I believe the totheark videos are the most important things in the marble hornets case.

I believe all these questions can be answered with the phrase, "They're the the same person".

How did totheark get video footage of masky and with it being an EXCERPT of footage made by Alex?

How much more video footage does totheark have? Since that was just an EXCERPT from Alex's video footage.

Are these different parts from Alex's footage?
Or is all of Alex's footage that totheark has just look like that?

Why would Alex have video footage of masky behaving in such a manner?

Why does totheark have this footage?

Is their a connection between totheark and masky?
Or to totheark and Alex?
Or to masky and Alex?
Or any connection from someone to someone else?

How much of Alex's video footage was tampered with by totheark or anyone else for that matter?

Ressurecting this thread, due to a recent arguement I was having with my better half that resulted in a possible interpretation.

Alright, this thread has been done to death about why masky/TTA would have each other's footage and all that. And assuming this is Alex in the mask, hell if I know how masky would get it. Probably the same way that Masky would get Alex's camera with the tape in it, assuming the theory about Masky planting the camera for the blonde to find is correct.

Now that I've gotten all that out of the way, time for the theory. This video is not meant to be a message to Jay. We've assumed that TTA is communicating with Jay, but all he's doing is affiliating himself with the Marble Hornets Youtube channel. Clearly, some messages are for Jay, but I digress. This responce is meant for Alex, clearly addressed to him in the form of "The following are raw footage excerpts from Alex Kralie." Now, if you're watching this from the sidelines, keeping an eye on Jay without getting yourself involved, seeing anything that claims its from you is going to grab your attention pretty quick.With Alex's attention, whether or not this is real footage from Alex, TTA goes on to bring images of Slenderman to mind via the doll. Followed by the message "Eyes (X)pen" informing Alex he needs to be more Wary, that perhaps things are beginning to shift back towards him. The message Stay Home is then shown in the eyes of a Masky style Mask. We are presently unaware of what Alex has been doing all this time. It is plausible to believe that Alex may have been watching Jay, or at least keeping tabs on his whereabouts. Obviously this would be a warning to stop that. This is then followed With some (blurry) masked figure. Then again a message is delivered through the eyes of the Mask, this time "Be Alone." Then crazy Slendydoll time, and the beginnings of the white board "Outbreak" demonstration. At that time all the circles are not X'ed. Possibly representing a new group of people Alex has involved himself with, implying that he has not yet infected anyone else. Then a closeup of Masky, with his eyes darting all over the place. I am most unsure about this part, however I believe this to be a representation of Jay searching for Alex. I'm not sure what relevence that would have, and it could be Slenderman is searching for Alex. Shown next is a scrawl of "Smile for the camera," Naturally it should be noted the S is the odd character that is being discussed elsewhere. This S has been associated with Tim and so I would draw from that the author for this video, if there is more than one person operating as TTA is Tim. This is quite the foreshadowing to the events of Entry #26, and may explain Alex's calm nature. Mayhap he'd understood enough of the message to expect a camera, although the method of delivery may have been a bit different than he'd expected. We return to the "outbreak" board, and see the X's spreading until the entire board is consumed. The next Masky is obviously Tim, unless someone else can instantly grow those sideburns, possibly implying that the first one was as well. But that is all regardless. This is eventually wrapped up with Regards being scrawled on the whiteboard, quite sloppily. Tying in another hint that Alex is right back at the beginning (as Regards is the first TTA responce).

TL;DR Warning is actually directed to Alex warning him of the coming of a video camera and the re-emergence of slenderman into his life, and that of those around him, by Tim.

This could also imply that there are multiple Masky's and that they are not all united in their actions.

144,000: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/144000_(number)

72: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/72_(number)

For the linkophobic:

144,000 is apparently the number of servants chosen by God, number of those who will enter heaven according to some Christian sects, the number of prophets according to Islam, and it also represents the Baktun cycle of the Mayan calendar (which is the basis of the whole 'world will end in 2012' thing; that's when this Baktun cycle ends).

72 is the number of disciples that Confucius had, and that Jesus sent forth, the number of names that God had, the number of devils according to the Lesser key of Solomon, and it also has some significance in Taoism and Egyptian mythology.


This 144,000 servants is strongly related to Jhwh's witnesses...


Slenderman is a Jehovah's witness. That's why he's stalking Alex, he has some pamphlets to give him Smile

... really irrelevant and late, but had to go there.

Possible pattern

So I was watching all the TTA videos due to boredom, and I may have noticed a slight pattern starting with Warning, that points towards events during the seven months of J's blackout.

In Warning, TTA copy's the Introduction video, saying that the following clips are from Alex, then goes on and says "Stay Home" and "Be Alone".
It then ends with a possible reference to past TTA entry "Regards"

The just over a month later, J's channel is hacked, and Entry ###### is posted, which informs J: "We will wait for you no more. Control is being taken away from you. From the start this has been a game to us. Not anymore. I'm coming for you. And you will lead me to the ark".

So on there own it seems like 2 completely different sides of TTA (of course that is if Entry ###### is from TTA, but thats a different topic), but when you add Entry #36 to the mix, a patter kind of emerges.

In #36, Alex and J meet in a parking lot and discuss what has just happened with Tim/Masky. After which Alex goes to leave and J asks him What he should do while waiting for Alex to call him, Alex tell him to lay low, Which J doesn't seem to pleased about.

So in "Warning" TTA says "Alex" is warning J to "stay home" and "be alone", then in 36, Alex tells J to "lay low" while he waits for his call. Then in Entry ######, J is told "control is being taken away form you", and "you will lead to the ark."
Now look at what happens in Entry's 35 and 36, Alex shows up (Without J's knowledge at first, as shown in 36) and he takes out Masky, who is then revealed as Tim, making it the first time the 3 of them have been together since filming MH. Now in Entry 36, ALex tells J what to do while they split up.

So in entry 36, two TTA videos were made to look less like treats towards J, and more like Warnings,; Alex (like TTA posted) tells J to Stay home and be alone, and followed by the fact it seems he used J's videos to find Masky (probably not TTA, but still) and then took control of the situation telling J what to do next. Not to mention after Warning, Regards is mentioned, and the message of that post was look closely, and having done so, you can almost see a pattern of TTA warning J about Alex.

Now I know that this is a long shot, but its still pretty interesting how things are starting to pan out with the new season.

EDIT: I forgot to also include from "Warning" EYES OPEN, which when you look at the reference to "Regards" says Eyes open, look closely.

That's a really interesting interpretation. Usually I go for simpler theories, but this has a pretty intriguing ring to it.

So, I just got into this whole rigamaroll via a friend of mine and so I'm a little behind on the times. (I'm working my way through, but I refuse to watch these at night anymore!) Very Happy

That being said for some reason this video sticks with me a bit -- all of the capitalized letters.

I haven't been able to crack anything yet but when you take them all, you can come up with three names of characters: Alex (the X coming from the X that goes through the operator symbol that flashes), Sarah, and Seth. This leaves a buncha useless consonants so I don't think it means anything but I still thought it weird, and therefore cool.

From what I've skimmed here no one's really come up with the meaning to the anagram. Did I just miss it somewhere?

I know that Tim will be revealed to be the masked character, (damned spoilers!) but even before that I had a feeling it was him. When you watch the videos in succession, the similarities are much more apparent. In this sense, it's kind of a good thing to be behind the times, because I think watching them in groups makes things easier to decode.

Damn, this is an old thread. I thought it was Memories and kept wondering how it advanced nine pages in just an hour. YOU CONFUSED ME.

At 0:36, it looks like a different mask, but not skully's either. Did anyone else catch this? sorry if I missed discussion browsing through.

Alright, I'm not sure if this has been posted, but given the general believes on this forum I don't think it has.

Is it just me, or are two different people wearing the Mask.

When Masky first appears at 0:19, no noticeable sideburns. At least that I can tell.

Especially when compared to 0:35 where it's obviously Tim.

I didn't read through the entirety of this thread, but has no one noticed this before, or am I just seeing things?

Your right. I noticed a difference in the sidebirns firsy, but that also looks like a different mask to me. The "eyebrows" are different.

As I have said before, there are so many effects applied to this video, of course they're going to look different.

Take a clean image of anyone, especially a mask, apply stretching bloom/blur effects to it. It will look different.

Okay, what about the two different people?

I can't see sideburns on the first person, but I can see them easily on the second.

Is my mind playing tricks on me?

It's so depressing that Tim couldn't break those ropes.
