 		I have a feeling this might lead to a double update- the original Entry Jay was trying to upload, and another showing what happened last night/this morning/another #####-type video

Gosh I hope you're right!

I feel like that if it was going to be another multipound-style video, though, it would have been uploaded sometime last night, so I'm hoping... but not holding my breath.

I do agree that making the viewership try to figure out the password for Jay would be... out of character, I guess? Someone else has brought up the issue that if one of us WERE to figure out the password, unscrupulous viewers might do diabolical things with it. I do not suppose that Jay would want us guessing at his password for just that reason.

Also, ectobandit, man, that was a rad chart.

 		lmao @ people trying to figure it out. I'm 99% sure the way he typed "sleep now" has no secret code in it, he was just emphasizing how he was starting to feel sicker and more exhausted to the point where he couldn't focus (and then fall asleep). I don't think there's anything for us to do but wait.

Of course, I could be wrong. I'm not trying to dampen the theorizing, as this is what this forum is basically for, I'm just putting my two cents in.

 		I'm now convinced the typos were just for aesthetics and mean nothing of themselves.

Perhaps the final 'sleep now' tweet wasn't written by J informing us that he was going to sleep.

Perhaps it was written by someone else informing us that J was 'asleep now' or commanding him to 'sleep now'.

This is my theory as well. Or it was J's desperate attempt to relay a command that someone else was feeding him.

Just incase you aren't just joking, Laying/Lying is a commonly misspelled/misused word. I get them mixed up all the time. XP

 		All we know is that it's a video that was so shocking it had such an impact on Jay it's causing an almost mental breakdown. Whether that means it's his mind struggling against the amnesia or just the footage alone in the entry has something disturbing enough to cause an effect on Jay. After all, just viewing the tape in the camera was enough to summon Slendy to Alex, so either way, regardless of theories, I think we can all agree something big is coming...

All caps usually means I'm joking. It's definitely one of the most common mistakes in the English language. 'Lie' is an intransitive verb and 'lay' is a transitive verb.

^This. Which makes me even more excited.

 		I doubt that they actually did change the password to something we could guess, if they changed it at all. They're not just going to cause drama like this and leave the password as "slendermanisscary" or whatever we get from the videos.

Possibly. All I can get out of it is " Hai."

Someone suggested " Hail "?

It could also be a possible acronym, though for what, I don't know. "A" could stand for "Alabama", though that's just a theory and nowhere near concrete. More 'jelly' than 'concrete' to be honest.


Rearrange the letters to I. H. A. "I have Alex"? That's what I think it might say. You guys?


They've got James Iha! The answer must be in entry #33!

It could be the tapes shocked Jay and caused the headaches, but my money is on the video being so revealing that the Operator is intervening to prevent the upload by making Jay sick. This is rather more scary to me than anything than might be on the video as it means Jay is in a lot of danger right now.

I was thinking something along the same lines, that there's something on those tapes the Operator doesn't want us to see, or something that triggered the Operator to take action. Remember Entry 26?

 		I've seen Youtube cause a lot of bullshit, so my biggest fear is that Jay, or should I say Troy, really couldn't get into his account, and made up an in game reason really quick to buy himself some time.

And I don't think looking so closely into the typos is really going to get anywhere. Jay had a headache so he was typing like a drunk, I don't think there's a hidden message.

In my opinion, the only thing worth looking into here is what could have caused Jay to have such a bad headache in the first place.
