IN HIDING FOR ALEX TO ARRIVES, FILMS HIM, THEN RUNS AWAY AGAIN, ENDING UP DEEPER INTO THE FOREST THEN HE PREVIOUSLY WAS, ALL WITHOUT J BEING THE WISER?

It isn't plausible. Sorry.

Dav Wrote: We have no idea what the layout of the forest is. We don't know if the house where he saw Mr. Thin was way deep or just off to the side a little. We also don't know where they start--I kinda got the impression that they were somewhat close to the entrance to the forest at the time of splitting up, which may or may not have been the case. Point is: without knowing the layout of the forest in which they were, we can't say how plausible/implausible Alex having filmed Exit is. One thing that cannot be discounted is the fact that something was excised from Entry 13. It's a lot more likely that there was only ever one filmatographer than there being two.


We can guess the layout of the forest a bit easier now, thanks to BluShoe77. Whether in game or not, it shows the plausibility of Alex filming J. This diagram may not be exact, but it gives a good idea of how things may be arranged.

I think that totheark being Alex is pretty implausible, and I'm basing all of this off of the Exit video/Entry 13. I mean, a couple of different implications occur.

Alex tells J he needs batteries. A couple of different things here. I mean, it's possible that Alex at this point was little rattled by this whole thing, so he simply forgot, and wants J to go fetch them while he takes a look around.

The video cuts out at this point, so it's possible that Alex could've taped him, maybe on a different tape or whatever. I don't like that theory, because then where the hell did J go? He's probably back at that point, and he's obviously nowhere near Alex. Besides, would Alex simply keep some tapes in a secret stash? It seems pretty obvious that Alex wanted nothing more with all this. I doubt he'd be going "OK, you take all these tapes. I'm gonna keep these select few."

I'm honestly starting to think that Alex may have been so paranoid at that point to work with somebody else to video tape J going to the car. What for, I have no idea. Maybe he thought this whole thing was a prank at first, and wanted to be sure J wasn't in on it? I mean, the video starts out, centered on the car. I'm sure they were expecting J to come back.

Of course, again, there's the whole "Where the hell is everybody else" thing. I mean, wouldn't Alex be seriously out of breath from all the running? I'm sure J would've noticed something.

I don't know. I get the feeling everybody's being shifty.

New here, like so many others. I just read all 71 pages of this,m and most of the other threads. Something just popped into my head that I haven't heard brought up yet. I'm not sure I even believe it myself, but it's worth noting...

What if totheark is meant to be misleading?

Noah's Ark was meant to be a safe haven, a way of saving animals from harm. What if totheark is trying to save all of us by leading us away from the answer? Obviously SM was pretty harmful to Alex -- at bare minimum it took a severe toll on his sanity, if you don't believe SM caused the damage in Entry 15. J has been getting sick and experiencing both blackouts and lost time simply from viewing this footage. Tim becomes nervous and fidgety when SM is brought up even in a vague sense, and so far as we know, Brian may be dead. Perhaps totheark is trying to "help" us in his eyes by throwing us off the trail so that we don't go too far down the rabbit hole, so to speak.

Again, I'm not sure I believe it myself, but it could explain the lack of headway made in the game... just something to ponder

My apologies if this makes no sense -- I think it's coherent, but I am very, very tired.

To the ark... the ark being anywhere that ISN'T near SM. Possibly to lead people away from the building in the 8:10 clip, if that's a possible "portal" to where SM takes his victims? Hmmm. It does seem a bit of a jump but it's entirely possible I guess...

Sorry to be rude, but if you can read a 71-page thread, I'm sure you can read my sentence:

"Anyways, sorry if all this seemed obvious and I know that some, if not all of my theories have been proposed, but I felt like posting them anyways."
