Long time lurker, first time poster. Been thinking about those numbers all night, 35:77//47, I also noticed what it pulled up on google as mentioned several posts above; however, I don't really think it fits.

Philosophical Transactions by the Royal Society is a journal in England, kinda like the New England Journal of Medicine is here in the states. It doesn't really have anything to do with philosophy at all. As for the exact journal entry, it is talking about an experiment on the earths magnetism. From what I can gather the experimenter was riding around on a boat and then taking magnetic measurements (of due north?).

Anyway there are literally hundreds of different number combinations on the pages before and after the one google picks out for you so I really doubt this is the answer. I'm still trying to think of what it might mean but I have a feeling we haven't been given all the information. This is what I have so far:

1) // means - in old english
2) : is the same as division in math also used in ratios so 35:77 can be simplified to 5:11
3) 35 is biprime meaning multiplied by two primes 5 and 7
4) 77 is also bimprime 7 and 11
5) 47 is true prime
6) It doesn't seem like it is anything from a bible passage because most books don't have 35 chapters or 77 verses

The biggest question I have is who sent the message; if we believe it is TTA then maybe the numbers have something to do with his posts...

hope this might spark some inspiration

Hmm...I don't think it means anything. Mathematically at least.

I've tried look for a numerical sequence in both numbers, and I've tried all kinds of mathematical interpretations of the":" and "//" from a square-root to addition, but I got nothing. The only significance I think this might have (Besides the 4/18/10 data) is something from a holy book or other significant text.

Has anyone tried the Qur'an? There might be a passage in there...maybe...

Obviously I'm going to GET WHAT I WANT. (Whether or not that happens to be shoes is still up for grabs. ;P)

As for the numbers at the top of the phone... Why DOESN'T Jay try to phone or text 'em back, or try to look up more info on them? Seems like it'd make a lot of sense.

I doubt that we'll see much between now and the date given, though perhaps Jay will tweet a little more often as the date draws near. Maybe just me, but I'd be a little nervous about an approaching day and blab about it. >_>

Argh, endgame. The troll is right... I will thoroughly miss this series. XD

well, if you look at the way storylines played out for other people in slenderman related stories, i think jay has merely been a way to show everyone deep inside the rabbit hole what each of them went through. i'm sure we knew jay as a friend, he would seem like he was going crazy.

almost all other character's i've seen have at some point left their houses in search of a new place to stay safe. shortly afterwards their home is destroyed in some way. and then soon after that, kerput, they're killed. (just like in "Just Another Fool")

In that case, I very much want to know why that hasn't been the case for Masky/TTA. And I hope that we're not left with Jay 'going missing'. I don't need to see bodies hanging from trees, but it would be very nice to see some kind of show down.

I STILL hope that he survives. XD That hope is very tiny, but it is still there. (Of course, if I was planning on killing off a character, I would milk that for all it was worth by making him have connections with people and then cackling evilly as they tried madly to fix things, slowly stripping away options until they were left with the stark realization that everything the players were doing to help was only making things worse...)

You know, this has bothered me for a really long time. If I were Jay I probably would have sent TTA a Youtube Message being all WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT after like the third or fourth video. Neutral

That would be fantastic, wouldn't it? Maybe J messaged him over at youtube and didn't share the results with us? :\ Still, worth suggesting!

After checking the new update, I did my own research and looked the numbers up in the Quran and posted my results in the "Jay's Text" thread, checked in here and saw you asked about the Quran. I'll paste here what I wrote there:

Quote:

A quick search in google of 35:77//47 took me to a video on youtube of a recitation of verses 35-77 of the Quran.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yv0NlCHdzuI

Now, in the description of the video it says:

"A recitation by sheikh Mashari Al Afasy of the verses 35-77 of Surat Al-Furqan (The Criterion) (Surah 25 of the Holy Quran)."


A second google search resulted in this page:

http://beta.globalquran.com/25

Scroll to the very bottom and you get 25:77 which reads:

"My Lord pays attention to you only because of your invocation to Him. But now you have indeed denied (Him). So the torment will be yours for ever."

EDIT:

25:47 reads:

"And it is He who makes the night a covering for you, and the sleep repose, and makes the day Nushur (i.e. getting up and going about here and there for daily work, etc. after one's sleep at night or like resurrection after one's death)."


I dunno, it's probably a long shot that these passages have anything to do with this, but it's still interesting nonetheless!

Truth be told, Jay should have called the police as SOON as he was attacked by Masky. The fact that he didn't call the police after Masky BROKE INTO HIS HOUSE makes me want to knock some sense back into Jay.
