Son of a damn it, that's what I get for not being through on this video. Very nice find, adds a whole additional level.

Wow, there's some really great stuff going on here. Heh, I've been thinking about the videos all day.

I completely agree w/ this; its the same w/ people reading malice into SM even though we have no indication IN GAME of this. For all we know, this could be some elaborate initiation ritual or contact from the 17th dimension.


Actually, I'd love to see this happen. For some reason, I have a crazy fondness for ridiculously sinister characters who are actually trying to help. I'd love Marble Hornets even more than I already do (which is really kind of hard to believe).

I'm beginning to think of TTA as kind of a skittish, child like character in mentality. In Addition he peeks around a corner and says "see you" and in this one he says "come back" as if he didn't mean to scare or freak out J but really wanted to tell him something.

Perhaps TTA learned "the truth" about SM and it drove him completely mad in the Lovecraftian sense, and now he's trying to get J to join him. J exited the situation and missed all of the goings on three years ago so now TTA is trying to reintroduce him to it.

Think about the titles of his replies;

Regards - Perhaps a greeting of some sort, a welcome back into the fold.
Operator - Indicating that TTA knows whats going on and can help connect and guide J to the truth.
Deluge - The initial flood of information from the last three years.
Impurity - TTA getting angry that J isn't catching on to his cryptic information, frustration at J's lack of focus, or that J' doesn't remember him because he's been tainted.
Exit - TTA trying to remind J who he is. Perhaps TTA and J knew each other however J no longer remembers in the same was he doesn't recall Entry 17.
Program / Advocate - TTA attempting to guide J to the goal, which leads to the next reply.
Addition - TTA welcoming J as another "Addition" to those who are involved with SM.
Signal - TTA sending a signal or message to J that they need to meet and that J needs to come back to the house to learn the secrets TTA knows.

Some of these are a bit of a stretch but I believe that TTA is trying to communicate with J in his own deranged way.


...Wow. I never could have said it better than that. There does seem to be a weird, twisted kind of friendliness behind TTA, doesn't there?

For some reason, I always imagined "Come Back" as a sort of plea. I dunno, but it does seem to work somehow.

This should have a really, REALLY good conclusion. Else I'm going to find the filmmakers, dress up as slender man, and start stalking them at night.

Nah, I jest, but I couldn't help thinking about some sort of funny as hell, but really lame ending, like, J's friends and SM were just planning the most elaborate birthday party of the century, and when he comes back to the house, there are like, cake dancers and the like, and slender man waving his tentacles about.

It would be HORRIBLE, but at least we'd be laughing our asses off.

Awesome work on Find Me. Some of the less cryptic videos are easy to look past, particularly when it seems this is just a story playing out. Great fricken work, and creepy!

I am seriously biting at the bit for Entry 18. It can NOT come fast enough.

Perhaps a reference to all the windows Slender Man peers through.


Oh sh!t - I just realized this from what I wrote in the SM image post:

**Watch #17 again - the window is OPEN behind Tim the entire time!**

Also, note how the breeze doesn't start until he starts "acting", then it stops as soon as J enters the frame.

Hm. I just read this on YouTube in the comments on Signal. Not sure if the guy is pulling our collective leg or not, but it might be a definite confirmation on...well, something we already pretty much all agree on.

I'm pretty sure SM doesn't particularly care for it, but, you know, maybe he likes enemas, or something.


Kind of a pity the creators don't talk with their viewers anymore.

Yeah, it would be nice for a LITTLE interaction every once and a while, eh?

What if "find me" plays into this whole thing where TTA is trying to guide J to some goal? So far, it seems like we have two angles- malevolent and skittish. "Come back, find me" could be perceived as a taunt, or a plea. What if they're not connected, though? Let's not forget "WHEREIS THEARK". Maybe the house contains the only clue to the whereabouts of the ark- something Alex/Brian/someone found.

Of course, if you string it all together, "Come back, find me, again" along with "remember me", well... maybe there's someone J's forgotten.

I dunno. Too many damn questions...

I noticed in entry #17 when slenderman moves tim moves as well, both in unison. Im starting to think Tim actually is connected to him in some way.

It makes sense that signal means to come back to the house mainly because TTA filmed J when he wasnt aware because TTA wasnt sure if he could trust J or maybe TTA was worried about his own safety at the time because slenderman could be near. It makes perfect sense so maybe we are at like the halfway point for the ARG or even the end. i assume TTA and J will team up in the next video(if J decides to go back) if he refuses TTA's request it may end the game.........

...
What if J went back to the house, opened the locked door, and SM was standing there, and as the camera focuses on him, we get Rick Roll'd?
