If you've got it right, Dray, then it either means "Game over brah" or "Slender Man sticks around here, come here and it's the end of you!".

Well if we're getting into thoughts on water, one's gotta wonder what the prevalence was of the painting of fire in Brian's house. Fire, water... Ooh. A thought.

Perhaps Slendy lives in water. Or not so much lives, but he's very much attracted to it, he might even need it to sustain himself. Slender Man does have a very liquid qualty about him, what with the slippy-ness and ability to expand himself. (Elasticity can be associated with water as an element.)

Water bottle in Masky's closetroom, waterplant, pipes, the creek at the tower, all things apparently associated with Slenderman. It would then be appropriate to think that Slenderman hates fire. Maybe while Tim was ill from the SlendySickness, he had that painting of fire and had an idea. Maybe he set fire to the waterplant that J was teleported into the other night. The damage to the place does kind of look fire-inflicted.

Maybe Tim was trying to get rid of Slendy once and for all, but failed.

I dunno, just methinks.

Aw, but the Operator symbol has been showing up since pretty early on on the show. I'd be surprised if it was intended as an "FU we're leaving"! What seems to be to be more important is the 'jump to' part. Maybe the symbol has something to do with the Slendy basement, and how one gets there.

I lol'd. Back to the water significance thing, are we? There's certainly a significance, obviously, but I don't think there's anything we can do to determine what that significance is.

I'm skeptical about the music thing. The coda is vertical and horizontal lines through a circle, not diagonal, like the operator symbol. Also, the S symbol in totheark's videos, unlike the music symbol, doesn't have a line through it, it's vertical like the letter S, and one side of it is always bigger. I'm thinking it's more of a funny coincidence.

Just thought of something else.

Maybe the operator symbol is a clue as to where Jay needs to go next.
If you go back and watch entry #11 again, you can see a drawing of slendy where the (x) is his face. Now, maybe this is a clue that Jay needs to return to the places that Alex has seen slendy in the videos. Specifically the alley in #7 where the potential DS al Coda sign was.

Also, the "return" definition of coda goes along with tothearks video "return." in which, slendy... well... returns.

Just some thoughts.

Oh, hey, I'm curious -- I think I missed something, being kind of new. Why has it been dubbed the 'operator symbol', anyways?

[Dray]

Oh wow, that's wild!

I'm not sure the symbol looks right, either, but it could have simply been shopped so that it doesn't look so obvious?

I'm really glad that you found that connection.... but maybe the symbol simply meant that Jay had to return to Brian's house? It's hovering around him, and around the house (supposedly) that Jay comes back to. So it could have been planted to lead us back to the house whatever else they had planned. It could be that we're only finding this out after the fact, and not that it points to something happening in the future.

Okay, third post in like 20 minutes here.

I think that the next place Jay needs to go back and check is the building in 13. Its already been said that it could potentially be place that entry 22 and 23 take place in.

Entry 13 was the first place that they make a point out of showing the operator symbol. It was subtle in all the other ones. Also, in entry 19.5, Jay makes a point of using that as the example of the operator symbol.

He needs to go back there and check that out.

Edit: also, in the introduction, Jay said that all the video's were missing timestamps.

So, if we were to assume that 13 and 10 take place in the same woods, and that those woods had the structure where entry 22 and 23 take place. Then maybe 10 takes place after 22. Alex is running away from the building, and he knows that slendy is following him.

[Dray]

Are you sure that he's running away? He seems to get closer to the building in 10, to me.

But it would make sense, if Alex is the only one there, that it happened after 22. It occurs with the same-looking footage, which could link 'em. Maybe he just filmed over top of 22 despite the fact that it happened before 10? :\ Hmm. That doesn't seem right to me.

going back over 22, yeah, it seems like Jay is going to have no better luck getting out of this by saying 'screw it, I'm backing off'. He needs to find out where Alex has gone if he wants to know what is going to happen to him now.

[almost_amazing]

Could entry #12 also be at that same location?
It's in a field in the woods, much like the building in 13.
Alex also seems to know exactly what slendy is going to do. He even goes so far as to say "it's okay, he'll move"

So, if the tapes are missing timestamps, its possible that 13 takes place before 12, and that they were location scouting for the scene they were shooting there.

Alright, I have to get to bed, so I didn't read all posts, but I'm going to throw out my theory.

1.Not endgame. TTA still has to make their move
2.As much as I like the idea of Masky being the children that Slenderman captured, it can't e true, as masky never appeared for Alex.
3.Therefore, Masky is relevant only to Jay.
4.Timetravel theory holds ground.
5.Masky could be Alex or Brain. After all, its Brain's house.
6.This is not really relevant to this video, but it is to #22. #22 was recent, without a doubt. How do I know, you ask? This is why:
1.#15, Jay interviews Tim
2.#22, Alex makes final video and says that "they" are all gone, Seth, Brain, Tim, Sarah.
3.Tim could not have gone missing and then give an interview to Jay without freaking out. Either that, or Slenderman wiped his mind and through him back

Also, referring to my #3, this, I believe, adds some support to the Masky being Alex thing. If he wants to burn the tapes, but already gave them to Jay, then he needs to get them back. Jay, having already watched the tapes, has not check on them in a while. Maybe if he checked, some or all would be missing. That might be why Masky's mask was hanging there, because Alex already achieved his purpose of getting the tapes back as Masky.
And for those of you who look at the above post and say, "What about the last tape, then?" I say to you this:
Maybe Slenderman likes to have fun and stole the tape, hiding it and leaving clues so that Jay would find it. Which would make him go back to the house. With Slendy.
And, also, for people who say, "Well, Alex moved away, why did he come all the way back?" I say to YOU this:
Some one was living in Brian's house, in the closet. Maybe it was Alex?

Anyway, I'm new to the whole ARG thing, first night even knowing about it. I just wanted to throw my theories out there. Thanks.

P.S. We might have to settle for waiting for TTA's response before we do anymore speculating. The are kinda stuck in the mud.
