Well, considering the "Damsel Job", it appears Slendy is a big fan of his reboots.


It makes one consider whatever happened to Damsel's family and Jeff's parents a wee bit more, I suppose.

Maybe Alex's "condition" isn't a your normal mental problem, but a Slendy side-effect of a reboot?

I don't think he called the one he was talking to "The Big Guy." I mean, you're right about the implication that "The Big Guy" is Slenderman but he says:

[quote=HABIT]SURPRISE, FOOLS! JUST DROPPING IN FOR A MOMENT TO CLEAR SOMETHING UP: YOU REALLY THINK THE BIG GUY AND SNOOPY TYPE THESE THEMSELVES? PFFT.

JUST ME AND THE BIG GUY, BUMPIN' SHOULDERS, YA' KNOW? YANKING CHAINS, RUBBIN' ELBOWS-[/quote]

Things that I take from it:
A) It implies that Slenderman isn't writing the normal caps phantom tweets, in the same way as how we suspected that the Rake was HABIT, which HABIT mockingly refutes in the above. Because of that, I would imagine that he's trying to infer that Slenderman is in no way connected to the tweets.

B) HABIT seems to be, as we noticed in the Ryan and the Seven Trials of HABIT video, to be trying to put himself on an equal footing with tall, dark and faceless, even on a friendly level. In the previous tweets, HABIT has been antagonistic towards the anonymous entity in an attempt to force it him/it to leave.

(fixed the tags)

Those tweets came during a period where we were indeed trying to figure out the logistics of Slenderman using twitter. A popular theory being tossed around was him outside Jeff's window while Jeff was asleep, his tendrils curling over the keyboard.

The Rake was an especially interesting case, people were developing crazy theories regarding how many computers were in Jeff and Alex's household, who could reasonably be expected to have been in the house during certain times, and the possibility that the Rake actually stole Vinnie's phone just for tweeting.

Habit's response to these theories was to say "Do you think they really typing them himself? Get real, bro," thus confirming the alternate theory, that the supernatural characters were possessing or otherwise influencing the human characters in order to make the hidden tweets.

Context~!

Actually if anything that quote proves the opposite. And I just got Ninja's on the first point. I was going to point out the word choice in "TYPES THESE THEMSELVES" and how it indicates they're not typing, but the words are theirs.

My other point, your B, is that HABIT could, and very well sounds to be, Sarcastic about the friendly thing. So the possibility of the Other Tweeter being a Slender-possessed person still stands.

Aw man. I love to talk(read: overthink) about the tweets. There is just so much intrigue there (Or not. It's probably just something that the PM's just glazed over and didn't really want to get to niity gritty with it. Mind you, not that I'm complaining. It's just a lot to consider)

If this turns into a book, I'm sorru.


Lets start with what we know for sure. HABIT is the CAPITOL LETTER TWEETER.

As far as the tweets go, that's probably it. I think there's a pretty strong consensus that the other tweeter is a Slender-possessed person. We also feel pretty strong that HABIT is possessing someone as well(and using that person to tweet and interact and what not), but there's enough wiggle room that HABIt could be a yet-unseen/or revealed/or whatever 3rd party.

For the time being, lets go with the theory that Slendy possessed someone and HABIT has been doing the same to someone(s)

All the unsigned tweets take place in hours and times that we can't really account for any of the guys(assuming they're the hosts), except for the tweets on Nov, 4. Around noon, the first twitter fight happened. I don't have access to the time stamp, but a short while later, Jeff tweeted that they just got done with a 3 hr car ride from Centralia. If memory serves, the twitter fight happened in that window. This presents some fun options.

1) Slendy and Habit fuck around for a little bit with the guys while they're driving. Possessing, erasing, all that jazz.

2a) One of the guys was possessed and was able to text/tweet while they were on the road while someone else tweeted back elsewhere(also possessed)

2b) Two of the guys were possessed and where tweet fighting while the 3rd was oblivious(driving?)

2c) One of them was possessed by both and was doing all the tweeting

3) The twitterfight was involving someone(s) else. Hi Alex


The only other time where we sorta have a way to place someone is on Nov 29th, when the last twitter fight and the last unsigned tweet(until the STOP WATCHING US one) happens. Jeff had taken our advice and subscribed to the EMH feed from his phone. I say sorta, because we can't 100% place Jeff because he might have been the/one of the possessed persons.

If we want to delve in the techinical aspects of it, since our favorite HABIT target is Evan, it gets interesting too. I had asked him in an email once about his phone, because I seem to remember him flashing it in one of the livestreams. It looked like a pretty "ancient" phone that wouldn't have any interwebs capabilities. He didn't provide a useful answer(one that dials). But I'm pretty sure it's not a smart phone in any way. I point this out because while one can text a tweet from anyphone, one definitely can't delete one via text. Not to presume that all the HABIT tweets were done via phone, but there's a good chance the nov 4 ones were.

Although I don't believe the PM's would have really worried about the logisitics of sending a tweet. "A Wizard Did it" would probably suffice, it'd be pretty awesome if they did go in this deep.

Shit. This is a book.

While all the stuff that's been happening the past while has been great, I do hope we get an actual video soon. I miss the videos. Just me though. Razz

But really EMH is far more than just Youtube now (waaaaay more than actually), so I can't really complain.

Sorry if that was a tad off topic. Embarassed

As an aside, we never got any commentary from the "STOP WATCHING US" tweet did we? As far as we know, the boys don't know about it.
