Eh, it's no loss. The lack of proper use of the English language was an eyesore, anyway.

I'm not really concerned about the teleportation anymore. Whether it was a fluke or not, it's been noticed and debated over enough. If it was intentional, awesome job! If not, it'll be interesting to see what they do to explain (proper wording?) it away.

Right now I mostly just wonder how long we'll have to wait to get a new entry.

You guys, you guys! I finally caught up! I was on page 12 but I'm finally here in the present! I can't tell you how enriching it was to skim 21 pages of bitching back and forth about whether Masky TP'd Jay or Troy and Joseph derped out on hotel rooms and decided that, shruggles, no big deal guiz.

And The Operator's rage-quit totally made my day. 8D There's no sarcasm in this second paragraph. The first, maybe a little, this... ahhhh, ha ha hahaha.

Anyways, nice find about the door warping/OOG fuckup, folks. In regards to whether or not it has any bearing on the future of the series, I imagine that it will be more subtle now than in, say, #24 where they were hitting us over the head: (An entire entry devoted to, "look, Jay opens the door on one side and it doesn't open on the other! EGADS! KEYBOARD MASHING!") It adds to the canon of doors going where they shouldn't. People being connected from one chunk of space to another without being able to get there on their own. (Hence the Operator being named after a job in which one connects one signal to another. Just in 3D and with fleshbags. Tin cans with sausages.)

I'm a little incoherent from all of the reading, apologies. I'd imagine that after we get the next deluge of tapes from Jay (there were a lot -- I didn't see much analysis of what was found. Any thoughts on how many tapes there were and how many hours of Operator-y action that could entail?) out in Entry form, things will start to get tied together. I get the feeling that we've come to the end of Season 2, Act 1 and are heading into Act 2, in any case. Patience, things will come together.

Hopes: More TTA; more Tim as Tim and not as a scary (and/or derpy) Masked Meddler. More Jessica; subverting the 'your princess is in another castle' trope by saving JAY'S backside from trouble at some point! Some answers about Alex, regardless of whether or not he's alive. Neutral

I would really just like to get teasers about whether he got taken down for good or not!

Was there not also an external hard drive in the safe as well or did I misinterpret the entry? That could potentially have hundreds of hours of (probably) surveillance footage, could it not?

Someone mentioned this earlier, but in order for Jay to have watched all of Alex's tapes in season one, he would have needed a tape camera of his own to play them and upload them, right? So it's safe to assume Jay has one.

I was wondering if maybe they were Alex's, too. I think that if it was me, I'd have gone for those first just to make sure! Were the tapes labeled in any way? Jay seems (and perhaps this is just from his white-on-black bumpers on either side of footage) to be a little more conscious about keeping things in order than Alex seemed to be. That could help sway a guess in one direction or another!

I'm pretty sure J only specified that his chestcam records to HDD. His handheld could be either. My first thought was that the tapes were J's handheld and the EHD was his chestcam, though it could be just about anything obviously.

They do make specialized capture devices for DV tapes, but I've never seen someone actually use one. Camcorders that shoot onto DV tape are always cheaper than ones with other storage methods, and every film student I know (J is a film student in-story, right?) owns at least one.

I don't really care what'son the tapes b/c I believe Troy is going to provide some amazing footage and story for us. What I WANT is the rest of the car scene footage to see who was in the back of the car. Or some of Alex's backup camera footage to see if Jessica was the camerawoman.
