 		You just put down the dots/dashes, it translates. Literally doesn't get simpler than that.

Check above. I don't know if it means anything. I really have no clue. But if it is morse code, we may have found a way to read the words? Communicate? Something?

 		People already did them and they came to S O A.

But I had a thought, what if ... was EEE instead of S? Then it would be TTT and then ET. Ya, never mind.

I googled EEETTTET anyways, just for shits and giggles and found that pretty much the only thing that shows up is the "Still Searching" guitar tabs. Slendys trying to get healthy AND pick up the ladies. XDD

 		Well, we only have 3 of the 7 boxes, so it's guaranteed that the series will go on for a while long... I expect another "secret video" with a Morse code title to be uploaded eventually.

I don't know...

But the names are chosen...

... /- - -/. -

is very precise, not names that occur randomly.

 		Yep. So far, all it translates to is SOA, in that order. If more hidden videos are released, I am sure they will have morse code names as well.

We will have to wait until then to see what it will spell out.

 		To be honest, I'm hoping for a secret video of the missing time between the car wreck and waking up in the basement.

 		I can't wait for another secret video.
They'll eventually become a code to decipher most likely. I've been getting more interested in codes due to EMH.

 		I just introduced my friend to the Slenderman Mythos.
Her first words after viewing videos: "Is he some kind of messed up cousin of a dementor?"
And now all I can think of is Evan using a patronus on Slendy after discovering knives don't work either.

I would imagine how it would go down is like this:
Evan: Shit I forgot my knife
*searches pockets*
*find wand*
*uses patronus*

"Should've had my wand," Evan says as he spits up blood on the pavement.

So I have a couple of hectic days at work, and have to ignore the thread. I come back a few days latter and I see that you guys wrote something like thirty pages of awesome. Wow.

I wanted to comment on the whole "is Slendy evil" question. I always interpreted the Slender Man as being neither good nor evil. He is so alien is his thought patterns that his behavior simply cannot be categorized in such a simple and human-centric way.

It is not inconceivable that everything he does, the stalking, general creepiness and the occasional disemboweling is only his way of communicating.


The entrails in the garbage bags must mean "I want to take you guys out for a drink!"


The English-Slenderese dictionary project is not going well at all. Turns out you say 'noun' in Slenderese by impaling the person you are talking to on a oak tree. We lost a lot of linguists working that one out.

Quote:

In seriousness, though, I don't even know if the Slender Man even has thought patterns. I've always thought of it as more of just a basic instinct thing. I don't even know if we could even call him sentient, necessarily.


Interesting. I've always seen Slendy as intelligent but incapable of relating to humans. The way he prods and pokes his chosen victims (and occasionally disassembles them) makes me thing of someone running experiments and trying to figure out how humans work.

So, is he even sentient at all? Well, if we are thinking of the coin theory, if the Rake is not at all 'intelligent' would this not mean that Slendy was? I believe someone called slender justice, and said he was 'calculating', where as Rake was vengance, and 'had little forethought'? One of the things that I thought really conrasted the EMH slendy with the MH slendy was the sometimes subtle differences in behaviour. Like, in MH the slenderman would look in the windows and find a way in to the house, presumably to mess with Alex. This slenderman was in Evan's house, and stood in the doorway 'taunting' them. I'm sure I could think on this more, but the feeling I get from this slendy implies some sort of intelligence to me. Maybe not complex thought. Maybe nothing beyond the want to toy with victims, etc., but, still some sort of brain process.
Then again if slendy is so alien to us then i must be hella wrong. But regaurdless, I don't know that it matters to the game all that much right now.


From the moment I first stumbled upon MH and the original SA thread, my sense has been that Slendy is both sentient and EVIL. Malevolence just oozes from the early images in particular. I really don't see how he can be helpful, or neutral for that matter, in any way. However, he clearly does get off on the use of terror and psychic manipulation/damage en route to killing/making people go *poof*, so I wouldn't be surprised if he does things that on the surface seem helpful to toy with his targets and heighten their terror.

On a side note, was browsing the original SA thread and noticed this. Check out the police blotter about 1/3 of the way down the page. Obviously not related, but saw a certain name mentioned and my heart skipped a beat.... Shocked
