Ooof, affair? I dunno, man, that'd be a stretch, even for these guys.

I know, right? Everyone knows Damsel and Jessa are the ones having the affair.

Maybe not so much an affair as a one-night mistake. It's my least favorite theory, but it seems at least somewhat plausible. I'm really hoping that it's something different, and that we find out very soon.

I'm still holding out hope for Damsel being revealed as an in-game gamejacker, but maybe that's just my pet theory. It would explain why Jeff was so very pissed--finding out that a potential ally was just making up stuff all along would do that. I'm not sure how that would get the cops involved, though.

And Mira's right, Damsel/Jessa is at least as likely as Damsel/Jeff.

Fix'd. ;-D

As seriously awesome as I found your theory to be, I took the time to reexamine everything after you initially posted it, and I don't think this will be the case, simply due to her own friendship with Jessa and the fact that Evan was originally the one who found her blog and subsequently "pointed" us all to it -- not to mention she was receiving coordinates and all that. I'm not saying it couldn't still be the case even considering all these things, but it doesn't seem likely at this point (from my perspective).

Still, that's totally something to keep tucked away for another ARG... a "gamejacker" later revealed to have been in-game all along, or sucked into a "real" Slender situation due to their folly. Gamechanging!

As long as Damsel and Jessa are not opposed to a third party member...*thumbs to himself*.

My argument there is that we would've gotten a hint of that if they had by now. Has anyone at any point noticed anything when mentioning Damsel that made Jeff look uneasy? Or Evan, if he knew about it?

I don't know, it just seems unlikely. And the in-game gamejacker would work if we weren't so far into it already. I mean, we've known about Damsel since, what, June? Early July? Usually you can pick up on someone being a gamejacker pretty early on. I'm thinking she's legit.

Of course she's not a gamejacker, and of course her and Jeff didn't have an affair. Both of those theories are just so far out there, there's no possible way they're the truth. Come on guys, quit looking so incredibly deep into it that you've crossed from weird into average explanations for real life. This is a Slenderman situation with guest appearances by The Rake, it isn't a soap opera.

I gotta agree with Joker on that. Boyfriend-girlfriend-mistress drama doesn't really suit a horror tale of this magnitude. Plus, I think Jeff's got enough to worry about as it is.

I know, some people couldn't be reaching any further at this point if they had tentacles for arms.

I'm on board with the above. Guys, cut it out with the epileptic trees already. there's no affair, and no gamejack.

Speaking of gamejacking, how should one identify a gamejacker, really? It's one of those things that appears to be fairly ambiguous, in terms of how individual gamejackers handle a gamejack.

I don't see anything that really indicates Damsel was ever a gamejacker, given how the first mention we get of her site is through Evan. She certainly doesn't start making references to acknowledging the guys until well into the series, when people continue to ask her. Seems inevitable if you have that many people asking you "Do you know these guys?" you'd look into it and probably contact them.

Most damningly, I could understand it being a gamejack if the first sighting of her blog was just Evan, and she decided to have some fun. But it's not. Even before Evan we have the shrine, indicating she's involved IG even though she doesn't know it. She's definitely connected.

I actually like the Wild Mass Guessing. Plant those seeds for Epilectic Trees my tropers!

It gives some entertainment be nice to mark off such things as WMG.

I like the WMGs too... but I can see how it would be annoying for people who use this thread for serious IG speculation. Maybe we could make a separate thread for WMGs?

Guys, I just had a breakthrough! Slender Man is actually EVAN'S FATHER!

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
This was a joke, in case you didn't catch that.


Edit: And Vagrant, the idea isn't that Damsel is an actual gamejacker, but an IG gamejacker... meaning that she's never had any contact with Slender Man and her whole backstory was made up. That doesn't make the theory any more plausible, but that's what everyone's been talking about.

But I thought...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Slenderman was an alternate reality version of Jeff that died in the school fire?


So that would make...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Jeff Evan's father?!?!
