Wow, okay. I was on this website a while back, for the whole Cloverfield deal, never registered but lurked for almost the duration, really enjoyed it. Jumping around the internet earlier led me back to the site, and I figured I'd hop around for a minute and see what was going on, and I stumbled onto Marble Hornets. HOLY F*#&! I cannot even begin to explain this, I have spent the last ten hours, I have read the ENTIRE Trailhead from start to finish, 340 some pages, so that I could get completely caught up and hop into the discussion. It is now 7:20 am here, I basically have had to scotch tape my eyes open and I don't care one bit. This is some sort of amazing! And if the creators of Marble Hornets ever peruse this forum, let me say congratulations! More than once through the course of these videos, you have made a 21 year old college guy full of piss and vinegar shake in his boots. I'm not afraid to turn the light off, but I certainly prefer it on HAHA!

I must preface all of this by saying I have little to no expertise, be it in A/V analysis, fancy code deciphering or otherwise, so anyone holding out any hopes that I will crack this thing open, go ahead and stow those away. But, I do feel like I've got a sharp mind for the theoretical part of this, and I was able to forecast a couple of the things that went on over the course of this so far. I will be on here as frequently as possible, trying to contribute any insights that I can, and I hope that I can help the group here in some way, shape or form. I know it seems to be frowned upon here, but I am going to double post, I wanted to introduce myself to everyone, and then in this next one I will theorize a little. Look forward to getting to know you guys and figuring out some of this nonsense!

Okay, I don't have all that much I feel like mentioning, for those of you that have been participating from the start, you'd be stunned by how much information is in that 340 pages. But, there are a couple things I'd like to touch on.

1. Sarah

As it is pretty clear (and was mentioned a few times) this is not a high budget thing, they need to make due with what they have. To me, this means that there are NO minor characters here. Considering that the camera man, whom we can now safely call Seth, is confirmed to be an essential part of this story, literally every character in every video across the entire hour or so of footage is important right now...except Sarah. This leads me to believe one of two things. Either a) We aren't quite as far along in this story as we think. I'm fairly certain we're closer to the end than the beginning, but there could still be some substantial plot to be uncovered. Or b) She is already involved in ways that we have yet to decipher. I know that there was some theory that she was in the house during the attack video aka the introduction of EFG/Masky. (Forgive me for not knowing entry numbers, I've watched the entire epic over the last night, it's running together.) I was in that camp at the time but it appears to be mostly if not entirely debunked by now. It just doesn't seem to fall in line with the rest of the series that a single character would mean nothing to the story. Being that she is the only character we don't know anything about, I think we need to dig deeper there, maybe someone PM J on YouTube and see if he knows anything about her whereabouts.

2. J has never CONCLUSIVELY captured Slender Man on film.

I know every video that comes out, someone insists that some tree or shadow is Slender Man. However, the only times he has been clearly and distinctly on video so far is when Alex has been shooting, with the exception being The Return I believe, the one that is an unknown filmer, presumably but not 100% necessarily Masky, shooting footage of a comatose J, followed by Slender Man walking towards the camera. Based on that pretty clear pattern, what's to say that Alex isn't shooting that video as well, which would in turn probably make him Masky. Early in the trailhead, there was a long held theory that Alex was the only one that could see Slender Man. With SM's ability to manipulate electronic devices, is it not then in turn possible, that instead of being the only one able to SEE Slender Man, Alex is the only one able to capture him on video? There were many contextual clues that SM was around during videos that J shot, why has he failed to capture him yet?

I personally don't have an answer or even a guess as to these two points, short of what I've postulated above, but it's just a pair of thinking points to get everyone's minds working, maybe trigger something from someone that hasn't been thought up yet, or at the least, get me involved in some discussion, even if it involves people shattering my theories and rebuking everything I've said. So, what do you all think?

I feel you on that, it was just a thought. I still think it may be worth note that the Slender Man has not revealed himself to J since the beginning of his torment, even though he is clearly still around. My theory about the camera was just that, a theory, but you've made some great points that pretty much put that idea to rest. Now the question becomes, if not for that reason, why hasn't J filmed SM yet.

Is she though?

[Hunter119]

It's really hard to say, cause they could simply be talking about Alex with their statements. The only one I don't get is "I hope he isn't angry with us..." as it seems out of place to say that when Alex seem's pretty chill.
