He said there was nothing eventful to report. So either the video will be terrible or there will be "lol wut, I didn't record that!" footage a-la Marble Hornets. I am hoping for the latter Cool

Edit: Or I guess just something subtle he "missed" for us to find, which would be cool too.

Haha yeah in my comment in his latest blog post, I basically hinted that there might be stuff we'll find he didn't see. I'm really hoping that's the case; a boring video with no new puzzles or, Lord forbid, answers on it would be a letdown. :/

It's up now! I haven't watched it yet.
EDIT: after watching it, I haven't had the chance to analyze it yet, but I didn't notice anything unusual. He goes to the switches, though he doesn't seem to be able to turn it? He sticks the camera in through a window, there might be something in the dark I can't see.
Also, possibly an OOG mistake, but Matt in this video seems to have the same shoes and legs as seen in the first tape. It doesn't look like an accident though.

This would support the thesis that Matt also made the first attic tape without remembering it. Maybe he should consult a doctor?

What I was thinking. Are we supposed to mention it to him?
And; what happened to the "friend" he said was going with him?

I'm sorry if anything is mentioned about this vid before I've posted this but I'm doing this as I watch the tape.
At around 18 seconds in, when he looks towards the brick(?) building, look in the door way, looks like someone pops out and heads back inside. I didn't really notice anything else that was weird.

I think that was grass close to the camera being in front of the door.

Edit: Yeah I didn't notice anything unusual, except there was thunder and a train at the beginning.

I guess it could have been grass. Just weird how it pops into view and seems to walk to the right of the doorway. If you do it frame by frame.

I think we should ask him whether it could have been him and whether he maybe has had memory problems.

I totally agree the shoes are the same. However they are Chuck Taylor's and very common ones at that, heck I have a pare somewhere. That said, the legs do look similar.

I also agree he didn't "accidentally" show us the legs. If he didn't want us to see them he could have easily edited them out.

Decided to send Matt another email.

Matt,

Just saw your newest video. No doubt that's the same building as the second tape from the Attic. I did notice something however, and kinda curious. The second tape from the attic shows the recorders shoes and legs at one point... I hate to say this, but it looked like you... when compared to the newest video.

Have you been experiencing blackouts? Maybe something in the house has cased you to video tape these previous tapes and you dont remember?

Tenshi

We'll see what he says.

ETA: Got a responce and realized I told him teh wrong tape. Not enough coffee to keep my brain functioning today. So I corrected my tape mistake. Next time I'll reread what I send better!

how the hell do those switches work anyhow?
Also, was totally thinking the whole same shoes and legs thing.
I was waiting for him to show that he was wearing converse.

I'm thinking, there are obviously places where things have been edited out, so I'm wondering if some of them were on purpose to keep the whole idea of him forgetting stuff going?
I'm probably wrong, but just a thought

Ok so the chat was going well and then things started getting odd the more we talked. But I did get a set of coordinates from him. BTW: The only editing I did was for spacing anything that was "code" or what have you has been left alone. But the breaks I shortened... even left my own spelling oopses LOL.

Matt Zesiger is Available
hello?

Me: Hello there!

mattzesiger: What were you saying in your last e-mail? I'm just having some connection problems

Me: The video that I saw the feet in, it was the first one, not the second one. I made an oopse.

mattzesiger: Oh. And what about the feet?

Me: The shoes looked the same as yours. I know they are Chuck Taylors and very common, heck I have a pair. But even the legs looked right. Have you been having black outs?

mattzesiger: No. The legs look similar? to what?

Me: To yours in the video you uploaded today.

mattzesiger: Hmmm.

Me: Same shape I should say as in the video they are wearing jeans and you wernt.

mattzesiger: what are you suggesting?

Me: Well that it was you. But if you didn't remember doing it... I dont know.

mattzesiger: How could it have been me. I found those tapes in the attic. The first time i had EVER been to the attic

Me: I know that's why it's insane. But I was kinda thinking about the tape you made in the attic and the time differance. Maybe ... no it's too frakken crazy.

mattzesiger: I see what you're implying. But it can't be true. I don't about the video I made in the attic still. Next week at some point I'm going back up with someone else to see what happens

Me: Yeah I know. It's the only thing that makes sense. But time traveling attic? I mean this isn't some cheesy movie. Make sure when you go up try the clock trick. So we can rule out things you know? Leaving a clock down stairs that's sinked with a clock you take.

mattzesiger: Yeah. We'll take all the precautions we can think of.

Me: Good! How are you holding up? Anymore crazy dreams?

mattzesiger: I'm allright if i've had any dreams lately... i can't remember them the one i posted about is the last dream i remember having

\\

.

Me: Well that's good, well maybe not good, but atleast better then more nightmares!

mattzesiger: I guess. sleeping and not dreaming is a very eerie sensation

\\\

..
Me: I can imagine. Have you notticed anything else odd? I know you're really good about posting the wierdness that happens, but anything odd stand out of late?

mattzesiger:

no\\\\

...
Me: Are your computer issues messing with your messenger? the \\\s and the like?

mattzesiger: the what?

Me: Your not seeing them? The \\\ and ...'s?

mattzesiger:

no\\\\\

....
Me: Um... ok cuz they seem to be counting up.

mattzesiger: I don't understand

/

,

Me: Well it was 2 and... never mind now it's 1. I think something is trying to communicate.

mattzesiger:

....

Me: Any odd tv issues?? Or other electrical devices acting up other then the Phone?

mattzesiger: no, nothing with the phone it hasn't rung in a while and I don't really watch that much televsion

//,,

Me: Humm have you tried using the phone?

mattzesiger: no. i mainly use my cell.

///

,,,

Me:The cell that posted that odd post.... Hurm Odd... took a look at the post. It's kinda the same thing I'm seeing here. May have to see if others have an idea of what it could be. Unless something is tryign to keep you from talking to us.

mattzesiger: 100%

Me: 100%?

mattzesiger: \\/.//,\

Me: Matt? Are you ok?

mattzesiger: yeah why?

Me: mattzesiger: \\/.//,\

That's why LOL

mattzesiger:

42o16'29.84nnnnn

72o24'54.41wwwww

well im pretty sleepy I think I'm going to go to bed

Me: I understand. I'll see if the oddness coming through this conversation means anything.... and let you know.

mattzesiger: Thanks Tenshi!

Me: Your welcome! And if you don't mind I may get some help on this.. may be abit beyond my abilites at the moment
mattzesiger:whatever you need to do night
