We've talked a lot about the banging in Jessica's room.
And the teleportation.

But I don't think we've come to the conclusion that the banging was coming from Masky's room. That when Jay knocked the first time, Masky switched it back, and when Jay knocked again, Jessica came to the door

The banging coming from "Masky's" room doesn't make any sense to me. Sounds like that don't travel through doorways, they travel through walls. It is more than likely that Jessica was unconsciously causing the banging noises, and has probably been sleepwalking.

He's good at keeping secrets from everyone except Masky, apparently.

It's subtle, but Jay does close his door in Entry 32 (2:25-2:2Cool. We don't get to see how far he closes it, but it does start out closed before Entry 33. Plus, does the camera freeze after he shuts it @ 2:30?


Yeah, I hear the "click" of the door now that you mention it. Jessica's door is still in a more open position in Entry 33 though. And yes, the camera certainly does freeze at one point.

Quote:
The bed is messed up from 32 to 33, however, the pillows are generally in the same positions (and the middle pillow has the same lumps in the top corners):

Due to the pillows on the bed, it appears to at least start out as the same room. That specific detail would be hard for Masky to replicate.

Strange that the recliner was opened, as that seems like a pretty specific (non-fight) action (and even if someone was using it, I can't imagine they could get out of the chair without closing it first).


Right. Thank you for taking the screen caps. As I said before, I'm more inclined to believe that this is evidence of J lapsing and not realizing exactly how much time has gone by between uploading 32 and filming 33. Jessica's room looks more "lived in" than it did previously.

Actually, its too bad I couldn't get a good view of the picture above the bed in 33. That would be a pretty surefire way to tell if the room was different or not, as I doubt the hotel would use identical pictures in every room.

Also, upon going back to the end of Entry 32 to check on the door closing, I noticed something I hadn't before. Once again, forgive me if this has been brought up already. Its very easy to miss:



Notice the lower left hand corner? The video is obviously tearing here, and we all know what that means. Shocked

The tearing plus Jessica's room being found in a different state than it was previously just really leads me believe that more time passed between uploading 32 and filming 33 than J thinks has passed (or that we're led to believe has passed). And that something happened to Jessica in the interim.

Also, did you guys come up with the name 'ToThePark' (Gingy I assume), or has it been mentioned elsewhere?


I'm pretty sure they came up with it here or over at SomethingAwful (although reading through their thread, I think I saw them come up with 'ToTheArbys' first, so that might've been thought up here?) I'd say JKat or Dray would probably have a bit more insight since they're a bit more on-top of things. Maybe PM one (or both) of them?

I don't know if they guy made it up, but in the ohgodhesatmywindow parody (http://www.youtube.com/user/ohgodhesatmywindow), the TTA rip-off is ToThePark.

IN that case, I stand by the fact its Masky's room, but concede to the fact its Jessica making the noise Wink

This happened earlier in the thread, 20-something or so.

Also, I'm no longer accepting the teleportation hypothesis. There are ALWAYS several sets of stairs in a hotel, the ones he went up in the earlier vids were probably just the ones nearest to his car.

I'm sure there are multiple sets of stairs, however, the hallway is completely different on each side, I have comparison pictures proving this. Earlier in the thread, I can't look them up ATM because I'm at work on my phone.

C'mon guys are we really gonna argue about the teleportation theory again?! There's proof on both sides of the argument and we could go on for days about how one side has to be wrong because *insert generic redundant argument here* but either way we won't know who's right, or even the relevance of this argument until it is acknowledged by Jay. I like hearing theories with teleportation and without it, but I don't like when people try and start the theory war. Can we just speculate in peace, regardless of what someone may or may not believe?

That is all...sorry for the redundant complaining Sad

THANK YOU. We're getting nowhere arguing.

Since we're talking about the knocking coming from... whoever's room, did anything come up about Jessica's coughing fit in the entry? Could mean Masky was at least close by, since she doesn't seem to be having those symptoms around Jay. Sorry if it's been fought over before, I never went through the thread for that entry.

EDIT: Had more to say than I thought.

Hey guys, sorry for jumping in here but I wanted to put out a theory I had since watching entry #33. I'll make a time-line to try and show what I think happened.

-J and Jessica meet during the 7 month gap and team up due to having similar circumstances, i.e. the Operator.
-They set up the hotel as a base of sorts and get adjoining rooms. They need to be close but they're not going to share a room.
-They film or find the tapes seen in the safe either before or after moving into the hotel and J puts them in his safe.
-He tells the combination to Jessica in case anything happens to him.
-Something happens and either the Operator or Totheark, I'm leaning more to Totheark, finds them.
-Totheark wants the tapes in the safe but can't open it without the combination and neither J or Jessica will tell him.
-Totheark or the Operator represses their memory so they can't remember working together and are thus strangers and no longer running.
-Totheark leaves behind hints to try and jog their memory so that they remember the combination. Specifically J as he has the noentery file and the safe.
-Totheark or the Operator start making Jessica sleepwalk or do things during the night.
-At some point Jessica writes down the combination to J's safe and turns the zero into an Operator symbol, kinda like Alex was making all those drawings of the Operator symbol.
-J and Jessica finally start talking together, but they decide to leave rather than stay. J even says that he's given up on the safe even though it's still locked.
-Totheark wants the tapes and for J and Jessica to not be working together so he kidnaps Jessica, and maybe plans to mind-wipe J again, when he sees that Jessica has written down the combination.
-Totheark decides that barging into J's room to try and open the safe will result in a fight and either J getting away or injury to himself so he leaves the combination in Jessica's room knowing that J will look in there and be curious enough to try the safe again.
-Totheark then attacks J when J pulls out the tapes to try and either scare J into leaving the tapes behind or incapacitating J.
-J is able to get away with the tapes via maglight to the face or incompetence on Totheark's part.

I hope that that's clear enough. I didn't want to write out a big paragraph so I wrote a semi-timelineish thing.

Thoughts? Comments?

ONe thought/comment:

I find it hard to swallow that Masky can hack into J's Twitter (bit of an OOG screwup on J's part, btw) but can't get his hands on a 4-digit-code.

Also, since he obviously has had access to Jessica's room, he could have picked that combination up anytime. And even if she wrote it at the very last second, he could have snatched it then and waited for J to just leave, then get the contents of the safe.

In any case, there's something incredibly stupid and unnerving about his repeated failures, so they better have thought of some truly ingenious and believable motivation for him. I'm almost at the point of accepting the "he just wants to cuddle" theory. It makes as much sense as anything else, really.
