Yeah, out of game this is just another MarbleHornets vid, but the Twitter is IN game. If I saw a video like this, with one of my friends getting stalked, seeing all the interference, the thing in the pipe, the screaming and then my friend says that I'm "gone" in the same way that people that have disappeared are gone...

You know. I'd be a bit freaked out.

Curiously High

This is why I think it's the last tape within the set of Alex's tapes. If you think back to the beginning, when Jay found Alex, Alex stuffed all these tapes into a few plastic shopping bags, telling Jay that he wanted him to get rid of them. That he wanted to burn them. And then he left. Alex moved shortly thereafter. At the end of this tape, he's basically saying he's going to burn the tapes and move. I honestly think that "gone" means "not here," as in, "I just woke up somewhere unfamiliar, and nobody is here. They were around before I blacked out, but now they're gone."

Alex could have missed a tape while he was frantically filling the shopping bags, or the tape could have been taken within the past three years by anyone. It could have been taken by TTA while Jay was sleeping or out of it.

In any case, this is not recent. This is the last of the Alex/IG Marble Hornets set of tapes, and now we're moving on to Jay's story more fully, focusing on what's happening NOW, not 3 years ago.

How this tape got into the tower is a matter of questioning "who is TTA?" I've been a proponent of "TTA is Tim" for a while, but now that I think about it, who better to help lead Jay through this winding maze of crazy and terror than someone who has dealt with it, themselves? I'm starting to think Alex is TTA.

do you guys really think this is Alex and Seth >looking for< slender man? Why would they? Alex is scared shitless in the other entries, he doesnt have the balls to want to find SM.

What did Alex mean about going back to his home? Didn't he love around there all his life? Unless he just meant his house? Because that was Brians house, right?

What happened in this entry (and some interpretation):
- Seth and Alex are hunting SM (Alex goes on the offensive *after* being terrorized by SM)
- Alex finds two places with dried blood (why is it always dried?)
- Alex decides to leave (is he giving up, or does he realize they're in danger?)
- Seth gets caught by SM and Alex leaves him there
- Alex wakes up in the "white house" with the tape from Seth's camera, but not Seth's camera or Seth (how?)
- Alex feels isolated and claims his friends are all gone (they're not, but he thinks they are)
- Realizing he has no memory left other than the tapes, he decides to go home and burn the tapes (seems like a bad idea!)

Operator
Not sure that the word/symbol Operator refers to Seth. Alex had been scrawling the "Operator" word and symbol way before this entry, and discovered an operator symbol during the beginning of the MH shoot. Assuming this is the last tape Alex filmed (right before he locked himself up in his house), he doesn't have any reason to obsess over Seth.

Timeline
This entry definitely takes place right before Alex locks himself in his house and J takes the tapes away. Alex says he is "going back to his home" to burn the tapes; considering the tapes are with J, it's safe to say Entry 22 doesn't take place in present day.

Slender Man appearances
Slender man doesn't make an appearance in the first part of this entry...however, they seem to have chosen a location with a lot of lookalikes. Honestly, I'm impressed with the enormous number of "aaah, it's slenderman! oh wait, nevermind" scenes. These guys have an eye for horror. It gives the whole first part a creepy otherworldly vibe.

Why was Seth scouting with Alex?
Why would Seth go hang out with Alex after their blowup in Entry 9? Seth seems to hate Alex in that clip. Maybe Alex wanted to show Seth the truth by bringing him on a SM hunt. On that hunt, SM takes Seth out of the picture.

Did Brian suffer the same fate as Seth?
It's possible that Alex and Brian went SM hunting after the close encounter in Entry 7. Alex wanted to show Brian the truth, Brian gets taken, yet Alex has no footage of the event (Brian doesn't have a camera). Brian isn't in 17 or 20, and the guys have no idea where he is. Is it possible Brian has been gone since entry 7, but no one remembers?

Is everyone really gone?
Probably not (we've seen Tim and J recently), though it doesn't look good for Seth or Brian. After this entry (according to J), Alex was going out of his mind. He had isolated himself completely from everyone - if he thought everyone was gone, his isolation would have a reason. The order Alex says the names (and that weird stutter during "..Tim, and J..") seems to reflect how much we know about where each character is now. Seth and Brian are probably deranged/dead/etc. Tim and J are alive but disturbed. Sarah is off the radar but probably not harmed.
