Okay, here's my analysis on this entry.

They've ran out of ideas.


Thats VERY likely. And I really hope that isnt the case. You guys remember the days when this room was buzzing with "holyshitwtf!" post after post after post, right?

My message to you, MH head honcho people "You're losing our interest!"

If we see a skull/eye socket/teeth, it could be that Jay's programmed (ala similar to hypnosis, using triggers) and that 'smile for death' set him off.

The yellow distortion sequence could have been some kind of... I don't know, transition of mental state. Ability to time warp. Retarded jumping-on-bed-wrong, whatever. Maybe some play with brain state changing 'abilities' (I hesitate to use that term for the sake of it sounding like super hero abilities D: ) is being expressed here, as in the ability to teleport is caused by a state of mind?

It seems like he is under someone's sway to me, maybe the tossing and turning is fighting it.

(Also, damn, no Slendy or Masky. XD I suppose it's good to keep the use of both sparing, but I likes them so~)

ubiquitous army marching music mentioned by After and JKatkina


DUDE. If the music is being piped in and caught by cameras, but maybe Jay can't hear it consciously, it could totally be to the tune of marching orders. "DANCE FOR US, PUPPET~!"

What the eff is he doing while he's gone, anyways?! >_O

Oh, bitch and moan some more. Sure as hell haven't lost my interest, and it seems like there are at least a couple others around these parts who are still eating this up. Come on, if all you've got to say is that, then let those of us who are still interested have our fun without you.

I meant the populace as a whole. Doesn't the fact that the amount of nightly views/immediate posts have gone down dramatically say anything to you?

Once again, an entry without instant gratification yields angry posts.

Calm down, it means...something. They've messed with this form of "teleportation" the past few entries, I think we'll see a HUGE step forward in the story soon. Whether or not it's a huge step forward for J is entirely up to the MH crew.

Hey, my quicktime doesn't work, can I get a frame-by-frame on the transition that happens on the TV at 2:40? (Note: the same thing that comes up on the screen is the same as the thing at 1:50. Goons have good eyes)

I think the talks of a "skull" in the TV are unfounded. Going back I tried to make out the same design pointed out by a previous poster. Given the low quality of the footage, the glare produced from the TV itself, and the fact that stereotypically the cryptic messages from ToTheArk have proven to be useless when analyzing MarbleHornets footage I'm going to have to disagree.

I'll offer a similarly unfounded explanation that the images on Jay's TV are actually real-time feeds from his home-made surveillance system. When the image changes, it could be similar to a security feed changing to show a different part of the area.

It's still interesting, but the last few entries, IMO, have been very over-the-top and have spammed the Movie Maker effects way too much. We haven't seen Slenderman without him being heavily distorted since Return. Every entry just keeps adding more bullshit with no explanation. The older entries were realistic, at least, but now we've gone from that to a portal to Slender-Narnia in Jay's door.

The reason it's the same thing is because the last bit of the video is supposed to be showing Jay exiting the room, but the door never opening on the other side. It's a split-screen showing the "teleportation" phenomena people are talking about.

No doubt back to Brian's pad. Very Happy In that case it would be a huge step forward for him, if you know what I mean.

True, but what IS it? It certainly looks like it's shaped like a human
And I wanna see the transition Sad

Damnit, now I want to see Slendy frolicking with a bunch of talking animals.

In discussing TTA's "Exit" response, teleportation was thrown around as a sort of joking, tongue-in-cheek explanation for how Alex could go from the Red Tower to the parking lot back to the Red Tower before Jay returned to the Tower-- assuming that Alex is TTA or a member of some group of people comprising TTA or whatever. Assuming the MH creators aren't just pulling it out of their asses and I'm not just speculating wildly (I am) that's a brilliant fucking link.

Teleportation as early as "Exit," maybe.
