The one thing I'm really interested to see is what happens to the remaining two people on the list -- assuming JA and LR are Josh and Logan respectively; and that HIM is Slenderman; zygotesix, msheadwound, Dav, and tetsuyahbh are only 4 of the remaining 6. If those question marks on the "Found. You." entry do refer to players, they're presumably not going to be getting pages out of the notebook (unless BH is hiding something from us! ).

Logan seems to really be stressing the importance of a certain number of people (or, uh, extra-dimensional beings) in this notebook, so: do we have any theories about if/how they will be contacted or play into the story?

Scanned Notebook

[chaos]

[zygotesix]

I disappear for a weekend and miss everything. Great.

At least now we have a fairly complete set of mailings - we need to start comparing. If there are images in the thread of all the pages we got (I need to go check, I'm lazy) plus BH's scans of the book, I can photoshop it into one long image so we can compare easily...

one thing I was thinking watching the video is there might not be a running code through it like last time. I didn't notice anything specific, but I haven't seen the scans yet.

[dopeoplethink]

Ok, first thing I noticed watching the video: Nine worlds. After a quick search, I found Wikipedia had an article.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norse_cosmology

Just another reference to the Norse Mythos, but no real clues as to how it ties in with the people that received or are included within this .

Btw: Logan Renault! Is he a car? =O

[chaos]

which video?

[kevrock]

I found a little hidden SM stickman on the last page of the notebook. I had to tweak the colors in GIMP since its really hard to see the black on black. It looks like (IMHO) he's kinda peeking up around the corner and reaching out at us w/ his arms!

[kevrock]

I transcribed all the text from notebook, including descriptions of drawings and my observations of implied meanings. Please make corrections where needed.

[My observations in brackets; all other text appears as-is]

#p0

[All handwriting in book in black ink; caps and punctuation have been typed as written unless noted; text on R page unless noted]

Today is a good day.

Today is not?

The sun hasn't risen or fallen in days.
Weeks.

I can't help but think that me
somehow losing track of time is far
more likely then the sun slowing
in its orbit.

But if we are all slowly spiraling
towards that brilliant star, than this
is all ultimately useless anyway.

Oct 1, 4:42 PM
[Note that all dates and times appear in lower right hand corner unless specified]

[Author implies he has lost perception of time; Arrow with question mark may mean he doubts the date; Arrow with "Solution" may mean that keeping track of the date and time is his solution to alleviate his imperception of it passing]

I was hit by a car this morning.

I ran before he could even ask if
I was alright.

Why did I do that?

Oct 4; 8 AM

#p6
[Handwriting is stressed, but still controlled]

More importantly

WHY am I alright?

[WHY underlined; Appears to be a response to #p5]

#p7
[Handwriting is stressed, but still controlled]

I know where he came from

#p8
[Handwriting is neat, controlled]

So I have a theory.

A theory whose extent is just "not
from here"

Beyond that lies research and
experience.

When was the last time I slept?
I honestly have no idea if what
I'm writing makes sense.

hmm

this' probably gonna sounds wrong, but didn't logan say the notebook that his pal had and he has were the same, except for one had lined pages?

they seem different to me


seems legit though

heheh
logan's watch probabyl stopped
EDIT: an who has the notebook anyway?
kev or tetsu?

[msheadwound]

[ultraviolet]

Looks to me like the strange disjointed handwriting of "seven worlds" is actually the words being made out of the number 7, rotated at various angles.

[Six]

[Guest]

I honestly think that this and Marble Hornets are connected in a way other than including SM. The page about "eyes" and the "turn around" makes me even more certain of this. It reminds me of Entry #10, where Alex is running from Slender Man, but stops and turns around every few seconds.

[dopeoplethink]

I am one of the 9?
